hi nick! thanks for your great tutorial!
i can't send you a private message within my youtube app, so i have to ask my question here:

when i'm on my real kit (tama starclassic bubinga) i have a hard time hearing my bass drum. even at speeds of 150-160bpm i can't hear the strokes clearly, which makes it kind of hard to work on my accuracy on the double bass (as well as speed, because it doesn't make much sense to just go crazy on the bass drum, when you're not able to control your playing by ear).
did you have a similar problem, too? if yes, do you have any advice on how i could get rid of that annoying problem?

thank you, greets from austria!

Great video, thanks. One question. If I create a drum track in EZD and then drag the grooves over to a SD2.0 track, does that turn the EZ drums into Superior Drums?

It's really easy to make your own beats in EZD2. I want to retain that simplicity but be able to port them over to a new track armed with SD2.0.

Where did you get that Midi pack from?

Hello,
I'm from the country Brazil .
I have "Pro Tools 12" and "Superior Drummer" and "Nanopd 2 - Korg controller", and then I'm wanting to learn how to configure the Nanopd 2 Korg controller for use with Superior Drummer and Pro Tools 12 .
I already have all drivers nanoPAD 2 installed on my PC, "Korg USB - Midi Driver", "Korg Kontrol Editor", and then I would like you to teach me telling me what would be the setup needed to use Nanopd 2 Korg controller for use with Superior Drummer and Pro Tools 12 .
 
Grateful .

hi, i have a question, when i'm putting a song together the first thing i do is find a beat (groove) that sounds and feels like what i want, then i go back and start inserting fills, my problem is the velocity in the fills are different, sometimes a lot. how do i even out the velocity and volume without sounding like a machine? i'm using sonar platinum. thanks

[twostepjake]

question for ya. Just got done makin a small loop drum groove and on some of the loops you cant hear the kicks that were placed in but on others you can. Is that a problem with the looping itself or something i can fix in Superior or my DAW?

[derrickrobertson]
