Can't see why anyone would use a drum rack? Enlighten me please! Posted on: 07.11.2013 by Bernard Pulizzi Hello all..I have been looking at buying Battery 4 for my beat programming, except I can't see the benefit of drum racks as a whole.. I never use the Ableton drum rack, instead opting to write each section of the beat in on the arrangement view - this is basically the same, except now the beat is split, allowing more control over which sections of the beat begin and/or fall out. I would ideally like Battery because it looks very intuitive, and has a huge library of samples, but without this freedom I can't see myself making much use of it.. unless drum racks have a good feature to separate the different hits (aside from the splitting which takes a long time and leaves my project very messy - which then takes time from being creative to reorganise)? Thanks for any help and enlightenment you can offer! | |

| Monserrate Rupnow 07.11.2013 | You can output up to 16 channels out of Battery if I remember right, and feed it midi on seperate tracks too. So it could work very close to the way you do now it sounds like. |
