How do you edit drums??

[26]

It does...it does..... Thank you (@ the others too).
For know, i´m not at the point where i have to move tracks (i was aware of treating them as a whole), and going into Hit Point calculation and stuff (maybe i won`t have to).
What i did is, trim single hits :zombie: so that I can make hits longer, shorter, or get the bleeding back if I want to.

I found the results good sounding and I happily expect this record`s release in 2017.

Calculate the hit points of each drum track. The easiest way to do this is cut the songs into sections (verse, chorus, etc.) that way you have a better resolution to see where the hit points are landing instead of hunting through the entire song. Then I use Hitpoints > Divide events a hitpoints. This makes all your slices. Only thing after that, is I need a macro program to apply the different cuts to everything at once, which I'm in the process of figuring out. Without it, you're stuck highlighting all the tracks and doing a lot of N/Alt-X.

After that, highlight all your hits per section, drag a little from the right to cut some length so each hit has some space, then press Q, then X. That quantizes and cross fades. When you pull a little off the hits, the crossfades are a lot less prone to crossfading over a hit, they tend to land in the silence.

Have you tried folder tracks? this will cut all your tracks together if you drop them in there.

Yeah, it's what I do now, but it's stil laborious as crap. I still have to put each trigger track above the folder and run its slices, then the next and the next to make sure I get all the hits cut in the acoustic drums. I just that auto hotkey thing someone posted, but I couldn't get it working.

Would you be kind enough to tell me the exact steps you use? And do you use Nuendo or Cubase?

I pretty much followed the instructions to the letter. It's pretty self explanatory.
I use Nuendo 3.

I'm thinking I might have to change the class header because I use cubase and the class of the original file is setup for for nuendo.

Hey you guys ...

Some friends recorded a couple of tracks for a demo-cd and as I already did some tracks with programmed drums they asked me to "mix" it.

I never really worked with "real" drumtracks, so could someone please give me some advice on editing the drumtracks?

For example ... how do you edit doublebass-parts?

And how can I optimize snare-rolls when I want to replace the snare via drumagog (demo-version).

Thank you guys ... you can't imagine how much I already learned from this forum!!!
