Replace or double drum sounds in the Tracks area
Using drum replacement, you can replace individual drum sounds on an audio track without
re-recording the entire track. To replace or double the drum sounds, you use an audio track
that contains a recording of a single drum (or other percussion instrument) to create a software
instrument track with matching MIDI trigger notes. The software instrument track plays drum
samples using the EXS24 mkII.

1 Select the audio track with the drum recording.
2 Choose Track > Replace or Double Drum Track (or use the corresponding key command).
The following changes take place in the Tracks area:
•
All files on the selected audio track are analyzed for transients (if they have not been
previously analyzed). The selected track is vertically zoomed.
•
A software instrument track is created below the audio track, and the EXS24 is inserted into
the Instrument slot.
•
The Library opens with the EXS24 selected, so that you can choose the sound that best
matches the project.
•
A MIDI region containing trigger notes based on the detected transients is created on the
software instrument track.
•
The Drum Replacement/Doubling dialog opens.
