Render midi to audio

[Soundlab Matrix]

I am in logic and use SD3 as an instrument...

I am in logic and use SD3 as an instrument and all the midi is done in logic.  How can I “bounce/render” my midi into multitrack audio so I can mix it?  So that it would look like individual look when you record a live drummer.

Thanks for this answer, however I am very frustrated that this is indeed the answer.

If I had known to just use the app and it would be this difficult to extract from a DAW programmed midi, I would have just used the app.

Massive fail imo, please improve.

Hit the record button on SD3 and hit play in the DAW to get your MIDI in. How difficult is that?

It’s not entirely difficult, but it is hard to FIND that information and as a solution it is just clunky. The combination of these two things amplify the feeling of frustration.

Luckily, it appears that Toontrack are a bunch of awesome ppl so they’re gonna make some more docs. So that’s actually cool.

The alternative of recording out the hits is marginally less irritating, though I was still using Cubase at the time (which I dropped faster than a hot potato when I found out about the internal grid editor) and setting up anything in that joke of a DAW is just a headache (except for the drum editor, they nailed that). A double increase in frustration.

Aside from that culmination of bad experiences, which I admit don’t reflect my thoughts on SDX, it renders the in-DAW programming experience ultimately useless. So that’s great…

Unfortunately, even though the grid editor in SDX is awesome and has lots of very intelligent features, it also omits some very basic features like hotkeys for velocity or indeed setting velocity prior adding a hit.

Still getting used to the grid editor and I know I just need to adjust to the “smart memory” of the velocity.

The problem I’m having is that after I import the midi into SD3 and bounce to multiple audio files, when I import the audio files back into Logic, they’re all a little bit behind, making the drum tracks unusable. Trying to drag them into sync doesn’t really work, they’re always just a little bit off, and I shouldn’t have to do that anyway. What am I doing wrong? This was WAAAAYYYY easier in SD2, never had this problem before.
