Midi import/audio bounce issues

Hello,

I have SD3 version 3.1.2 installed with the default sound library and use it in Logic Pro X 10.4.3 under macOS 10.14.3 (beta, although all this happened under final version also)

I am having following issues when importing midi and bouncing audio from within SD3:

• dragging a midi region from Logic to SD3 is not working. If your drums are on a Logic track, then you have to export it as a midi file, go find it and drag it to Superior from within Finder…
• after dragging a midi file from Finder to the Song Track, the resulting block is way longer than the actual midi file (ie. 2000 bars instead of 183), so if you bounce it like that, you end up with audio files of about 30 minutes instead of 3 minutes :)… you have to manually cut the added bars
• if “Follow Host” is on, then bouncing doesn’t actually follow the tempo changes from Logic
• tempo changes from within the imported midi file are somehow not recognised during bounce, unless you toggle “Follow host” on and off
• when changing the Song Track window size from “View – Song Track”, the midi notes are not “rearranged” unless you zoom or press “Follow Host”
• NO audio tail when bouncing! You have to manually add a few empty bars after the last note
• when changing to another project and then back, everything in Song Track is lost, so you have to start over 🙂

As a feature request, I think it would be cool to add an option to include/bypass volume/pan and effects.

Thank you and Happy New Year everyone!

EZDRUMMER installed on PC and connected to Alesis Crimson Mesh Kit via USB

Hi,

I am trying to get my Alesis kit working with my pc using ASIO driver. But when i use this driver i only hear the drums and not the music.

I do have 2 sounds cards in stalled

• SupremeFX sound card by realtec (onboard)
• creative Labs Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Champion Series (this is the main sound card connected speakers using optical drive).

What i want to achieve is to use the headphone on my pc, alongs side EZDrummer 2 and Spotify to play along.

How can this be achieved?

Using drums as backing track – which preset

Hi

I’m using Superior Drummer 3.0. As we are gigging without a drummer right now, can anyone give advice as to the most appropriate preset that I can use for SD 3.0 to give to my sound guys as a backing track? I’ll be giving my soundguy a stereo pair. Before I used the djent preset, however the last soundguy had a difficulty making it sound good. I’m worried if I just give a clean unprocessed kit, it will sound a bit too unfocused. That and I can’t really try this out before we go for the gig through a PA.

Any advice or experience appreciated.

Thanks
