Customize your Drum Kit with Session Drummer 3 & V-Studio 700 (2 of 15)

[guitdude09]

for some reason the stereo is reversed( the hats sounding from the left speaker instead of the right) on this and superior drummer 2 in sonar x1, only during playback, the mixdown is back to normal stereo again, i don't know whats up with the midi, if anyone knows i'd appreciate it.

How do you RECORD???

i have seen a bunch of Videos that demonstrate how awesome this is, but nothing that says " click this to record what Session Drummer 3 is Playing"

How do you record the Drum Track??

@capierce14 you drag a midi loop into sonar. theres a small rectangle with a + in it.. drag it from there into your midi channel.

@capierce14 I guess the drum-track is a midi-track so you should set the record-source for your soundcard to "what you hear" or something similar, and then just arm an audio-track in sonar for recording and just record the midi-drums. Make sure to mute any possible other tracks then in any case. lol.

in this program, can you create a drum-track just as you want it, or is it it just the default settings you are allowed to use?

@unlyckystrike Looks like you can save patterns. I use Drum Tools Session Designer (used to be Slicy Drummer) and make the MIDI patterns and just use the drums in Cakewalk to tweak the sounds. Otherwise you spend a lot of time trying to get it just right when DTSD will help you get exactly what you want no matter how crazy you can make your drums go :)

@unlyckystrike you program the drum with a step sequencer, using the samples from session drummer 3. really easy. load sessiondrummer.. make a midi channel.. open your step sequencer and put in the drums.

@GoodFortuneOfficial Ok, but I solved this a while ago hehe.. I bought ezdrummer and I use the drum-map manager in sonar and just draw the drum pattern with the piano-roll thing. It works just fine and it sounds really good also.
