Midi vs. Audio Recording Tutorial - TD12 vDrums Brain Sounds vs. Superior Drummer 2

I got so much response on my channel and a lot of questions referring to the equipment I use, how Midi works, how Superior Drummer sounds like...

Well, I thought that this clip would serve best to help newbies just like I were not even two years ago. Have fun! If you are especially interested in only the sounds...skip to 7:00.

I have a td-4, and i am trying to use AD sounds in midi because they sound better than the roland sets on my module. The issue I have though, is comping tracks in midi is a pain in the ass. Is that not true for ableton, or are you just so good you don't need to comp tracks?

@dreaminginnoother

heyhey, unfortunately i dont knwo whether this is better or not in ableton. this track here i recorded simply by listening to the guitar track on headphones and playing along it, it was a quick number as i lacked time back then, unfortunately, because i love the track. it was one of the last songs of my former band, thebrokenfaithinsaints, there is a live version on yt, if you like to hear a comparism to that, just type thebrokenfaithinsaints + untitled!

@dreaminginnoother

though i know from composing music in ableton that it has some good features concerning time, metrics and stuff. go and try the trial. it's def. worth it!

Great stuff. The only explanation that worked for me. Thank you!

[MrMichaelSchwark]

@motzingw

Thx a lot, dude. Back these days I was looking for something like that because I newly owned a TD12 and a comp, but had no clue about anything like this at all. I had quite a hard time getting my nose into that stuff but finally , if this can help other people, I am really glad. Greetz from Santiago de Chile.

Thx a lot, I am glad I could help. It's not easy find such things on the internet, that's why I came up with this. Greetz from Berlin! Micha

i could really use your help. i bought a MIDI cable for my Roland TD-3 drumkit to record my drums with MIDI. i also have Ableton live, but i really don't know where to start... when i plugin my device (it has the correct drivers) Live can see it but when i 'Arm' the drum track it doesn't give any response. can you please help me out here? thanks!

[Mumblee]

I have the excact same setup but I can only get a midi signal, I cant get an audio response using one, or both lines in. Any ideas?
