Drum Machine Output Options in Cubase 14

[@pnutbuttajellee1394]

The drum pad easy submix output is nice. It's very similar to groove agent.

Thanks as always for this. I’ve been playing with both suggestions for a couple of days and tend to favour the simplicity of the first method. It’s a shame you must set it up each time.

hi Gerald,, I hear you,,, I am wanting to do some videos that show how I am using this stuff in my creations,, I think if one can see it more in action it will become a little clearer,, I'm always looking for the way that gives me the most freedom,, and with that last method I showed you, I can still change drum presets to get completely different sounds and not disturb the other stuff,,, but I also know it can seem a little weird trying to understand the reasoning behind it. And yes there is a lot of room for improvement as far as saving the setup of all of it in general,,,, andrew

Thanks for this video! I've noticed that if you assign a pad to an output and then assign it again to a different output, that first output channel still remains in the mixer and is still labeled as the instrument. Your video shows this too (when you assigned all the bongos/congas to the same output there remained a mixer channel for them). I haven't found a way to remove unused channels from the mixer and have been renaming them as "unused". Have you found a way to remove unused outputs from the mixer?

hi kel,, looks like you have uncovered a glitch,, I went back and tested and the only way I could remove the unused channels was to delete the drum track and start again and reload the preset. I also found that if you do the mouse wheel selection of outputs and over shoot your output number then spin back to the desired number the tracks are mis named in the mixer,, If you use the exact dropdown and select say output 5 for all bongo and congo, then they are correctly added to the one single track with no extras or mis names,,, andrew

Thanks , How to save preset with the audio samples i add ?

[@pnutbuttajellee1394]

THe little 3D box icon to the right of the "Track Preset Name"

[@greekplayback]

@ it is not save the audio samples with the track preset

[@pnutbuttajellee1394]

@@greekplayback It all just saves with the project since I don't see an export option. Since most of the machine itself is a synthesizer, saving samples is probably not its main focus.

Ok-but how to start setting up? I have to look for other tutorials because I don't know anything about the initial set up. I'm trying something on the click and see principle but it's not it...waste of time...for my experiments...
