Ezdrummer 2: Edit Play Style: It would be nice if the volume of a drum I select using mouse will be influenced by Velocity value
Let’s say I’m working on a loop of groove with Jazz Brush kit (swirls), I go to edit play style and set the velocity of the Snare drum to be low.
I hear the loop fine, but each time I go again by pressing mouse click on the Snare, my whole house is jumping and my boy wakes up because of this huge loud sound of the snare.
Why can’t I select a drum without having this loud sound? why couldn’t it be related to the velocity level I gave to the snare drum before?
Of course this question is related to all drums (snare was just an example)…

The problem is that velocity and volume is two different things.
– Volume is the volume for the channel where the drum’s microphone(s) are being sent. So raising the volume is the same as raising the volume on a real mixer when recording a drum.
– Velocity, on the other hand, is an emulation of how hard the drummer is hitting on the drum

You can right click an individual drum (on the main drum view) and lower it’s volume, or lower it’s microphone channels in the mixer, if it’s too loud throughout the entire song.

Hi, every time my layered snare plays back, the original snare plays one soft hit, and one loud hit. I did not select this. I’m sure this is an easy fix?

Anyone?

thanks 🙂
