I can't thank you enough! I've searched high and low all over the internet and NOBODY ever talks about the extra step of adding the instrument. Now it works! THANK YOU!
I have been trying to do this exact same thing for soooo long. I was unsuccessful until now. Thank you so much for sharing. Made my day :-)
Same here!
I realize I am kinda randomly asking but do anyone know of a good site to stream new series online?
Me too :)
No sabes lo que me costó conectar mi efnote a studio one, busqué tutoriales, videos por todas partes y no lo lograba. Me encontré con tu video, seguí el paso a paso y mágicamente se seteo todo, anduvo a la perfección. Te debo un asado bien Argentino, estás invitado a casa a comer carne de vaca bien hecha, en agradecimiento por la conexión 🥁🇦🇷😎
Looked up a ton of different vids before finding this and finally got it working! Great video man, this was a huge help!
Thank you for the tutorial. You are a good teacher!! This really simplified the process, and I am very grateful!!
Great video on this subject! Straight to the point! Step by step. No confusing and irrelevant side notes.
Excell Calhoun III - Thanks for the comment and your support! I am glad you found this useful.
Thank you for this tip. I was looking for this the morning not knowing why my edrum was not able to read on the studio one.
Thank you so much!!! I've been trying to get my drums to talk to my DAW for so long and could not figure out what I was doing wrong! You explained it so well!
This helped me so much thank you a million times. I used this to connect my td20 that I have spent days trying to connect to reaper and now studio one.
Andrew Huddleston - Thanks for the comment and your support! I am glad you found this useful.
...and thanks for the sub!
Man you are a lifesaver I've been looking to connect my drum set for 3 days I use a yamaha dd 75 but the principle is the exact same, your video is a godsend. Appreciate it tons
dude, you rock!! Thank you so much for making something that seems complicated so simple... Made my year!!!
Guadalupe Garcia - Thanks for the comment and your support!
Thanks a lot for this. Had some issues with my new kit and you helped me solve it. Works great now!
Finally! I found a video that showed how to do this! The part I was missing was the input for the track. Thank you!!! Liked and subscribed.
sixtythreechevy - Thanks for the comment and your support! I am glad you found this useful.
Thank you so much for this! You are a very patient and good understanding explainer!
You got us all the way together. Thank you!
Hello man, thanks for this video, I'm from brazil and I couldn't found any tutorial complete like this one in brazilian youtubers, great video!
Rodrigo Lopes - greetings to Brazil!
So glad you found this video useful.
Thanks for the comment and your support!
thanks, it help me a lot today, after many hours I manage to get my Roland Td-1kv working on studio one, cheers
I was having a heckuva time getting this to work in Studio One (I had it going fine in Ableton, but wanted to switch things up...) Thank you for your excellent directions! I am using an Alesis Strike module on an A2E conversion kit connected to a Focusrite Scarlett 1818 via midi cable with Studio One 5 and Superior Drummer 3. It's a killer setup and now it sounds terrific!!! Thanks again - you earned my sub.
The one thing that was hanging me up (and you didn't mention in your video) is that you need to select your drum module as the controller in Studio One's dropdown menu in the upper right of the plugin. Once I found that little nugget, I was golden!
Exactly what I needed, thank you!
Dylan S - Thanks for the comment and your support! I am glad you found this useful.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I have a Donner DED-200, its not the highest end kit, but it feels GREAT! The downside is the module is, well, what you pay for. Being able to connect this to Studio One as a midi controller is a dream!!
This video actually helped, thank you!
Greetings from Amsterdam Thank you!! Great video, just what i need ;-) as i am new to midi. I am thinking of SD3 (I woul'd like to use this with my live band)
Thanks! This filled in some gaps for me. I've got an old Roland TD-3 kit that I wanted to try out with EZdrummer. Your video answered a lot of questions about the hookups. I found an old midi cable and was able to successfully use a Presonus Audiobox USB to connect to my PC using Studio One. Much appreciated. Next step is to actually demo EZ drummer and see how it works out.
