- Gating and Triggering acoustic drum track after recording with Sonar X3 and Addictive Drums 2. In the second part of our video series we are going to look at triggering techniques and gating techniques for drums to get that really fat drum sound.

Ignore comments like someone saying using a camcorder is amateur. Your stuff is helpful and that kinda negativity is a waste of our time :)
These videos are very helpful. Thanks so much for taking the time to put these together!
Incredible video, and series! Thanx x a million ! I love Sonar X3!
These were my first videos...So I will work on getting better at recording them lips smacking, going slow, etc. I do appreciate the feedback. If you don't know what you are doing wrong you cant get better.
Good job my man! Keep up the videos.
Bit late to this video/playlist. I thought it was excellent.
Unfaithful devil would be perfect!
Shataya, The original is using the acoustic kick track to trigger Addictive Drums. Just copying the original drum to a midi track doesn't work well because you really need to grab the audio transients, and just the audio transients that you need so that you do not falsely trigger unwanted sounds.
This is a cool technique. Now I'm going see what happens when I sing best I can then take that vocal and turn it into a midi track and trigger a instrument with the midi.
It is easier than that.. If you drag and drop a vocal track into a midi instrument track it automatically converts it to midi,,, then you just assign any instrument you want to it.
A.M.P. What is even cooler is that you can hum sing or whistle a song that you don't know how to play like happy birthday, LA cucaracha or something like that drag and drop it on a midi track assign an instrument and you're good to go
A.M.P. That is the way I did it but unfortunately I don't sing so good! I'll keep at it. Have you ever had much experience with the "Snap to Scale" function in Sonar X3? I can't find a single tutorial on how that works.
Billy Barton it snaps to the setting when your dragging and dropping audio. ex if you have it set to quarter notes on the time ruler all you can put an audio clip on id beat 1, beat2, beat3, beat 4. ie 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 . If you have it set to eightth notes it will only drop audio on 1:1,1:1:480,1:2,1:2:480,1:3,1:3:480,1:4,1:4:480 giving you eight places, If you chage it to whole notes it is just on the measure. oh should of said the format is measure beats and ticks.
A.M.P. Yeah, I understand notes applied to beats, the question is notes "Snap to Scale" where notes are automatically snapped to the notes of a particular scale. I don't play keyboards, well I use a Arturia Lab and make it function best I can and do a lot of editing single notes in Piano View. I make it work for what I do. Just wanted to find someone who has used Snap to Scale. I've watched dozens if not hundreds of tutorials and no one seems to use it or explain it.
I'm confused about the triggering and what you used to trigger. Is the original kick "triggering" the addictive drums kick to sound? Would copying the original kick track to a new track and just change the sound of the copied track suffice? If not, why? Thanks for your help!
SHATAYA KAMILION Nevermind on the second question, which won't work since the track is already recorded. But please explain the point of triggering. Thanks
SHATAYA KAMILION The sampled bass drum & snare in Addictive Drums 2 are "triggered" from his original playing after he converted the audio to midi, and then copied it to a midi track assigned to AD2. You can't just take audio and replace the sounds. Hope that helps.
Thank you, that did help. Usually I would just add a kick or snare under the original track and then sidechain it or not depending on how they sound together. Perhaps that would be making it more difficult than just copying and pasting
SHATAYA KAMILION Thanks for the thanks. What you're describing is a different method that would work with a cleaner recoding, but that sounds really time consuming to me. But it might be healthier than telling a drummer you audiosnapped his tracks and then replaced their drum kit, lol.
haha
I appreciate this video immensely, use Sonar X3 daily and learned a ton from you thank you. But please you do some incredibly annoying stuff. Comparing the sound with and without trigger 15 times isn't necessary. Holding shift in piano roll and running the trigger points up and down all the available sounds over and over isn't necessary! We get it! Change your torturous snails pace to hare pace and you'll get much more into your video segments. Hate to sound rude but one example is plenty. And smacking your lips on the Mic is also annoying and gross. Otherwise, killer material! Where'd you learn all of this?
