If you get a great track whose tempo varies all over the place, you can still stretch loops bar-by-bar and match it, giving a sort of live sound loops usually don't have. Othewise you can compute bpm = 60000 / ms as many times as you need, depending on how much your tempo varies. Ie, When my recorded real bass drum is played it plays a sampled bassdrum from EZdrummer I dont like my bass drum sound so I'd like to replace it with a bassdrum sound from DKFH. But REAPER isn't settled in its treatment of tempo, and doesn't yet have a tempo track. Im wanting to know if I can use the EZdrummer samples for my real drum recordings. drummermandan02 just go with the d4 or DM-5 and you'll be fine, unless you want to spend much much more on a much better DDRUM, Roland, or whatever drum module. What i was explaining was the difficulty of getting a plug-in to recognize the rim shots.
I don't know what other software does this - I would hope most MIDI sequencers, especially notation ones, do something similar. Yes the roland td-3 has dual and one triple zone pads. I'm an old Cakewalk user, and Cake has a function to derive a tempo map from a click track. Move the MIDI events to where it sounds like the beats are.Īs what to DO with this track, well. It's also easy to fix if bits are a little off. Now I have a track that's easy to work out tempo from.
You can also use a MIDI drum or keyboard. iMac Logic Pro X 10.4.8 EZ Drummer 2 + DKFH (all updated) logic-pro. It works better if I can play along - I tap more accurately. I use a fancier system, recording a MIDI footpedal I can tap either while playing (if I remember) or as an overdub. When you can't get one tempo to follow farther, insert a new click source - just don't overlap them. Wow, combined with the included midi files and packs that you can purchased from it is the ultimate tool for those wishing to put together some drum tracks on the fly. Insert a click source in a new track, drag it to the beginning of your playing, stretch it, and tweak its tempo until it follows for as long as possible. Even though I mostly use DFHS, I recently purchased EZdrummer which is from the same company that makes DFHS.
