You will find a lot of posts on this topic here and on gearspace. EZDrummer is massively more preprocessed, easy to grasp and implement - so much so that several people I know first got SD3, but then still use EZDrummer. I would also look into whether you really need all the features and the gazillion of GBs samples that come with SD3 - in my opinion, this only makes sense if you really intend to spend a lot of time programming your drums as they were real recorded drums. (and not just midi files) that adjust to DAW tempo. Good brushes are hard to find in sample libs - straight ahead does this very well, because they have recorded loops for the brushes, hihats etc. Also bought the Toontrack Jazz expansions, which I am disappointed with, altough otherwise I like EZDrummer a lot.

Most of the kits come with brushes, rods and mallets articulations in addition to stick sounds. There are 25 snares and 16 kick drums, and toms range from 6” to 20”. The pack features seven kits, from bread-and-butter sets like Pearl, Yamaha and Gretsch to more exotic kits from Ayotte and a couple of Ludwigs. The samples are rich and detailed with up to 25 velocity layers per instrument. Of course, this is an enormous download which would have taken more than 1,000 hours on my Internet connection, so thankfully, an SSD ‘hard copy’ version is also available. That’s almost 15 times the size of SD2 (19 GB). SD3 “ships” with more than 230 GB of raw, unprocessed sounds. One click, and you’re behind the kit and in the studio with SD3. SD3 is a standalone software product, and no longer requires a host such as the Solo product required to run SD2. Here are some of the features which make this VST offering a new benchmark. Last month’s release of Superior Drummer 3 may be a bit overdue, but was certainly worth the wait. 10 Things To Love About SD3 digitalDrummer | November 2017
