I tried the free kit, and there was only a handful of e-drum set presets, and it was NOT going to be easy to get my set to correctly register. It wasn't just questionable, it was an absolute turn off. The biggest problem with SSD5 for me was the interface. But drums I feel cater more to Metal, Heavy Rock and Classic Rock. So anyone who has experience with both or just owns SD3 and can answer this, should I pay twice as much for SD3 over AD2? Is it adjustable enough to get some really fat and dry tones from the kits? Cymbals I'm ok with. Everything seems to have a lot of resonance. Kits that would be good for pop, indie, folk or general alternative music. I just have yet to hear a really solid set of controlled tones. Many of the kits sound "great" and are kits I would gladly play just for practice or in real life. However, my concern is really in the aesthetics of the drums. Also, there appears to be more cohesion with how all of the pieces work together. I know that it is packed full of modifications, has incredible sound quality, amazing levels of detail and articulation, tons of kit, snare and cymbal options, as well as snare on/off, mallet and brush options included. Superior Drummer 3 is far and away THE VST that people talk about and recommend. Sound wise, AD2 fits my tastes a bit more (not metal or heavy rock). These pieces also do not need to be selected at once. That pack allows you to personally select 6 ADPacks, 6 MIDI Packs and 6 Kit pieces. Right now I can pick up a copy of Addictive Drums 2: Custom XL for $200.
