Exporting MIDI Drums as Separate Audio Tracks


Culljosh

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I'm about to send some recordings off to be mixed and was wondering if there's an easier way to individualize a piano roll of midi drums?

Basically, my electronic drum kit notes are on one piano roll, and I see where you can separate notes by the pitch but I'm aiming to convert to dry audio files for mixes?

Any helps would be much appreciated!

If you are using a drum sound source that doesn't have multiple outputs, then you'll have to soloe each drum one at a time and bounce that one drum part to an audio file, until you have individual audio files of each drum part.

 

(Now you can see why individual outputs are a good feature..!)

you could use the command to split midi file by notes, each note will have it's own tracks. But sometimes a chore when you use a drum module - Superior Drums (and many others that different articulations on different midi notes. Ideally you would want all kicks on one track etc. I generally take my drum MIDI track, make a back-up copy. Mute all notes except kid which might be 2 or 3 different notes. I offline mix that down, then delete it, go thru each drum like that. I Might open a 2nd instance of same drum track, so I can quickly find all the cymbals, or hats etc. rather then mess with the track I am bouncing out the separate drums
