I have been in cover bands for a good 20 years. Recently I am doing the Duo thing with drum loops and recorded bass lines over that and then me playing live on guitar and singing. I use Screenblast ACID 4.0 to record on with my Laptop. I do the Rock classic and Blues with a bit of country. I own the, "Loud grooves for rock and pop, Drum werks Vol III, Pure country and the latest version, Vol 5 and 6. I am absolutly overwhelmed with the great variety of loops and fills available. and what a price to boot!

These loops were very much worth the money spent. I have tried the competitions loops and just put them on the shelf. Actually made great party coasters eventually LOL.

Reviewer Background
:
I've been writing music now for 2 years after a 20 year hiatus.
I like intense guitar music , Gilmore style.
I use Sonar 3 and the softsynths that comes with it.
I have a pair of V6 KRK monitors, which I believe to be excellent, but I am cramped in a corner and don't have good spacing for speaker imaging. I use a SB Audigy 1 soundcard. I use sony MDR 7505 headphones extensively. Base reproduction is less thasn correct when mixed through these phones and then played back on a car or home stereo. But I like them just the same.

I have been using Drumwerks 3 for around 3 months. (under $20.00 incl shipg) I find that I can almost always find the drum style I am looking for and some good fills. The package could use a few more fills in some paticular areas, but there's still plenty to work with. I find I add very little eq to the drum tracks. I add bottom end to compensate for my system. I'm impress with the quality of Drumwerks 3 enough that, I have purchased more of their products. They are less than half the price of some of their compediters drum loops I have purchased, but I still, always reach for Drumwerks 3 first.
This library has some nice blues, pop rock, a little country, some rock. It is a versitile library. A deal at twice the price.
