I am reaching out to you guys to explain the workflow I would like to do and what I am limited by with how it is set up.
Because my unassisted head timing is TERRIBLE, my ideal workflow would to be to start with a drum line, add guitar, bass, then vocals. To do this, I would like to load up my DAW (Reaper), open the EZDrummer plugin on my selected track, and lay down a simple groove in the plugin itself. I would like to do this because the I love the added functionality of having EZDrummer lay down extra beats, change power hand, generally just tinker with what I laid down for a while, then when I am pleased with it, drag it onto my DAW track. This ideal workflow for me is hampered by the simple fact that there is no way from what I can tell to activate a metronome to guide me during recording within EZDrummer when running as a plugin.
I would really want to avoid running the solo version of EZDrummer alongside my DAW with the plugin running (causes issues with my midi controller) and would really like to know if there is a way to activate metronome functions within the EZDrummer plugin itself.
Maybe there is some workaround I am missing and you guys can help me out.
Thanks a ton.
