Recording V-Drums
Is there any way to record the different midi notes to separate tracks when recording V-Drums in Reaper? In Sonar, I can run a script to break them all out to different tracks but it's after recording them. It would be very cool to save the step in my workflow.
Thanks!

Well you could but it would be quite messy; and you would have to know what the notes were first.
In Reaper, you can explode the recorded MIDI too:
-- right-click > Item processing > Explode MIDI item by note row (pitch)
You could assign a keyboard shortcut to that Action too.

Thanks, DarkStar. I'll try that out.

Hi,
- set up as many tracks as you need, all recording from the same MIDI source,
- insert a 'JS:MIDI/midi_note_filter' in each track and set it to the note you like to record
- set the tracks to 'Record: output(MIDI)'
It is probably a good idea to save these tracks as track template, so you have to do the setup only once.
(Select tracks, rightclick track panel -> 'Save selected track as track template...'.)

That sounds good, Blechi. I might set it up to just record the drums without cymbals as I'd replace them anyway with real cymbal samples.

That's what I meant by "messy" (no offence intended) but it would certainly do the job.

Did some 'sperimentin' yesterday. Seems it's better to record it all onto one track then break it out like you suggested DarkStar. That way, I can quantize it, explode it then render to audio tracks.

Not sure. I'll have to check into that.

Nope, MIDI channels are global for each part (drums, percussion, bass, melody, backing 1 & 2) in the TD drum brains.

You can assign different output jacks for the different pieces. Eg. output 1 kick, 2 snare, 3 high hat, etc. However, on my td-10 brain, I wasn't able to do it without some bleed through.

Regarding the bleed: Do you have any FX (like reverb) active. These will cause the bleed.
With my TD-12 i have no bleed if the instruments are set up without FX.
Roland seems to have done a good job when designing the analog circuitry because (again on my TD-12, don't know other modules) there is no noticable crosstalk between the different outputs.

Don't know if this works for you but if your intent is to mix each drum separately on its own track, then all you need to do is keep all the midi on the original track, then route the audio output of your drum vsti to separate tracks, and mix them from there.
I do that with jamstix and it works great!
