Hi everyone!
First post here, so here's a short introduction: I'm Carsten, a Dutch arranger/composer. I mainly arrange strings for pop bands and artists and for many years have been using Sonar and various VSL libraries to do mockups (although there are many times the mockups end up on the final production, when studio budgets are low). If you're
curious...
Anyway: I'm using drum maps to switch articulations (as described by
Del Engen). It works fine but creating new drum maps is a pain, and having to select 2 tracks every time to edit a part stil feels odd.
Basically, 2 questions:
- Has the interface of the drum map editor been improved?
- Does X2 have at least one feature that might make my workflow easier? For instance, is it possible to link 2 tracks (the drum map track + the part track), so that by selecting one midi track, another is opened as well? Or any other new feature that makes life easier for those with large libraries with lots of articulations?
Kind regards,
Carsten
