HI
I hope somone out there can help me.
I am using Cubase 12 Artist
I have imported live drum waves/stems that someone did for me, into a song I am working on.
I can take any of my guitar parts which I recorded on Cubase and use vari audio to make a midi track . BUT… I cannot for the life of me get Vari audio to work with the Snare wave that was recorded on another system. I want to be able to trigger EZ drummer to play a snare alongside of his.
Is there some info imbedded in his drum tracks that is preventing Vari Audio from reading it correctly? if so how do I get rid of that info?, or is there something I am missing in the Vari Audio page or Cubase itself??
I have looked online and just about everything I found either did not work or was a bit confusing!
Any help would hugely appreciated
Many thanks
 
Drum kits are untuned percussion. A timp is not. It is tuned to a specific pitch. A snare or kick produces a spread of frequencies spread over quite a range that’s why it doesn’t work. There is no pitch to read.
 
If the snare is on its own track then you should be able to use a MIDI trigger plug-in. Reaper has one built into its noise gate as well as a separate one in the JS folder. I'm certain that Cubase has something similar.
 
Good point - what we use sometimes to replace instruments. I don't know if that feature is in Artist though? Hitpoints - are the key. you set the level and then create midi notes from each hitpoint. It's in the inspector panel in Pro - but I think it should be in artist.
