As an example, my default kit contains the 7 toms of the Pearl kit. However, as they were recorded in place in a kit, in one of the 5 positions, by default the extra toms will appear in in the sound field at the same L/R position as one of the 5 standard tom positions unless you manually change their pan position in the mixer. Therefore, if you want to use more than 5 toms in a kit (or more than 6 cymbals) you will have to add them as extra instruments, appearing in the top left corner. The same goes for the cymbals that are recorded in one of 6 positions left to right. The Superior 3 factory kit toms are allt recorded in one of 5 fixed tom positions – 3 rack and 2 floor (if a preset contains fewer, ghost images of the empty slots are shown in the graphics). My go at an explanation (correct me if I’m off somewhere): When I select the default Ludwig Default Concert kit it only loads with 3 rack toms and 2 floor toms, rather than the 10 toms you mention John. The Ludwig 70s 3-ply Concert 10 rack toms and 2 floor toms The Ludwig 70s 3-ply Classic 5 rack toms and 2 floor toms The Premier Genista 2 rack toms and 2 floor toms The Yamaha Beech Custom 3 rack toms and 3 floor toms The Pearl Masterworks 4 rack toms and 2 floor toms The Ayotte Classic 3 rack toms and 2 floor toms The Gretsch has got 1 rack tom and 1 floor tom The kits are sampled with different amount of toms: Though the standard kit setup is 3 rack toms and 2 floor toms, you can add more and custom map them.

Nolly favorite superior drummer kit
