Triggering with Slatesamples

[Lowberg]

drumagog!

I bought the older slate samples when they still came in GOG format.

Works good for me.



And I tried the audio to midi for the first time with this band I just did and it worked out great.

They were like a 215bmp blast blast blast death band and 95% of the songs were constant 8ths or 16ths on the kicks so i looked at the tracks and said FUCK EDITING THAT BY HAND

Set up drumagog on the kick track, set the sensitivity and resolution good, in the advanced options I clicked enable midi send and set the port to "internal"

Then I created a midi track in cubase and set the input to "drumagog" and pressed play/record and whenever the kick track would trigger it would record a midi blip onto my new midi track.

Trigger > Drumagog

I seriously don't understand the difference between converting to midi, trigger, drumagog, aptrigga.. I mean. People say trigger is more accurate, but. I've personally never had problems with drumagog or converting to midi being inaccurate! What other features are better about trigger?

For one? Price/what you get.

Personally I rather midi edit than slip edit. Converting to midi minimizes my slip editing.

I'm using Drumagog. It seems to be perfect.
There are a lot of very usable functions like pitching, sending the converted transients out as midis for triggering e.g. BFD or Superior Drummer etc.
Ive never tried Trigger.
But if you still bought the version containing gog files, go and get your version of drumagog. It's stabil, easy and does not cause any problems.

Slightly off the subject but are the Slate 'crack' hits rim shots or just super hard normal hits?

Trigger does all of that and is cheaper. And it comes with TCIs (which are the same things as GOGs) of all the Slate drum samples.

Yeah having used drumagog for years, trying drumagog 5, and buying trigger...trigger reigns supreme. The accuracy is definitely a little better, it comes with all the slates organized in one convenient package, and you can stack/blend to taste stereo ambience samples of everything right on the spot without having to duplicate tracks. super slick. and even the $99 version comes with all the classic slates.
