Re: Audio clipping on output?

In cubase, turn the channel trim down a few db. What is probably happening is, since the sample is going to be the same volume as the hit that triggers it, you are clipping something later in the signal chain.

Re: Room faders

Cool. I've only been using it for about a month and I already have had to save 14 different versions of a single kick gog to accommodate the variations from song to song and session to session.

Room faders

For some reason, the position of the room faders doesn't save with the nuendo session. When I close a session and open it back up, it goes back to the position that is saved in the gog file and not where they were when the session was saved. Is this normal? It does the same thing when you copy and p...

How loud are the hits you are replacing? If the signal is approaching 0dbfs, it will only trigger the loudest hits.

Turn down the signal coming into Drumagog. If Drumagog won't trigger a lower signal, you need to lower the sensitivity until it does.

The easiest way to do this is to use Ddrum triggers when you record the performance. You can just plug them into you mic preamp like you would a mic. Beyond that, I've found that with fast stuff you need to turn off 'auto align' and use actual peak. The rest is just getting rid of as much bleed as y...

the snare samples in most libraries also include room ambience from overheads and room mics. This makes the snare sound more real, since a big part of a snares sound is picked up in the overheads.

If you move the snare and tom hits, you have to move them in the overheads as well. A little cutting and crossfading will clear all of that up.

@ Farview - are you saying that those are 100% replacements ? Yes. The only thing that was 'real' in that example were the overheads. If so, thats quite incredible with a normal mic! (what snare mic did you use BTW?) It was a 57. The main reason that it worked was because he wasn't playing much els...

If you are using Ddrum triggers, you should be able to set Drumagog to pick up everything by dropping the sensitivity. This shouldn't be a problem because there shouldn't be any bleed. This clip ( OddesyeRD3Demo ) uses Drumagog on all the drum tracks and has very quiet dynamic rolls that transition ...

Do you have stereo tracks in ptle? If you do, you can just record the snare to a stereo track and strap drumagog across it.

One thing that you might want to do when using triggers with drumagog is turn down the dynamic response to between 50% and 75%. This helps keep the dynamics of the performance a little more real sounding.

If you are using Cubase or Nuendo, you would just: 1. Create a stereo track 2. Drag the audio from the snare track to the new stereo track 3. Insert Drumagog on the stereo track. This assumes that the snare gogs you are using are stereo. All of the snare gogs on Rock Drums 2 and 3 are stereo and mos...

In cubase, double click on the snare track to bring up the editor. Right click and choose plugins and find drumagog. Set up drumagog with the snare you want and hit process. It is now permanent. The other way to do it is to freeze the track. It's kind of hard to explain, just look up freze track in ...

You will have to cut the cymbal track into parts and place them on individual tracks. (one for the ride, another for the crash, etc...) then you will have to set the resolution pretty high to keep it from double triggering. It is kind of time consuming, but it works pretty well.
