Advanced Recording & Editing with EZDrummer 2, plus triplet workflow

[@jayrocknurse5386]

I like your voice and your attitude. I'm handicapped and I usually HATE being YELLED at. You sound like a friend that I could be hanging out with. I have NO TROUBLE AT ALL learning from you I appreciate the time that it takes you to record these videos. So.... I'm handicapped, 68 years young, and I'll never stop writing and recording. I'm no longer trying to become rich and famous. I simply want to get the best recordings that I can for the songs that I write.Your helping me to do that and I give you deep, deep thanks. Remember: If it's too loud, then you're too old. Stay Safe. Jay

[@ShootieSchool]

What a fantastic message, thank you Jay! I'm sure you've noticed I have a full curriculum of EZDrummer 2. Do come back when you're ready for more.

[@SwinginBluesTube]

dude, what a powerful feature, to be able to copy individual instrument from any track to any other. I did it just now after watching you demo this, and holy crap...it's very easy to do and so powerful. Man I recall trying to find just the right track for what I was working on, and didn't realize that I can merge stuff together from these tracks. Awesome.

[@ShootieSchool]

Great to hear!!

[@butchgardner1441]

Easily the best tutorial set for EZDrummer that I have found to date and I need look no further. Full of content and excellent presentation. So much here a table of contents might be helpful for quickly going back for a review or quick help. I have subscribed....

[@ShootieSchool]

What a fantastic comment, it makes my day! Thank you. Table of contents should be on all of my vids in the video description with clickable links. Not sure why it's not side-screen, I'll have to look into it. Cheers!

[@fredp322]

These are the videos I’ve been looking for! I’ve been using EZD2 for awhile and your videos have really opened my eyes to what this software is capable of. Thank you!

[@ShootieSchool]

Great comment, thank you!

[@andrewwilliams9419]

Watched every one of your EZ Drum videos. I learned so much.

You sir, are a delight. Thank you so much for taking the time. Best EZDRUMMER tutorial on KZbin. Hands down!

[@ShootieSchool]

Thank you for saying! My pleasure.

Wow - I've been using EZdrummer 2 for a year or so now but had no idea about all of these capabilities. Thank you !

[@ShootieSchool]

Great to hear. Thanks for the comment!

Per your request (random fact): there is more real lemon in a can of furniture polish than there is in lemonade sold next to cans of soda. Also, another excellent video walkthrough! I have a lot to learn and version 3 looks like a massive feature addition.

[@ShootieSchool]

Gosh, you put the effort in on this one lol!!! That was good. Thank you very much for saying!

Dude. Or shall I call you Professor? You sound young and with all of your shit together. I'm only like six minutes in and already chuckling along with your deliverance of this great exploration into EZD. I'm a drummer by birth so I like it for triggering. I'm trying to now, learn the damn software, and create a Purdie Shuffle in it. The closest I've gotten is a swing, 6/8... close, but no cigar.

[@ShootieSchool]

Thank you les!! It would be swing in 4/4 or straight in 6/8, no?

[@colatutube]

Just run into these videos, first class and extremely informative. Thanks shootie.

You mentioned ( 17:58) to check out your video on using Ez Drummer 2 with your DAW, Is that vide still available? I searched your vid's and don't seem to find it, Thanks..

It's a setup up for some vids coming out soon. Standby. Thanks for asking.

[@samuelmaylor6634]

love the vids, learning because of these video. do you have a video on how to record into DAW/Studio One?? I've watch the routing video and set that up but when I record nothing happens? thanks

[@ShootieSchool]

No I don’t have that specific video. If you want to chat about it visit me on my Discord.

[@jpi6668]

Hey Shootie, Great Video series, I have watched all of them 2 or 3 times and taken notes. It has been most helpful. I have one question, somewhere in the videos I thought that I saw were you could drop, say a fill, in the middle of a track and that ED2 would automatically insert it, and it would preserve the length of the track, and you would not have to cut and insert. I have searched through the videos and cannot find where this was said... Am I hallucinating? PS: Toontracks should absolutley be paying for your effort...

[@ShootieSchool]

That's great to hear, I appreciate you commenting. I used the Song Creator for this, but know that it works with any midi file dragged from any location... kzbin.info/www/bejne/ioqqd3iuf9Zlldk

[@jpi6668]

@@ShootieSchool thanks, I thought I was loosing my mind..

[@danbroussard8714]

I believe this is what I'm looking for. Example: I have a conga part for the verse of the song. Then at the chorus I want to use a trap (kick & snare) with ride cymbal. Then revert back to the verse setup again. This incorporates two different packs (Latin & Modern/Vintage). Can I use two different drum packs? Haven't got this to shift yet. Thanks! Great videos!

[@ShootieSchool]

You certainly can. When mixing different toontrack EXZ packs you will hear unnatural dynamic shifts when combining them back to back. Adjust these dynamics per midi block using the Velocity Slider in the top of the Search/Browser Tab or use the Edit Play Style window. I have vids for each of those features if you’re not familiar. Comment back if you need.

[@ShootieSchool]

... or put a midi block from one EZX in the son GB track, and copy and paste elements from another EZX midi file from your browser/search tabs. Use Edit Play Style to massage the new and different sounding instruments together. Thanks for saying, btw.

[@danbroussard8714]

@@ShootieSchool I'll try this. I've viewed several of your really good videos and would appreciate the vid references for this ability to view and study. Thanks much!!

[@ShootieSchool]

@@danbroussard8714 Check the Browser video at about 8:30 kzbin.info/www/bejne/jom0kpqjgM6ifJY I would say the whole Edit Play Style would be healthy for you here, but have your specific situation in mind while watching throughout... kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKirm2CNn96eqpo

hi ...great videos ..... thanks a lot for doing this .... really amazing job ....are you planning on tutorials on other programs ? i would love to see your videos on photoshop ;) ......anyway ..... i was wondering if i can i speed up for example ending of the song ? i mean if the song is 120 can i make it going constantly faster and faster to lets say to 150 in last 8 bars ?

[@ShootieSchool]

Thanks for saying! I may go as far as video tutorials, but I think this channel will be focused mainly on audio/music production. Thanks for stopping by!

[@iamtheimagedoctor]

To save some confusion: The CLICK button only shows up in stand alone mode. If you are using this with your DAW you'll need to get the click from the DAW.
