    Three things I love about this one, Shawn: the music box analog (bonus ❤ for the music it makes!), the little circle to clear a filter (I never thought to try that), and selecting time signature first (also never thought of that).
    I consider myself intermediate on all of this and since I’m somewhat self-taught (with lots of guidance from ), I like to watch the beginner level stuff to catch the gaps in my journey. Rock on!

    Excellent content and, as in all the others, so well presented. I picked up my EZ Drummer 3, listened to many of your videos and within 15 minutes of opening the program for the first time last night, had put together a track! This weekend I begin adding these grooves to my original tunes. All thanks to you. Probably the best page I follow in terms of usefulness and ease of comprehension. I will certainly be supporting this channel.

    I don't know if I'm a "beginner" or not. If I was to use the frequency spectrum as a reference I'd probably say I'm in the low mids. But these beginner tutorials are great for me when I load up EZD3 and work along with you. A twelve minute video takes me 20 minutes to get through because I pause the video and play around with what you're showing, and I learn things I hadn't noticed before and definitely improve my work flow. Keep it up Shawn, I love your content.

    NB : side note : just realized the "muted" snare articulation in Superior Drummer (available on some kits, like : Avatar, Allaire (not available on Hit Factory sadly), etc), sounded like a moongel-ed snare and sounded absolutely badass for strong hits, instead of the normal "center" articulation
    EDIT : you can also control the ring of the snare with the envelope section of the snare, but it's not the same ! The envelope will shorten the ring but it's still there if you're using the "center" articulation, whereas the "muted" articulation (without touching the envelope) keeps the snare length but tames the ring

    Such a great comparison between the music box drum and midi!

    Thanks so much for another great video. This might be a difficult question to answer here but how well does ezdrummer handle changes in time signature in the middle of a song. garage band keeps wanting to put fills in the wrong place and it’s driving me crazy. 🍻

    • @ShootieSchool
      @ShootieSchool  Рік тому +1

      To my knowledge, Garageband doesn't handle Time Sig changes. EZdrummer 3 follows the Time Signature of your DAW. So the easy answer is that it's not possible.
      EZdrummer will handle Time Signature Changes. You can access the feature by Right-Clicking on the Ruler portion of the Song Track. SO you can figure it out. Hearing Garageband's metronome as EZD3 is doing Time Sig changes might not sound so great. Just about any other DAW could natively do this with EZ.

      The recorder I assume is Tap2Find. If so you can use those beats you make, just drag them from the Tap2Find drop zone to your EZD Song Track.
      If you're looking to make beats from scratch in the Grid Editor, the only videos I have are UA-cam Members videos. Nothing Public yet.
