Looks good.

Nice price too. Like the way it is laid out.

It would be great, maybe, except for a little (major) problem with K3: MIDI delay. I cannot use K3 to play anything because the MIDI delay is too great: equivalent to using MME MIDI drivers.

Good for K2 if it will work in that. I think I'll stick with Superior.

ARe you using midi hardware or Midi over LAN?

Never heard about the K3 Midi delay issue. Do they know and are working on it?

I am still in K2, so I haven't seen it, though I did get my Christmas K3 upgrade and Komplete 5 upgrade.

Is this documented somewhere ... on another forum ... like the Kontakt forum or something?

Thanks,

Someone else having the same issues. Plays fine in standalone, but delays in MIDI in N3 or SX3. I'm checking for any problems on my end.

Am I missing something here???
"SSD VIRTUAL INSTRUMENT
The SSD Virtual Instrument, powered by Kontakt Player2,

Do you find anything lacking with Superior 2 ??

Im thinking of getting SSD 3.0 and S2.0 with the Nashville kit. I think that would cover my drums real well. I have Addictive Drums as well

Superior 2 is awesome, as was/is the original.

If this is powered by K2 player, then it's all good. K2 Player works fine in all cases.

Looking into the WDM settings I found that Sonar was set to WDM already while Kontakt was set to Asio.
switched sonar to Asio and my timing issue was fixed!

Thanks for the help!

I hope this helps

I see the SSD's are mapped for the Roland kits which could be very handy if you have one especially for the hats.

I hope this helps

1. I don't use Sonar
2. I had already checked to make sure I was using ASIO, because as we all know, Cubendo likes to make it's own mind up about these things from time to time.

AFAIK I have no issues on my system, but I'm still looking out for "hidden" issues.

Well, I went and started a new blank project lkast night to test this out. Everything worked as it is supposed to.

I'll have to check that other project out to see where the problem lies.

For now, K3 is a-ok.

I went looking around as well and found that most users aren't having any midi issues.

That is good. I like these drums.

I own SSD 2 Platinum, and I heard that SSD 3 was due to be released but I am surprised that I was not notified of the upgrade. Looks like I can upgrade to SSD 3 for only $60US, which looks like a good deal to me.

I am a big Drumagog fan, but the new version opens up some pretty cool new options to use his samples beyond just sample replacement.

I was an early adopter of Slate drums and get free updates for life. :icon30: Need to put in my order.
