@@AP02112then I'd be interested to see Portnoy play... Let's say.... Illumination Theory, and adding this so called "soul" into the song. IF Portnoy can respect all the orchestration in the song as is; not butcher it up "Portnoy style".
@@off-beatdrummer, but he will try to add his flair to the songs. There's a YT drummer out there, Glen Monturi, who covers a bunch of artists, including DT, and the fanboys in the comments talk about how he gives the songs that "Portnoy feel." He nailed it if by feel they mean sloppy, horribly thought-out fills.
Beside the fact that their intro price should be the final price tag and not 10 bucks above a whole sdx this drum libary is one of the best drum vsts i have ever played....am blown away. Very well made
Doctor Mike is the man who will help all us mortals to play better and for me as an amateur drummer be able to explain the hows and whys. While we are called rhythm keepers I always play melodically for the song. Go Doc!
It's funny because just a week or two ago I mentioned to ML Sound Labs that they need to do a signature Mangini kit. Not knowing this was a thing. Man, this is cool
@@johnnelson4386 Yep, that's what I though ... That does not mean it don't like it. He is the hard progressive metal guy. Something like Symphony X or Circus Maximus. He is incredible fast and precise. But ... damn, I really liked the Portnoy stuff. And the Grammy was not just because of the drumming. There are four other fantastic, outstanding musicians. Songwriting, arrangement, meldodies. Without DreamTheater ... You know ...
Hi, in the GUI you can see a 3mm reference Brass snare. But that one is not shown here. Does someone know if they actually recorded the reference Brass snare? Thanks a lot.
DT with Portnoy wasn't sloppy. MP is a fabulous drummer. Mike Mangini and his incredible knowledge opens a wider range for DT technicially, but he was not really involved into the songwriting.
I still can’t believe Dream Theater cut him loose. He is without a doubt one of the most incredible musicians that has ever lived. Kudos to you Mike!
agree so very very much 👍🏼
He is one of the best drummers i ever seen and heard. I think DT want the " old way" back. The songwriting, the spirit. Older men feel this need.
He's a machine but he doesn't add the soul to DT that Portnoy does. It's time to change.

A first class professional right here!
Mike, you're the man.... let's go !!!
My MANGINI’s new album is phenomenal. I absolutely love it. I just wish it came with lyrics.

Best drummer of DT 👍❤👍
hæææ. what does DT mean
You had me at the "Annihilator Set The World On Fire" 🙂

We've reached boss level drum plugs in lol love it. Will have to buy it!
Mangini we will miss you in DT
@@LoganStryker82Of course we will wtf

Dream Theater just went backwards.. Mangini's drumming brought them to the next level, and their first Grammy.
Mangini is great but way to robotic. Portnoy just has incredible feel and energy

I thought what the hell was Alan Rickman doing in MixWave.
Good stuff
“Why do you need so many bass drums?”
“Why SHOULDNT i be able to use so many bass drums?”
his KIT is actually sounded better than when he was in DT ..

Yup, we sampled a pearl brass reference snare. It just didn’t make it into the filming of this video.
@@MixWaveOfficial awesome! Thanks for the reply
💯
Golden ratio mike ;) 💫
Why you didn't use dereverb for voice on this "podcast"? A mystery.I hope the product itself will be bombastic, Mike deserves it.
With Portnoy, DT is going to be sloppy again - what a shame
DT with Portnoy wasn't sloppy. MP is a fabulous drummer. Mike Mangini and his incredible knowledge opens a wider range for DT technicially, but he was not really involved into the songwriting.
I just wanna see Taylor
