EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

Hello people ...

I am about to start my collection of sampling discs and I am finding the
task fairly daunting.
Also ...living out in the sticks I cannot listen to every disc on the market
at a gigantic outlet, in fact the nearest one is some 2000+ km from here..

So this is my dilema ... which drum loop cds to get ...?
I want to be able to produce tracks without using a live drummer, if that's
possible, in the pop/hip hop/rock style mix.


So far titles like Skippy's big bad beats look good to me, as do Burning
Grooves and Liquid Grooves (Although it seems a little light on loops) ....

Do you guys have any good advice on good sounding discs that provide good
value for money...?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

Paul
