which software can you create drum tracks with
Im new to protools. I got the 002 with LE7 yestarday however I dont have a good computer to run it on yet. Im just making sure I'm ready to jump into everything. I have reason and sample tank with it so hopefully these will take care of drum tracks. So yeah, the question is, what program will I need to make drum tracks in protools...and is it as difficult as I think it's going to be?

Personally, I prefer Reason's ReDrum, great flexibility, (Refills, Routing, Importing) and not a bad over all sound. ...and as a sidenote, this is only as difficult as you make it. Pro Tools DVD Reason DVD filosofem

Re: which software can you create drum tracks with
I agree, Reason's easy and the sound files are many, with good quality. It's Redrum is even good for a new user. Light something up, press play, and it will loop, making a sound each time it crosses the light. You'll see
BFD also gets noted on here as a really good program

Re: which software can you create drum tracks with
so how do you use Reason Adapted to record to a midi track (or several separate instrument midi tracks, if possible) into PT?
I've been pencilling in and using sampletank. And i have used Reason for loops, but never actually knew how to record them as midi info. thanks!

Re: which software can you create drum tracks with
You don't record/create a MIDI track with reason adapted and/or redrum. You create the MIDI track in Pro Tools, and control the instruments in Reason. You could also create a MIDI track in reason, and control the instruments. Bottom line, the software doesn't create the MIDI, you do.

Re: which software can you create drum tracks with
I have used some drum programming stuff, but I prefer to use samples I make myself (multi-velocity hits) and snap them to grid, make a quik loop, repeat, and do that for all the parts of the song (ie verse, chorus, bridge, ect..) It is a little more work, but your programming won't sound like everything else, because you are using your own samples
If I am in need of a quick groove though, I will use Redrum in Reason. Works fast, although a little stale.
