csDrummer allows you to achieve same result as if you were recording a drum session in a real studio. Instruments are triggered by MIDI messages either real-time or from MIDI file. An audio stream formed for each instrument is routed to its own channel, thereby simulating a microphone record. Software uses sound morphing technology for interpolation between two layers of an instrument sampled with maximum and minimum hit force. This brings a much more realistic effect than switching between a number of separate layers. Each hit passes through humanizing filters which alter its force, morphing and time offset. Theese filters give an effect of a real human playing a drum set.

I listened to the sample given on the website. Not convinced at all I am, it sounds like a drum machine. I think if you want to advertise your stuff especially because of these specific points (humanizing, etc), it's important your samples sound like what you claim you can deliver (when I say you, it's not you studio32 :) ). I don't think it did. But I have not tried to fiddle around with it so I cannot say more.

Maybe you (and with you it could be or not you Thorgal ;) ) should try this with 'the best free available sound samples' > G&S Custom Work Drum kit Sample Library 1.0
