I wonder if sales have dramatically slowed down therefore it's finally time for S3 that seems like it should have been released 2 years ago? I think Toontrack might have been satisfied simply milking EZD2 for all it's worth.and IMO it's worth a lot for the money. I too would like the freedom to just use the program without the base kits, but I would guess, for promotional purposes, they will include something new just to show off the possibilities. I would be shocked if I see anything like that going from S2 to S3. So I am hoping it is one of those 'free' pieces of software, or at least cheap pieces, and its the kits that cost money.Many years ago my cross-grade price from DFH Superior Drummer to S2 was $50. Basically I am happy with this kit so I don't need any of the base kits that will come with superior 3 (probably). My main concern is that I don't want to spend a lot of money.

hi-hat and other things sometimes just sound off and require a lot of tweaking of the midi file. And as mentioned before, I hate that the midi files from ez drummer, never quite translate to superior. Ez drummer kinda does some of this but I find its just not seamless. 'softer', 'harder', 'busier', and whatever else.

EZdrummer has some great stuff but it is still quite clunky in what it does. I really really hope it has some next gen loop, and drum section building. So I am hoping it is one of those 'free' pieces of software, or at least cheap pieces, and its the kits that cost money. I have no idea what superior 3 is, but my hope is that, if it has all the plugins built in, they update all the presets to this next generation. A massive library that I guarantee was built with superior 3 in mind. I bought progressive foundry not that long ago. So the later kits would all have its tech in mind. Superior 3 must have been in development for a very long time, even if on the back burner. I'm sure they will have legacy models in there and if there is any update at all required to use whatever is 'Revolutionary' in the new Superior 3, I guarantee the last year or so of kits will easily update to whatever that thing is.
