Who is playing the guitars on this. Don't tell me it you too!
Fantastic video again Shawn. I didn’t know the kit pieces could be rearranged on the grid editor. Note to Toontrack: Don’t wait for Metal Month to hire Shawn because he is the GURU of all things Toontrack!
Thank you, Mark!!
I don't normally comment but dude, your passion, ability to communicate and understanding is second to none. I really appreciate you man. Thank you for living. 🙂
Your comment totally made my day! Thank you.
this guy rocks....I trying to tune in his mind and I feel like he is 10 sets ahead.
As always, Shawn, a great, informative video. Toontracks should hire you full-time. Tell them I said so. 😊
Thank you, Ron!
watching while having breakfast... couldn't be better timed ...thanks for your awesome video Shootie School 😎
You got it, thank you!
I love to see a guy, (or gal) so enthusiastic about their work. It’s a beautiful thing to behold. Top stuff Shawn. You are indeed a mighty man. 💯 👍
Thank you for taking the time to say!!! Makes my day.
Fantastic video, thank you for your tutorials. I've learned heaps from your channel.
And thanks to Toontrack for sponsoring this as well !!!
Thank you!!
Just in time for my coffee lol great timing Shootie lol
Same here!
Great tutorial man! Love the way you teach. The joy you have when you build a fill that works great is so contageous!🎉
Thank you for saying, Josh!!
Thanks Shawn, there were so many usefull tricks in this whole series, so just thanks and keep on rockin'
Great to hear, Dirk! Cheers!
Thanks for this awesome metal month series. I am really enjoying the way you describe things. You are definitely one of the most positive UA-camrs out there! Keep up the great work!
I appreciate you taking the time to say! Thank you!
Just stumbled across this video. First, you're a great teacher. 👏👏 Second, great info! I love EZD so I'll def be incorporating this into my workflow.
Welcome! Come back for more when you're ready.
Another great video. These videos really are top drawer. Would love to see more on how you use velocity, randomisation and dynamics when dealing with patterns from other drum generes.
Thank you, Craig!
Wow this video is great! I just ran into your channel looking at random items. Your doing really well on showing how to use this program. I hope you have a ton more to help me with superior drummer 3!!! Thank you!!
Welcome!! Thank you!
Another great series this year! Thanks 🙏🏻
Thank you!
FILLS YES!
\m/
Always an inspiration to us Shawn, Thank you
I hope you’re doing well, Michael!
Thanks Shawn, I always learn something new!!
Thank you! And for also being a member!!
Amazing video! I learned a lot of little tricks in this one
Great to hear!
Metal Month! Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Loving this content and definitely selling me on the Toontrack stuff I need to pick up, still.
Rock on \m/
every month is metal month. Wait, I think this month is smooth jazz month.. okay.
As a guitarist I have no problem keeping Rhythm but I find it really difficult to keep time and transition with fills and different grooves. Thanks Shawn
Hope this was helpful. Thanks for the comment!
This was great!
Great to hear!
Great tutorial! Thanks a lot!
Thank you!
Excellent tutorial on a subject that I never paid enough care and attention to. I never consciously applied the purpose of fills for guiding the listener to the transition... Raise the energy or lower it. Thanks!
Great comment, thank you!
Congrats on 1200 view in two days but ~1100 of those are me. Happy Turkey day to all.
Lol!!! Well thank you!!
Great job explaining. Keep it up.
Thank you! Will do!
What can I say? Thanks again, Shawn. Between this series and your course that I bought, I have a lot of things to work on and to work with. Happy Thanksgiving, brother.
Have a great holiday, Rocky!!
Subscribed...well how could you not!
Welcome!!
You're a natural Shawn. Really enjoy your videos. Would you ever consider doing a video on using a MIDI controller with EZDrummer to bash out drum parts for a song? Your videos on using EZDrummer's inbuilt songwriting capabilities are fantastic, but I'm one of those people that sometimes bashes out drum parts on a MIDI keyboard directly into my DAW. Do you ever use EZDrummer that way? For example, how would you go about doing a cover version of a song that has a very specific drum track and you want it to be true to the original as note perfect as you can get it? So you wouldn't be using EZDrummer as a songwriting tool but more of a tool to actually copy a drum track if you were doing a cover version. Thanks again!
A video similar to this is bound to happen sooner or later from me.
And yes, I work like that when it's instinctual.
Thank you!
yeah, F, I wanna see Shawn play the Roland mesh.
Sometimes you're teaching things you probably don't know you're teaching... For example, in this case I was wondering how you were getting that "Jump to Time" window, found it ctrl j in Reaper, very useful.
Frank thanks so much for your support in the past. I lay my markers out on the downbeat of each section, so if I need preroll, it’s a fast option to get it! I was just double clicking the time display, so I learned from you in this one. Thank you!
@@ShootieSchool Double click, even better
🙏
Hi, thx for this video. How do you rename a midi part as for example pre-verse ? 😉
Right Click>Song Part>Manage Parts.
So it appears when you insert or just plainly add a fill to the end of a section, it's shortening that section to exact time of the fill which is great , for obvious reasons of not changing the length of the song or arrangement, do you have to set it up in some way or is that just the it automatically works ?
That is the default behavior. Just drag and drop.
I've got Adobe Audition CC that I use as my DAW. I'm having an awful time trying to get the ED3 plugin working. I go into the AA prefs and point AA to the plugin folder, then run the scan and nothing populates. What am I doing wrong?
Have you tried this? helpx.adobe.com/audition/using/adding-third-party-plug-ins.html
Oh wow! Thanks for replying! Yes, I have read that page many times. All my music buddies are telling me to ditch Audition saying that it's too proprietary. I'm thinking about trying Presonus Studio One. What are your thoughts? Thanks agian!@@ShootieSchool
@@mosfet74 I recommend anything besides Pro Tools due to their price and support quality. Reaper has a great demo that you can compare Studio One to.
Anybody wanna program some stuff for me using Logic/Ezdrm. ..........holy smokes.....just had an awakening. You rock. Shawn! I knew some of that drum humanize stuff and obvious drummer impossible riffs but the way you explained it (I think you're a drummer, right?), Its perfection, So now, .....I have Logic Pro and EZdrummer and just beginning to understand. this shit. Thanks. ummm, I suppose I have to watch all your stuff now. So, I'm gonna have to make room watching Shogun and whatever movie I have seen 5 times on Netflix and write more hard stuff or anything for that matter. I'm almost 60yrs old ( I don't surf anymore or skate/snow.....my guitar will be in my coffin)
Toontrack....yah, I suppose Ive only tapped into it about 1% ,lol. It has a lot of potential and your insight about programming.
hmmm....well, gonna be busy for awhile watching your vids. Thanks, I will donate shortly.
I'm so glad someone is looking out for other musician like you. Keep it up!
Slayer rules, by the way! I play the axe and dabble on drumEZdrummer......Anybody here can program me some stuff. I can send riffs , I use Locifg Pro..lemme know!
wait....it me ...lol...to much wine
Great to hear! Come back when you’re ready and have fun with it.
Does it only me, or drum kits themselves looking kinda pixelated on hidpi screens with scaling?
I lean on stocks way too much, but this just sparked a dozen ideas. Excellent walkthrough!
Thank you, Scott!
