Jazz drums where to buy?

[clruwe]

So... I just spent all my savings in upgrading my old setup for this new movie project. So I bought the Vienna Special edition and the extended bundle. The VE pro and VI pro. I sit down to compose and I realize I don't have a "jazz" double bass on the library or a drum kit. So I come to the website to purchase them additionally, only have a few pounds left at this point. The double bass went without a hitch, but for the life of me I can't find jazz drums anywhere...? Are they available? I saw them being used in one of the tutorials but I can't seem to find it in the products pages. I appreciate the help! C.

Unfortunataly Jazz Drums has been available only a short time as an additional gift of vsl for purchasing Vienna Suite - AKAIK. But very often I've read the question you did here and sometimes it seems to me vsl is having in mind to make it available regulary. But I don't know! And I don't know, why they didn't, cause the Jazz - Drums are outstanding like their jazzy upright bass. Try to contact the custom service, maybe they have an idea what you can do to get the drums. Sorry to say...

Thanks for the reply! It seems absurd that they wouldn't provide/sell this very useful library. Do they expect me to go to their competitors? That's just weird! I rather have everything in Vienna... It's just easier to work with. Thanks for the advice, I will contact support! C.

I suppose they hold them back to have to offer some rewards for loyal customers - and the Jazz Drums are really a goody! Otherwise some hinnies would like to vociferate about (why do they go towards jazz, they are on the classic department or something like such fooleries)

[clruwe]

Since we are at it: can you recommend some good (easy to use) jazz drums? Vienna type quality? Thanks!

Hi,

The Jazz Drums will be available as a separate download product within the next months!

Best,

Paul

So clruwe, I highly recommend the vsl jazz drums for download! :-) For the real j a z z drum sound - (specially brushes but even the stick samples) - it's simply the best - IMHO! (btw the demo by Christian Unterberger with piano/uprightbass/jazzdrums doesn't exist anymore? Couldn't find it - Star Wars only in roompack II demos for MIR, even not in user demos...??) Would be a pity!! Frank

Thank you very much Paul and Frank! I like the idea of getting the VSL jazz drums, but depending on how long it takes to be released I'm not sure I can wait. I'm on a tight deadline and I need to have everything synchronized by the end of July. I could patch it up in the meanwhile using Sampletank, but I'm going to need some professional sounding library before then. So... If you can still recommend a good library I'd appreciate. Kontakt or otherwise... Many thanks! C.

I would contact the vsl custom service. If it gets to official sell next time, they will help you immediatly I suppose. For Jazz - Drum I don't know any other stuff deeply sampled and with this sound (and for the price). For pop/rock try out the new Drumasonic lib for K 4, oherwise abbeyroad drums. But these are not for J a z z ! Cheers Frank

[clruwe]

Thanks Frank! I'll keep them on the side just in case. I couldn't see if either of them had brushes, it didn't appear so. I'll contact support and ask them about it. Thanks for the advice! C.
