Idea Good way to program drums using Cubase & Reason

open Cubase, open Reason, rewire them.

Make the desired drumloop with the "drum machine" in Re-drum, using the desired samples, velocity etc.
when ur done, use the "copy to track" function.. export the track as a MIDI file, import it too Cubase and choose the Redrum in Cubase, now u can edit and re-arrange the drums in Cubase instead of Reason...


for me it was a revelation, but did I really invent the wheel?

Been doing that for a while now without exporting the midi...I find Redrum's classic drum machine interface easier to use than drawing notes in the drum editor in Cubase.

that is the point u dont have to draw any notes, but how do u arrange the drums using only the drum machine..? that seems a little tricky..

It's a hell of a lot more intuivite than figuring out where to place the notes in Cubase's drum editor. For me anyways.

U dont have to place any notes in Cubase drum editor when u export the MIDI from the re-drum, when you import the MIDI-file in Cubase, all the notes will be drawed excactly and sound excactly like they did in the Drum-machine..

Well right but you said you can "edit and re-arrange the drums in Cubase instead of Reason." If you're going to use Cubase's editor, then why involve Reason at all? If you're going to use Redrum to program the notes, why bother with the MIDI export? That's what I don't get.

Redrum is one of Reasons real strengths. Wire up a Redrum to a mixer with a channel for each drum and use the send effects of the mixer to add your reverb etc. Offers loads of control and power.

Oh. I learnt something today by giving me a thought of that. Thanks to all for the 'tips' of rewire something like that.

But let's say that I'm using a Drum machine *Jomox Airbase*, do I actually need to use Drum Editor to draw the note? Because I always use piano roll or it is very versatile to use any of it? Need guidance. (sorry for off topic) Cheers

What most sequencer call "grid" sequencing, you have a particular number of steps in one measure (16/32 or 12/24), you choose a sound and put them on the "grid".

Originally invented by roland (I think :conf
tr 909, tr 808, ... all have grid recording onboard and even now, there are a lot of drumboxes that have this style of sequencing onboard.
