  It's more the algorithm for humanization that choose the Ruond Robin Samples, but in the same layer of velocities, use pretty much the same dynamic (at less not too noticiable if you don't try to null) , but yes can be a bit annoying. Anyway you can still mix without mayor problem, at least for sketch the mix and see waths work or not. Them yes, you can render and threat as audio file (that's always recommended, not only for this reason). For the other part, Toontrack nailed it, even if you render one of the duplicated tracks, close the session and reopen, it´s still nulling with the rendered track. But this i discover a few minutes ago, after see your video, i always believe EZDrummer use differents samples each time (like the others plugins behaviour), but now i know it's doesn't. (I still use EZD 2).

  Plugins will react different because drum vsts are meant to trigger different samples every time you hit play for a more natural sound. It's not a problem, this is how these drum plugins are supposed to operate.

  Hi. It looks like the message I tried to deliver wasn't clear for everyone. I don't have problem with differences in the plugin when I record or write the parts with it.The problem happens when I try to mix the drums. Think about it. After you recorded a live drum performance, do you think the drums will change every time you play them back? Of course not. You will hear no changes at all. That's why I said we should print, bounce, render the drums before adding any other processing like compression, eq, limiter, clipper, etc. I was talking from the mixing perspective.

  This is super useful! Any reason not to use a transient shaper to remove the attack as one can remove the transient but leave the sustain?

• 
  @akosfarkas115911 күн бұрын

  Hi. The reason I use the compressor and eq combination is that this way, I have very precise control over the attack and release and I can compress the sound, which brings up the sustain a lot more. Then I can select the frequency to cut with the eq. But of course you can experiment with other tools. 😉

  Nice trick 😊 I don’t care that much about bleed because the drums supposed to sound like one instrument not individual separate instruments. I use the bleed to get a cohesive sound, often I also let vocals and guitars bleed just a little bit though the drum room to get the effect of glue and sound like everyone is playing in the same room. Just a tiny bit can make a big difference.

  You've figured out how good drum plugins work. They always sound different. If you want the same sound every time, use a simple drum sampler. Then you'll always get the same thing. How boring is that?

•

  Hi. What I tried to explain was that during mixing, I don't appreciate the random changes. I don't mind if not every take is the same. Such as in real life. But once I commit to the take, it always stays the same. Such as in real life. After you record your drummer, the recordings don't jump around every time when you hit play.

  Yes. Simple as that. I just tried to explain and give a demonstration why it is important. It's surprising how often people just use these plugins as they are and just throw some limiter and clipper on the top of it and call it a day, hoping for the best. Of course, it depends on what you want to achieve. A quick demo or a polished mix. Personally, I want to know what's going on inside my mixes and don't like random surprises.

  Hi there. Well, to be honest you can get a decent mix with both. The only thing that can be an extra feature, that in the Amek plugin you have the TMT stuff, so you can emulate slightly different EQ behaviours on every single channel and in my opinion the limiter is more useful, but other than that... I don't know. It's a tough question :D

• 
  @akosfarkas11592 ай бұрын

  Hi. I wouldn't say better or worse. It depends on what you are looking for. I'd say very different. This is a console emulation, designed to use it on individual tracks or busses in your mix. Ozon is designed mainly for mastering, so I would put it on my master bus, or use it on a finished mix. Obviously Ozon has more to offer when it comes to functions and features, but I wouldn't open it on every single channel in a 40-50 multitrack mix. Short answer is: both of them are great for what they are designed for. I'd use the console in my mix, and use Ozone when I want to do the final tweaks on a finished mix.

Of course, now it costs $90, but in advance they ask for $400, is it really possible that for embellishing, for example, a guitar or drums, the Tube Tech Classic Channel would be worse than the this Console, seriously, it seems to me that the Tube Tech Classic channel is much better than this console, most likely I’m wrong because I just downloaded console and so far it seems that it is too sophisticated, although in terms of the final sound it is not that much better than the Tube Tech Classic channel... I’ll try to find a video where this console is used separately on a guitar or drums, if possible.

  How can I use the outputs on my Alesis strike pro to my mixer and output my vst sounds from ezd3 through my monitor or to foh. I want to do this for 2 reasons, to practice and adjust each instrument during practice and while doing so record and use in post?

• 
  @akosfarkas11595 ай бұрын

  Hi. If you want to use the outputs then you will record the audio from the drum module and not MIDI. So you can't use midi drum vst with audio. Those outputs for audio only. You need a mixer with the same amount of inputs as many outputs on the drum module if you want to record every drum pad on an individual track. Or you can record in stereo the whole drumkit using the left-right outputs so you need only 2 inputs on the mixer or adio interface. That would work for front of house and PA systems. But again, those outputs on the drum module are for audio signal, directly capturing the original built in drum sound. You cant use them to trigger midi drum vst like ezdrummer. Hope it make sense.

• 
  @akosfarkas11596 ай бұрын

  Hi. Yes I believe this should work. The only thing is that you have to make sure that your DAW recognized the drumkit as a MIDI device when you plugged it in. If you can see a signal coming in to your DAW when you hit a drum pad, you can record MIDI. Then just open a drum plugin on the recorded MIDI track and see if the plugins MIDI mapping is the same as the drum's.
