may i ask how to put drum roll sound in the midi roll? do you need to put 64th notes on the midi (piano) roll, or is there just one key that (like maybe C1 or something) that will play it? sorry noob here.

You can technically do the same in EZdrummer too, you just have to route every drum in EZdrummer to a separate audio track within your DAW. It's a bit time consuming. You can also do this with multiple instances of EZdrummer to be able to layer different kicks and snare. And if you select the "original mix" preset, you get the least processed version so you can go wild with your own mixing. Again, a bit time consuming and not very beginner friendly but it's really nice to have full freedom over you mix.

as I understand ez drummer samples are already processed and mix ready so you can route all you want. in SD3 they are what microphones picked up, no processing which is why you want to route them for adding professional plugins.

Been using ezdrummer for a few years. Upgraded to 3 when it came out. Love the grid editing features. Was a huge addition. But you’re 110% right that ezd3 is mix ready. And that’s the best feature. Because I really don’t know much about all that mixing stuff and I don’t want to screw it up. I too have the modern metal pack. Wil putney has forgotten more about mixing metal than most people will ever know. And I know that I can select one of his presets and it’ll be perfect. Sd3 means I need to know a lot more than I do. Since I don’t, a wise man once said “a man’s gotta know his limitations”.

The stack feature is the killer function in SD3. You get incredible customization and can make snares exactly as you want them. What I do is use 4 snares stacked. One for the low end, with high cut at maybe 200 Hz. One for mids with low and high cuts so the freq range is like 220-5000 Hz. Then one for the tail i.e. the snare wires with a low cut at maybe 6000 Hz, using only the bottom mic. This gives you an extremly easy method of adjusting the tail length with the envelope on just the wires. And finally one for clickiness with a transient with high attack and low release. Then I change one or several of these "layers" depending on the song.

After watching this i have decided Ez drummer is for me. I noticed you forgot the ability to put one drum beat into the midi edit area and somewhere in there you can make it write the whole track for the song with one click. This wouldn't be a finish product but it saves having to add ever verse and chorus or pre chorus manually and get into actually recording the song. Yes I am more of a song writer lol. But then once you have your vox and git bass etc click tracks down then you can go back and do your drums as you want it before nailing down the other individual tracks. That's what i would do.

Go for EZdrummer if you want , "easy" already mixed drums that are ready to be put on a mix or you want quick song ideas , but the sound experimentals will be limited because they are mixed already But if you want a professional approach and you want to sound as close to the real stuff, go for sd3 , but the thing with sd3. Its much more raw. Btw sd3 i think also give you an option for mix ready sounds but tbh if you want to get sd3 you gotta utilize the rawness of the sample quality of its libraries

This comment will probably get lost but why use the mixer in EZD/SD3 instead of just making a multi-output track in your DAW and mixing them in the DAW as you would with regular drums? I don't mean that in an argumentative way, I'm genuinely curious about the differences. It personally makes no sense to me, workflow-wise, why someone would want to switch back and forth between two different mixers.
@TaylorDanley
4 ай бұрын
It just depends on your workflow. If you like dialing in the drum sounds and then routing to a stereo bus, it keep your DAW mixer cleaner. It also allows for mixer presets using things you might not have (compressors, transient shapers, saturation, etc) so you can easily load a professionally dialed drum sound. And of course if you didn’t have those tools, they’re included in the program. But yes, if you wanted to be a purist and have a workflow that works with both midi and real drums, routing out would be the way to go

Does EZ drummer or Superior Drummer do what Logic Pro Virtual Drummer does and create drum beats by listening to the track you make it follow. I am not a drummer, and Logic Pro Drummer provides drums for me by listening to my groove tracks. I can tell Logic Pro drummer to have the snare or kick follow the guitar track, or follow the bass guitar track, etc., and the Logic Pro Drummer will create drum parts. EZ Drummer and Superior drummer seem like just loop based software drums. IS there a feature where EZ Drummer or Superior Drummer can follow certain instrument tracks you tell it to and come up with drum grooves on its own?
