Basically Sirius this is my typical 'creating a new track' consists of:
1. Open Cubase SX
2. File New Project - which then opens a nice new clean project
3. Then i will activate my LM4 mk2 drum module in the vst panel
4. I will then create multiple midi tracks i.e 6 for instance for my drums
- 1 for the kick (sound routed to stereo 1)
- 2 for the clap (sound routed to stereo 2)
- 3 for the open hat (sound routed to stereo 3)
- 4 for the closed hat/ride (sound routed to mono 1)
- 5 for the snare (sound routed to mono 2)
- 6 for the crash (sound routed to mono 3 etc)
- Then i will assign them all to say midi channel 10 & give them the GM drum map option in the user panel (makes it easier than using the piano roll editor)
5. Then i will choose the relevant sounds & load them into the LM4 drum module
6. Then i create my drums, i prefer to have a drum beat going while i bash the keyboard trying to write a track
Soz its a bit brief, i 'd be here all day if i went into depth
I am with you sirius, i love creating my own drum grooves with single hit samples, i get bored just importing in loops.
