ok, ive reuploaded. Also, please feel free to solo over it if you want

Track

Err... I'm no expert in this, but :
1. It's MIDI drums right?? I dunno how it works but I suppose that's how it should be. Try recording the drums into audio and *maybe add a little overdrive to add warmth and increase its volume. Ample amount of reverb should help too.
2. Try varying the intensity of each hit (You using the MIDI map of Cubase right?) and *maybe recreate the ghost notes of the snare. Perhaps a soft & short delay would help?
3. The only VST drumset I've used it the one came with Computer Music magazine (they offered a few more studio-quality VST too ), which is pretty good. They have one acoustic drum set and the rest are pretty much techno/electronica-ish. If you remember my track Oriental Break, the drums are coming directly from the VST.
*Don't have the CD with me now, it's with my friend, whom I've lost contact with.

Other than that, I fjooking dig the panning you did in the beginning. The riff's ace even though it's a cover/whatever.

Ok, thanks for the feedback. I have a few questions.

1. It's MIDI drums right?? I dunno how it works but I suppose that's how it should be. Try recording the drums into audio and *maybe add a little overdrive to add warmth and increase its volume. Ample amount of reverb should help too.

OK, in understand this, but using midi drums, i tried applying effects available to the audio channels to it, but it seems to have different effects for midi altogether. Other than the way you mentioned, isnt there any other way to apply the effects directly to the midi track?

2. Try varying the intensity of each hit (You using the MIDI map of Cubase right?) and *maybe recreate the ghost notes of the snare. Perhaps a soft & short delay would help?

Ok, but this would mean that i would have to create the drums on different tracks, to isolate the snare so that I can export that as audio and add delay just to that. Is that correct? also, other than ghost notes, is there anything else that can be done?

3. The only VST drumset I've used it the one came with Computer Music magazine (they offered a few more studio-quality VST too ), which is pretty good. They have one acoustic drum set and the rest are pretty much techno/electronica-ish. If you remember my track Oriental Break, the drums are coming directly from the VST.

if you still have it in your computer, maybe you could just upload the dll file for me. Anyway, how would you rate the drum set i used for the track? its called lm-7, and is the only one available wiht the cubase installation

Thats john carpenter's genius. can you believe this guy, he writes, directs, produces his movies and composes their soundtrack. This track was from his movie, ghosts of mars. its very typical of him, simple repetative beat orientated groove but very catchy

1. Without a plug-in, I'm afraid not. Maybe some VSTi offers such function, but I'm not really sure as I have not used them.

2. Actually you don't really have to go through that much trouble lar. I've read this article Star whichs says that you could humanize ur drum tracks by adding some percussions (eg. bongos, conga & preferbly mic'ed up). Reverb is also very important & try not to make the drums stand up too much in the mix (esp the cymbals). I think if you put layers of audio track on top of it, you should be a ble to hide it.

3. The lm-7 is pretty poor imho, but it's good enough for backing tracks or electronica-type of drum beats... I think. Usually I'ill just use my soundcard's MIDI synth, doesn't make a huge difference tho.
I don't have the VST in my computer anymore, I'm trying to get it back but I've lost contact with my friend who borrowed it & Computer Music isn't popular enough to be on our bookstores .

Anyway once you've remix your track, post em up.

Really? Well this is the first time I've heard of his name I'ill check out some of his stuff. Sounds damn good.

ok, I figured out how to use the soundfont capability of my card, and downloaded some pretty good sounding drum sets, but they are huge (one is 60 megs +)

hey guys, here's the .flp file for my Fearful Solution project. depending on your Fruityloops version, you might/might not be able to play it properly.

huzai,
i really think that you're talented . if possible i really like to learn from you hands-on.

anyway i've never worked with this vsti thingy before... worth a try! hopefully can get better metal drums sound compared to what i'm using now...

thank you xnobys, just ask me what u want to know, i'll try my best to teach it..

orait dude, i'll inform u after i upload it, btw, if u want a metal drum sound, u should have Drumkit From Hell , Drumkit From Hell 2, Drumkit From Hell Superior or Imperial BFD.
if u are members in audionews.ru, u can download it there using torrent..

can't register in audionews.ru la, it says i need to be invited by a current member. u a member? i searched in google for drumkit from hell torrents and all i get are dead torrents

i am member in there but to invite user, i must upload 10gb > .. where can i upload torrent without register ?

dunno lah... seems that every torrent site requires you to register first.
i checked out the infos for DFH Superior... bloody hell it's 35 GB!!! hopefully some shop in LY sells it.

for now, i just downloaded NsKit 7 free edition (70Mb) and hope it's good enough.

how about BFD Fxpansion? is it good?

hehe, DFH Superior Contains 9 dvd.. and require 40gb for samples.. hehe.. BFD just like DFH..

guys. i've uploaded acoustic drumkit.. but to use it u need Native Instrument Battery.

Here is the link :
