Ez drummer on multiple tracks help!

[chrisw01a]

Hi there. I'm using Acid pro7 and I want to have control over every single mic/drum track in EZ drummer. I can get EZ drummer set to "Multi-Track" and each mic is listed as "Trk1, Trk2, Trk3 etc." BUT, after that, the only output/sound I can get is from Trk1 which is the kick drum by default. I know I'm just missing something here.

Looking at the meter on the EZ drummer buss, it only moves when i hit the kick drum ( which makes sense because i only get sound from the kick drum [trk1] ), like I need to set some channels or something somewhere, but I don't know what to do.

The synth works flawlessly on "Stereo" mode, but I want more controll over the individual drums! What am I missing here?

Sounds like you got what you want.

You want each trk to be an individual drum right?

I don't know how it works in acid, but in cubase you have VSTi channels in the mixer. So you have a midi track with the drums sent to EZ or AD and it will sound but you can control each drum on its own channel in the mixer. That's what your wanting right?

Don't see what problem your having, do you have to make a kick drum midi part to put on the kick drum part? That would be a hassle to have to do that for each drum.

Well, I have the beginning of what I want. The Soft Synth(EZ Drummer) is sending the the drums to different tracks/channels. The problem is I don't know where they are being sent. Like I said, I can only get audio out of the first track which happens to be the kick drum. Its like I need to tell Acid where to pick them up, but I cant figure out how.

From the EZ drummer interface ( the picture of the drums that you can click on and make each drum activate ) I can make each drum work fine when the mixer mode is set to stereo, but when I go to multi-track like i want, I lose all tracks but the first one. Ez drummer is sending the signal, but Acid is not picking it up.

Hi I have not used acid for ages but in the ez drummer mixer dont make the kick #1 start with #2 then 3 for snare top and bottom and so on then down the bottom you should see a slider come up called Dfh Sampler right click in that slider box look for insert/remove Dfh Sampler outputs there should be a list of outs there so the first one will be the kick choose that then an additional slider will pop up next to the other slider continue on like that till you get all of the sliders then you should be able to work it from there.
hope it works for you.....

the Dfh Sampler slider should come up after you have created a midi track and and in the midi out you have chosen soft synth and found ez drummer in that list....