You rock! Thanks for this video. You saved me so much time. Much appreciated.
Thanks for this. There's alot of random noise out there and this really did help. Cheers.
Yesterday I got my Roland Powerplay x. Going to try it today. :) Love your studio!
Thanks for this, quite helpful.
Just subscribed. Thanks for the video, I was up and running in 5 minutes. Really appreciated.
Steve Arsenault - Thanks for the comment and your support! I am glad you found this useful.
Thanks for this ! easy to follow video!
Thank you! That made it a lot easier.
Thank you a lot! finally I found your video!
Very clear and easy to follow, thank you! I found a wireless MIDI cable, check them out it works very well and has been pretty convenient for drumset and as always any input lag off MIDI I just Q it out later!
Exactly what I needed. Thank you.
Chris Devor - Thanks for the comment and your support! I am glad you found this useful.
Thanks boss, you made my day
This is exactly what I needed.
Chiro ASMR - Thanks for the comment and your support! I am glad you found this useful.
Thanks. This really helped.
I just purchased Personas One-6 and want to record drum tracks, Thanks for the video! this will really help decrease my learning curve.
Thank you. Your patient explanations are very appreciated. Are you willing to shoot a similar video using studio one drum sounds and a small control keyboard or something like an Alesis SR series drum machine?
Thank You for helping me find My Roland SPD 30 !!!
THANK YOI !!!!!!! LLevaba horas intentando conectar mi TD 11 y era imposible para mi, muchas gracias, saludos !!!
Very cool! Thanks 😊
Jerry Ramos - Thanks for the comment and your support! I am glad you found this useful.
Muchisimas gracias!!!! Rock on!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Thank you! I am connecting an Alexis Surge Drum Kit via USB to my Studio One. When I went into “ADD” I chose “NEW INSTRUMENT” instead of “NEW KEYBOARD.” It did not work. I went back and selected “NEW KEYBOARD” and everything worked great. Thank you for this very helpful video.
DiggingUpThePast - Thanks for the comment and your support!
Glad you got that figured out… always “new keyboard”
thanx for the help man!
SUREMAN FPV - Thanks for the comment and your support! I am glad you found this useful.

Thank you!
Thank you Sir.
perfect!
thank you 👌
thanks for sharing
fan - Thanks for the comment and your support!
thank you so much
Thank you for your great and so helpful video. Could you inform me how to set up my Yamaha DT Express IV Electronic drum set, without a third party instrument. My problem is how to midi map the set, not how to connect it to Studio one.
Thanks mate!
James Hetfield - Thanks for the comment and your support! I am glad you found this useful.
Thank you
You're a good dude! I did this on my own but added new instrument instead of new keyboard and it did not work.
You are my saviour 😇😇😇
Conaugh Parker - Thanks for the comment and your support! I am glad you found this useful.
thank you.
In Studio One can each drum be custom edited? Example a tighter and not so wide open sound on the toms. At this time the toms are sustaining too long. Im trying to get a shorter sustain and tighter sound. Thank you great video. BTW, I'm using Steven Slates Drum modules inside Presonus.
Thanks a mill
Tommymaggot1 - Thanks for the comment and your support!
I tried this same exact procedure in Studios One 5 Artist with Superior Drummer 2 and an Alesis Nitro module. No luck so far
Thank you, just got an Alesis Surge to connect to Studio One with EZ Drummer. My buddy's coming from AZ on Thanksgiving and we're about to write some music to lift you. Shit will get you yoked. Your about to look swollen in that suit papa.
False Doctrine Destroyer - Thanks for the comment and your support!
Lol
Not sure exactly what swollen comment means but happy writing!
@@AdLaceStudios I'm in the same situation as him without EZ drummer trying to use the defaults, and even though everything is connected my kit doesn't trigger any response from the digital instrument. Swollen means buff that's how gym bros joke around with eachother.
Hello ! Thanks for this video, i'm french so excuse my poor english :)
I have an issue with my roland td1 dmk and the assigantion of some notes in Midi.
