Drum replacing hit-by-hit?

[LBTM]

Guys, when you'e replacing for example the snare drum do you go hit-by-hit to ensure that every hit gets triggered correctly or you just put it in the auto with some decent settings and leave it like this?

i'll try to find the settings that works best on most parts, then i go back, listen through the whole song and automate the settings / edit hits by hand ect. in difficult parts to make it sound right.

I normally do two passes, one for hard hits and one for fills, different settings on each.

yeah, same here, I get the settings to work most of the time, and then listen to the whole song to check, any weird parts get automated or the hit itself gets edited.

I usually print the track in real time in PT. I set Trigger up at the beginning of a song, press record, and if it mistriggers change the trigger settings and start recording from right before the mistrigger.

I've done it every which way. Now most of the time I either use Massey DRT to print audio clicks (cuz trigger sucks balls with midi) and go through every hit to make sure they line up, or just set trigger on it and automate/ edit the weird hits.

Massey DTM is way more phase accurate than anything else.



...but i use trigger. and do exactly what everyone else here does haha

Massey DRT > MIDI > Hand-Edit Any Weirdness > Kontakt

I voted manual, though I normally do both...

I'll manually change tom hits and such using samples from the session...

With auto, i'll still go through with a 50 50 of each channel and listen to make sure its triggering right and that the sample is on cue...
