Hey all.
So, I used to make beats in Cubase by simply cutting, copying and pasting individual wav files into whatever structure (ie different wav files for the kick, snare, hats etc etc) and was more than happy doing it like this.
Now I have gone and purchased Battery 3 as I wanted access to the crap load of different kits etc. However, I’m finding that after years of making beats this way and getting it down to a fine art, I find it really difficult and frustrating to shape my beats through a midi controller and Battery (and just using midi tracks for beat making applications in general!).
My question – is there any other way to utilize my library of Battery beats without having to trigger them through midi and edit in the midi piano roll? Like, is it possible to access these sounds as they’re individual wav files so I can do it like the old days??? I can’t seem to find them on my hard drive in this form, I assume it is some sort of file type specific to Battery that means you cant do what I wanna do, and can only use them through the Battery VSTI…?
OR – should I be making these beats in EZDrummer (which I don’t have nor do I really know what it is, I’ve just seen it mentioned a few times here) or something similar???
I hope this makes sense!
Cheers
