EXS24 - Multi-channel use?

2004-02-19 by nichellyeruk

I have recently purchased the Wizoo miXtended drum kit sample CD's 
(and jolly fine they are too) but I am uncertain how best to use the 
multi-channel capabilities. At the moment they are set up to output 
the individual drum sounds through the main track channel, the 
overhead sounds through "Outputs 3-4" (routed to my Aux 1) and the 
room sounds to "Outputs 5-6" (my Aux 2). I have got 6 separate MIDI 
lines in a folder, the folder is placed on a track with the EXS24 as 
the plug-in, so I have *one* instance open.

However, what this means is that I can't separately EQ / reverb or 
whatever the kick, snare, toms or whatever. Is there any way of doing 
this other than:

(1) creating 6 separate instances of the multi-channel EXS; or

(2) editing the "instrument" such that the relevant zones are output 
to different streams (e.g. kick to 1-2, snare to 3-4, kick overhead 
to 11-12, snare overhead to 13-14 etcÂ…until I run out of outputs) ??

If I do (1) then will it matter if I send *all* of the overhead and 
room outputs to the same aux (in which case they would have a 
different EQ or whatever) (the answer to this may be "use your ears 
and find out" !)

If I do (2), how can I change / automate track volume etc (i.e. I 
suddenly want the kick louder than the snare, or vice versa??

Thanks all


Nic
