I forgot to add: You may encounter some drum plugins/VSTs that will require you to configure which sounds will be triggered by which pads on your kit. Some are super easy and you just select your kit from a list of pre-made MIDI map presets. Some don't. I have a video all about that, and ways to make your drums compatible with virtually any drum plugin: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-P5WG-WKGt44.html
Great video thanks for the advice. I have a Roland TD07KV, running all thr appropriate stuff through an iMac, reaper and I have purchased Counterkit from SoundBlind, however my snare, hi hat and tom isn't picking up but everything else is. How do I overcome this so I can get the full kit to work on my kit? Floor tom, bass drum, cymbals and rim shot works but the rest don't which is frustrating!
Direct module to laptop is not for me..coz i don't have a high end gadgets.. But i do have interface sacrlet 6i6 but no idea how to connect interfere and record v drums on my reaper...can u plssssss explain it to mee in details
@@eDrumsandVSTs I started using Sonar from it's first release. Cakewalk was the company and Sonar was the DAW they produced.Then not long ago Cakewalk the company was purchased by the Gibson Guitar company and they continued development of the product naming it Cakewalk by BandLab, and offering it free of charge to anyone. Now they have two paid versions but continue to support the free version.
Think of ASIO as the technology and ASIO4all as one method of implementing the technology. Using an ASIO-capable device as your audio output device allows playing MIDI drums/keyboards/etc on your PC, and hearing the sounds quickly. ASIO4all is a free software app that allows you to use ASIO technology on your PC without having to go out and buy an audio interface that has ASIO drivers built-in. Your second question: funny enough, there is NO cord of any kind going from the roland module to the focusrite interface. I go USB from the roland module to the PC directly. Thats how the MIDI data gets to the computer. The focusrite interface goes to my PC with USB just like the roland module. But in my DAW, Reaper, i set the output audio device as the focusrite interface. I can plug headphones into the focusrite interface headphone jack and hear everything from there. The focusrite handles the ASIO stuff and makes sure everything is processed with basically no latency. Thanks for the kind words! I hope this didnt seem over-complicated.
@@eDrumsandVSTs Thanks for your answers. I use a Focusrite 4i4 with a midi cable to the Roland TD27 because with a USB cable or a USB midi cable I can not get rid of the big latency (I use a HP laptop Intel core i7 10th gen with 16 Gb RAM). With the Focusrite and midi cable it works fine. I have a Roland VAD 507 with TD27 and I use EZ3, SD3, Hertz Drums 2.0, BFD Player, ML Drums and Redpackdrums.
@@Ludo_A i wonder if, when you are going USB from the roland to your PC, that your audio device for output is set to something other than the focusrite. I go USB from Roland module to the PC. But i have the audio device set as the focusrite audio interface.
Hi -- its technically possible. I think Efnote ues polyaftertouch like Roland. Many plugins will work with chokes, but Mixwave is one of those that wont work right away, at least that I have found. Mixwave requires a MIDI note to be sent from the kit. Efnote and Roland, however, send a PolyAftertouch MIDI signal, which isnt a MIDI note but is a MIDI CC data thing. Im working on a Reaper script that will help with this, but for now, you can try watching Nick Leonard's video and seeing if this will work for you: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hyeXhq9j0lk.html
Hi, which software are you talking about? if it stops after a few hits, it could be your audio device settings. Perhaps your buffer size is way too low.
@@eDrumsandVSTs no, that's to easy. I bought an iPad. I'm just going to use GarageBand. I was trying with EZ Drummer and Steven Slate 5.5, but same thing happened for both. Eventually I'll buy a Mac Mini desktop.
@@maidenmopar MM, sometimes my headphones dont give me a good impression of the actual audio -- was the backround drumming a little too loud in this? to my ears with my headphones it didnt sound as loud, but give me your impression.
