Hi!
Can you only stack drums to the center? I want to combine different snare sounds…it lets me add them to center…but does this mean this “combined snare sound” will only work with regular hits and not other articulations such as flams and rolls etc.? Can you combine e.g. two snare sounds and add them to all possible articulations?
Hi there,
Depending on what instrument you are stacking on, all articulations are available, but they do need to be stacked individually.

Thanks. I tried that…by adding a snare to the center…but when I want to add the same snare to a different articulation, only the new stack is displayed, but no more center.
I’m not quite sure I understand. Once you have added a particular snare to an articulation, it shows up under “Stack” and the articulation you have added to.
All the other articulations are still available to create stacks from the list as and as Mark indicated, you can make separate stacks from them per articulation.

Thank you! It seems to work, but I don’t know why the official Toontrack presets have a center stack only. Do you know? Different snare sounds are stacked there, but only in the center…why not for rimshots, edge, flam etc.? Shouldn’t every snare that uses different snare sounds have stacks for EVERY articulation?
Or am I doing something wrong? My snare is a combination of Tama Bell Brass (Death & Darkness -> Death) and Ludwig Supraphonic from Metal Foundry.
Now I want to use this combination for every articulation. I select the Ludwig snare (marked green), then select copy and select an articulation. However, the newly created stack only has the correct articulation for the Tama Bell Brass, but not for the Ludwig…I have to right-click the Ludwig snare, then click “Search for instrument”, find the Ludwig snare again and select the correct articulation.
It only works with a couple of articulations because Metal Foundry does not have offcenter etc.

Here…this Mark Lewis preset (Death & Darkness -> death -> Mark Lewis) has 5 snare sounds…but although there are many articulations available, the stack of 5 is only in the center. WHY? When you play a rimshot or flam, you will only hear one of the 5 sounds, correct?
I am confused…

Sorry I do not know the answer, but I see what you mean. Now whether all SD3 SDXs are like this, I can’t say without looking at every preset for every SDX.
