I only want to use their internal sequencer if I can ship it out multi-tracks and thankfully this can be done, but you'll have to figure it out. Issues with ease of use with external midi. This is a deal breaker if I can't resolve it. That's why you gotta be able to send out something absolutely dry and SD3 seems incapable of totally dry. I can't believe they wouldn't record all these shells in a dead room to go along with the supposed billion dollar room, and I really question that it was that great. I turned off the snare bottom on the kick sound, and it reduced it a lot, but the room hall tail was still there on the kick mics. In terms of sound control and playability, it's fantastic.Slight ghost reverbs on everything that may or may not be removeable. The one limitation is is doesn't allow you to map pad assignments in the software, but you can accomplish that in the module. It does, in fact, operate both in stand-alone mode, or with a DAW/Host. If you want a simpler, perhaps even more robust solution for live playing, (which I use) you should consider ToonTrack EZDrummer2.

In that case all you need is your Mac, a USB/MIDI cable (printer cable) and your module - and of course SD2 and SOLO. To address your other question, if you have a Mac, the CoreAudio function of OSX allows you to use the TD-11 as your audio device, which is a huge plus.


Toontrack offers "SOLO" which is a simple application that hosts SD2 and it's free: If I purchase superior drummer 2.0 - can I simply connect the TD-11 to my laptop via USB and run Superior Drummer as stand alone software? I'm only interested in using the setup for playing, not recording - so I'd like to avoid purchasing any additional software (like Pro Tools) if possible.Īctually, you do not need to purchase a separate, fancy host. I have begun piecing together my first ekit: This is my first post - just dove into the ekit universe!
