hello !

Im totally new to midi and I have a small mission to carry out !

I have a bass drum track recorded from a live session as a .wav which is spot on for timing, but sound-wise its rubbish.


I have a Roland Juno-D which has the most glorious bass drum sound ever, Im wondering if theres a way to replicate get the original track to the keyboard, and get a midi track back from it which has the nice bass at the right timing.....

I use Cool Edit Pro 2

Soundcard is a Tascam US-122

Also have Digital Ear (wav to midi convertor) if that helps


Can anyone give my a step by step idiots guide to :

> making the midi file from the drum track

> sending the midi to the keyboard and having it play the correct sound

> sending the signal back to the computer

> recording that signal



Id really appreciate your help on this one
thanks

Well your converter should have some sort of documentation available to show you how to step by step turn wav's to MIDI. Start there.

As far as the the MIDI goes, you'll need another sequencer. Cool Edit doesn't support MIDI tracks. There are plenty of budget sequencers out there that will do both Audio and MIDI. You could utilize Juno D AND Cool Edit, but you would need to sync up them with a MIDI sequencer too, which would require a sync generator.

Do a search around the web, there are plenty of sequencers that will do what you want, and check your local magazine store as a lot of magazines (i.e. Computer Music or Music Tech) usually include some free sequencers (usually older versions, but most will included the functionality your after). You could always then take the completed audio files and import them back into Cool Edit, where your probably more comfortable working.
