care to pm me a list? i'd be interested in buying them from the sites that sell them.
im not gonna go through all the DVDs because i dont use Reason that much, but go to:
http://www.sonicreality.com/products2.php?filter=refills
Sonic Reality makes the BEST Reason refills you can get. they dont just tweak old samples from the Soundbank. i have all of them, and i must say they are spectabulous... Instruments of the 60s and 70s just blew my mind when i thought it would be pathetic. definitely check them out. you won't be disappointed!

I don't see why drum sounds would get blocked. Are they actual rips off retail products? Or just kits that some people sell on the net or by mail order?
If they don't have names and are just drum sounds you have, then I'd say they aren't warez and upload away, if you wish to that is.
i.e - Randomdrumsounds.zip
most of the samples i have are off retail products like sound modules (the Mo' Phatt has the best drums here...) and sample sites like Sample Kings, ModernBeats, p5Audio etc, of which i have nearly all the drums. then i have stuff like 'Urban Jointz' from EastWest, who are known for their quality. i dont care much for the synths but bought it solely for the drum kits, which there are not too much of, but are all quality.
continuing my rambling, from years of exploration into the construction of my own drums from other drums, i have made the best drum collection i possess, by layering. sure it sounds easy, but its really not if you want go get a good hit.
you cant layer overprocessed drums, the best are simple ones with slightly different harmonics. if you get the same type of hit it will clash in some frequency ranges and cause the sound to be crap.

but before layering its a good idea to EQ so you have two distinct harmonic identities. then after layering, compress (not too much...) to keep some frequencies from standing out uncomfortably. then the rest is just trial and error. this is the best way you will get nice and clean hits.

It may not be logical, but it's true, whether or not you choose to believe it. But hey, my cousin Subs did the demo song for Reason 3, and I did a song for Propellerheads label, so what do i know. Oh btw, i'd love to know if you know any top producers that can confirm. Cause last, time I checked, my cousin - who is the producer and guitarist in my band has sold over 30 million records.
who is your cousin? what is this propellerhead's label called?
what song did you produce? i'd like to get some credits here. don't say you ghost-produced or there is no credits because its a mixtape or something... i bet i (and some others on this board) have better drums than your cousin anyway, so there's no big deal.
so lemme know the info on that label and the song you produced. and congratulations
