ABOUT ME
﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋
Hey! My name is Darryl Syms, and uh, well, I play guitar! I mean, I do a bunch of other cool things too - hopefully you can get to know me a little bit more through some of my videos.
On this channel, I predominantly post instructional videos to help inspire and encourage like-minded guitar players. My goal is to help you expand your musical vocabulary, to broaden your understanding of music, and to entertain. There are already thousands of guitar related videos out there, but I try to set my videos apart from the usual by exploring a modern approach, and by simply being myself! 💁♂️
Other than music, I have many other passions such as surfing, snowboarding, nutrition, advocating a vegan and sustainable lifestyle, yoga, photography, and a mixture of other things. Maybe you're interested in checking out my website: www.darrylsyms.com ✌️
I hope you enjoy what I have to offer, and I look forward to growing as a musician with you!
Thanks so much for reading! 💜

![[SAMPLE LIBRARY REVIEW] Superior Drummer 3](/img/n.gif)
Subscribed. Absolutely LOVED the guitar in the opening. Just gorgeous. Respect.
Great tutorial! Very easy to follow and understand [as a beginner with SD3]. THANKS
Awesome guitar vibes !!! Very inspiring .
This video is so good and very informative. Thanks mate
Great video Darryl! Thank you for taking the time to post it. I am just about to purchase SD3 and wondering if anyone out there knows how to arrange multiple tempo changes within the same project?
Nice edit and digging the moodier lighting 😉👌
Nicely done overview. Saved me a lot of time learning the overall abilities. Thanks!
Well presented Darryl. Granddad.
Thanx a million, mate!🔥🤙
great video, thank you for the information!
Thanks for this!
Got this running as midi out from my roland td-25 triggering the VST sounds and holy hell it's incredible!
thats what i have, a td25. i gotta figure out how to set it up with sd3 yet though. i hear its great.
Great info for a beginner like myself! Thanks
This is amazing. I’m using addictive drums at the moment but I think I’ll go ahead and get this because it sounds wicked!
I remember using AD many years ago! Enjoy man ✌️
I've used AD for years and now switched to SD3. It's been hard to let go of AD but wow, this goes a lot farther!
Amazing. Thank you!
super helpful - thank you!
Mahalo from Honolulu - was looking for a video for a friend that would quickly show off SD3 and... yours did it! Rock on!
Honolulu - sick! Mahalo to you too, and you’re welcome 😎
Dude, you've sold this to me after just the first two kits, the default one and the blues. I use Steven Slate Drums 5, and they're great, but the mixer options seem better and bleed options sound more natural to me than on SSD. I'll probably get SD3. I mean, I have leveled up my music composing, recording and mixing game.
Keep it up maestro
Hi Darryl, it was a very good tutorial..... however, I am already using SD3, installed it without the VST Pluggins, then eventually installed Cakewalk since I was not using any DAW. My problem is not using SD3, it is how to get Cakewalk to recognize it. Not your fault and I don't want to sound like I am complaining to you. I appreciate how well you explain, and teach. Thanks.... Danny
Really helpful
I meant to write this a while ago. I can't explain writing nothing but "3" three weeks ago. Anyway, this is a great video, extremely helpful to learn to navigate SD3. Darryl's videos are all high-quality tutorials, highly recommended. Plus he's a kick-ass guitar player! He helped me out with some question I had. Great guy. Thanks, Darryl!
Thanks Peter! 😃
i dont mean to be so offtopic but does anyone know a method to log back into an Instagram account?
I was stupid forgot the account password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me
@Harper Eliseo instablaster =)
@Zaid Lionel Thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and Im in the hacking process now.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Zaid Lionel it worked and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thank you so much, you saved my ass!
this looks amazing, i may buy this 😂
It’s really great software
awesome video homie well done. earned a sub too. great content yo
Thanks Evan!
Found the video because of the review, subscribed because of the guitar! 😄
Woohoo!
awesome vid man! question: can you customize your own drums? like pick and choose diff kicks, snares, cymbals, etc to your liking from all the available sounds. (without using tap 2) or is it just loops you can choose from
Yes! 😄
Thank you very much for this overgrown. I’m being new to this, and not being a drummer but a guitar player I have a question regarding guitar riff. Can I drag/play/download a guitar riff or entire songs with opening, verse, chorus, ending that I have already created and then superior drummer 3 offers different drum beats that could match with this guitar riff or song? With according to these different section of the song?
Thank you.
Potentially offering interns
Got halfway through the video and paused and bought it haha
Hi Darryl. Nice video. The song in the intro, is there a link to the full track? That's a very good groove and i love it.
