When you check the MIDI Monitor in the Drums Tab, what values does it say when you move the faders?

This is interesting to me in that I thought the only way to move SD3 faders from an external device was to assign the fader to a macro button and that macro button to an external control.

I just figured out the macro buttons, and binding them to a volume fader.

I set this up for my mixer outs (kick, snare, cymbals, toms, main).

Looks like this is saved with the particular project, and when I load a new project, it’s gone.

Is there any way to store this macro setup to load with new projects w/o needing to set them up from scratch again?

Sure, right click a control, go to MIDI Learn Presets, and save the current setup as a preset. When switching to another Drums and Mixer Preset, the macros will be still be tied to the same CC values.

You can also load this MIDI Learn preset later.

Thanks again!

When I do change the volume with the mouse, it moves rather quickly.

I want to make more gradual changes in volume (it tends to jump 1.5 dB at a time).

Would this be a windows mouse setting, or it there something in SD3 I can do to make the volume changes with a mouse more gradual?

Press shift key on keyboard while moving the mouse, and it will decrease the changed steps on mouse movements 🙂
