Tedious drums

[Placid casual]

Inputting drums into PT express is a pain in the arse!!! I don't think it supports a midi controller.....

So -

I have a Roland TD9 kit

But I'd buy a programme like BDT3 or EZ drummer so I could get a more quantised finish than I would playing 'live'.

Are these programmes compatible with PT express?

Can you programme original beats with them or do you have to use the presets?

Truthfully, PT Express is designed to tease you and not much more. Buy the full version and things open up dramatically(personally, I wish Avid never offered those silly versions, unless they called the Pro Tools Free). (a few days later) guess what? Avid announces Pro Tools[ First....for free.....

But seriously, neither allows you to use 3rd party plugins. I used a Roland TD10 kit with EZdrummer, SD2 and Addictive Drums and it worked exceedingly well. I think its just time for you to graduate to the full version.

By the way, At first, I thought "Tedious Drums" was going to be a new drum plugin that whined all the time and overplayed.......

Lol - sorry for the misleading thread title. Probably not many takers for that type of plugin!!

Yes - I guess your right. Probably time to go to full pro tools. I could use my launchkey or Roland drums then as well as plugins like BDT3.

Thanks for the reply.

We already have that, it's called "Every Amateur Metal Drummer Ever". You can't buy, but with the rental price only being a twelve pack of cheap light beer per 8 hour session, who wants to buy?
