Something strange - I have these midi drum tracks in the cwpa(8) track window - and different pan settings for each drum/hihat/cymbal etc. thing is ALL the drums automatically follow the last pan adjustment I made - The written settings in the track window don't change - but you can hear it plainly... so if I set the hihat, say, to 120, the kick and the snare and all the toms set themselves to 120 - so I head for the kick and set it back to 64 - and the hihat heads back to 64 too... it's like one of those mouse trails you can't shake off -

Found this all out when trying to record drums to audio - again thought I could set pan positions and record all drums to a single audio track - in the end had to record each drum to an individual audio track, then set individual volumes and pan positions - is that normal? Got a great sound like that anyway - but it took a while:)!

Cheers - Malgo.
 
Malg,

If the drums are all on one track, on channel 10, of course the panning changes for them all -- it's a single setting for the track.

You could split the drums to however many MIDI tracks (there is a CAL routine to do this), and then have individual pan and volume control... or do as you did, record them as separate audio tracks and adjsut the audio track panning and volume...

I get it - thanks. Sometimes I don't see the simple things. Malg.
 
No problem, I understand. You should've seen me trying to fix a doorknob here a few minutes ago...
