I write hard rock songs, and I have to say I'm disappointed with the new kits, particularly the snares. To make it simple, it seems that the drummer did not hit the pieces nearly as hard as they did on, say, The Rock Warehouse expansion. I can't convincingly place a new snare into a song of mine, and it's for reasons other than that particular snare not being a right fit - it's purely because the maxed hits are very tame. Therefore, I'll have to stick to the Rock Warehouse expansion for snares and hats. The new snares have a great tone, but they were not hit with hard rock tunes in mind, apparently. There's no hard crack/whip at even the maxed out velocities.
