With a few notable exceptions, most sampled sound libraries leave me less than convinced. In addition, all of the MIDI was recorded exclusively using the SDX sounds and all of its articulations, giving you a vivid display of all its rich detail in the context of different fitting performances." The MIDI library also features a collection of grooves and patterns specifically designed for use with the brushes, mallets, timpani and gong as well as the hand and finger sounds included. Inspired by the like of Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, Kiss, The Rolling Stones and The Beatles, this MIDI will take you through thunderous onslaught of classic rock, the jazz-inspired psychedelic grooves to the straight-on pounding and in-your-face rock beats. This is what Toontrack say "Just like the drum sounds, the main portion of the MIDI circles in on the era of Eddie's career that stretches from the full-on rock years of the sixties through the seventies. Along with the huge library of kits is the MIDI library of grooves. What makes this library so great is not only the sound, anyone working in modern music production knows that even the best sound with a bad performance sounds mediocre at best. BUT, after just 5 minutes of me trying out Legacy of Rock, it propelled my creative juices into writing a song idea. The litmus test I place on any product made for creatives is this does it inspire me to want to write a great song? Sadly, fewer things claiming to inspire me do that these days. I'd go as far as saying buy Superior Drummer 3 so that you can own this library. Legacy of Rock is probably the closest thing most of us will ever get to having world-class drums on our tracks. There's two versions of this review, the long one and the short one. However, a drum library designed around this made me wonder if it was too narrow for my range of recording needs… I was wrong. I like a rock track as much as the next person, I was alive for many of the albums mentioned in the advertising material and if not I’ve certainly heard them.
When I first saw the Legacy of Rock SDX for Toontrack's Superior Drummer 3, I wondered if, even with the iconic Eddie Kramer lending his name and decades of recording experience to it, it would be something for me.
