It's defeatable. In one case it IS part of the same itself (BFD) ...they just switch to the sample set they made without the snare drum there (or I suppose they might've removed the snares)...the other (Superior) there's bleed levels of every mic in every other mic. Every hit is 30 samples or whatever that equates to. So, the kick is recorded in every single mic they have up at the "correct" place in time.
There's a fine line in drum sampling between hyper reality...and making flaws just to make flaws. I have just always started from "give me real and let me 'improve it' how I see fit"...
But, there's something to be said for Addictive (or the Logic Drum Kit Designer is similar) approach. Call up kit-sounds like record...make music. Tiny, too--those Sound City kits I bought for Addictive total like 1.2gb or something. BFD used more RAM BUFFER 15 years ago. Different tools-different jobs.
It's always seemed odd to me that you're committed to eDrums...YET...couldn't be bothered to use sounds that make them sound AND PLAY more like a real drum kit.

We can only purchase another drum module - - the Alesis is at least some steps above ROmpler Kurzweil ...
The VS 2480 seems to be still stubborn -- loading VST samples via the SCSI port just fails --
Tried using the Garage Band drums -- just mini out headphones from a iPad -- but not experienced enough to tap my fingers on a screen ..
Had two new clients last month -- they were way blown away by the E DRUM quality ---
Without a A to B exploration ~~ right in the studio environment @ that moment in time -- no one will suggest otherwise.
Now :: maybe if it didn't take hours to == MIDI out of my ALESIS module - to the PC interface -- load up EZ drummer ( get it to read that MIDI from the pads talking ) -- send a stereo track over via the headphone jack to the VS ---
Thanks, CJO! I like to set up additional room mics when able (if there's not a ton of amps blasting away simultaneously) to blend in or out, depending on how the mix/song develops.

Wish I could get back to that style of recording ( listen above ) -- we are almost all DI ~~~ along with the E drums tracking , these days... just so much easier/faster to record for clients ,,, and we keep the neighbors happy ..
With rubber tips on our mesh heads -- and the plexi -- we can track live === with little bleed of an acoustic ..
Very cool tune, CJO. Dig the dude yelling at the beginning. Is there a Yamaha SPX-90 in there?
I've been lucky to not have any complaining neighbors yet when it comes to live bands recording.
I'm not sure i'd be able to accurately capture an electronic kit and make it sound natural or like something other than an "effect kit" of the tune, which could be just what's needed for the particular client/song.
Now, I do have a Drumbrute and that'thang is awesome!

I believe there was the "standard" SPX in rack back then -- didn't venture into the engineer's booth much ...
Just remember he got our signals up for a levels test, as we played one through -- but, it was all in one big room mainly ( I had some baffles around me ) -- so you can hear me yelling to start "take 11" A big joke
Said he was ready to track --- And we said :: just let it roll -- never more than one take with this band ... He had to drop down from 7 1/2 ips to 3 3/4 >> to save tape at the end ..
These were the tracks ~sans the vocal>> that I transferred to the 2480 in the 90's
