    AD2 is absolutely phenomenal. I’ve been using it for a couple years and it’s just amazing. Super-realistic and extremely powerful for those of us who can’t mic up kits anymore.

    Absolutely hands down, the fastest most informative instruction of how to use AD2. Thank you so much for this.

    Pete is absolutely right. The best DAW is the one you feel most comfortable with. In my case that is Sonar, which has AD2 already included.
    I love Addictive Drums 2 and if anybody asks about a good drum software, I highly recommend this one.

    • @MixBetterNowTV
      @MixBetterNowTV 7 років тому +1

      Guido Rehder That's awesome that Sonar comes with AD2! All DAWs really are fantastic these days. Great to hear you're digging it! 😁 - Pete

    Wow, this video came just in time! I'm a beginner and last night I was trying to mix ezdrummer for my track. This video showed me how wrong I was doing things.
    Instead of routing the drum tracks directly to the buss and from there to master fader, I was routing the tracks to the master fader and also to the buss. After watching this video I find the reasons behind the last night's total disappointment:)
    Thank you Warren and Pete!

    Very nice presentation Pete. I will mention that working within AD2 is a great way to go too if one gets familiar with and explores all the various FX available to sculpt the kit. I feel one is limiting the power of the plugin by not taking advantage of everything that's available within it. all those FX are blended in thru AD's Master (which isn't really a master but a fader for all the FX).

    Ok, great. Thank you! Can someone explain if it is possible to go back to instrument track and make changes and then go back to audio and still have all plug-in and effects on channels undisturbed? When I go back to instrument and back to audio, then everything is lost, and I need to make all mixing again.

  • @joeguitar75
    @joeguitar75 6 років тому +1

    One thing I don't get is why he said, that he wanted the raw sound of the kit and then only turned off the fx at the master channel - when routing to individual outputs you are bypassing the Addictive Drums master channel anyway. But all the fx on the individual tracks (eq, compression,...) were NOT turned off and so ended up on the Studio one track channel. So they were anythingbut dry.

    @abolit 4 роки тому

    why did you have to convert vst instrument tracks to audio each time for applying compressors and EQs? Could you do the same thing w/o conversion and convert vst's at the end before mixing down the whole thing? BTW great tutorial. Thank you!

  • @sdbanotts
    @sdbanotts 2 роки тому

    Good video thanks. Didn't notice but did you leave all the compession/eq from AD2 on the individual kit pieces? I noticed you turned them off for the master fader, but not sure you did for each kit piece? Which means if not, on that preset presumably the kit pieces already had processing from AD. Cheers, and thanks for the video.

  • @andresstoner5839
    @andresstoner5839 Рік тому

    Awesome video and lots of info just one question, is there a way to get a fader for the cymbals/or crash? Instead of just the hihat? Because when is about mixing the same EQ applied to the hihat affects the cymbals or crash and the sound becomes “flat instead of excitement or energy “ thanks

  • @miserablesod1
    @miserablesod1 7 років тому +1

    As usual, a great video from Pete. I may be making the move to Studio One soon, so this was quite influential as I use AD in pretty much all of my arrangements. Just one thing; I know that you can convert stereo tracks to mono after the midi to audio transfer, but is there no way of determining this before you commit? In PT, I would set up, for instance, 4 mono aux/audio channels and 2 stereo aux/audio channels for the kit and that way you don't get stereo WAV files on all the tracks...

    Hey Pete, thanks for the tutorial! Iearned a lot! But why did you leave out the bus while re-routing?

    • @MixBetterNowTV
      @MixBetterNowTV 7 років тому +1

      Thanks, Dominic! I'm glad you liked it :-) I left out the "bus" track from AD2 because it essentially serves no purpose. Its just a placeholder. My whole point was I wanted to mult out each individual drum to its own track so I could approach mixing like I do a normal acoustic drum kit. Since I use a drumbuss for that I just set one up in S1 (or whatever DAW youre in) instead. Hope that helps! :-)
      - Pete

    • @dominiclanfer2522
      @dominiclanfer2522 7 років тому

  • @michaeldouglas2634
    @michaeldouglas2634 6 років тому

    How do you change it back to midi without loosing any of the plugs that you put on when it was audio? In my overheads the ride cymbals level is to high and needs to brought down, but have to go back into the overheads midi to do so. When I change it back and forth the plugins are not there any more. Great video by the way and really helped a lot.

