Hey Everyone,

If I want to play a midi file through EZDrummer and export track by track to Cubase I'm having no issue. But it gets a little ... hmm ... menial? best word I can find, export - kick - import, export - snare - import etc. but I know it has a multi track export function, so help me out here guys, how can I get to export in one jump to different tracks?

Its Cubase AI 4.5 I'm on
 
If I understand you have one MIDI track that you want split into multiple tracks (snare, kick, toms, etc..)

If so you want to add EZ Drummer as a VST Instrument. Then in the little VST window click the button that has a square with an arrow in it. A menu pops up. Select "Activate All Outputs" or something like that.

Then on your MIDI track select ezdrummer as the MIDI output.

Then open The EZDrummer mixer and at the bottom where it says output click the square that says Trk 1, a menu will pop up, select Multichannel. Now each instrument should have its own channel.

Hope that all makes sense.

I've the full version of EZD and I've got 4.5 AI in Cubase :) I'll try your tip now Tetra
 
Eureka! I have made some form of progress. now. If i 'mix' and add fx to these tracks will they act the same as audio tracks? cause I used to bounce down one by one

Hell if i could mix like this it might even be better :)
 
Yeah, I don't think you need to bounce them to audio. I never do that. Just treat them like audio tracks, eq'ing, compression, etc.

If you find that too many plugs on your drum tracks are slowing down the computer, you can also 'freeze' a track and that will render each individual track to an audio file. Then you can remove the plugs to free up some cpu resources.
 
Well I can't freeze tracks (AI is a C**T like that) and if my CPU handles it I'll work it that way :) Us poor 19 year old's cant afford the best in computer software :P

Click to expand...

I'm 40-something and can't afford the best in computer software.... :(

I've got a dual core with 4gig and it has no problems adding in numerous plugs. The most tracks I usually have is around 16 or so. I never even saw a ptoblem when i had a Pentium 4. You should be fine.
 
Yeah EZ drummer isn't that big of a CPU or RAM hog so you should be fine.
