Drumkit From Hell Superior is the creme de la creme, but it's also over 35 Gig and is very expensive. It comes with a very clunky sampler, and is buggy as hell.
#Drumkit from hell superior drum sounds not right series#
One word of warning: some collections like the Drumkit from Hell series do NOT use the General Midi mappings, so you'll end up finding that the sounds get all mixed up if you try it this way.Īs for the drums, I would definitely recommend the drumkit from hell samples, however take care to avoid the Drumkit from Hell 2 package, if they even sell it anymore. Once you've got your drum tracks figured out, you can now use the MIDI track you created to trigger a sampler of some sort to substitute some high-quality drum samples for the general midi sounds. Now, you can plug in your drum beats one note at a time, just like a drum machine. You should get an assortment of drum sounds. Once you've created the MIDI file, and set the midi output to GM drums, open up your piano roll editor in your recording app, and scub your cursor up and down the keys. A cheap-o soundcard will solve this problem for under $30, but it won't really add much as far as the rest of the sound card is concerned. This is probably why you're getting so frustrated.
If you are using onboard sound, there is a good chance you do not actually have any GM (general midi) drumsounds on your computer. In general though, here's what you need to do.įirstly, you need a midi track. From what I've seen, the midi functions in Cubase are one of the worst things about the software. He's even been known to answer readers' questions via email.ģ) Drums: For recording drums, things can be a little tricky. The books are excellent, easy to read, and Scott himself is the man. Then, drop about $20 at a bookstore for the "Sonar Power!" book by Scott Garrigus.
I would advice taking people up on the offer to get a copy. You can make some really good sounding recordings, but in the end the learning curve ain't worth it (as you are seeing)Ģ) Sonar is great. Clunky interface, and a sound engine from the middle ages.
