Do you by chance know if the file imported into tracker has to be in wave format? Files I imported in were in mp3 format and when I went and saved file as wave and imported that into tracker, it did appear to recognize the high hat a little better. I’ll play around with it again this evening and let you know. If that does not work, I’ll get the file to you from google drive.

Even with just left overhead, it says file too big.

Tracks are eight measures long and even after zipping I get message saying file is too large. Any suggestions

Here’s a final file. This one is even worse. Measures 1-32 is just 8th notes on high hat and measures 33-61 I played an 8th note & 2 16th notes throughout on the ride cymbal. As you see, rides cymbals hardly picks up anything. I even move the sm57 mic from high hat and placed it over the ride to rule out the condenser mics being the problem. I’d greatly appreciate any help

Here’s another file.  This time around the snare has a lot of ghosted notes. How do I adjust so tracker picks up the ghost note patterns? Also this time around tracker analyzes high hat as a tom. I did go back in after I sent file and change the recognition to high hat and that did seem to fix the issue but on another file I did it recognize high hat as snare and duplicate the snare even after changing recognition to high hat

Here’s the file in question. Measures 1-4 are on the high hats & 5-9 are on the ride cymbal on the right. Left & Right overheads set up in xy position. As you’ll see, tracker not picking up what’s being played on high hat or ride. Measures 1-9 just a simple eight-note pattern. Other times high hats duplicate the snare.

Also, can you tell me why I cant create multi track channels with the preset I’ve selected

Thank’s for your reply. As far as the mics on the snare and high hat are concerned, I’m using an audix I5 and shure m57 on the high hat. Snare mic is placed with the back facing the toms and high hat mic is placed over the top of the high hat. Which mic are you suggesting I put the gate on snare or high hat? Also having the same problem with tracker not picking up what’s being played on the ride and crash cymbals. Using audix condenser mics for left & right overheads.

Another question. Is there a way to add to an existing tracker file? For example, I have a 50 measures of drums recorded one day and another 50 another day. I’ve already imported the first 50 in tracker and in my daw. How do I add the 2nd 50 measures to the first tracker file?

Followed your steps exactly by turning the knob all the way to the right and selecting high hat as the sound and it still plays the snare. Using version 3.1.6. It looks like the only way it halfway works is if I record just the high hat track in studio one and mute all the other tracks. I then create an audio file of just the high hat track and import it into an existing tracker file. This way tracker sees it as a high hat track but it still does not pick up all the notes and articulations. Can you think of anything else I may be doing wrong? Having to record twice is a pain. I wonder if it has to do something with cymbals because I have the same problem with my left and right overheads. I am aware that tracker will only pick up cymbals sounds for the overheads but it’s not picking up what’s being played on the cymbals and again having to record cymbals separately. So far, capturing all cymbals when playing the full kit is the problem.
