Hi all, I'm a long time lurking and very occasional poster, but now that I'm on the cusp of a house purchase that contains a double garage! Better yet, my darling wife is more than happy for me to convert the garage into a studio. We see this as a long term project, but I'd like to get...

Hi all, I've been using my midi drum kit with ezdrummer for a while now, but want to be able to record onto cubase while someone else is playing. This becomes difficult because the midi drums seem to snap into place, rather than dropping in where I play them. After a bit of googling it seems...

OK, so me and the band tried to record together and nothing seems to be in time. Is it something to do with this quantize business? I'm completely lost as to why we're in time when we play, but not when we listen back. Please help!!

It's finally working! Thank you all! Before I go off and do wonderful things, is there anything I should know about using Midi and audio together when recording? Am I going to have any issues with the final mixdown?

Here's some photos, first what I've done to get Cubase working as host for EZ drummer and to get the edrums responding. Things I've changed And here's my issue. I click record, start bashing away at the drums and all the notes are clustered at the very beginning, as if it hasn't registered...

Thanks for the input so far guys. I've managed to get it playing through cubase (as in it recognises the edrums and ez drummer) but I can't get it to record in real time. It just put all the hits as the first first note right at the beginning of the file. How do I set it up to record in real...

Thanks all, I'm not at my setup at the moment, but just to be clear here's what I do: Edrums > FP10 (via Midi) > Computer (via firewire) Open Cubase. Devices > VST instruments > Add EZ drummer. It should then ask if I want a MIDI track created. Click Yes. Then in the MIDI track window I...

Right, so I've just bought the following: Millenium MPS100 edrum EZ drummer This has just been added to my normal recording setup of FP10 Cubase SX Which works fine for recording audio. After a couple of hours I've managed to get the Edrums and Toontrack solo (stand alone host for EZ drummer)...

So I've found a good deal on a Roland HD1 and thought I'd buy it to make practising with my band a littler easier. However, I read through a review and they mentioned using it the MIDI output to trigger samples from software like EZ drummer. I've got a Presonus FP10 which has a MIDI in and...

Its threads like this that remind that these things can be done. I've had a dream of making a home studio for a while now, and once I've got most other parts of my life sorted I hope to do the same thing. Congratulations on all your (and your family's) hard work, it's clearly paid off and...

You know what I hate? When I mentioned to people I do a bit of home recording and they say something like "oh, so you've got a Mac?" and when I say "no" I get the response "really, they're meant to be great for home recording?" These people don't even have a clue how to begin recording audio...

Did you regret not buying the 5212? I'm always interested in knowing of any good amp bargains that might be out there.

What a lovely heart warming story for a Friday morning. I too am going to request you record it for us all to enjoy.

My dad's band actually recorded with him on a couple of occasions. Apparently a very nice man. I've grown up with a lot of his stuff and seen a fair few "Meek bands", so I've got a soft spot for all that stuff. I don't know if anyone has seen the film "Telstar" but it's a good one and worth a...

I've got an FP10 and a Pod 2.0 and I connect from the out of the Pod to the mic/instrument in of the FP10, which works fine.
