Hello !
Long time no news... I have some good news... about the DRUM MIXER
The DRUM MIXER is something useful to tune the drum sounds of the styles. The DRUM MIXER was already there, but it is improved in the new version.
I had to sit down and do many changes after John signaled me some problems with the drum mixers, vArranger and Ketron SD2, so I had to test a lot of things, and try to do something simple to use, even if it is complex inside ....
But... few things need to be explained here :
There is 2 kinds of drum mixers.
1) The original vArranger drum mixer with the 10 drum mixers groups (Kick, Snare ...) (Drum Mixer per Group in the bottom part)
This is a feature that is only found on the KETRON SD2 !
Even the Ketron SD1000 does not react to the same messages as the SD2
I just sent a message to Ketron, to see if they can add it to the SD1000.
vArranger loads the drum mixer per group of the Ketron styles.
I have discovered that this drum mixer is general for all drumkits on all channels. (Before I was saving and loading it 2 times for Drums 1 and Drums 2 tracks)
2) The newly added vArranger drum mixer when you can set the level, reverb, pan etc.... of every individual notes of the drum kit (Drum Mixer per Note in the upper part)
You can now use it for the Ketron SD2, Ketron SD1000, and the vArranger Software Synthesizer
Most of Yamaha styles includes some individual drum mixer tuning and are displayed in red, so you can easily see what changes has been done with the style loading
The good news is that you can now SAVE DRUM MIXER INDIVIDUAL NOTES with the style too
Now, for SD2 users, there is something very important to know : If one drum note has been changed from the default value (127 for volumes, 64 for other controls) then the drum mixer per group will have no more effect on this note ! The individual values will ' override ' the per group values.
So you need to modify the per note values to your taste, or you can set the note to the default value (127 or 64), and then use the drum mixer per group.
ps : some bad news for SD1000 users. The SD1000 has a round robin feature for drums, so from time to time the trigger another sample for the same key. I have noticed that the drum mixer you set on the key, only affect one of the round robin notes, and not all of them. I have signaled this bug to Ketron too.
