He's playing a complete kit, and how he "randomly" plays the kick on the 1-beat directly affects how he "randomly" plays the snare on the 2-beat.and so on with all the pieces in the kit. However, when a real dummer plays, he's NOT playing just the snare "randomly".then just the kick "randomly".etc. Same would apply to the kick, the toms.etc. If you have a drummer hit a snare 10 times, there are going to be minor differences in all 10 hits most likely.some more, some less. They use that word to make it seem like all you need to do is press one button, and it will sound like a real drummer played the beats.but humanize just really means "randomize".the velocity, the timing, etc.Ī real drummer will certainly have random differences in how he hits each drum. Since you are eager to "humanize" drums.I assume you want them to sound like a real drummer played the drums.įirst off."humanize" isn't what it implies. You taking that as a negative critique.is how you view it. Me saying it would feel "disconnected" working that way.is just how I view it. I certainly can see how you are doing it.my point is not about the method, but rather the reasons behind it, and the validation.

If it hasn't been answered.how you break out the MIDI from SD is more to do with your DAW than SD. I thought your SD/MIDI question was already answered.so this is the broader discussion.
