It would need to be kept out of the way of the sticks, making a ching ring a better bet. I’m going to try stacking snare and tambourine samples in SD.

What’s happening? In what way is EZD ‘not compatible’?

You want to set well below 0Db; -12 is the number I found in my researching. The mixdowns should be -12, to give mastering lots of room for boosting the EQ.

 

One thing to watch out for is mixing the singing right. If we know the words, we can hear them even if they’re too low in the mix for anyone else to hear. I put the guitars and bass at the right level to hear the snare clearly and bring the singing up to match the snare. Listen to commercial recordings of the same kind of music that you do. It’s surprising how low the guitars are.

Alternatively you can set EZ Drummer to record and play your Pro Tools session. EZ Drummer well then record what is playing on the instrument track in PT.

How do we do that?

Hit record in EZ Drummer and press play in your DAW (this tip isn’t limited to PT).

I hadn’t seen the record button until you said.