Thanks a lot! Sure, search my channel for “The Spark”. It’s an approx 4-5 minute original song I put together 🙏
@@DarrylSymsthanks I’ll look it up
Your song Spark sounds amazing! What SD3 preset did you use or based it on? Can you some day make a video on how you mixed/master that song? It would be a great reference for the rest of us that are still learning. Thanks!
Thanks so much! Oh I’d love to, I just don’t consider myself to be a good enough producer at all to “teach” that, but maybe I can try my best. Good idea. I’ll note that on my ideas board and see what I can do. Subscribe so you don’t miss out 😎 As for the preset, I think it was based on “Nashville Rock” or one of its neighbouring presets from the list - I can’t remember off the top of my head
@@DarrylSyms subscribed! And maybe the fact you don’t feel good enough producer is a good thing, because you’ll approach things as a beginner and get an amazing end result. That’s what many of us, beginners, would like to see and need on production/mixing videos. It would be best if you run through one of your original songs from start to finish, since we already know what the produced song sounds like.
Noted, thanks man 👌 😄
I watched the intro like 5 times just so I could hear that guitar playing again, that was super crispy Darryl! Do you have a full track of that playing?
Thanks! That song is called “The Spark”. You can find the full original song on my Originals playlist 👌
Would I be able to use an e-drum kit with this and it record into Live 11?
hi, what is the use of invert phase (beside mute )in the mixer channel ?
What other product is recommended as background music to learn and play along with?
Hey Darryl, if I may ask: What model are your speaker stands? They look amazing, and I'm on the hunt for a pair of desk stands.
I made them myself 😄 Thanks!
Can you import custom wav samples into the kits?
Hi Darryl, can you tell me... can SD3 notate what you program into it or
would you rather export a midi file into a notator? Cheers.
The latter
For Darryl Syms: Great video. Question (for Darryl or anybody else who can answer): One of my pieces is in 9/8, but I didn't see this option. Is there a possibility to work with even odder time signatures like 7/8? And when yes, will there also be patterns suggested?
Good question! I don't have the program at hand right now so I would suggest sending Toontrack a message :)
Thanks for this!!!! I want this but it’s expensive.
It is pricey but it’s very worth it if you’re serious about drum samples!!
Can i thys VST Use for E Drum with Midi or USB per PC or per Interface.Thanks
Can you create your own grooves by writing your own beats? Can you vary the individual sounds (i.e. snare, kick, hi hat)
by step writing?
Yep
I learned allot from this video about SD, but after you create a drum track how do you incorporate it into the Logic Pro X to create the rest of the song ? I have created some things I like allot on Logic Pro X. but I am far from knowing the program. and I want to buy an electronic drum set so I can play my own drum parts on the songs I write. so I am interested in Superior Drummer. but I am wondering how you incorporate the Superior Drummer in with the Logic. in this video you were just inside of superior drummer. but once you create a drum track. how do you then ad the rest of the instruments and parts that are in logic to it ? or how do you move your drum track into Logic ? thanks
Not sure what your asking. There’s a point in the video where I demonstrate how the midi regions work in SD with Logic - it sounds like that answers your question?
Here to see if this is the tool for me to get some drums on my track on the go. But it worries me that after you made grid changes that you didn't play it back. My experience with both expensive and free open source products is that often you have to go in to each individual sound that you alter and edit out static sounds created when making changes. And because you didn't play it back after changing things in the grid editor i get a feeling that that's exactly the issue this software has as well. But there is just no way to be sure for me ???
$420.00 USD minus the optional SDD pre-loaded with the software, which adds another $200.00 to the final cost. Worth it? Yeah, for sure, but I've been spending all of my money on canned goods and ammo. 😅
😂
Hahaha same here 🙄 well ive made the switch to edged weapons and polearms. The ammo is for bartering. As is the mayonnaise and tuna stockpile
As Steinberg has stopped support for VST 2 , I wonder when Toontrack will finally make a VST 3 version!! Can't believe in 2022 it's still only VST 2
What’s the difference?
@@DarrylSyms You will no longer be able to use SD3 in Steinberg products as it will only see VST3 not VST2 .As for the difference i suggest Google for an in-depth comparison . They basically put less strain on your CPU as they only use it when they actually receive audio. The rest of the time they are snoozing for want of a better analogy :)
Interesting. Sounds like an inevitable necessity from advanced plugins like these!
modo drum or sd3 ?
I wonder if SD3 ever goes on sale
Not that I'm aware of unfortunately :/
Can you play the entire song with your mouse and have the program correct it for you? Maybe do snare and kick first and then layer in cymbals and fills as you go?
