[@LinCRecords]

Hi! Thanks for the video, is it possible to use my own samples with this technique?

[@dandanthesoundman7607]

WOW!!! I'm a professional mix / recording engineer, been using Logic since the eMagic days & I only found this out now... In 2021 🤣😭🤯 (too many emotions hitting at once)

[@Producelikeapro]

Haha glad to be able to help!

[@bastkin1]

Dude, I'm going to buy your course at some point. I had no idea Logic even had this function.

[@CaptainPantys]

Awesome tutorial bro, my metal mixes are sounding even more brutal now

[@davidburnagemusic]

can you adjust the threshold etc after making the midi replacement track?

[@MatthewDiamante]

This might sound dumb- but this works with any DAW, right? Similar at least?

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Matthew, yes from what I can tell every DAW has a way to do this! Pro Tools has SoundReplacer for instance! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@owenandkewell]

Not all have it built in like Logic and Cubase, but there are many plugins like Steven Slate Drums.

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks owenandkewell! Interesting! I would have assumed that every DAW had it by now. Pro Tools has had SoundReplacer for many years now, late 90's or early 2000's I believe. Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@richardwilliamsmusic]

How do you get the library on the left to show the Acoustic Snares within the Drums & Percussions folder? I keep getting the default library and can't find this one. Thank you.

[@israel_vazquezh]

Buenísimo !!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@nana-ld4cr]

Amazing. Thank you so much

[@Producelikeapro]

Hi Derek L I know! Great stuff! Thanks Rob! Have a marvelous time recording and mixing many thanks Warren

[@LisaMarshallMusic4]

Hi Warren, Thanks for the tutorial. I followed your instruction but for some reason the midi track is not writing...any thoughts or help, please :) Thank you!

[@DrumApe]

Amazing help! Thanks!!

[@Vostorg777]

Can you in logic fast replace snare drum from sample brouser (apple loops,wave, mp3) ?

[@Producelikeapro]

Great question Vostorg! Maybe Rob can answer? Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@reveilmusic3741]

Not looking to replace kicks and snares with stock Logic sounds. How do you replace with your own sounds?

[@oasisdei]

Is there any way to add more samples per the snare and kick to the sound library? I feel there is only 3 maybe 4 snare samples that really work for anything that even sound like a decent snare replacement, Thanks

[@ElijahBarrientos]

Is there any way to do this live?

[@momchilatanasoff7456]

Thank you!

[@catpeterson8151]

Excellent!

[@vadimkorob2689]

WOW!!! Thanks guys!!!

[@guitarvaultstore8032]

Great tip! For some reason logic won't let me select the "replace or double drum track" option (its greyed out in the menu) on all of my drums and 90% of my tracks. Anyone have any idea why this may be the case?

[@westbethkid]

I think you have to have selected an audio track in the Main/Arrange window, it works for me. If you have selected a Midi track it will be greyed out.

[@benmaguire4098]

Gr8 tips .. thanks

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks Ben! I really appreciate it! Rob did an a wonderful job! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@dustinyager5752]

Great video! One thing that I'm curious about and I've run into this issue a few times... is there an easy way to deal with the snare when the drummer switches to rim hits mid song? I suppose adjusting the threshold is one way or using the original take but I was curious if there is a way to make it track the difference.

[@NilsHedstrom]

This is awesome! Going to record an EP and this will definitely boost my snare sound if my tuning/head is not perfect. In school we recorded a project in a hurry on a snare that hasn't been properly tuned in months and with drum replacement it actually sounded good!

[@tripad3lphia]

Welp, I fail at step one, my "replace or double..." is greyed out. I've already created a custom kit but want to go back and change my snare type, can't seem to bring up the kit editor and have a feeling I'm going to have to create a whole new kit just to change my snare. So far I'm unable to ask Google the right question, any tips welcomed. lol

[@tonymancini8170]

Aaron Moses I know this is a million years later and you probably already found the answer, but make sure you’re not working with multiple takes. It will only work on a flattened drum performance. It would be easiest to comp the performance, do any timing corrections, and finish with triggering samples. Hope that helps!

[@mattvernon4497]

@@tonymancini8170 A million years after he asked and 7 months after you answered it help me out a lot today. Thanks!

[@GabeKubanda]

@@mattvernon4497 hah, a million years later, but I was having the same issue today, so hell yeah, thanks Tony!

