The 230 GB is what gives you space to manoeuvre while mixing. The positions are all suitable for (extreme) surround configurations.

Toontrack's Superior Drummer 3 virtual drums now has 230 GB of material for drums alone, which is quite impressive! The 230 GB is distributed over eleven mic positions, so you end up with about 21 GB of sounds. Someone suggested I might be able to do this with a mixer, but I'm not sure exactly what the setup would be like.It's exciting to imagine what the sample libraries of the future will hold. Is there a way to play along to music with Superior Drummer using Cakewalk? The only way I found is to add audio files in SD3 and play along, but I find this quite limiting. Secondly, the one thing I miss is the ability to turn on the TD-11 and play along to music from my phone on the fly, like from Youtube or whatever. I thought that maybe my TD-11 needs to be connected to the PC via midi cable? Or are there audio settings somewhere that I need to change? I was expecting the plug-in to work exactly the same as the standalone program. In the Audio settings I use ASIO as the audio device.īut when I add an SD3 VST track in Cakewalk, my v-drums don't trigger anything. My Roland TD-11 is connected via USB to my PC, and I hear what I play through PC headphones. When I play in stand-alone SD3, everything works great. Please bear with me as I have little experience with DAWs, VSTs and recording in general. I'm having trouble getting my Roland v-drums to trigger Superior Drummer 3 in Cakewalk.
