Along the lines of posts like Phil Collins' Drum Kit c.1980, something I’d love to see added to Jamstix is a selection of drum kits that would be recognizable to those of us who aren’t drum geeks (e.g., I have no idea what “Mapex” or “Slingerland” are) and are all set up (including effects—especially the compression, which seems to be a whole art in itself when it comes to drums) to use as a ready-to-go submix in a project.

I don’t know if I’m representative of your target market or not: I’m someone experimenting with songwriting, trying to produce mixes that get across the ideas I hear in my mind... “song demos,” were I yet on the professional scale at all. I don’t expect to replace “real” musicians, but I want my recordings to be as transparent as possible, in the sense that they provide a window through which to hear the songs. I know little about drums, except that some of my songs really need them; Jamstix is almost always going to invent a better drum part than I can write.

I want Jamstix (Studio) to be my only drum VST: simpler is better when dealing with what one doesn’t understand at a deep level. There’s a lot of help (and a lot to learn) in Jamstix for setting up rhythmic patterns and performance styles, but I still feel rather adrift in getting the “sound” of drums submixed and ready to add to a project.

(My guess is that Jamstix already has enough drum samples to do this well, but that the current effects aren’t up to the task... making this not a small request. I also realize that it’s possible that what I’m suggesting doesn’t actually make sense to someone who understands drums and mixing enough to know what it would entail.)

I would also be very interested in some "production ready" kits. I love the way Jamstix writes drum parts, I just wish I knew how to make the drums sound like a professional mixing engineer did it.

Multi-out + Transient Master (from NI) + proper application of reverb on the snare and toms? See the video from YouTube below.

Granted, he's focusing primarily on the vocals for the application of reverb but you get the idea.