I manipulate Studio one as I need/learn.
I specify that I am on the free version of SO (studio one Prime)
I managed to record a guitar, keyboard (for violins) in Audio in the behringer UMC202HD sound card.
I am a drummer at the base and it seemed normal to me to also record the drum track in "real".
I have a Roland TD1, I tried an audio connection (mono because I didn't have the double jack), the sound is dirty in SO.
So usb wiring and there ... hassle with the MIDI.
I re-watched the tutorials, assigned the Roland module as a new instrument, opened an instrument track, sent PresenceXT into it to use the provided drum kits (no Impact module on the free version of SO), and oh miracle I managed to have very nice sound, not annoying latency by minimizing the sample blocks in the audio interface, only BIG problem, I don't know how to "re-assign"
MIDI inputs to the sound I want.
Basically my bass drum when I kick, plays the A1 note well (for example) on the presence keyboard (which is a bass drum) but my alto tom and my ride sound crazy (like alto tom for reggae rototom and ride for curly snare drum).
Do you know how to tweak and above all can we tweak?!
Thank you all because this is the big thorn that blocks ALL my project...
I have pictures if needed...
Great... I hope it works. this is the only thing holding up my music...
Rich Weir - Thanks for the comment and your support!
How did you make out?
Did you ever tried Hertz Drums plugin? The story behind it is that I have triggers in my drum set, they go in to the DDTI module (from ddrums), then to the computer with Studio One 6. I do have signal from the triggers, but some how I have a hard time with the sound coming from Hertz which is like Ez Drummer. Sometimes I heard the sound loud if done with the mouse, but veeery low with the trigger of sometimes no sound at all. There's a 14 day trial, if you want to experiment the issue I have and figure a way out.
it doesnt work. my fame dd kit is selected and all but no reaction when hitting it
...dumb ass of the day here tossing his two cents in: make sure to expand your tracks so you can select the correct device. I had my drum track set to my keyboard lol... Thanks so much for the video I wouldn't have caught that without your help! Just subbed :)
ChuckImania - Thanks for the comment and your support! I am glad you found this useful.
Got a few of the Ez Drummer kits, curious how different superior is to Ez Drummer. and if its worth doing the Crossgrade if your just doing demo stuff?
J K that’s actually a really good question that I myself struggled with. I will do a deep dive comparison on that subject tomorrow or Wednesday.
Great Topic to discuss!
Is it possible to use a yamaha dtx 402 kit as a midi controller to trigger ez drummer sounds and record that into studio one? Or atleast record the midi info and then change the sound into the sounds from ez drummer?
I set my TD-17 set up, but I keep have problems where my drums trigger my synths and my midi controller triggering my drums. I need to figure out a way to stop that from happening, do you have any technique’s, because you had to of had this happen too before, right??
can i save what i record and send it to my buddy with a differnt software to put guitar on the track?
Mine doesn't show my drums set in input on the mixer any ideas why thank u
Thanks for this video. I would like to be able to play a sequence into studio by hitting a pad (eg play & stop function) do you know the solution. Thank you.
krick krack - Thanks for the comment and your support! I am glad you found this useful.
You will need to have a trigger device setup via midi to achieve this.
Look up Richie Castellano he has a 7 part series where he goes into this sort of thing.

Hello! What if I want to use the sounds from the TD30 Module?
Is there anyway to do this without the interface? Can I not just plug my module into my computer and it recognize the module? Press record and hit the drums and it record?
I’ve set up my SPD SX as you’ve described but still can’t see it on the DAW.
Does this work with Slate 4&5 and Addictive Drums 2?
How did you get that software to studio 1?
How to insert alesis kit into macos without using vst drum?
I never could figure out how to get it to play through the Presonus Board 😢
can i do this with impact?
Have I been confused this whole time? Is it not possible to record MIDI using the drums, and use the same sounds that are coming from the drum kit? Do you have to use a VST for the actual sound?
I'm attempting to do this very thing and the midi mapping is terrible -- toms as ride, hihat close as some auxiliary percussion...
