Starting Record From E-DRUM

[Alexandre Santos]

Hi,,

I need to record direct from the Roland TD-11Kv E-drum to EZ2, but I found no way to start the recording from the e-drum. I already tried, through the MIDI Program Change enable, but it does not work. Is there any way to start a recording from the e-drum? or Is there a EZ2 setup parameters to start counting “N” beats before starting the recording?

Thank you so much,

Hi,

did you try right-clicking the ‘Record’ button and MIDI Learn? What MIDI message is the module sending?
There is no Pre-Count setting for the metronome.

Hi,
I think you will later work in a DAW to complete your production, right?
Why don’t you start from there right in the beginning? Putting EZ on a track, creating a separate click track which can be started by Midi coming from your td-11 or another midi-device. That’s how I did it. Works fine for me so far.

Hi John,

The e-drum record/play button does not send a MIDI signal, I hoped there was an option that would start recording when the EZ2 received the first MIDI signal or a MIDI command, or something like that. I have already worked with various types of MIDI equipment and I am just trying to find features that exist in other recording equipment.

Thanks a lot

Hi,

The idea is really good, but I do not have a good DAW on the MAC, as most of the time I use the iPad and just to record drum that I need EZ2, which does not have iPad version :-(. I’ll try GarageBand.

Thanks a lot,

Hi,
I work with Reaper, which is absolute great. Especially when you use a Mac.
There is no cheaper choice (64,- Euro i think) which is that massive as a production Tool.
Just take a look at it an you will see, that I’m right 😉
And, you can control it with your IPad 🙂

If you have any more questions or need some help with it, let me know.

Hi,

Wow … I read and watched some videos about Reaper and it looks great, but everything for MacOS is very expensive and I’m already used to the IOS sotwares, and I only really need the MAC to use the EZ2. If one day EZ2 exists for iPad I can turn off the MAC 🙂

Thanks a lot.

Hi derilja,

Sorry, I posted in the wrong place. I was talking about your idea of recording e-drum/EZ2 with DAW, and it’s work fine in GarageBand,

Thanks again