  • @ognevsky
    @ognevsky 7 років тому

    I used Studio1 and Logic for that for some time, but I liked the Pro Tools way more.
    So, in Pro Tools you can route your drums directly to Audio tracks. In Studio1 and Logic you must have both Aux tracks and Audio tracks (as you can't set an Instrument as Input for Audio track, so for Kick you would have Kick Aux and Kick Audio).
    So, there is no mess with that in Pro Tools, like it.
    But anyway thanks for the video!

  • @lazloaluisa1906
    @lazloaluisa1906 7 років тому +1

    Thanks for the great video Pete (and to you Warren for presenting it). So glad that it seems possible to break down and convert midi so easily without having to write complex midi maps or even know much about them.
    Are these "placeholder tracks" that you demonstrated also midi tracks for the individual instruments or are they something other than this (just a "place holder")? If they are something else, is it possible to just as easily get individual midi instrument tracks aside from the main midi track? Finally, would one be able to make and save copies/duplicates of individual midi tracks?

    • @Producelikeapro
      @Producelikeapro  7 років тому +1

      Thanks very much Lazlo! I will see if Pete can answer that question for you! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

    • @MixBetterNowTV
      @MixBetterNowTV 7 років тому +1

      Hey Lazio! The place holder tracks aren't MIDI tracks... They're essentially acting like auxes or busses. The way that you could get individual MIDI tracks (as opposed to the main MIDI track) would be to print the audio and then use the audio to MIDI function. Lastly, yes, you can save copies and duplicate any midi track :-) Hope that helps!

    Great tutorial...cleaned up a lot of my confusion on certain things. But a question regarding the convert to audio/instrument.
    Can this process be used to convert audio loops to midi? Why do I ask?
    Because, often times I will find really great audio drum loops, but I want to spice them up, add in a tom hit or a reverse cymbal or whatever. I'm curious if I can convert audio drum loops to midi, edit and then expand out to individual tracks using this process. Thanks. Looking forward to your reply. And yes I hit the like button.

      Hey Martin! Thanks for watching :-) I don't think S1 can convert drum loops to MIDI. Not yet anyway ;-) It'd be amazing if it could!

      You are right it can't. However, Home Studio Trainer hipped me to using Melodyne to actually do this. I don't have Melodyne but thought you might want to know. Single note situations Melodyne will do it. but polyphonic stuff gets difficult.

      you're absolutely right... melodyne sure can! :)

    What if you already have MIDI tracks and have imported them into S-one-5 and you are NOT using the AD2 internal beats?
    I can't get it to transform to audio correctly. Thoughts, please? Thanks!

    Hello Warren and Pete! I am an happy AD2 user, and this video is soooo useful! Just a question for Pete: I didn't clearly understand from the video...when you mix drums, do you also EQ, compress also the singles kitpieces, or only the drum bus channel, as shown?

    Nice starter tutorial, Pete. Thank you! Does AD2 also contain: intros, fills, and outros?
    I wonder why XLN Audio doesn't test/certify ADN 2 as Studio One compatible? That had me a bit worried until I saw this tutorial.

    • @MrMOGHammer

      some if not most of the midi pack samples will have intros, verses, chorus, fills, bridge, and all that good stuff, you can select separately.

    I am new into production, so please bear with me with the following question? What's the reason for transforming the MIDI drums into Audio? Can't we just mix it in MIDI format and export the song that way? Should I transform my MIDI piano notes into Audio also? thanks in advance.

    • @Producelikeapro
      @Producelikeapro  7 років тому +2

      Marvellous question! I like being able to mix the Additive drums audio the same way I would a live drum kit! I hope that clarifies? Also it's easier to give people audio tracks if it is to be remixed, not everyone has the same plug ins.