Do you have the driver for the td11 installed on your machine? That may be the missing puzzle piece for me.
Zachary Smithingell - Thanks for the comment and your support!
You need to make sure that your midi output settings in your drum brain are set to follow host. That might be the missing component.
@@AdLaceStudios ah yes! Probably super obvious, but I'm completely new at this. I'll give that a whack -- should set me straight. Thanks for this and your video!
What if we don't have the USB Uno Midi Interface? It's pretty confusing.
Is it possible to play and record the kits in the module into studio one?
Felix Stenmark - Thanks for the comment and your support!
It sure is. Just have to make sure you are selecting the brain as the source for your midi out.
Hmmm, I’ve followed along with your instructions and Studio One has found my kit etc but when I open up EZ Drummer and click on the top right yellow thingy, my drum kit doesn’t show up 🤔Can anyone help me out please?
Worlds Worst Musician - Thanks for the comment and your support!
I’m going to ask the silly question and please don’t be offended. Did you arm the track?
Or is the EZ drummer loaded properly into studio one… this can be checked at the start page or you can see it loading upon the launch of studio one.
I would like to work this out with you to get you up and running.
Maybe we could do a Skype call or something?
@@AdLaceStudios thanks so much for getting back to me. I did manage to work it out. You have to add your drum kit as a keyboard, not an instrument (go figure). Once I did that, I was able to get it working :) Thanks again!
Lol . MIDI to USB is probably my issue.. i don't have that peripheral 😂
Is there any benefit to getting a high end Roland kit, say a VAD503, versus a TD11 if it's going to be a midi trigger?
The only benefit of buying a high end kit like you asked is if you plan on using the brain in a live situation. For example if you are just using it for recording in a home studio then you will most likely be using Superior Drummer or something similar to use as your tone engine in your DAW.
Having said that if you are looking for velocity and feel when you play your kit you will want to at the very least get a kit that has mesh heads in my opinion. Try to stay away from the rubber pads if you can.
The brains on these are pretty good but you will get more use out of your DAW and Superior or EZ drummer.
I hope that helps and thanks for the support.
@@AdLaceStudios It does and you probably just saved me a mountain of money.
I never used SD3. Is it a resource hog? I'm just getting into MIDI triggering for drums and I'm trying to sort out if my older machine can handle real time processing. It's a 2013 Mac Trash can. It has a 2.7 Ghz 12 core Xeon E5 and 32 GB of 1866 Mhz DDR3. Older hardware but do you think I'll get any lag? It runs TH-u Overloud fine but I suspect triggering a full kit may be more demanding.
Perhaps a question for the SD folk?
By the way your video was enormously helpful. I also run Studio One. I would have never figured out how to configure a midi kit on my own.
Thanks for that. I've been recording real drums and amps up to this point. Never even used a software keyboard.
Solid tutorial.
Hi T.
Your 2013 should be ok. It looks like you have it hot-rodded out pretty good from the specs.
Yes SD3 is a resource hog. I run SD2 and EZD2 with no problems as far as resources go. I have upgraded my Mac but I ran this on my 2009 Mac for years with no issues.
Here is a link to get your latency for midi offset configuration setup with your devices.

If you would like me to do a more in depth video explanation of how to lay your first drum track down via midi then free the resources up to finish up the song please let me know and I will schedule that video to be created.
What drum set are you using and the approximate $$$ of it if you care to share. I want to do exactly what you are doing here.
DiggingUpThePast - Thanks for the comment and your support!
I use Roland TD11KV that I purchased new about 8 years ago for $2000.00.
I’m sure you can find a decent used kit a lot cheaper than this though.
@@AdLaceStudios - thank you for this reply. Your video was extremely helpful. I love Studio One. I’m assuming any drum kit will work that has a USB connection?
@DiggingUpThePast - actually you will want a drum kit with a midi output if you’re planning on using 3rd party engines such as Superior Drummer or EZ Drummer.
