The only thing better than killer live drums is giving you the option to use your own sample libraries and sounds which is why Phil also offers Custom MIDI drums.
Wouldn’t you rather have a sampled drum track played by a real player instead of attempting to program it? Or worse still, using repeating loops?
Drum performance subtleties, such as grace notes and ruffs for example, are very hard to program in a natural fashion. Nor do you want to end up with programmed drum performances that are impossible for a real drummer to have played! At least a drummer with 2 arms and 2 legs! This is a common mistake made by midi programmers who create tracks that can’t be played live by a real drummer. Custom midi drum tracks offer you the flexibility of using any sound you want want from your own sample libraries.
