Addictive Drums Presets
Yeah, that's a drag but the impression I get is they are a smaller company and AD was their first release so I'm assuming that this release is their jump into the big leagues. Probably a little more future ready than the first and perhaps they'll have some workarounds for this problem once the dust settles.
I am really impressed with AD and they were actually my first choice when I was looking for a drum program but then I found out about BFD and wanted the extra routing options. Still I'm using AD in my current project and I can see using it on more stuff in the future. Djoni How do I upgrade to AD2? Is there a discount for X3P users? I'm assuming you get AD1 to AD2 upgrade price because X3 came with the full version (I may be wrong). Also apparently if you bought X3 recently (within the upgrade grace period XLN is offering to new AD1 customers) you'll get a free upgrade. See the thread I posted above for Andrew's post.
Not only does Addictive Drums have a Preset for the DM10 drum set which allows for easy setup. Alesis DM10 - Setup With Addictive Drums Gain Staging 101.
Although he does not provide details. Oh and just to buy the upgrade I'm assuming you'd just go through XLN's store thingie via the account you set up when you registered the version that came with X3.
A little older thread but this may help some who are wondering about presets from old AD versions. Or sharing AD kit setups. I was online and found some great AD1 presets (ex. Search for ' The Buddha Rats') Download and saved as.ADPreset (ex.

TBRRockBox.ADPreset) Opened up AD2 - selected the kit tab Drag the AD1 preset file from a windows explorer session onto AD2 - VOILA! Kit and all settings are there Then hit save! To save it in your 'My Presets' bin of presets within AD2 and as an.AD2Preset in windows (C: users.) Yeah!
Now if everyone who has AD1 or AD2 saved just one preset and shared it with everyone here. So I contacted XLN Audio support and I got the following response.
Kind of a bummer. I thought Platinum included a free update??? Sent: Hey, I do have one more question. How do I load the AD1 kit pieces into AD2?
I have songs using these and would like to keep working on them with the new interface. Response: In answer to your question you cannot load in AD1 kitpieces into AD2 directly as AD2 is a different program from AD1. But you can buy the upgrade to AD2 from us which converts all your AD1 content for use in AD2. More details on the upgrade can be found here: Anyone else.

Packs give you a strong advantage since you can choose between a lot of presets and listen to how they sound in context. For example, a preset may sounds good when heard alone but may not suits to the track you’re working on. That’s why it is highly recommended to go for the packs. But whatever you choose, needless to say they’re all optimized and tweaked for Metal.
You are not left alone when you download these metal presets. You’ve probably heard a preset that rocks and then sucks when you try to use it with your own midi file(s). That’s why each download comes with a quick and super easy PDF guide to get the most out of the presets. See also the Vids/Tutos Page or Check out the Who makes these metal presets? I’m Pascal Moraux, Metal guitarist, vocalist, composer and songwriter. Born in Belgium on February the 5th 1976, I grew up listening to both Classic Heavy Metal and Extreme Metal. Since the nineties, I’ve released 5 records with the following bands (see below) and toured/gigged in Europe with bands like Immolation, Krisiun, Emperor, Enthroned, Bal-Sagoth, Nocturnal Breed to name a few.
My Bands: -Ex-Zardens (Blackened Death Metal, from 2009 to 2014).Ex-Moribund (Black Metal, 1996 – 1999) Over the years, I developped a passion for Film Music. I founded in January 2016, a company that offers mostly material for trailers. Beside the typical musician activities I’m also a self-taught sound engineer and producer and have mixed Albums and EPs for my own bands as well as for others. During all those years I worked with almost every vst, vsti, rtas plugins available on the market. Being a sound engineer gives you a strong advantage. You not only know how the softwares work but you especially know how the presets are supposed to sound. Knowing how the frequencies affect the listening is paramount to make good presets.
After all, making presets is very close to mixing, especially when it comes to drums. That’s why metalpresets.com offers presets suitable for every Metal genres.
