Tracktion Waveform 11 Free: 808 Style Drum Pattern Programming (Video 9)

[@liselinney3550]

Thanks for your videos they’ve made my waveform experience enjoyable and it’s really helped me to get to grips with it. Your style is calm easy to follow and very informative. Keep up the good work.

[@InventiveGear]

I appreciate the kind words. It's great to get feedback like that.

[@Gamerline343]

I've been looking for more tutorials using Waveform! I love the DAW but I never find any tutorials on HOW to use features, mostly videos saying it "Hey this a a thing it can do." Thanks a ton!

[@InventiveGear]

More to come!

[@fukcg00gle95]

People like you are what make the internet such a magical place! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@InventiveGear]

Thank you!

[@ssadams]

I really enjoyed the video. It’s so much easier to do rhythms now after watching this. Thanks for the video.

[@InventiveGear]

Glad it helped!

[@Saimannaveed]

Hey thank you soooo much for making it so simple and easy. I was so messed up by watching soo many tutorial videos, but thank God your video appeared and I watched it. Nobody told that how to make a customized loop. Thank you again for you Guidance.... God bless you 😇✨💖💖💖

[@ramonadies]

i downloaded this yesterday and your tutorials are very helpful! tysm

[@InventiveGear]

Glad you like them!

[@RameshSingh-to9ch]

Thanks a lot .. especially for the pace .. love how carefully and slowly :) you progress explaining things .. love it!

[@InventiveGear]

Thank you. I appreciate the feedback!

[@syberiaok]

Finally I've learned how to make drums, great tutorial!

[@lollipopidi9566]

Amazing DAW !!! Really cool !!!

[@peaceandlove1876]

Thank you for sharing these videos. Life is so much fun when you're making music ✌❤

[@InventiveGear]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@samuelsunil1609]

Bro I was looking for a video like this forever

[@samuelsunil1609]

Thank you so much because I was looking how to automate the pitch shift

[@InventiveGear]

Cool!

[@log7978]

Thanks dude i was really struggling when trying to put drum sounds in you helped alot as soon as i get some cash ill hand 10 or so dollars cuz i really owe you.. i was on the verge of giving up so thanks :)

[@vibhorsharma6432]

EXTREMELY HELPFUL I HAD BEEN LOOKING FOR SMTH LIKE THIS SO BADLY THANKSS!!

[@InventiveGear]

Thank you for the comment. Pleased that it was helpful!

[@Byronic19134]

Also i almost feel like this was click bait because i thought it was going to be about 808 sub bass hits lol. But that same process of converting step sequencer to midi clip then simply transposing the notes to follow chord track is a golden workflow.

[@InventiveGear]

Great idea. I want to try your idea on sub bass.

[@SaveTheHumans4Later]

The pitch bends at the end of the video are a really nice technique.

[@InventiveGear]

It's a pretty simple trick actually!

[@jesstygurrea2524]

can anyone help? i put in the step clip and none of the individuals squares were there.

[@InventiveGear]

You probably need to expand the track height. Grab the lower part of the track in the header area and drag it down until you see the rows and steps.

[@wojciechjastrzebski5572]

Can I add the Alter / Ego plugin in this DAW? I have this plugin, but I don't have a DAW program because I create music quite differently. Alter / Ego, on the other hand, requires a DAW program.

[@poeml]

Yes, that works.

[@RobiUlIslam-es4td]

can i take drum sound into piano roll ?

[@mehrintelligence]

Seems like it's not available for the free edition

[@Brian-we2ej]

Bro my micro drum sampler sounds like piano waht do I need to do

[@InventiveGear]

Pretty strange. I hope you go that sorted by now.

[@floppa_papa]

@@InventiveGear I am having the same problem and i cannot find any way to troubleshoot it online, for example, no matter what micro drum sampler preset i use itll just be basic piano sounds. Also tried a 3rd party drum VST called BEAT DRMR and waveform recognizes it and detects audio coming from it but i hear absolutely nothing. It seems there is some sort of problem with the output but being completely new and having zero information to go off of online is making it a headache to figure out how to fix

[@destcleveland8886]

The channels are not coming up when I add the step clip. What should I do?

[@InventiveGear]

You need to hover the mouse over the clip for the channels to appear.

[@Byronic19134]

Waveform is so dope for beat making. How did you get the plugins to display by manufacturer? And being able to pan Hi hats like you can gate and velocity would be dope.

