You’d be best to route the OH mics of the Core Library cymbals to their own channel and process them separately to match that of the SDX. You can then send all the channels to a bus for further processing.

It probably got corrupted. Try and see if you can load it in parts to salvage what you can and rebuild the rest.

This is my main go to SDX. I’m using it right now in a few songs.

although well worth its price, if you got an email with a 20% off coupon, now would be a good time to get it. I’d take advantage of it for one of the other SDX’s, but 2020 wasn’t such a great year to allow it. I can’t complain about the BF deals the past two years however (love the Roots library).

All I can think of is to check and see if your input mapping has changed. I sometimes got this when switching library‘s while hooking  SD3 to Logic’s Drummer track. It changed the input map from Logic Drum Designer back to Default.

The reason for that is obvious: you posted about it here. 😀

Just tell the PM to download all updates. It will know which ones to get based on your products and computer platform. From there you can select you products and have the PM install the updates.

Not seeing this situation here. All I can think of, is to verify whether your note in the Grid Editor is falling within the groove. Without seeing any examples, the only thing that comes to mind is that the note is being pushed a little too far forward.

Are you referring to the piano role in your DAW, or the grid editor in SD3? It’s a little ambiguous.

You could create those yourself if you’re are one hell of a drummer.

of course, the drum programmer in me can only agree in part. 😉

Even for as long as I have been doing it (long enough to show my grandchildren the art of drum programming), I find myself doing it less these days because there are so many great midi drum groove packs. Why should I waste my time programming something to sound in the style of Kenny Aronoff, when I can simply open the Kenny Aronoff groove pack and create some music?  Sometimes, I simply find myself grabbing a groove and a guitar (or bass guitar), and jamming away. I also find that I have enough room for experimentation with edit play styles, grid editor and groove parts. Thus, I can still program a customize groove when I still need it and still make it fit in the song.

As far as the sounds in the EZX goes for me, I often buy them for the more unusual sounds that you would not find in an SDX. For traditional drums, I will often reach for an SDX, especially for certain producers/engineers. However, that is more a context related to the song at hand.

Agreed! “Dirtying” drums is by far the easiest to do. Not to mention a few options within SD3 for different effects.

I don’t think that I would say that this particular solution would be that immediate, especially if you don’t play drums. Not only are you throwing money into that, but you also have to throw a lot of time into it. I think if you spent a little more time learning your Maschine studio controller, you would probably get things done a lot faster. The beauty of the pad controller is that you don’t have to think of it in the same manner as a drum kit. You can arrange the pads in any which way you want to suit your playing style, with a special group for fills, and change articulations by changing groups without ever having to adjust your playing. For example, you can switch out the hi hat for the ride cymbal.

Considering that you are also dealing with 10 fingers, you can set up the pads to accommodate various types of finger rolls and rudiments (many people make the mistake of believing that they have to have every single type of articulation in a single pad group). The beauty of the Maschine controller is the ability to switch pad groups on the fly.

Tap-2-Find is the one part. After you audition the groove you’re looking for, you can then paste the part over the groove in whole or part. If it doesn’t work, you can always undo. Perhaps one o two more steps but certainly not arduous.

I like the groove and the overall song.

The mix itself seems a bit busy, however. I also think that there is a bit too much echo on the vocals in the lead guitar. It almost confuses the mix. As well, the vocal sound a bit too “autotune-ish“ to my ears. Not sure if you used any, but it sounds that way to me.

Yes, you are correct in that sense, as it appeared that you were talking about midi as opposed to audio.

as far as Audio goes, you should just be able to set up a multi channel instrument and route it within Logic’s mixer via the aux channels. As far as your last step goes, it sounds like you were trying to do a parallel routing. For that, you would take your auxiliary input and route the output to a bus that feeds two parallel aux channels.

I would say once you are done setting that up, save it as a template.

BEST ANSWER

You can already create folders in the user midi section and drop your grooves in there. I do the same thing, by creating folders of songs that I have been composing grooves for.
