    I’ve got C&V as well as Indiependent and they are very different in their tonality as well as ambience. There’s a certain closeness to them and yes, while you can try to replicate this type of feel, these were recorded with that feel already built in, most due to being done in smaller rooms. To me, it’s more than just the sound. It’s sometimes the feeling of being the in that room that has an effect on everything else I record. There are also some kits that you won’t find in SD3’s core library.

    Macros can also be used in live, or recording situations to create movement while playing. When using an input controller of your choice, you can attach a macro to a knob (or slider, expression pedal, etc.) on your controller and turn them while playing. Would be similar methodology to old school synthesists who are opening and closing filters, or adding and removing resonance during their performance. Only limits to the possibilities are your imagination.

    I haven’t seen this in particular. Are there any particular kit pieces you’re experiencing this on, or is it happening all over in general?

    EZX and SDX expansions are two different products, in that EZXs do not have the all of the channels and bleed (hence the footprint of an SDX). While you can use EZXs in SD3, if you want the SDX, you need to purchase them. Considering that the SDXs are on sale, however, it’s not a bad time to get them.

    Separate searches would be ineffective as most people who are searching the site could potentially miss out on information pertaining to their needs in the forum and vice versa. This is why companies move to a more enterprise search methodology… it’s all about making the information easily accessible.

    Depends how the missus tells you. Mine is more likely to punch me in the mouth to get it loose. šŸ˜€

    You’re definitely in the right space and I’m sure Toontrack will catch wind. Where it goes from there is anyone’s guess, but my experience has shown them to be quite responsive. I’ve just learned in all my years that no audio will ever be perfect, and sometimes we just have to work around crap like that low-end thump (although I might have a use for that as an effect). If anything, I’m more happy that SD3 gives us more than one way to skin a cat (more proof that they listen to us).

    That doesn’t sound like a bug in as much as it is designed to be a destructive edit.

    Considering that you can easily route the cymbal to its own channel and apply the high-pass there, without affecting the rest of the OH, what’s the real issue here? We know there’s a thump in there. It has been there since its release almost two years ago. Anomaly or not, there is a solution for the time being, and until Toontrack issues an update, if they decide to do so, it is still usable.

    I hi-pass them anyways. This one is still very usable.

    I seem to like a hi-pass at around 460Hz with an 18db/oct slope and a Q of around 1.66 as it seems to bring out a sweet spot at the same time of this particular one. Almost seems to breathe on a rock beat.

    USB will always have latency when dealing with software instruments. Speed is only a one aspect. At the very least, if your laptop has a PCMCIA slot, I’d recommend you get a Firewire 800 card and an audio interface to hook up to it. That will give you a low latency suitable for live use.

    I’ve seen for the first time yesterday. It happens after I closed my MacBook and it when to sleep. After waking up I got the message. No sound. Restart Mac and problem when away. Only time I’ve seen this.

    This is an CoreAudio issue that is OS deep. I get this on a continual basis on my work MBP, which only uses its internal speakers.

    An excellent YouTube channel for Logic that would recommend to anyone is MusicTechHelpGuy. Even as long as I have been using Logic, Josh still manages to take me for a trip down the rabbit hole from time to time, as Logic can be as deep as you want to go with it.

    I, too, like doing most of my drum editing in SD3 for similar reasons (I work with Reason almost as much as I work with Logic). As well, when I need to make a Q&D type of change, the play styles editor allows me to get in and out without missing a beat (pun intended, perhaps šŸ˜€ ). Grid editor can be quirky at times, but I still enjoy it, but when I really need some heavy duty editing, I will take it into Logic to use the Step Editor and other MIDI tools and then bring it back into SD3.

    Actually, I would use the Velocity Gate rather than the Velocity Curve. Velocity Curve might come in handy for some smooth transition effects, and would take some patience to tweak.

    You can do this in the grid editor by selecting the notes you want to quantize and adjusting the quantize slider. You would select the kick and snare separately and quantize them accordingly.

    Glad you found it. šŸ™‚

    If you open up your Home directory (shift-cmd-H) and then Show View Options (cmd-J) you will see a checkbox that says Show Library Folder.

    The other way to get there is cmd-G (Go to Directory) and copy the full path (with ~) and paste it in the dialog box.
