Bouncing Tracks in Superior Drummer 3

[@chrisogle001]

Excellent video! This answered more questions about Superior Drummer 3 than I originally had. Thanks!

[@NickiTedesco]

Thank you so much, this was super helpful! Exactly what I was looking for.

[@mcn1ff]

Thanks for taking the time to do this. Was helpful :-)

[@beatkultr]

Just learned how to export all the drum stems thanks to you.

[@donaldhokanson3321]

That's awesome. I've been doing that lately as well.

[@KyleValet]

VEry clear... only one who made sense...ty

[@locifer696]

Love this idea my dude, I’m doing the same thing. Getting a base kit sound from a decent pre set I like, that is not too over processed, then put those audio tracks into my daw and mix to taste!🤘

[@Banzurit]

Very helpful, thank you

Thanks for all the video ,,,I learned tons off it ,,,,at the end of the day Less Is always Better ,,,Thanks for all the info ,,

this video just saved my recordings. thank you

Glad it helped!

@@donaldhokanson3321 when you bounce everything as separate tracks do you adjust all of the volumes at the proper levels, basically at hot as you get them without peaking? Im going to send it all to a professional mixer, and im just wondering if there is a specific level every drum file should be at, and how to set them of possible.

[@donaldhokanson3321]

@@straightbrutality9264 if you're sending it to a professional mixer don't worry about getting the tracks louder. They have the ability to do that and usually appreciate having tracks with plenty of headroom. Makes it easier to mix. You can have the levels how it sounds good to your ears, without clipping of course, and just send that. No need to do any pre-processing. That's literally their job.

@@donaldhokanson3321 i appreciate the info, so there isn’t specific level everything should be at without clipping of course? Im just trying to make it as easy as possible for everyone involved.

[@donaldhokanson3321]

@@straightbrutality9264 Not really. In the digital recording world you don't have to worry about the noise floor as much. And if you're using SD3 or any other VST instrument you don't have to worry about it at all. If you're still nervous check your mix against a standard loudness measurement like LUFS. When your whole mix is playing you probably want to be under -20LUFS so the mix engineer has enough headroom to work with.

[@RcKDrUmm3R]

You can just export each drum one at a time by soloing the snare for example, and bouncing that as one stereo track. Easier than messing with the outputs

[@RcKDrUmm3R]

Just takes time to solo one drum, export, solo another than export, etc

[@JacksonWhyte]

This was very very helpful, Thank you :D

[@keithstead5175]

I didn't get why you are making another bus for the kit, snare, toms etc. When not take the output from the already bussed channels. This way you'll still get the processing that's already there, apart from the processing on the Kit, which, as you said, you can emulate in your mix. Did I miss something?

[@NickiTedesco]

I saw your question and started scratching my head and asking the same. However, I continued and realized that it's because those are going to a BUS, he then set those out to an OUTPUT. The software doesn't have an option to bounce a bus, it only has an option to bounce the outputs.

[@ElliottErnst]

@@NickiTedescoso HOW do you bounce the OUTPUTS WITH!! The BUS Prosessing??? Essentially keeping the preset sound. I would appreciate if you could explain

[@stephinit27]

Very nice I was thinking of doin this thinking why would I mess with Bob rocks setup ? Automation afex so on. My thought.

[@allendean9807]

I have a question; i prefer to write midi drums in my logic piano roll, over SD3. How would i go about getting those patterns back into the SD3 mixer, in order to bounce to audio?

[@pandemic7]

I'm wondering the same thing. Any chance you ever figured it out?

[@allendean9807]

@@pandemic7 export track as midi, save to say, desktop, then, drag it back into the SD3 mixer

[@mattbennett6141]

Great vid, thanks.

[@rafaelhinds4394]

I agree, this was super helpful

[@EstebanFunkmasta]

thanks man!

[@ST-fl5fy]

I am doing this but the exports when I play them don't have the same sound. They are missing the FX in the mixer? I have superior 2

[@littlejoe2010]

When I do this, the outputted files aren’t adhering to the project tempo (I have ‘follow host’ enabled). How can I correct this?

