Nabeel Ansari Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Tune it, filter it, rez it, modulate it, pan it... so good. Doing that stuff in the piano roll is awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ectogemia Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Doing that stuff in the piano roll is awful. But: You just need to learn to use it effectively. Just saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabeel Ansari Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 But:Just saying. I'm sure we could fire that back and forth. However, he's already stated he doesn't like mousing things in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legion303 Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I have an original Rock Band 1 kit; would that actually work? If so, how accurately does it record the velocity of the performance? I wrote up something on getting the 360 RB1 drums working in Windows a while back: http://ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?t=31944 Velocities seem to work well, but I'm not sure how many levels there are.

Damashii!! Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 keyboard drums here as well. wouldn't mind using this though http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4T-cTz0xA4&feature=player_detailpage#t=32s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hale-Bopp Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 I do a combo of mouse clicking and midi keyboard performing to get the drum "notes" in place, then quantize where necessary. Since I'm kinda lazy and I absolutely hate mixing, I go with EZ Drummer (Nashville EZX drum kit is the best thing ever) for most of my work since the samples come pre-mixed, pre-EQ'd, etc. They basically sound great right out of the box. That way I can concentrate on the other stuff I enjoy doing most without much hassle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister_Riff Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I use Superior Drummer 2.2 and the piano roll in Pro Tools ... This might sound a little crazy but I rearranged the trigger notes of the piano roll so it's fully to my taste ... I did this in Superior Drummer by changing the trigger notes ... I used to program my drums in Guitar Pro, import them and change them around but learned to use the piano roll since I wasn't happy with my workflow! I also have a vast catalogue of midi that certainly helps when programming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC Ricers Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I hardly use the step sequencer other than some claps and kicks. I do subtle variations in pitch with hi hats and snares on the piano roll. Most of my patterns are more complex than just 4 beats long anyways. Especially for swinging/shuffling beats, there's no way you can do that precisely playing it by key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SapSpecial Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Some times sliced samples in FL Slicer or just practice making drum patterns. Took a quite a while for me to get the hang of it. Playing drums does help the process. as for samples you can bend them and twist them, just experiment.
