Yeah I just found out last night I can send the midi signal from my main EZX to another EZX through my DAW’s ROUTING system (like when we send out multi channels of EZx to mix separately in separate channels) to another instance of EZX and not have to copy midi to it and then start stacking Kiks and snares AND mix in other FX from those EZX’s!! WOOHOOOO!

Nice one Mate!!

[onewayout_1]

Definitely!

I have the Hip Hop EZX also and I’m a rock guy….Great creative tool!!

[onewayout_1]

NICE Glennbo!!

I’m listening to it on by small Bluetooth computer speaker and the drums are jumping out amazingly!! Everything in the mix is CLEAR and clean Bud!

I take it your a reaper user too as I think I saw this title on the chat page over there today too (-;

Cool, chill song Bro…. LOVE the vox!

Cheers, Jeff

GREAT, FUN song!! AWESOME chops Mate!! Thanks for that (-:

One mix critique is that the guitar is quite bright and edgy….Us guitar players are pretty deaf in the high end

Thanks, onewayout_1. I guess I’ll have to look into the hits EZX.  

You might like the HIP HOP kit better as it has a lot of different Percussion also…And has some very cool soul grooves….

I tdoes the same thing with using other kits Perc and Kik & snares too

Well yeah you can do it on separate OUTS or (TRACKS) for processing but INSIDE the Number #1 hits they give you a choice of several Kiks & snares which you can open different acoustic Kiks & snares and mix them in with each other.

No more 2nd instances!! (opening 2 different EZDs)  

Also you can open like I said congas and such in the Perc and FX pads from different EZ Kits. This Kit makes for some very versatile arraigning as does the hip hop and Electrons kits do also…

Hey sounds like your having fun! ?

To answer question #2 no a regular drum kit cannot pull up say a conga from Latin percussion unfortunately…. But like number#1 hits kit can and so can hip hop kit and the electronic kit… Cool thing about Number#1 hits is you can also add 2 or more snares using other acoustic kits too to layer them!

Juicy is very on with more instances!! I was actually saying I would change the kik & snare pattern a bit to add a different groove for the second verse…BUT here is a new song I am working on with 2 instances…This is VERY typical that I have for verse and then chorus….

Also I drag the midi into my daw after I have done my tap&search and edited in ezd2 to manipulate the midi even more…Like humanize and then change the velocities a bit…nudge the kik, snares off grid even more for a live feel… https://www.toontrack.com/news/making-custom-drum-tracks/7/ This is a great tutorial of what I’m talking about….Hope that helps

That’s r exactly how I’m working… But I’ve already set my individual outs though and some added Fx to get the feel and the groove going… I’ll start from intro to chorus out/ending building my parts this way…. Then as I’m adding my instruments I’ll need more in chorus (or less) DIFFERENT rides or hats change up the kik& snare in the second verse ect…

[onewayout_1]

Hola,

I do this and process all the instruments separately and can constantly tweak the midi to the song as it progresses…Not having to “PRINT” the audio to separate trks. This allows all the different instruments able to add and subtract effects as we continue to build the song….

Hi,

Sorry about ur issue…I use reaper and have EZM 2 and a lot of the plug ins. I have never really experienced any hangs yet…Although now that I’m typing this you might want to search in EZM topics I think there was a reverb plug that was quite hungry….I just tried looking it up I remember it had something to do with church…So I just opened up my EZM and found one that is called “LIKE CHURCH” and it added about 5% to my cpu…I have an I5 with 8g of RAM so not sure what ur config is…Hope that helps…Oh and if you were using more than one of them well…(-;

[onewayout_1]

Cheers, good tip! I will take that more to heart….. Thanks Ian
