Setting up DC IN Drambo, using Drambo’ s sequencer to trigger the track. So far so good, except how do you trigger these pads? The others are notes and work, but...H0, H1 H4? Thanks.
EDIT: I realize I can use note alternatives for each pad, but I’m looking for something within 2 ocvtaves
You can adjust what notes play what pads. Press on the rainbow button with the down arrow, then you can move around the colors on the piano however you’d like.
Mapping zone. Thanks.
One last question...well maybe...actually probably not, but here goes: I’ve re-mapped the pads in Drambo, for the sake of simplicity, chromatically from C0 to G0. I then use the Keys mode to set each of the 8 track pads in Drambo to match the mapping. Works great. One pad for each DC track. Save, quit, watch an episode of Ozark, get extremely depressed, turn it off, open up the project in Drambo. All the pads are back to triggering the same note/DC pad—C2. Apparently, the pads will always default to C2. Is that correct? If so—[sigh]—is there a module in Drambo that will can insert in each track that will take in C2 and output the desired note in DM—eg., track one will translate that C2 and send C0; track two will take that same C2 and send C#0; etc? [tried MIDI Filter, but it filters out the note, doesn’t translate it.]
I realize this DC question has evolved to a Drambo question but don’t they all?
Thanks.
Here’s a snap,of the Drambo/DC setup if it helps illustrate the issue. [just realized the arrows are pointing in the wrong direction but you get the idea.]
I literally just ran into this same problem today when I was trying to make a piano roll type thing for Aum. I’m not entirely sure where to put it in your setup, but try putting a transpose in between the track you’re sending a note from and the destination, and then manually transpose each to the correct note you need.
Yes,indeed. That does the trick. Thanks for the lead @itsaghost .
Yeah np!
I have a 2018 9.7in, which is obviously a top of the line piece of technology... and while I know that Drumcomptuer uses a lot of processing power, I feel like it freezes or crashes more than it should. The main issue I've noticed is that I'll be working on making a sound, I'll have the sequence playing as I tweak, and then all of the sudden, it stops visually responding. I can still (usually) start and stop the sequence, but any changes that are made aren't reflected graphically. Sometimes I can still tweak parameters, other times I cannot. I usually have all background apps closed when working on music stuff, too. Any ideas besides buying a new iPad?
Try disabling Animate WT Draw?
For more control, especially when modulating wavetable position, the waveform in the Wavetable OSC can be updated in real-time. However, it comes at a cost. If you are short of CPU power, you should deactivate this option.
Are you running standalone or in a AU host? Which host?
I'll disable that and see what's up. Happens both standalone and hosted in AUM. Thanks!
how do you deactivate it i can’t find the setting
Reinstalling helped a lot of these issues for me...
thank ya!
Looks like you guys found a solution, but here’s another one, in just in case. I wrote this before I realized @zilld2017 got it haha. Transpose is definitely more elegant, but if you accidentally hit a new key on the track, it would transpose from last key pressed. The following method essentially disconnects the keyboard.
If you want each pad to output 1 specific note #, you can use the PITCH module. You are correct that the pads default to C2 each time you open Drambo. After that’s, the pads will then default to the last note played.
To bypass this, add a GRAPHIC SHAPER to your track. It doesn’t need an input, so disconnect it from anything coming before it. Turn snapping for X and Y on, and set it horizontally, directly down the middle. This value is C2, which we will detune with the PITCH module.
Add a PITCH module after the graphic shaper. Connect PITCH module’s input to the graphic shaper. You don’t need to detune yet, let’s add the rest of the modules.
Add a MIDI NOTE GEN after the PITCH module. Connect GATE and VELOCITY inputs to the MIDI TO CV module at the tracks head. Connect pitch input to PITCH module.
Add MIDI OUTPUT. And add MIDI MONITOR connected to them Midi Note Gen.
Now you can press the pads on your track, and use the pitch module to detune/remap the CV coming from the graphic shaper to the correct midi note. You can see the precise midi note with the midi monitor.
It’s easier than my explanation. There’s only about 5 modules involved. Copy/paste to each track, so you don’t have to repeat patch it again.
There’s another method using the NUMBER module, it would also be easier. Haven’t don’t the math to figure out each note yet though
wanted to edit, but accidentally quoted
Started modulating. Per kit. 4 knobs can be a source and then amount to sequencer 1-3 functions. Mod, decay, pitch but what is the mod for on the global kit page? Is that something selectable?
Is there a way to copy one drum pad sound to another pad? I like to do this with hi hats a lot to get a good closed hat then copy and paste, plus add decay, etc... to make the open hat.
@Poppadocrock See global section in manual
Load Engine Preset - Here you find the Engine Preset. This preset recalls an entire sound and is shared by all engines. So you could save a snare in Engine 1 and then load it in Engine 8.
Thank you very much, I only recently skimmed manual so probably missed it. Cheers @mojozart
Hi everyone! Does someone know if it is possible to copy/paste individual drums?
EDIT: I just find the answer right there answered in this thread 😅
Not sure, but the way i do that is to save the sound and load it in the new track
Love this drum machine. My dream is to be able to load my own samples in those tracks 🙂. And process the hell out of them
Yeah, that’s exactly what I’ve found, it’s not copy/paste but it accomplishes the goal!
Thanks!
Yeah.. I think you can save a pad
You can.. if I am not mis-understanding..
You can load them using the Sampler.. but I’m afraid it only takes really short samples.
EDIT (again): You can load them perfectly with the sampler, I just loaded a whole bird sample into it 🐦😂
Here ..
This is the most flexible and powerful iOS drum machine by far!
Wow! …wait that is the desktop version. Is there an import option on iOS too?
