Well yes, you’re correct — you can find toms that don’t ring, but for me, that kind of defeats the purpose. Might as well just make a generic, no-name pack without all the bells and whistles. If I want to use a Sonor kit, I want to use a Sonor kit — not mix toms from four different manufacturers and libraries just to get the right tom sound, just to exaggerate my point. And what about those who don’t want to buy a bunch of expansions just to find toms that don’t ring?

Cool I will try that as well. Thanks for the input.

Cool thanks for the swift reply, I’m quite new to mixing so I’m learning something new every day.
Yes agree and I think in general they’re quite good at updating, however I don’t knowhow often they read these posts though.

I have encountered the same issue with Sup.dr.3 now and support the notion here. As they have some muted snares it should be the same option for toms and I think in general the tom samples lack some major punch in Superior drummer 3. It’s like the toms are hit very softly even on “hard” hits/velocity. I managed to get some punchy toms with EZX ROCK DRUMS, but other than that I think it’s the same issue with most of the EZX expansion as well.
Other than that it’s great of course, lovely piece of software!
What’s the best solution for reducing/removing ringy toms mix wise? Low cut and/or compression?
