You won’t regret it, it’s a great add-on (and I’m using Superior Drummer!).

…beyond playing it in on pads or sideswiping the velocities in your MIDI editor, Pipe, I don’t think so.

I just grit my teeth and bear it when I need to program dynamics in. At least we have the tools now to reproduce good drum tracks…

Surely the preset, if used with the drum library it is intended for,should sound exactly like the example??

If not, I would suggest a trades description infrigement. Someone explain if I’m barking up the wrong tree here…

So ironically, this software now would only be available to the pirates? Awesome…..

That doesn’t make sense to stop it. All a customer needs is a copy of the DVD(s) and for the supplier to sell them a serial number (I presume it’s authorised in the same manner as other SDXs?).

How does discontinuing it stop the pirates?

I’ve whinged about the authorisation process in the past, and yes, it’s a pain when you’d rather be doing something else

…but I’d rather go through that to know that TT actually get a revenue stream from the software and the quality and support stay good.

I feel better about paying for a software package too,  knowing that half the people I deal with haven’t downloaded it for free from some torrent site.

Just bear with us please, support, on the few times we’re grinding teeth and spitting sparks, because we really need to be getting on with making music.

Select all and then “un-select” the ghost notes?

Just an idea…

just select the notes you want to quantise. Quantising all will surely suck the life out of your playing?

You can drag an instrument to anywhere on the construct screen, but it is unconnected with how it sounds, it’s stereo panning or the way that it interacts with the mxer or mics. You can add an instrument so that it is completely dry, no bleed into overheads, ambients or other mics -bring it out to its own channel in your DAW and you can add your reverb.

Are you objecting to the x-drum process? It does seem a little involved at first, but when you realise what it’s marrying together it isn’t a bad user interface for the control and flexibility available. The construct screen (for me) is really only a pretty picture to remind you what you’re using and to impress your clients.

I would presume here, that you would get (eg) snare1 from Avatar with the ambience recording of snare2 from Allaire? -seeming as snare1 wasn’t recorded in the other room. I hope that makes sense…

I must admit I hadn’t thought of this as a creative possibility with SD
