I Produce Songs With EZDrummer

[@aleksamrkela831]

EZDrummer is incredibly versatile, and Superior Drummer is even better! It's not so much about what you use, but how you use it, that matters in the end. :D

If there was one piece of ultimate advice in music or film, this is it for sure. Pinning this one. Cheers!

I have addictive drumes 2 and started using EZ drummer 2. More than enough, but its down to me in order to get better skilled no matter what I use.

[@thegroove2000]

Eq, Comprsssion etc is what makes it.

[@katrina_burgoyne]

Well done! Another great video!

[@TheSteveKinney]

Thanks babe!

[@NaweedQadirdotcom]

Thanks for sharing your workflow Steve. This is my approach as well. Since I play keyboards - I would come up with a few ideas and harmonies. Then the first thing I will do is explore various beats from Midi packs in EZDrummer. EZDrummer is easy to operate.

[@TheSteveKinney]

Indeed! And also - great to blend and build sounds with.

[@xrandy11]

I love EZ Drummer and use it all the time. The only problem I have is too many choices for grooves and sounds. I've learned to limit myself to only three kits when I start a song, otherwise I'm there all day auditioning sounds.

[@TheSteveKinney]

Totally! You gotta at least have some sort of vision in the first place - sonically speaking for what you’re creating Or if it’s exploration mode where you don’t even have a riff yet - then like you say - limiting would certainly be a great way to approach it.

[@xrandy11]

@@TheSteveKinney The same with processing plug-ins. I have Logic, so you have so many great plug-ins there and I have a big UAD collection as well (not to mention some Izotope and EZ mix stuff). If you don't limit the amount of compressors, eqs, verbs, delays. etc you'll just end up getting in your own way.

[@TheSteveKinney]

@@xrandy11 I honestly never use the logic ones anymore. The UAD ones are all I use. With the exception of FabFilter pro Q3, sonarworks, & youlean loudness Meter They have different flavors of delays and reverbs - so I know exactly what to call for when I want it. The compressors are like using real world ones - so again. I know what to call for. The pres are color choices - so they are a lot more fun to choose from. But I definitely could see where things could be fatiguing!

@@xrandy11 great point mate!

Hi Steve, are you planning to create a video on EZDrummer Multi Stem in LUNA? No one has covered it yet.

[@TheSteveKinney]

I could definitely make a video on my workflow. I’ve been meaning to talk about ez3 But I almost feel like I’ve missed the boat ha But I could revisit it for sure.

[@NaweedQadirdotcom]

Hi @@TheSteveKinney , you haven’t missed the boat yet 😉 Producers have covered Studio 1, Logic, Pro Tools but no one yet to publish a proper how-to content. To able to control each drum stem in Luna mixer and managing them using either API Vision Control Strip with Oxide or LA 2A and other EQs to finalize them for mix will be a huge help.

[@TheSteveKinney]

@@NaweedQadirdotcom word! Okay! I like it.

[@TheRyanKellner]

Where can one get big realistic snare samples like this? Do they simply come with EZdrummer?

[@TheSteveKinney]

Ez drummer 3 is by far, the best stock library of samples I’ve ever heard. Yes, they come with it, but there are a TON of additional packs that you can buy. Imho no one is doing what toontrack is doing. Best game in town.

[@naturaljoe759]

I just picked up EZ Drummer 2, EZ Mix and a couple sound packs. In a perfect world, I’d have a real drummer at my disposal 24/7 who could come up with awesome shit and send me mixed sound files so I didn’t have to find practice and recording spaces, have him re-record what I didn’t like, and know how to compliment what I hear in my head. Unfortunately, I travel a lot for work, have a bunch of kids, home projects, and other things to do, so I see no problem using something like EZ Drummer to produce music I enjoy. I think that probably sums it up for a lot of people these days, and it would have been historically more prevalent if the technology had been there to make such realistic-sounding sampled percussion.

[@TheSteveKinney]

Great freaking points man!! It’s fun to get one of those electronic kits or even pads and just create what you hear in your head. I totally agree with your sentiment. Cheers!

[@naturaljoe759]

@@TheSteveKinney thanks for the reply! Excellent video!! You hit some very valid points, especially that Kemper comparison. My best friend for the last 20+ years is a drummer and used to curse drummers who used triggers as “cheaters”… until he saw how practical they really were. You’ve earned a subscriber! Also, what kind of chair are you using at your battlestation? Looks comfy!

