Another quick Cubase question...
Question: I finally figured out how to work EZDrums on it and it sounds fantastic, crazy what these programs can do. Now, I was wondering if there's a way to change tempos for different section within a track? I'm sure there is, b/c many songs have tempo changes and it only seems natural to include the ability to do that in a recording program, but I can't figure it out...Can anyone give me some quick instructions as to how to do it? For now I can only change the tempo for the whole track, and I want to be able to assign different tempos for different sections... Answer: I believe you can program it in the drum editor thing. It's in the section where you assign velocity. Just use the help file to find out exactly how. Answer: I believe you can program it in the drum editor thing. It's in the section where you assign velocity. Just use the help file to find out exactly how. So within the track itself (without opening the drum editor) there's no way to do it? For example, if I was just recording guitar parts and not using the drums application? Would I not be able to assign different parts to have different tempos from others?

I haven't figured out how to get it to work :cry: Answer: I don't use Cubase, but in Reaper you right click above the track area and click to insert a tempo/time signature change and you can do it there right above the tracks... it inserts a little marker for you up at the top at the exact time you want, and you can do it as many times as you want. I imagine something similar is in Cubase... EDIT: Actually, if you import a midi file that has multiple tempo changes in it, Reaper will prompt you asking if you want to use them or not and if you click yes, it will place the tempo changes first. If Cubase does something similar, that might be an easy way to find where the tempo markers are and how to use them. Answer: You use "Tempo Track" to change the tempo. Ctrl-T or "Tempo Track" under the Project drop down menu. You can draw the new tempo or insert it in the form at the top. With the draw you can even do gradual tempo increases or decreases. Tempo Track is also where you can change time signatures. EDIT: Sorry I guess you're asking how to make different tracks have different tempos. Of course I have no fucking idea why you'd want to do that as I think that would be a clusterfuck...but...good luck on that. I can see having different tracks having different time signatures as I've actually seen that in real music (though rare)...but different tempos? Answer: I haven't figured out how to get it to work :cry: Are you serious or making fun? Cuz if you're serious I'll tell you how Answer: You use "Tempo Track" to change the tempo.

Tempo Track is also where you can change time signatures. Yeah, Reaper has something similar to that where you set the tempo to gradually transition from one marker to another. Pretty cool, although I would almost never use it. Answer: Awesome! Thanks see my edit above...I think I misunderstood your question. EDIT...god I'm an idiot...forget it...yes I answered your question. Answer: I seriously don't know. :cry: It's the same with any DAW really. Find or make a folder you want to use for your VSTs/VSTi's and copy the .dll files included with EZdrummer into the folder... or if it asks you during the install, just point to that folder. Then after installed open up Cubase or whatever and go to the options and plugins tab and set your VST folder so it scan then. Then you might have to close and reopen Cubase, but it should be loaded then. Then you just open a track and go to insert FX on it and a menu should come up showing all the VSTs/VSTi's you have and click EZdrummer. Answer: It's the same with any DAW really.

Thanks man :thu: Its open and loading, we'll see how it goes :idk: Answer: Okay sorry to threadjack you OP but I opened the thing that sets it up as a multi out or whatever so I have all the midi tracks open and theres one called ezdrummer and the rest under it are snare, toms etc and I got the ones under it to set ezdrummer as the effect and I opened up the ezdrummer workstation part, but how do I get it to sequence in the track? For example, how do I write out a beat, or where do I drag the pre-made beats so that they will play in sonar? Answer: To write out a beat, I'm assuming you want to program your own grooves. Open the drum editor and work from there. Create a midi track, use the pencil tool to create a midi object in that track and double click it to enter the drum editor, then start mouse clicking in the hits wherever you want them. (I hope this makes sense, I'm a bit whacked atm..) To drag existing grooves from the groove library, first open the library, select the particular groove you want and just drag it into the midi track window. Answer: Nvm I figured it out I was writing it out but no sound was coming, but I switched the drum map to number 2 and now it works :idk: Answer: Ok i'm not sure how that would work but if you're getting results that's great :) What are you drinking tonight?