[@InventiveGear]

On the Settings tab, go to the Plugins page. Look for the option "Selector Sorting" at the bottom. Set that to "Sort by manufacturer." I hear what you say about panning the hats. You can do that with automation similar to the way I did here with pitch. It would be cool to have that as well as note repeat work like the V/G!

[@vcodev108]

How to add swing?

[@sea_low7627]

how can I make the kick or any other drum mark the white pattern boxes like you-- I'm in waveform free your version is different -- thanks

[@InventiveGear]

I did a new video on this for version 11.5. Maybe this will help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnOUeJmgrK10nbM

[@dunkley7776]

Great tutorial!!! Thank you so much.

[@InventiveGear]

You are so welcome!

[@sandysmusicchannel6609]

What was the use of drum sampler in this?? Is it coz without a plugin ,you cannot load midi clip and make it audible?

[@InventiveGear]

Right, without a drum instrument you don't get any sound.

[@jmm1233]

if put drum sampler into a rack you can separate the audio of each sample into different tracks from the rack and just have one instance of the sampler

[@andiarbeit1786]

Which sampler do you use for this? Doesn´t seem to work with the Micro Drum Sampler.

[@matthewmccormick4055]

Mine is different what version is this

[@InventiveGear]

The browser Actions tab was added to the Free edition with version 11.5. Since 11.5 this video should be relevant for Free, OEM, and Pro editions.

[@ucheattoh]

Your videos contribute to the fact that iI am about to splash my cash on it. Using the demo. Still getting used to the workflow. I only wish there was the ability to adapt view to grid line option. And a better layout for the instrument on the right. Current design is too crowded. Overall I'm having a nice experience with waveform.

[@InventiveGear]

I am only trying to explain how things work here. Fortunately the Free version is very full featured. Of course upgrading, adding instruments, or sound packs is what funds development over at TSC!

[@sekritskworl-sekrit_studios]

THANK YOU!!!

[@bajistaman]

Hi, is there a way to route multiple channels from something like EzDrummer2 in waveform 11.5?

[@bajistaman]

Waveform Racks!

[@InventiveGear]

This shows the basic setup: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6i9lZKOobZges0

[@marbelpopoteur1479]

Good morning, Can you make a video explaining how to split MIDI notes into new tracks?

[@InventiveGear]

Would you be more specific. Are you saying you want to separate Kick, Snare, Hats, Claps MIDI notes to separate tracks?

[@marbelpopoteur1479]

@@InventiveGear Yeah, I have a drum loop MIDI region and i would like to separate it into new tracks where can control de kick, snare, etc. separately

[@RemiGemini]

for some reason I can't change the bpm despite clicking on it. I did this before and I decided to start a new project but now it isn't working Edit: I figured it out by pulling up the properties panel (bottom left button on the screen) and changed it in there. Still don't know why it didn't change by clicking on it though

[@InventiveGear]

Maybe you are on a different version. In the past the Properties panel was the only way to change it.

[@RemiGemini]

@@InventiveGear I've updated it since this comment but I'll have to check if it worked, thanks for the reply

[@FW-411]

Are all the effects like the pitch shifter in waveform free?

[@InventiveGear]

I think the pitch shifter is included. I can't seem to install Waveform Free along with the Pro version so I can't say definitively. You could use either the MIDI Modifier or Pitch Shift plugin.

[@syafiaqil9425]

I need help. Why does the panel on the left on my Waveform doesn't show Action tab?

[@InventiveGear]

I realize now that the Actions panel is only available on the Pro version of Waveform. You can do the same things from the controls panel at the bottom.

[@syafiaqil9425]

@@InventiveGear I see. Thank you.

[@lilnoro1694]

good tutotial

[@InventiveGear]

Thank you.

[@JamesHardaker]

I dont have an action tab, not sure why

[@InventiveGear]

It is a feature of Waveform 11 Pro. If you are on the free version you can find the same features in the Controls panel at the bottom.

[@JamesHardaker]

@@InventiveGear thx

weird i cant change my bpm from 120 to 66 on waveformfree. Any idea why?

[@1Minute_Japan]

all good. found a solution. kzbin.info/www/bejne/roKbopuEe5qop9U

[@Dave-Rough-Diamond-Dunn]

I just type it in the box where it states the BPM, on Waveform, it's not very obvious that you can change the information shown just by typing.

Moron Mode but I will learn

"But I will learn". Excellent quote of the day!
