[Tech] How to Program Drums

h4x5k8 · 08-06-2007, 12:44 AM

Open the tempo track (ctrl+t) there should be a line going across signifying the set tempo across however many measures of your song. Now select the Pen/Pencil tool up at the top, and click on the temp track where you want the tempo change to be (the measure/time), a square dot will now appear, select the cursor instead of the pen now and move that dot to the desired tempo (or measure if you placed it wrong with the pencil). You can also change time signatures by using the pen but clicking at the top of the temp track where it shows a "4/4". Its hard to explain without pics, if i my studio comp wasn't in bios fritz I'd take some pics, but tough.

Hope that helped.

If Audition supports VST and will let you program MIDI into that VST channel, then you can use DFH2.

i have cubase le and when i follow the instructions to a T. I don't get the midi track "opening up" so to speak. the extra stuff doesn't go below it. so i'm stuck atm.

So is there a way to apply different eq and compression etc to different drums outside writing each section on a different track?

MetalSir · 08-25-2007, 06:06 PM

one question: i have all my work with the drum done in REASON redrum.. it's possible to import the drum's line from Reason to EZ? i mean the entire project (with dinamics, automation, and everithing else).. or i have to import the midi file and set all from the beginning?

=) tks

you can import midi into cubase - but im not sure if the velocity info will go with it. you might have to re-vel all of your hits.

thanks ryan

i have gotten realy fed up making my computer fight with the wall whenever the drum programming didn't work!
