For me, it's quite the same I am using velocities, in order to humanize the strokes as much as possible, especially in respect to the actual musical context - for instance, check out this intro:
https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Deftones-Style/ - see how the drums are growing to raise the tension? This is an example |

I had really hard times trying to make EZ drummer sound real. I think that the secret is work with velocities and humanizing a bit the tempo, avoiding precise quantization, using external reverb and sometimes even adding extra snares and kicks. Nowadays I'm using SSD 3.5 and I find its samples much realistic.

Thank you everyone! I will play around with it when I get the chance to. I guess the key is to think like a drummer would.

This is an example Thank you Cosmin. The internet is really slow for me at the moment, so I will listen to the Deftones style in a few days hopefully Ben is right here I am a big fan of drumming and I consider the drummer as being more important than a guitarist in a lot of situations So, for me, I guess it was a natural thing to experiment with various touches and dynamics in drum writing, simply because I love drums Why not pick your favorite drummers and learn from them: - styles - groove examples - breaks And try to see the dynamics in their playing as this really makes the difference Saw this post as soon as I posted mine I will try and look at a few drummers. Maybe I'll start Danny Carey from Tool, he is one of my favourites |
