    I appreciate how you describe your process. It helps me think of things in a different way. For example, your explanation of the kick drum and wanting more of a “stomp.” The kick drum is the driving force of the beat, and I don’t always think about how it can support or distract from the main idea. 😎

    Thanks for your insights. I'm enjoying this video series so much. I have a question if you don't mind; is there any specific seting you need to tweek to be able to drag midi from songtrack in ezdrummer to ez bass in Reaper? I'm using reaper as well with SD3 and EzBass and for some reason I can't drag and drop. I need to export song as midi and then import. Any suggestion on how to fix that? Thanks!

    • @ShootieSchool
      @ShootieSchool  5 місяців тому

      Thanks! On PC it seems there's no problems. On Mac you might have an OS permissions issue. I would say bring this question to a Reaper community to confirm.

    Hi Shootie, I noticed your great videos, but unfortunately I only speak a little English. Please excuse me.
    I bought the bundle from Toontrack yesterday. Now I wanted to try out the Bandmate. I wanted to drag an EZ Key intro from the DAW into EZ Drummer's Bandmate, but that doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

    • @ShootieSchool
      @ShootieSchool  2 місяці тому +1

      Thank you for saying. If you're on a Mac you must Export it from your DAW before importing to EZkeys. OS permission prevent the seamless workflow. If you're on a PC some DAWs have a workaround.
