Of course there are better kits with mesh heads, but most drummers that record in my studio say they prefer the rubber pads when tracking. Ive set up different kits via Superior Drummer and Logic X, and most drummers are very surprised at the amount of articulation that comes from such an inexpensive kit. Today I record everything using an inexpensive Alesis DM6 as a trigger with nothing more than a USB printer cable to my computer. But when e-drum/midi kits got to where they are now, all that changed. Well I guess because the process of spending hours mic’ing a drum kit never was all that appealing to me. I can say without hesitation that I am not an engineer’s engineer. PreBussed sends Kicks to a bus, Snares to a bus, Ambience channels to a bus, etc.įor multi-out, you would need to set the busses to different outputs.Maybe its just me, but if youre going to the extent of utilizing drum samples to create room sound, and even a small room sound = reverb, then why mic an acoustic drum kit at all. Mono Close and Mono Far are panned center.įor multi-out, you would need to set the individual channels (Kicks, Snares, Hats, etc) to different outputs. Overheads, Ambience and Chamber are panned hard L & R. Neither have any processing and the toms and hats are panned to reflect their relative kit positions. When using Metal Foundry, go to the EZ Mixer tab > All Mixer and select Default or PreBussed. Do I need to flat out and clean up all the strips with the mouse/manually in Metal Foundry? With Superior Drummer 2 NY Avatar I can go to the EZ Mixer tab and select FLAT MULTIOUT, but I don't have that option in Metal Foundry. I just tried Metal Foundry and I was wondering if there is an easy way to clean up the mixer from all the processing and panning/levels?
