This is exactly how I do it with Logic Pro. Confirmed.

The Metal Foundry SDX has a fantastic sticks sound that I used as a count-in for my Volbeat – Shotgun Blues drum cover.   You can find it on my YouTube channel linked in my signature if interested hearing what they sound like.  🤘

Good idea.  But unfortunately all the midi I did in SD3’s grid editor is saved as part of the logic file and not in it’s own file so there’s no way to open it in the standalone.

Ahhh, didn’t think of that.  My work flow is to always save a .sd3p file when done with my Logic projects in case something like this happens.  I’m even export the tempo map out of Logic and into SD3…

I’ve learned my lessons over the years.

This should get you started…

Have you tried opening your project in the standalone application and doing your exports there?

Your module is most likely sending CC6 information which is positional sensing data for your snare.

Yup, no issues since upgrading.

I was downloading the Hitmaker SDX last night and the transfer speeds were really slow;  like 2-8mbps.  Ran a speed test and was getting close to 1gbps (my normal speed). It did eventually finish but this was a first time for me getting slow speeds via PM.

What I do is have two tracks in SD3 that I switch between.  A “Master” track and a “Punch-In” track.  When I need to do what the OP is asking, I switch to the “punch-in” track and re-record that segment.  I then make my edits on that punch-in track (quantize, velocities, etc), then copy the section over to the “master” track.  The only downside to this method is you do not hear your lead-in drums, but you can always copy that information over to the “punch-in” track as well.  Hope that idea helps. . .

Use the Set Current to Default option in SD3.  Then when Logic opens the SD3 plugin, it will load your default preset/settings you saved.  The save settings option in Logic will load up the plugins, track parameters, layouts, etc. you saved each time you load the template.

I agree that additional added instruments should be able to be renamed so that when in the grid editor you know what instrument you are modifying easier.

What are the specs of your Apple computer?  I wonder if you enabled low latency mode when recording the track if that would help?  Do you have a lot of other tracks with plugins/fx going while recording?

For me, I never import a tempo into SD3 as the plugin should follow the tempo as laid out in Logic when you have “Follow Host” enabled on the transport bar of SD3.  The only time I import a tempo into SD3 is when I am sharing my project with someone else who is using the standalone Superior Drummer 3 application.

Why did you decided to import the tempo in the first place?