    • @Fuiape

      Hi, I was watching this video again for learning properly and now I can say, from my experience, that transforming things to audio once you are finish writing, in Studio One this will make the CPU performance way much lower. If I don't get things into audio my CPU will create bumps and crashes while I write. The only thing I am unsure now is if I should pick stereo or mono sometimes though. :s

  • @sleekitwan

    Thanks for this, you've packed a lot in, appreciate it. Just got Studio One 4 pro during the sale week Nov 2018, and this vid shows a lot more than just drums, it really lays out all sorts about Studio One practicalities, and stuff about recording/panning and so on, I never knew. It does strike me, how little use is made of stereo in most albums/tracks, and the attention to detail for the drums is making a proper job of it. I once did a mildly decent amount of effort for one track, into the drums alone - a guitarist said he hated the track but could he have a copy of my drums please?! Thanks again, this is the real McCoy.

    ok thanx , subscribed to your chanel. but if i like to do drumbits by myself can i record each track seperatly on midi editor and then render it? or i must record all the drums on one track first?

  • @user-ij5rs7xq5y
    @user-ij5rs7xq5y 7 років тому

    Awesome video thanks for all the information! I have one question, how would you go about panning to audience perspective while doing this procedure of mixing down audio files of the kit, would you have to split the overheads and rooms and flip them etc. Thanks!

  • @jimglunt9864

    I love Addictive Drums 2, but I exclusively use Pro Tools (12.5 at this time) on PC. I have nothing against Studio One, it's just that I have neither the money to purchase another DAW nor the time to learn another one. That being said, is it possible to do something like this in Pro Tools as well? And if so, would it be possible to record a tutorial video of it? The process looks amazing and would save me beaucoup time. Thanks

    • @MixBetterNowTV
      @MixBetterNowTV 7 років тому +2

      Jim Glunt Hey Jim! Although here I'm teaching and working in S1, I too use Pro Tools. You can absolutely run each individual drum out to an audio track or aux, but it's not as quick and easy to specifically go from MIDI to audio as well as the time it takes to set it up. I'm in no way saying one is better than the other, it's just different. The way I'd do it in PT would be to rout each kit piece to an Aux where you'd be then able to apply processing. If you want it as audio you'd have to bus it and print it to audio (as far as I'm aware). Hope that helps! 😊 - Pete

    Hello, great tutorial, thank you, it sounds now more realistic ;)
    but what's about the -16db "security" level you said in another tuto ? You're at 0dB on the Drums tracks.
    Do I have to decrease dB level fader on every drums kit on addictive drums before to reach that -16dB level ?
    Thank you

    Excellent Video! Give Tanx! I would like to understand what is happen once you choose to check the "remove Instruments" while using the "Transform Instruments Track" feature. If it's removing the Instruments and I gain therefore more CPU power which is nice, but if I would like to go back and make some changes again (in MIDI) , is it still possible to transform the Audio back to MIDI again? Sorry I am not English. Hope you understand what I am trying to ask! Doc!

  • @michaeldouglas2634
    @michaeldouglas2634 6 років тому

    What is the idea recording level Addictive Drums should be at coming into Studio One? The reason I ask is that I tried it like you showed and just about every one clipped. When recording if it goes above 0 it clips right? Thank you.

  • @ikigai47

    Once you "transform to audio track," you lose all ability to use midi to make more drum sounds. How would I get around this? Or do I just wait to "transform to audio track" when I'm 100% done playing all drum parts on my keyboard? (but even then what if I have to manually edit a drum part I ended up not liking?)

    Hmmm, when I transform the audio back to an instrument track, make my edits, and then transform back to audio, I lost all my sends and inserts that were set for the various individual drum pieces (using Studio One 5). I suspect I'd lose automation as well, but I'm not using any in my current project so didn't test this. Any thoughts on how to keep the drum routing intact as I move back and forth between audio and midi?
