Drumagog 5 Quick Tutorial - Drum Replacement

A brief video overview of using Drumagog 5:http://www.drumagog.com
Drumagog is a real-time audio plug-in that replaces the sound of your recorded drums. Don't like the sound of your snare? Insert Drumagog on the snare track and choose a new sound; Drumagog automatically plays the new snare in place of the original.

I have drumagog 5 platinum and its fantastic! Ive always used it as a replacer but for muy own projects I dont have a dummer. I have a set of drums that are favorited in drumagog. Is it possible to set each of those drums to a specific midi note. Go into my DAW (cubase) open a piano roll and program the drums all in one piano roll? How would I do this? Thanks!

@mlabonte05 For every drum sound you plan on using, you need a separate instance of Drumagog. So, you'll need a separate MIDI track for each drum. My suggestion would be to program the drums on a piano roll using your favorited drums, copy and paste the pattern for each drum into a new MIDI track, and then add Drumagog to each of those tracks.

great video!

question: I dun have a great room to record my drums in, could i replace the real "room mic" channel with drumagog with a room mic sound from eh say.....BFD2? (thats what i use)

I don't know. I'm thinking if i can get a better virtual room sound by using drumagog

many thanks!

@olivercheung18 Yes, you can use room samples from BFD. The best way would be to use Drumagog 5 Platinum's plugin hosting. You can mute the direct mic from BFD, and thus only getting the room sound. However, you would need to be using a drum sample in BFD that is similar to the drum sample in Drumagog so that the room sound is matches appropriately.

Anybody knows if Drumagog 5 compatible with sonar x1?

I have downloaded the demo but it wont show in Sonar x1. I have rescan the pluggins, and make sure drumagog.dll its in cakewalks vst folder. But still cant get it to appear in sonar.

I need this badly! I've been writing music and recording since I was 16, 6 years ago and I'm constantly finding myself getting distracted from the writing process because I need to process the drums as I go. Trying to write and record additional instruments with poor sounding drums in heavy music just doesn't inspire creation, and this looks like it would pretty much keep my love for music going.

@thetroope666 Look into a function in EZDrummer called "Multi-Out," this should do what you're looking for.

[thetroope666]

@WaveMachineLabs I get what you're saying, however I'm new to this program and recording stuff, so I don't know how to get seperate tracks for the drums and adding those samples to them.

[WaveMachineLabs]

@thetroope666 Multi-out mode should send each drum from EZdrummer to it's own track. Adding a separate instance of Drumagog on each of these tracks (i.e. one on the snare track, one on the kick track), and selecting a corresponding sample within Drumagog should do what you're looking for.

[thetroope666]

@WaveMachineLabs All this is a little bit vague to me. If I put the EZdrummer to multichannel mode, and turn on drumagog, playbacking the midi drum track, I get the same sample for every drum sound i.e. toms snare etc.