I hope you've found your answer by now, but yes you can! you'd just hit the record button at the bottom of the plug-in and then click the kit pieces. after that you can then go into the midi grid editor and clean it all up.
I didn't have a choice but to subscribe. Great tutorial video.
But I have a problem. I'm a producer with no knowledge of physical drums. So please help me. How can I use those drums in the GROOVE session of Superior drummer? And can I edit and create something different with it?
Pls I need answers asap. Thanks 🙏
Don't forget please, I'm using FL studio 20
Drop Toontack a message and they’ll be glad to assist 👌
Do you hook up your e drums to this program ? Or is this all on computer ?
I don’t have drums, so it’s best to ask Toontrack
@Bamaland if you need a portable pad set, try Korg Nanopad
can you send individul channels to external DAW?
Sure, just create a multi input channel
Can we use this with an actual drum kit with mic’s?
Yes you can send the kit through SD3 and then re-sample it if you don’t like your recorded sound
what lights are those in the background
Looks like a regular vintage incandescent bulb and some cheapo RGB strips strapped to the back of my desk
What about rolls ??...there are any preload rolls to use?
Yep, they’re real good in my opinion 😊
@@DarrylSyms Thank you, I'm new to using this software, and IDK why nobody talks about how to implement rolls in a specific section. But thanks for answering, is good to know that they are available... my work is to figure it out where they are and how to use them..lol Thanks again
How do I open superior drummer 3 in a DAW. I have tried a couple DAWs and I cannot find it as a VST Please give me some advice!
That depends what DAW you're using, and whether or not you've installed the VST properly. It should be super easy
@@DarrylSyms i figured it out thanks
@@AndrewJPlays
So tell us!!!!
😎
@@almas7123 ua-cam.com/video/CByHPXk3Flw/v-deo.html this guy showed me how to find the dowloaded SD3 files so that when Im in reaper I can open them as a VST
how does one learn how to run this plugin??
You Tube videos.

Scottish/Australian/American?
Way off. WAKANDA FOREVER
@@DarrylSyms Fuck you're from SA? I almost had a feeling but holy shit, where from?
No haha, I’m an outlier from the south west countryside of the UK 😋
@@DarrylSyms Okay good, thank fuck, the vowels and the Rs, I was trying to justify it
3:24,
I don't understand this program at all. Been playing with it all day and haven't been able to figure out a single thing and the manual online is no help at all. When I use tap two and tap out a beat that matches my song it finds NO RESULTS except in the Country category not matter what beat I create.
Really? I've found it to be the easiest and most fun drum plugin ever. I love the Toontrack stuff! I'm not paid to say that btw... I wish I was ha
superior drummer is great but you need a pair of sticks and some Vdrums....it's still drums right. you don't guitar with a mouse and keyboard
I use a guitar, mouse, and keyboard. It works for me 🤷♂️
yeah but you don't play guitar with a mouse right@@DarrylSyms
*your drums sound like crap@@DarrylSyms
Thank you 🥰
Four hundred bucks. Cheaper than a drum kit and ten mics/stands/cables. And who has an acoustically perfect space to use at will? Or, for that matter, a talented drummer? But four hundred bucks...
I feel you!
Exactly
Great video!
no resources seem to have been installed please reinstall superior drummer 3
No… get rid of searching groove menus. The number one murderer of inspiration is searching for a groove. I’m a the stage in my creative life where I can’t tolerate searching menus or fidgeting for more than 2-3 minutes. Any more than that and I shut down the project.
Each to their own 💁♂️
@@DarrylSyms it’s their flagship software… does it not have any AI listening capabilities?
Nope. Perhaps they will integrate it as it’s AI integration seems to be the hype. Though it’s controversial to use AI in art 🤷♂️ Do I want it? Eh, it could be fun to play with. I don’t speak on behalf of everyone though so do ping them your suggestion if it’s something you’re interested in 🙏
@@DarrylSyms hmm, it’s more to help speed up the creative process… not to just take over creativity. I used to use toontrack drum products religiously… since the onset of EZ. After years and years of producing inside the box, the biggest burn out is scouring menus. I went back to tracking real kits, software drums started just feeling more and more clinical.
There is a tap in option in superior, yes? Where as you tap in the beat that in your head and it compiles or narrows the search? Is there a full walkthrough video on sup3
@clemdog76 there is a tap function yes. The organisation of grooves in my opinion is very straight forward and easy to use. I love how they’re organised. I hate long lists of endless items, but Toontrack have done well with their organisation.
I don’t work for Toontrack, so I can’t point you in any other direction than their website or Google/UA-cam search unfortunately 👍
