i know this has been a classic since a lot of time, but on modern times do you think still worth it as your main tool for drums on electronic music? thanks

This would never be your main drum tool for electronic music, this is Acoustic drums
  Member 2.02.2022 127

lol.... this is absolutely a main tool for electronic music. Its incredibly great for drum n bass and jungle. As well as many electronic genres like house etc. It does have electronic kits but not only that real drums you can manipulate to sound incredibly diverse.

Many electronic music producers use addictive drums often. So yes, this could absolutely be an electronic producers main drum tool. And it is for many people.

This is an acoustic drum library, so it is not primarily used in electric music, but I understand what you are asking.
To answer your question, a library that is not a cheap sounding source like, for example, UVi or HALion, but just a direct sampling of vintage drum machines or something, even if they are 10 years old, can still be used effectively today. Of course, a library that was created through a bad sounding DI box or AD converter is out of the question...
More important than the library's age is that it be used with as much new, high-quality plugins (includes emulations for vintage equipments) of saturation, distortion, dynamics, EQ, reverb, or delay as possible.
I myself still use a library that I sampled on my own drum machine 20 years ago, and even though the samples are the same, the sound quality is on another level between the beats I did 20 years ago and the beats I do today using a modern set of plug-ins.
I hope this will be of some help to you.

you can use a drum sampler (battery, groove agent, tal-drum, etc) with any samples you want. There're plenty of them on internet.
  Member 3.05.2020 1 31

thanks all for replying, i understand now i wrote it confusing. I know AD are acoustic drums but these days we have a trend in some electronic music genres where are combined synth drums with acoustic ones.
My question was oriented on if it is better to learn to use this tool as primary one for acoustic needs, or superior drummer, or if kontakt libraries or even sample packs really well recorded are the right spot with all the advances we saw since these tools were released at first versions. Maybe what i want to undersantd is which advantages are given by this tool because i notice that is really well accepted and recognized by the producers community.
  Member 2.02.2022 127

Yup, you're right. I prefer addictive drummer especially since their latest update really modernized the UI. I dont know a log about superior drummer but addictive drums will absolutely fit your needs.

As with v2.5.3 pkg-file has to be opened with installer.app form
HD/System/Library/CoreServices.
Installation takes quite a long time - so don't interrupt.

Thanx a lot. It works great without issues on iMac 27 / 2020 intel as standalone or VST3 instrument in Cubase Pro 14 on mac sequoia 15.3.1 .

You can install it over the older HCiSO version 2.5.3. No uninstall needed.
It needs a bit longer to install it. You have to give the permission (security im macOS) to install it. Don't stop it. It needs a bit time.

One of the best releases this yeah.
The installprocess could'nt be easier.
Thanx
