    Thanks so much for that.This inspired me to build a "custom ReaGate E-Drum kit". Can't play drums at home and can't afford an e-drum kit, so I placed 2 mics (1 to the floor next to my right foot, one on top of my desk). Mic 2 got a frequency split, so now I can record drums stomping on the floor as kick, the desk's top (with hands) as snare (resonant at 100-200 Hz) and a pen on my coffee cup (big resonance at 6kHz) as hihat. Great for building beats. Having more than 2 inputs you could do so much more...

    Someone has an idea how to do this, it happened to me that once I succeeded, and I saw in a video, for example to make a copy of the track of a kick that sounds bad, and in the other replace it with the ReaSamOmatic5000, but the question is that he managed to make the blows dynamic as is the original. I forgot how to do it and I can't find the video I saw that time that explained it: c

      I used to produce RAP tracks with my Akai MPC60 and this equipment has a feature that I never found in other sampler but, it may be there with another approaching, different name, or something...
      You can assign the velocity directly to the sample sound start point.
      As harder you hit the trigger (pad, keyboard key), sooner the start point plays that sound.
      It simulates a real drum sound.
      Hitting hard, you get more transients.
      Hitting softer, the sound starts off the transients, more, let's say, "inside" that sound.
      You miss the transient when hitting softer.
      So it sounds softer, too.

    • @K0kEEE
      @K0kEEE 3 роки тому +1

      when you're working with more then one sample, you'll have to be specific with which midi channel you use for each sample. So just go through the same steps, but for each sample everytime you go to set the midi channel, set it to a specific one. for example you use midi channel 1 for kick, then midi channel 2 for snare.

    • @djabthrash
      @djabthrash Рік тому

      If you are REPLACING and not BLENDING, then use multivelocity samples that have ghost notes built into them (and that will trigger at small velocities).

    I can't figure out how to record wave files on each individual track from my VSTI midi on channel one. I use Superior Drummer and I can get the multi channel routing set up but I want to print the wave files for each track (kick,snare,etc.) and I can't figure out how to do it. When I hit record enable the audio goes away and records nothing. Any ideas?

    Kenny, is there a way to do the reverse? To trigger a sample from the gated sound? So typically it could be the hihats for example? Maybe a different plugin is needed for that instead?

      I wrote that comment 4 months ago....I now have no idea what I was talking about!? hehe ;-)
      It does sound confusing, I agree. I think what I meant was, to trigger the a sample from the sound that is NOT being heard as a result of the gate (ie for me, that's the gated sound!). In this video, the trigger is the sound that the gate is letting through, so the kick drum and the snare bleed is being 'gated'.
      So to be totally clear and practical, in this example, it would be to trigger a sample from the bleed through of the snare we can hear on that kick track.
      Why the hell I wanted that...no idea! haha :-)
      I guess to trigger a snare sample as well and end up with a kick and snare being resampled and not just the kick.

    • @djabthrash
      @djabthrash Рік тому

      @@chumbo You have to process your source track so that the trigger plugin detects the hits better.
      ex : if you wanna trigger snare sounds from a kick track with snare bleed, maybe highpass the kick track quite a bit to make it sound less like a kick and have more snare sound in the source track , etc.

    I've tried this several times but have never gotten the end result to be sample accurate. I always end up having to go in and re-alien the hits as the play back eventually drifts. Yeah in principle it should work but it has never worked for me. Good video anyway.