Pretty sure a USB output will only support an audio file such as a going into your DAW.
Having said that I’m also pretty sure that all electronic kits do have midi in/out.
Your cable will be a midi to USB for connecting to your computer.
my drums arent triggering midi sounds in my daw. they trigger midi when i have superior drummer open but trying to get it to do midi in my daw through ssd3 doesent work
You will need to drag that instrument onto your track
@@AdLaceStudios so I have it as an instrument track with my td-07 kit set. Then when I drag the superior drummer it replaces the td-07 it won't let me have both in the track and my drums don't trigger the midi sounds
I'm using a TD 30 but not Superior drummer. How do I get the instrument track to play my TD 30 back to me? Can't seem to find this info anywhere. I've set up an additional audio track for the outputs of the TD 30 so I can hear it when I play. I can see my recorded midi on the instrument track but it won trigger the TD 30 on play back.
Kentavious444 - Thanks for the comment and your support!
Pretty sure you will to set up the midi out back to your TD30 so it can use that sound engine.
Should be pretty straightforward.
Let me know if you’ve figured it out as this comment was 3 months ago.
@@AdLaceStudios Thanx for getting back to me. A little late, but I appreciate the effort. My problem was with the external instruments settings in Studio One. In order to get playback I had to change the input to "none". Otherwise I could see it but not hear it.
@@AdLaceStudios Actually I figured it out. I was thrown off by the way Studio One routes the midi signal. I was confused about the difference of "new instrument" vs, "new keyboard" in the set up menu. As it turns out, I have to record the midi as a "new instrument" but to have it play back on my MOTIF XS or on my Roland TD 30 I have to set the instrument track from "new instrument" to "none". Otherwise it will not play back my external midi instruments. Took me awhile before I accidentally figured it out. There was no mention of this in the product manual or anywhere else I looked.
@@Kentavious444 this is very cool to know ... thanks for that!
@@AdLaceStudios My pleasure. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has run across this problem. Most of the tutorials and things I've read on this always assume you use a virtual instrument when playing back midi. I have some great virtual instruments but I also have some great sounds on my keyboards and e-drums that I want to make use of.
Can you setup the sound in one track per drum/cymbal?
maruska estudios - Thanks for the comment and your support! I am glad you found this useful.
Yes you can definitely do this.
I do cover this in the following video.
ua-cam.com/video/RqENYz6OPYE/v-deo.html
@@AdLaceStudios yes! It was. Now I need to find out how the eliminate the sound delay I got. Thank you!
@@rfilianogmailcom
Here is a link to a video to setup your latency offset
ua-cam.com/video/unVeKf9TIhI/v-deo.html
Great instructions. Does this work with the free Prime version SO 8? Everything is OK until your virtual drum kitt showed on screen and mine didn't (using a Carlsbro kit) seems to be connected OK but nothing seems to respond after that. Hoping you can help. Thanks again.
this is driving me nuts... I hit my snare and I am getting a cymbal with it... I am ready to scream
How can I have the superior drummer?
Can we record without superior drummer, if yes then how ?
pranjal sarma - Thanks for the comment and your support!
Superior Drummer is a product made by Toontrack but you don’t need it to record drums. You can use your QWERTY keyboard, a midi controller etc. or you can just draw the notes in with your pen tool. You will need to load a vst instrument such as the MaiTai or Presence as a sound engine or sequencer though.
You know what, this isn't working either and it really sucks I feel I wasted my money
Rich Weir - Thanks for the comment and your support!
I see I missed this from the previous response.
Where is it exactly you’re hung up?
Should we set a FaceTime or something?
Why record as audio. You Drum controller should have a usb port. Connect the USB cable from drum controller to computer directly. now you can record as Midi, and you EZ Drummer. You can easily record into separate channels that will automatic split into tracks
John P Tenney - Thanks for the comment and your support!
Not sure I follow the question?
Yes you can use usb. I’m simply speaking to my Roland TD11KV and I always use midi because of latency issues.
Just a personal preference
Thank you!
Thank you
