Hey Guys! I have been around for quite sometime with Toontrack products.
Started out many years ago with DFH, and tried it with my Roland. Never got it too work fine, the latency was giant.
What i used then was a midisport 1×1. I also remember i couldnt get all my pads to sound, and the dynamics was terrible. There was none! Same hit for each pad, haha. I used Battery back then if i remember correctly, so in otherwords it was very limited. I think it had to do with the midisport not having enough channels, but i’m not sure.
However i wonder now, what usb interface should i get to be able to use Superior (i’m going to upgrade to superior 2.0) without latency/less latency?? And have a nice dynamic range, say i hit the snare drum from low velocity to heavy punches, and so on. I mean does that even work with TD6-KW???
I hope it does!! How about the toms?? dynamic range there too?
Thanks if replying!! 🙂
If you're a swede click my blogg if you're not click it anyway i get paid for doing the best swedish internet jokes on the Internet.
Hi,
your TD-6 kit should work just fine.
Some limitations, like a dual trigger Ride but you will be able to squeeze pretty much out of it together with Superior 2, provided you have:
– a fairly new computer with at least 2GB RAM (you will find the minimum specifications on the Superior 2 product page)
– an ASIO Audio/MIDI interface with well written drivers
Toontrack solo (which is a free host to registered users) can be used as your host software so you won’t have to use a DAW like Cubase or Sonar if you need to run Superior 2 for live use.
Toontrack solo will also give you very low latency, provided you have those things mentioned above. With my Mac Pro and my Toontrack solo/Roland TD-12/Hart Pro setup I think I can get away with somewhere around 1,5 ms latency.
I can’t really recommend any specific hardware but I’m sure other users will chime in and share their experiences.
Best Regards,
John
