Hi,
Do you use hydrogen or midi to make drum parts for your songs?
Are there nice drum hydrogen files available? where?
Are there nice drum midi files available? Where?
I'm looking for a howto to make nice drum parts in midi
(rosegarden) and/ or
hydrogen. Is there a good tutorial on the internet somewhere?
Thanks in advance,
Dirk
------------------------------
This is my work flow for the drum parts:
I export to midi file the hydrogen song. Then I merge it in Rosegarden
and have it as a single midi track.
I write the drum parts in Hydrogen because as a sequencer is much more
user-friendly than Rosegarden. But then I use the more flexible midi
file in Rosegarden where I can change the tempo for different parts.
Then, if you like the chosen drumkit in Hydrogen you can use it as a
synthesizer as the playback midi device. Or else you can use qsynth or
Linuxsampler to play the midi song, but in this case you may have to
rearrange the list of instruments in the pattern editor of Hydrogen
which is very easy anyway.
A few minuts old:
http://rosegarden.sourceforge.net/tutorial/supplemental/hydrogen/
a tutorial for using Rosegarden with Hydrogen by D. Michael McIntyre.

As for me, I use Muse or Rosegarden --> Hydrogen.
I have made a drumkit from Timidity's mapping in two parts because there
only!!! (ah! only!) 32 tracks in Hydrogen.
I'm not complaining about -not at all- but i'll hope as well 48 tracks.
(Too much!)
I numbered the tracks in Hydrogen, understanding to begin number one for
both b0 (Acoustic Bass Drum) and c1
(Bass Drum 1). The second part begins from Low Agogo, hence a second
drumkit.
That is the drawback for this method.
I have made a .wav repertory from Timidity's pat, improved the volume
samples for a few of it with
Rezound, ans so I can easily work and record the drums with Midi then
Ardour.
I choose this way because i'm thinking it's difficult to make a
homogeneous drumkit.
Of course it isn't the top level, but for me the reverb effects and the
other ones inside the samples are the worst thing.
My 2 cents.
