Drums to Midi?

[George]

Hey I didn't feel like creating a new topic for this because I'm sure its been covered. For my band we wrote all the music out as midis and are now going to use that template to now record the music, but we are using the midis to program parts for the synth/orchestra and also for the drum set. What I am wondering is what program will be best for the drum set. I was looking at Drum Kit From Hell seeing as it has been mentioned many times on here, I was wondering if this program will be good for the sound, and also easy to use with Cubebase? If not if you could mention any programs that will be good that will be very helpful.

I've never used DFH so I don't know how difficult to use w/ cubase but from what I've heard you're going to get the best sound out of DFH. If you do it right it'll sound like a real drummer. DFH takes into account how your mics are set up, at least as I understand, so you can allow bleed between the mics which you really can't do with a regular midi kit.

i have dfh 2 and you cant do the blending as far as i know. but then again ive barely used it, havent had a reason to yet, but... im pretty sure thats dfh superior that does that. theres a chance im a moron and u can do it with the version i have. actually its a pretty good chance.

I was certain you could do that with DFH2 as well, but yeah DFH superior is the massive kit with all the fixin's

 

[Genius Gone Insane]

[~BURNY~]

Do you mean "Battery Studio Drums"?

Would those samples be included with Battery 2 or is it an add-on?

 

[Andy Sneap]

Add on if I remember right.

Does anyone know if the 3.5 gigs worth of samples you get with Battery 2 are any good?
