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?
Are you using a DAW or just the standalone SD3 application? If using a DAW set all the SD3 outputs to individual tracks on your DAW and export/bounce/render from the DAW. Otherwise, I agree it’s a missed feature as I have not found an easier way other than what you have already found.
