Hi all, I have a song, and at the start I'm using the 808 drumkit, but when the chorus kicks in, I want to use an analaogue kit. Is it possible to change the kit at some point in the same song? Currently, I'm considering piping the output into Ardour, then changing the kit and loading the latter hal...

Just wanted to say...thank you. That works brilliantly! (well almost, I can't hear the drums when the record button is pressed in Ardour, but I'm sure I'll work it out). The only difference to creating a midi channel with the aforementioned drums is that there's obviously no "fan out" opti...

Hydrogen can do one output per instrument. Go to Tools > Preferences and click on the Audio System tab. Tick the box create per instrument outputs . Now you can add tracks in Ardour for each drum, and join them up using the JACK patchbay, accessible through Catia if you use Cadence, or Patchage or ...

Ok then.

What a shame.

I suppose I'm really after the ease of the pattern/song building in Hydrogen with the functionality (fan out) of the drum plugin inside Ardour.

Thanks for the ideas.

So, if I were to use Drum Gizmo, wouldn't I end up in the same situation as I was with the LVI plugins (ie. pattern editing inside Ardour)?

Wow! What a great response. I think that I'll download the kits for Hydrogen and stick with that, as I know it reasonably well already. The only thing I'm not sure of, is say I want to add some reverb to the high-hat, and only the high-hat, I can't find a way to do that. I can pipe the whole drum ki...

Hi all, I've just discovered the AVL drum plugins for Ardour. Am really impressed. Great sounding drums. So I set about having a play and getting used to them, after watching the intro videos on youtube (usually I'd use Hydrogen and link it through JACK), and got some really good beats going, but fo...

You Sir, are a gentleman and a scholar!

Worked immediately (second option).

Thank you very much!

Hi all, I've been struggling with this for about an hour. I cannot for the life of me work out how to connect my midi-controller keyboard to the Calf-Organ plugin. I can see the keyboard in the Alsa tab of the jack connections and I can see the Calf-Organ in the Midi-Writable Clients tab. I cannot s...

Thanks chaps!

I will hopefully have some time this week to try what you've suggested.

I'll post back with an update either way.

Thanks again, truly appreciated.

Hi all, My laptop sadly died a few weeks ago - not quite sure why. I have a 2tb HDD and had 3 OS's installed: Mint, Ubuntu Studio and Win10. Mint was the first to go (after a year), then Ubuntu Studio, then Win10. So, I did a hardware check; everything was fine, so re-installed the latest Ubuntu Stu...

You, Sir, are a gentleman and a scholar!

Such as simple answer...works perfectly.

Thank you!

Hi all, I've recently bought a Edirol DA-2496 with 8 inputs and 8 outputs and with Ardour, Jack, etc... it works great. I'd like to record my band 'live' and have purchased a bundle of headphones and connected them to the outputs. I can't seem to find a way to increase one input volume to just one o...

Thank you....however; I'm almost too embarrassed to say what the problem was, but here goes: :oops: I had the input working but no output - still not sure about the output. My lodger came home and had picked up a new guitar amp for me that I'd bought on ebay, I took the lead from the Edirol and took...

Hi all, after a considerable hiatus, I decided to return to Ardour and computer recording in general (bought a cheap 8-track Tascam that I was using for a few years until I found it a bit restrictive). The card/edirol is recognised and at one point I could see the input meter going up and down in in...