[@TheSteveKinney]

@@naturaljoe759 ha. Shit, it ain’t all too shabby as a chair. Love of my life got it for me for Christmas a few years back. I believe it’s one of the ergonomic models from either staples. Great to sit it, but what I find hard to deal with sometimes is the arms, they don’t get outta the way like the pro studio chairs do! Not a big deal, cause I’d never use a chair like that for tracking, but sometimes it’s nice to sit comfy and play guitar while writing. Great ergo chair though!

Thanks brotha! All those kits in that pack are awesome sounding, some definitely work better than others though, like you said. Cheers mate!

[@ThatOneSceneDude]

EZ drummer was a game changer for me. As a song writer and self producer, this was just what I needed. I recommend it.

[@TheSteveKinney]

Same dude! Same! Especially having a handful of the different sound packs. It’s damn good. I mean - when I was younger I fiddled with mic’ing kits and the whole shebang. Never sounded good. After years of learning why - I didn’t have a good room, I didn’t have a wall of good pre’s - I didn’t have the right snare or toms for the song - didn’t have a ton of mics to audition. Now - I don’t even bother lol it’s too much work and the world requires too quick of turn around times. This is just easier - sounds just as good. Soooo many benefits. My drummers can make a mistake and I can fix it or change a fill in an instant and not have to working about comping and phase issues. Cheers man! Good on you.

[@ThatOneSceneDude]

@@TheSteveKinney Yep I feel that! I got a Shure mic kit and it sounded good but not as good as it should of. Probably because we recorded it in my bedroom lol. But between the convenience and the quality of sounds, it's too good. No setup, don't have to rent out a studio space for a good sound, etc. Cheers!

[@bryanmontero]

I used Ez drummer for my latest single, and I’m really happy with the results.

[@TheSteveKinney]

EZ drummer is awesome. I find my best results came after I started using some of the other sound packs that they offer. Since not all drum sets are right for every song. Best, Steve

[@blue_mountains28]

Hey congratulations, I hope your single did well. Sorry for the late question if you dont mind?. Did you have any issues with the ezdrummer samples triggering copyright issues like KZbin demonetisation etc.

[@CMDRUMS76]

I used GGD MOdern and Massive. With my Alesis Strike Pro Se and record the tracks individually as an acoustic kit. And then I can transfer the files anywhere in the world. Saves time and like you said, I don’t have a great live room with tons of gear. So this made the most sense :)

[@EirikHasselberg]

As a drummer I use Roland e-drums and use them to trigger Superior Drummer 3, then I get the best of both worlds.

[@TheSteveKinney]

100% - it’s where it’s at. My e-kit is still in storage. My brother does most of my drums, I believe he has an Alesis. Such a great method. Saves so much time!

[@EirikHasselberg]

@@TheSteveKinney And when done like this we also can change the BPM up or down if needed. I have a female jazz singer that always want to change key and tempo (even after we have settled on something, just because) and that give me the freedom to handle these things on the fly without going mental after spending hours on getting the drums right.

Bottom line, only engineers/producers/musicians seem to be concerned with how songs are made and what tools are used.

Do you use a midi keyboard/pad to create new ryhthm tracks or you ‘compose it’ on your DAW like Luna..?

I’ll typically use an e-kit. However, sometimes if I don’t have that I’ll use a midi keyboard.

[@iceize212]

Nice video, I was wondering if anyone else had trouble with placing the midi on an ableton midi track instead of it playing from the EZ drummer session. Is it possible to edit midi packs in the piano roll on Ableton?

[@gonebymidnight2881]

Awesome video Steve, thanks. Which would be the best packs for 90s rock, garage rock and alternative rock?

[@TheSteveKinney]

That's an awesome question. I think it largely depends on your influence and what kinda sound you're really going for as there are a number of options that come to mind. I like the Post Rock kit a lot. I think the new Gospel pack has tons of really cool drum sounds. Alt-Rock EZx does exactly what it sounds like. Using additional samples from the Kicks & Snares to supplement would be a great way to expand the sound palette. Side note: the hard rock one was made by bob rock - and has almost the exact sound of Metallica recreated. lol and if you like the MASSIVE drum sound of Nickelback from the Dark Horse era ... check out the Rock Solid ezx. fantastic.

