looks nice. we'll see how it sounds.
They mentioned being mostly done with it... but we'll see how they tune it all up.

also... each tool is worth its business. Why would you use only microtonic? :D

yeah of course... i just meant that IMHO microtonic has sort of been the most versatile game in town for a while as far as VST drum synths go, which is surprising to me since it's been almost 5 years since its first release. there are some other solid contenders (waldorf attack, drumatic) but almost everything else i've seen is sample-based, or only does kick drums, etc. certainly using the best bits of each is the right approach.
supply and demand, i guess, more people willing to pay for yet-another-compressor-or-reverb-plugin than for drum synths.
chris posted a test track here if you want to check out the sound. obviously pretty tough to judge from one loop. the crash at the end has a unique tonal character to it.

that tonal character on the crash sounds more like the tape delay they have.
