2ch preset - All separate outputs have been disabled, and all sound comes out of one stereo channel in Live.

You can determine the final balance of the sounds with Live's mixer.

Post Fader preset - The internal mixer of Addictive Drums 2 is still in use, causing the presets to sound identical to the previews inside Addictive Drums 2.

This causes the native drumkit presets to sound slightly different from the previews inside Addictive Drums 2. The loudness of the channels is determined by the faders in Live alone.

Pre Fader preset - This preset disregards the internal mixer of Addictive Drums 2.

When you unfold one of the project files, three choosable presets will be revealed: als), one for users who own Max for Live, and one for the users who do not. The AD2 Suite project folder contains two project files (. From here you'll then be able to easily access the AD2 Suite project folder.

alp file somewhere in your User Library, or in one of your custom folders in Live’s Browser. The Logic Drum designer works well, for this purpose, but my projects are in Reason, not Logic.To start using AD2 Suite, unpack the. If Reason Drum Kits can't work, in this way, do you have any recommendations for what will? I've heard about Ezdrummer, for instance. Is there a way to do this? I've looked into Combinator but struck out.īefore downloading this Drum Kits trial, I had been piecing together custom kits in NN-XT, which gave me the flexibility I need, but I was hoping Drum Kits would make this whole thing easier. I need to be able to place and group them however I want. C2 (Hi tom) C#2 (crash) D2 (Hi tom) D#2 (Ride). Reason Drum Kits has a few key mappings on offer but the instruments are typically separated by default, i.e.

(*I can adjust the Scale of the note sequence but this is too imprecise too work in the case of triggering these drums.)

The Bop Pad software is limited in that it can only assign adjacent MIDI notes*, so I could program, for example, a quadrant to trigger C1, C#1, D. This works because Logic lets me assign each drum component to an individual MIDI note, i.e. This is good but there's another, even more interesting, app for Bop Pad that let's me program each quadrant's radius so I can play multiple drums in each quadrant.įor instance, in Logic's Drum Designer, I can program Quadrent 1 to have the outer radius be the edge of a ride cymbal, the middle of the radius play the middle of the ride, and the central part to trigger the ride's bell. It has a software setup that lets me control and assign four quadrants of the circular pad. I like the Bop Pad because it lets me play with sticks or hands, without the space or financial investment of a whole e-drum kit.

Hi, I'm trying to map a Kieth MacMillan Bop Pad MIDI controller to a trial version of Reason Drum Kits.
