The raw sounds mean that you can mix them in any style you want and they'll sound great (if you're experienced with drum mixing), so the possibilities are endless. Personally, I'm a big fan of SD, as I like programming intricate drum parts and I enjoy mixing drums. There are mixed presets in Superior, but I find those a bit lacking, as they only are processed with SD's internal processing. The drums are also significantly more deeply sampled and detailed, and come with a more diverse selection of drums and cymbals. There are extremely detailed microphone and bleed control options, which gives you a huge range of mixing potential.
Superior Drummer sounds come totally raw and unprocessed, exactly how your drums would come from recording session.
In the Grooves tab, in the list of midi-groove libraries from Platinum Samples, Groove Monkee and Steven Slate Drums Grooves, where there are orange folders with an exclamation mark, click Add Database. EZ Drummer also has an extensive loop and song arranging system (the aforementioned Song Creator), which is perfect for those who just want to get a drum part in their song and move on quickly. After that open Superior Drummer 3, click: Settings> Advanced> Restore MIDI Database.
EZ Drummer sounds come mixed out of the box so that you can drop them right into your mix and move along.
