Hearing previous drum part while recording next part

[Al.]

Peace there everyone,

By GOD’s Grace, I got EZdrummer3, and I am still learning!

I wanted your help please.  I am trying to record the drum parts in bits using my edrum kit, by GOD’s Grace.

So verse-chorus, etc..

I am wondering, how can I hear the last few seconds of the verse as I am recording the chorus.  Sort of like a couple of bar to prompt me to enter in to the chorus section and play it.

Help please!

thank you  all 🙂 May GOD bless 🙂

EZdrummer version: 3.0.6
Operating system: Windows 11

Are you recording with a Digital Audio Workstation and if so, which one? Pre-roll would be what you need.

Most DAWS have a count-in feature. You should be able to set the number of bars your want to use as your count-in and then record at the spot where you wish to add your new parts. It should have no problem playing your previously recorded MIDI during the count-in.

Peace Mick and Jordan,

Thank you both

I am editing my drums in EZ outside of protools, as a stand alone  because it’s seems a little easier to edit, by God’s Grace.

So I’m looking to prolong pre roll in EZ beyond the one bar count, God willing:)

 

thank you again

Hi AbeerA,

what you are describing and wish to do is currently not possible in the EZdrummer 3 standalone app. As Mick and Jord suggests, this would best be achieved by using your DAW’s pre-roll. It works as you describe in Pro Tools. You can still record into EZdrummer 3 with it loaded as a plug-in in Pro Tools, just record-arm the EZD3 Song Track and hit Play in Pro Tools.

BR,
John

Peace John,

Wow, thank you to you too, praise GOD!

I’ve been using EZ outside of protools, because I didn’t know how to record into it with protools!

Now I know! praise GOD.

Thank you all gentlemen, Mich, Jordan and John, it’s really helpful
