These files contain different setups of the kit: +* basic.xml: This kit is a basic version of the kit, comparable to a standard rock setup. Good balance between memory footprint and usability. +* full.xml: This contains EVERYTHING! Cymbal hits with both shank and tip, whiskers, ride cymbal with ball chain attached... It's all in there, but it takes up a lot of ram! If your machine crashes on load, you can't handle it. Only use this if you really, REALLY have to. We don't recommend it. +* minimal.xml: This is just the bare minimum. Great while composing songs. +* no_whiskers.xml: This is the full kit, but without the whisker hits. This version has a huge memory footprint, so keep that in mind if it crashes on load. +* whiskers_only.xml: This is the full whiskers kit, but with no ordinary drum stick hits, except for snare rim. This this if you want to jazz it up a bit. ;) + +## Release notes + +#### Version 2.1 (August 2018): +* Implemented bleed control + +#### Version 2.0.1 (April 2014): +* Completely redone from 1.0 from raw files to fix several velocity issues + +#### Version 1.0 (Sometime before April 2014): +* Initial release, but had velocity issues, see 2.0.1 -- cgit v1.2.3
