You can select just a section to drag up or down by clicking command and dragging. You will notice each hit, if the red bar is within a transient, will have a green bar indicating a midi note should be placed here.Ĭlick and drag the red bar up and down to change the threshold of the detection. Press ‘Render’ on the top left to quickly run through the audio and detect transients. The aim of the game is to make sure that the red bar is below each transient. In this case, it is the whole audio file. You do this by clicking and dragging untill the green bar selects everything you would like to be detected. Drum tracker will then ask you to select the area you would like to analyze. Browse for the appropriate file, then press ‘Done’. This is asking for the audio file you are going to replace from. When you open Drumtracker, you will be asked to add an ‘Input’, or you can select from the bottom left. You can then bounce this to disk as a WAV. You can also see on the left, my channel strip, with everything bypassed or zeroed. As you can see below, I have only got the kick drum soloed, with the selection bar selecting the whole song.
#What is toontrack drumtracker software
It is important to get the audio file as clean as possible, as the software is going to be reading this, so if you have compressed it to hell, and destroyed at the transients, Drumtracker is going to find it hard to detect hits. I am using Logic 9, so I simply level everything on the kick drum INCLUDING the bus and output effects, if you are using them, and solo it, then set my locators to the start of the track (01:00:00:00.00) and after the final hit. The easiest way is to export just the kick drum from the session you are working on, with everything zeroed. For this example I am using the kick drum from a track I am currently working on, where the kick drum did not have near enough umph, so I decided to replace it. The first thing you need is an audio file of the drum you want to replace. Logic 9 has a similar thing built in, and there are many pieces of real-time drum replacement software out there, but after using most of them, I find this to be the most accurate, and you can really get in there and make sure every note is correct. It is a great alternative to drum triggers, and a great way to replace or reinforce drums. This is a great piece of standalone software that detects transients of drums, then replaces them with midi notes. It's a pretty cool tool, my biggest gripe was that it used fairly anemic samples during the processing stage, and they could be misleading if you were using it for it's intended application.Īs a sound design tool it could be really cool though - I'll be grabbing a copy shortly!Ĭomparing it to Drumagog, neither one can pull every single nuance from a complex mix, both can grab more information than you can imagine from dry drum tracks, and the differences between the two are small.Hi, thought I’d do a quick tutorial for Toontracks Drumtracker. Can't remember where I found the Toontracks demo - may have come with Superior 2, it isn't on their web site. and I downloaded a demo of Drumagog at the same time. However, as a long time Toontracks customer I had to give this thing a try. Important caveat - I don't care for the whole concept of drum replacement, or timing correction or pitch correction for that matter.
