Problem is, I need more than 16 outs to do what I need to on the studio one mixer (some plugins just don’t come natively built-it/replicated inside Superior Drummer 3 by itself). Before anyone asks why anyone could need more than 16:
- Kick (already summed the kick-in & kick-out inside SD3 to save a track)
- Kick-Sub
- Kick Trigger (an x-drum with a specific transient signal for use in hit-replacement/drum-replacement inside studio one, suppose I could do this with a bus from kick 1, but it’s just so much cleaner this way).
- Snare Top (summed from dyn + cond inside SD3)
- Snare Bottom
- Ghost Note Track (a life saver I have found, moving ghost notes to a separate x-drum and processing slightly different for audibility )
- Hats
- Tom 1
- Tom 2
- Tom 3
- Tom 4 (I really, REALLY don’t want to process these a single out inside SD3, there is some effecting I would like to do to each drum which can’t be done in SD3 alone)
- OH
- Room Near
- Room Mid
- Room Far
- Room Mono
- Booth
So as you can see, I’m one short & I really don’t want to lose the ghost note or trigger track (they save a ton of time & give me flexibility I can’t grab otherwise). Now I know some other DAWs like Cubase you can do 32 Mono tracks which is bad-ass…you can’t in Studio One 7 Pro. I need some help from a mad genius on this board who knows how to make this work, Thank you in advance!

Hi there,
I’ve done a little limited testing as a theory to address your issue as best as possible, and I think it should work.
As Mark indicated you will send 2 SD3 tracks panned L/R to an output pair. In Studio One you will expand the instrument tracks as normal.
On each track you need to insert Presonus Splitter and set the mode to channel split, then within each splitter you can process the incoming signals separately, eventually the output is going to come through the stereo channel, but the signals themselves can be processed separately. In my example I added a delay to 1 tom and nothing to the other tom. The tom with the delay is processed separately from the tom with no effects. I hope this makes sense.
You may only need to double up a few tracks like this in reality and for those tracks you have done like this, try setting the panning mode to dual (holding the option key should allow you to pan without effecting the other side)

Thanked by: TIBrentThanks. I tried that…by adding a snare to the center…but when I want to add the same snare to a different articulation, only the new stack is displayed, but no more center.
I’m not quite sure I understand. Once you have added a particular snare to an articulation, it shows up under “Stack” and the articulation you have added to.
All the other articulations are still available to create stacks from the list as and as Mark indicated, you can make separate stacks from them per articulation.

Hi! Can you only stack drums to the center? I...Hi!
Can you only stack drums to the center? I want to combine different snare sounds…it lets me add them to center…but does this mean this “combined snare sound” will only work with regular hits and not other articulations such as flams and rolls etc.? Can you combine e.g. two snare sounds and add them to all possible articulations?

Hi there,
Depending on what instrument you are stacking on, all articulations are available, but they do need to be stacked individually.

Hello I wonder if you might be able to help...Hello I wonder if you might be able to help me please
I recently got a new computer and I’m in the process of reinstalling all of my toontrack Products
I have the original grand piano Expansion from ezkeys1 installed from when I originally pre-ordered ez keys 2 back in 2023
I want to access the midi library which came with the grand piano expansion back in Ezkeys 1, The sound library has installed fine but there seems to be no midi, there is only the default Ez keys 2 midi library showing up
What am I doing wrong?
thanks.

Hi there,
When I check Toontrack Product Manager, under EZKeys MIDI, I have a folder/product titled EZKeys 1 MIDI, does it not show up for you?

Thank you very much for your detailed reply, Brad! That was very helpful.
Sorry, the last question was a very hypothetical and obviously far off, but I think you did get it right. I was wondering if it’s possible to create a MIDI drum track in EZ/Superiour Drummers’ editor and then use other sound sources, like multiple analog synths for example. I guess, if I wanted to do that, I’d have to export the MIDI and then use another tool to map it, in order to have different drums played by different analog synths.
No actually you can do that from the Superior MIDI track, just enable MIDI out, that will allow you to transmit MIDI from Superior Drummer to another MIDI enabled device within you DAW.