[@noahofficialmusic]

Hey .. can u confirm that output tracks are skipped when there is no midi routed to them? I set up output tracks for all of the Rack and Floor Toms separately and the Output Bounce skipped the Tom tracks with no midi data. It was confusing at first and then I realized only a couple of five Tom tracks actually had data on them. Thx much

[@Nikkimaya1]

Maybe I'm missing something, but why can't you just select multi channel output under the mixer tab in the upper left corner? That's how I have been doing it and the whole set sounds in my DAW as individual tracks just like it did in SD3 as one stereo track.

[@bdshaw0819]

The is how I'm doing it as well

[@JamesonTylerBynum]

I have no audio coming from any outputs after 1 and 2. Anyone have any idea why? The signals are there but only audio from Kick (1/2) is coming out. I rerouted each individual thing to a different out like he did

[@JFKDrums]

same problem

[@JamesonTylerBynum]

@@JFKDrums I figured it out. Instead of selecting Stereo when you go to load your plugin, you have to select Multi-track

[@nichttuntun3364]

Doesn't this thing have multiple outs for each team in SD? So we can record all tracks individually into DAW or process from the start within the DAW? I don't like those DAW within DAW mixing approaches. The drum kits should be unprocessed and then open for sound design within your DAW to use your well known and favorite processing tools. It's that possible with SD3? If not we won't get friends :)

[@ddmann7473]

thank you. thank you.

[@todalmondmusic3503]

Hi there, I didn't create the drums in the actual superior drummer 3. I took the samples from the grooves and put them straight into the logic pro x DAW. I'm wanting to split the the drums up into individual tracks, then load them onto logic. How can I do this? When I used superior drummer 2 I did this easily .

[@PhilipGregory1981]

Exactly my problem. Can't find a solution for this, and this video does not show the solution. There's no reason for Superior to have changed this feature. So stupid.

[@leocirella3576]

I’m having an issue where when I bounce my drum part to an audio track the volume is extremely low when I play it back even with the levels adjusted so that audio 1+2 out is at 0db when bouncing the audio. I read on another post that bouncing everything on separate outputs solves this problem but is there a way or rather a fix for this so that when I bounce my mix as a whole onto one track it’ll be the correct volume?

[@toddscotdrumcovers2341]

Hi, what kit and preset is this?

[@webbdean3132]

I notice a popping sound when I bounce down my audio tracks. Do you know why this happens?

[@donaldhokanson3321]

Maybe check to make sure that your buffer isn't set too low. If you're rendering I would set it at least at 512 or higher.

[@jamjestrysiek]

Split stereo microphone is more for Pro Tools as PT has stereo channels made from two separate mono tracks, not like Cubase and most of other DAWs. I wish Superior would let me bounce all microphones with all the processing. I like to work on separate drums the way how you would get them from real recording. This allows me to work on a material similar to the real thing.

[@donaldhokanson3321]

I agree.

[@mikei5104]

Hey does anyone happen to know why it doesn't bounce a song with tempo changes properly?

[@danteyoutu]

That’s a pain. You have to first add a midi with the tempo of the song to the superior drummer midi track (that’s a whole process). Then you have to turn off Follow host on SD3 and then you can bounce it.

[@antonboiko1773]

Like!) But tooooo long! 5 min and thats it!)

[@musicinthemaking8519]

Yeah I'm going to try and make some more concise videos going forward. Thanks for the input!

[@horacestacey772]

I'm having trouble getting the audio from superior to studio one 5

[@magusmusic]

Trying your technique I get not all channels could be created and it fails.

[@TheVioletShift]

Not crazy at all. You should see how I am exporting each individual track along with bleed tracks and ambience tracks. The last song I worked on had 25 individual tracks total.

[@Nikkimaya1]

Helpful video but a huge waste of time.You should think of using something called editing. Turn a 20 min video into a 5 min video. Other than that, great info.

[@donaldhokanson3321]

Yeah, I didn't have a way to edit videos at this time. My future ones will be edited better.

I only survived 9 mins of this - and I'll never get those 9 back. Came for potential pro information - was stuck for 9 mins watching someone cluelessly stumble around. 14k+ views and 129 subscribers explains everything.

[@PhilipGregory1981]

This is stupid. You used to be able to bounce it simply, but now this nonsense.
