8 ways to humanize your MIDI drums | Native Instruments

[@gerhardwasowski]

Nice to see Studio One. This daw needs more recognition

[@MyFeltMusic]

This DAW needs MPE, independent loop and punch locators, and better bundled instruments.

The best humanize guide i´ve ever seen by far! I´ve done midi drums forever, and there were several things i haven´t thought of, that make a massive difference. Thrilled to try em out. :)

[@MitchellLawlerMusic]

bless your souls for this one

[@stephenallenmusic]

I been trying to figure this out for a long time. some of these tips I use. Thank You for sharing

[@TheOnjLouis]

Finger-drumming is where I get my kicks. I do not program drums, I play all my ghost notes in live. I use a Komplete Kontrol S61 MK2 and a combination of Abbey Road, Addictive Drums, Soniccouture and occasionally Superior Drummer for my work. Check my channel for tips on how I achieve this if interested, I have a playlist geared toward this very topic.

Finally! Someone actually said by how much to move the midi notes off the grid to sound human. I didn’t know by how much, and it resulted in slop!

[@KaitavSapreMusic]

Excellent tutorial, as always!

[@patrickgarrity5529]

Amazing!! Reenforcing a few key elements i forget over the years. THX!! 🙏

[@TheJoyofFingerDrumming]

Finger drumming is also a good way to humanize MIDI drums :)

[@ShelLuser]

Machine ftw!

[@illford]

But then you have to have skill

[@TheJoyofFingerDrumming]

@@illford more or less skill depending on the genre, for instance metal and jazz and Latin require great skill, while electronic, hip hop etc need less skill. But I generally agree.

[@reel-loops]

Illford Official Skill is developed. It’s not inherited. Practice, Practice, Practice.

Mann this is a big help keep the video coming !

[@MrEnagee]

could this not be shown with a NI sequencer?

[@kaboozle]

Please keep these excellent videos coming! I already use many of the tips but I picked up a few new ones that’ll make my own effort go from “okay...I see what you’re getting at” to sound “pretty good”... 😅

[@sonicinkwell]

Good stuff! Thanks Native Instruments!

[@Elienguitar]

How about putting out a video that shows how to route drums to individual tracks in Maschine using Studio Drummer. I've been trying this for months and no success.

[@pettinhouse]

My suggestion is to improve the timing with your fingers. By the way good stuff here!

[@Jamslerr]

Needs more cowbell.

Adam Molotov dame rules apply. Just use different sounding samples! And mayb no fills.. 🤨