[@gonebymidnight2881]

@@TheSteveKinney thanks man!! Wow I did not know about bob rock producing the hard rock EXZ, I love The black album sound. I play more of a black rebel motorcycle kinda sound now but I have a thrash metal past lol. I was about to buy EZ with all these kits but the fact that the software is super old, the price has been increasing to almost double over the last 6 years with no updates , and a comment from Toontrack themselves saying this has been built on an old software architecture model which makes it impossible to scale up… I’m now looking for other options but it does sound really good

[@SeanWyseman]

@@TheSteveKinney Yeah I recall that video. Really well done. Do you have one on EZbass?

[@SeanWyseman]

@@naturaljoe759 I see EZD as my best tool for getting a studio quality drum sound that's already prepped & mixed so that I can have a quality drum track to write a song. As you may or may not know EZD samples are ready to mix & sound great out of the box. I used to manage a large studio that did a lot of different kinds of work. When we produced a song we'd record all the guide tracks because VI's were not invented yet. With EZD you have a set of quality guide tracks that sound better faster than we could ever record them & also a lot of premade midi tracks that really groove. They are generally not quantized because they preserved the feel of the drummers groove. With Superior Drummer - first I usually do all the song writing in EZD with EZD kits & samples but I'll use midi from anywhere. Then when it's time to mix I just remove EZD plugin & replace with SD3 plugin & begin mixing with it OR I send the stems to a drummer or studio I know to have a really awesome drummer create the drum track now that the song has been written. If I'm super impressed with a song it goes to the studio. If I like it enough to publish it but not enough to send to the studio then I use SD3 to mix. A couple I've left the EZdrummer track in because it sounded the best with the song & sat better in the mix - even though I'd expected to have found a better sounding kit in SD3.

[@naturaljoe759]

@@SeanWyseman Holy shit, that was an insanely thorough response. I’ve screenshot’d it all for my personal notes. Thank you so much for being so detailed.

[@teribei6993]

So how do you get ez drummer trAck into the daw?

Hey mate. It’s an virtual instrument. So load an instrumental track. 😎 The midi itself can be loaded within the ezdrummer plugin or you can drag and drop into your timeline. Cheers!

[@rickhorvath]

I’m still using EZ version 1 but do have several kits. I prefer playing actual drums, creating midi of the snare, kick and Toms - and using EZ or even Logic drum samples. This leaves real hats and cymbals. I may consider a midi pad at some point. Great video !

[@TheSteveKinney]

100% this is an awesome technique to do. It’s funny. You can actually use this technique with EZ as well. Take the midi notes from the kick and snare and add another layer of drums for triggers. Doing it with real drums too gets amazing results. Love it! Cheers!

One thing that I don't get Why would someone be disappointed to learn somebody uses Plug-ins Live or in the studio. Depending on your processing you can make the end result as big or bigger than with any other gear Fact is : you can do that even with free plug-ins - LOL And when it comes to drums, Tomas Haake from Meshuggah uses a Toontrack Plug-in for his kick drum in Live situations which makes a lot of sense, since he was part of the creation of the brand Their stuff sounds great even without any further processing - once you add your own "sauce" then the possibilities are endless

[@TheSteveKinney]

Well said. But truthfully - I think it’s just kind of a stigma. It’s like those pictures of people “in the studio” and it’s a closet LOL I mean. If it sounds great and the track is cool - no one would care, if they didn’t know. But everyone just wants to imagine great sounds come from beautiful intricate setups at a studio like blackbird with real performances and most of the time it’s just not the case.

As an example, my Logic Pro instruments don't show up when I launch an instrument track. I don't want to buy EZ if the same thing happens. Am I missing something? Thanks and take care.

[@TheSteveKinney]

More than likely - the logic to instruments are native to logic and do not work in other daws. Haven’t tested with PT. Now that said - EZ does work within Luna. No multi-channel instrument output yet - this hasn’t been a big deal for me anyways - as I like to bounce my Luna drums down once I find my sounds - and then I process the tracks as if they were recorded wav stems. Either way - EZ does work with Luna. Cheers Justus!

Ez drummer rules. Backwards compatibility with the older sound packs, and always putting out tons of new ones, along with great midi packs. Outside of that, a lot of people like slate drums.

And how it makes the listener feel. If you’re not good at paying attention to detail - you can certainly get an uncanny result with EZdrummer where it sounds kinda robotic.
