Mt Power Drum Kit Crack
A big thumbs-down from me.I'm not surprised they gave up trying to make any money out of this because the quality is mediocre, and I would imagine the demands for a refund were appearing in droves. They claim they've set up the eq correctly, but it's just plain wrong, and the inbuilt compressor controls do nothing. The mapping feature in 'Settings' is all over the place too, whereby the octaves in midi are referenced wrongly, eg.
The left crash is, by default, mapped to C#2, but it plays at C#3, and the rim-shot (Side-Stick) plays at C#2 but is mapped at C#1. My manual adjustments proved just as chaotic.The snare drum is useless. It sounds like someone has removed the snare (the loose spring that straps on underneath), which ends up making it sound like a tom with too much high-mids applied. As for the crash cymbals, they are just lightweight and limp.The floor tom has no depth, sounding far too shallow, so I had to give the 125hz band a massive 18dB boost (all the way up with the Acoustica EQ) in order to get it sounding anywhere near decent.The kick drum sounds a bit powder-puff, with far too much high frequency content around the 8khz band that reveals a metallic click sound, and putting it though a compressor just brings this out even more.
To get it sounding reasonably okay I have to kill the 8khz band completely and give some boost at 63khz. So much for this being correctly equalized already!Unfortunately, this free download is stuck with only one (lame) drum kit.My conclusion is that I'm far better served by the Acoustica drum kit selection (I have Mixcraft 6 Studio), because with some applied EQ, compression and reverb I can at least achieve a nice big authentic sound. The hi-hat open and close effects may prove useful, but I haven't tried those properly yet - I'll try playing around with them when a future project needs it.
I was very happy when I read about the MT Power Drum Kit! It looked like a scaled down EZ drummer, and I knew the MT could save me a lot of time arranging drums.But, I too think that the drum kit sounds harsh and thin, but I liked the simplicity of editing.So, I downloaded Kontakt 5 (free), which has a better drum kit (pop drums), and I simply dragged over my MT Drum Kit´s midi arrengements to a new midi track where I had Kontakt 5´s pop kit.Now the drums sounds far better, and I still have the editing possibilities that MT Drums gives me!
