EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

These retailers look like they might have a useable product of hip hop 
drums. I say this because the price is so high. Has anyone got the 
complete banginbeats 'no excuses' drum collection or the complete 
modernbeats/mpcsounds 'original gangsta and street platinum' drum 
collections?
Give me a review before I spend the cash.
Thanks,
Roman Pirie.

I've purchased a couple of kits from ModernBeats. Originally, I had 
to spring for their Vintage Drums collection, which is very good. 
Since then, I've tried a couple of their Hip-Hop kits and they are 
decent.

The ordering process is slightly annoying for Mac users. Apparently, 
they have some ultra-paranoid Windows based system, and first-time 
Mac customers have to call in. Return Mac customers still need to 
wait for a special download link via email the next day (no late 
night download-able inspirations for you). But it works.

My only usability complaint is that they provide completed kits for 
several samplers (Battery, EXS24, etc.), good good, but the 
individual sounds are given cryptic names so it's hard to cherry-pick 
and build your own.

Can you give me a url for the site that sells these sounds? Thanks.

When in doubt, just add .com to the company name. :)