[@maxwellbrand]

I had no idea! I fucking love you! haha...these teases are staring to convince me to get the whole course. :)

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks ever so much Max! Thanks to Rob! I'm so so glad to be able to help! Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren

[@Bflatest]

What about if I have a full drum set on one audio file???

[@Cantabria26]

Can u do this with drums recorded by a mobile phone?

[@budandbean1]

Can anyone explain how to do this in Studio One Pro?

[@Producelikeapro]

Great question! That sounds like a wonderful question for David Mood!! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@drummerboypoyntz87]

You can use the gate as a trigger which is what I've done in the past, but it doesn't detect different velocities. So my new favourite method is using the bend tool to detect the transients, then dragging the entire track into a virtual instrument (like impact). This detects the velocities as well as the position of the transients and so replicates the original performance much more faithfully. Search for KsndDEF video on Studio One 3 drum replacement, its quite an easy method once you've figured out what you're doing.

[@joeribraams]

Open the quantization menu and click groove on the left. Then drag the entire drum track into that black rectangle thing. It'll do some analyzing and you'll see some little lines show up in the black box where the drum hits are. Then you open an instrument track with the snare you wanna use, and drag the groove from that black box to the track. Last step is to change the pitch of the midi notes to the one used by your sampler, they all come out as C3 normally. This process also keeps the velocity information intact.

[@dominicsinicrope2795]

Can you load a 3rd party sample to be triggered with the stock logic trigger

[@liamrocks0]

Yes my dude! After you load up a logic sample, replace the sample in the EXS24 (click the edit button on the plugin, drag your new sample in) hope this helps :)

[@mediamanhouston9661]

I use this technique but usually about 20 or 30 % of my doubled snares aren't perfectly in phase with the original snare. If i zoom way in to the sample iI'll notice that sometimes the sample is off a little causing a phase cancelling type sound. It's really tedious to go in note by note and line them up for a 4 minute song. Any suggestions for this?

[@daystardaystardaystardayst1865]

I found it strange that he didnt addres this. The midi replacement is not perfectly inline with the Audio.

[@metroidandroid]

wonder how to do that on fl studio

[@Producelikeapro]

That's an extremely good question Davi! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@andymusicyoutube]

Hello Warren! Can you suggest please how to remove click when it bleeds through the headphones in mics, when recording only 1 acoustic guitar (fingerstyle), especially in quiet parts? i need click cause i want perfect timing and to put afterwards in some parts delay effect.

[@SteveH4es]

Try to turn the click down or point the mic away but to where it still gets the job done. Or you could try a buffer. Piece of material in between your phones and the mic. Make sure your headphones are really isolating. Not loose on your ears or sound will sneak through. Orrrrr i think there might be plugins Jsut for this if you look it up. Key Is prevention. Not rely on fixing later. Hope this helps.

[@SteveH4es]

Also, if you’re using a condenser mic , it will come through more than if you used maybe a dynamic. Try different mics.

[@pabawi7204]

Can I drum replace in real time?

What you were looking for: ctrl + D

Is Rob actually secretly Robert Webb? Between the voice and the look he's pretty close...

WOW

[@Producelikeapro]

Yes indeed!! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks, Warren

[@bill4510]

A guy wants me to replace all the acoustic drum parts with midi parts, wish me luck

[@summerfazed]

Looking to use my own real sample not logic sample

[@RamRaviMusic]

the title says "fast easy" and yet this video is 13 fucking minutes long. WHY?! all I wanted to know is how to replace a sample clap with another! ITS SO MUCH EASIER IN FL STUDIO!!!!!!!!

[@wolfnotemusic]

The comp on yer Vox is fucked, mate

[@Pepeshungry]

100%%%%%%

[@AudioWonderland]

I hate samples/replacement/augmentation. Whatever you choose to call it. If you can't adequately mic drums you are in the wrong line of work. "It doesn't sound, too fake"... that is just an unbelievable comment... If your artist can't play their own instrument competently, well that's just pathetic.

[@Producelikeapro]

I completely understand if a technique goes against your sensibilities! As a Professional Producer/Engineer and Mixer many of us are faced with having to not only fix but change sounds for many artistic reasons. Tricks to augment and/or replace sounds have been around for many years. Jack Douglas, Shelly Yakus, Jay Messina and many other people have described doing various techniques since the early 70's, it is what Professionals have done to get the best results they can. Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

[@RustyKnorr]

You’re a jackass. This is done on literally every recording in every studio on any record you’ve heard in the last decade. You need to wake the fuck up and look around. NO one uses acoustic drum sounds anymore. Get off your high horse and actually learn something useful.
