brandon Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 I have tried to separate the individual drums onto their own tracks but have not been successful. I can load MT Drums with all synth outputs to stereo or mono but although there are 16 drums available and 16 tracks have been created I am only able to number them from 1 to 8. The dropdown does not include numbers 9 to 16 and i wondered why this might be and was there a way around it. Thank you in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Fogle Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Greetings, Per the MT Power Drum Kit "Help" webpage the plug-in has: Quote 8 available outputs. The MT Power Drum kit website has a Cakewalk by BandLab specific help video that demonstrates the eight outputs. Select "Help" > "Windows" > "Cakewalk by BandLab". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Mackay Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Some plug-ins seem to lie to Cakewalk about the number of outputs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I expand the strip there is no such option. Is there a likely reason for this? See screenshots below. The first is from the MT Drumkit website. The letters FX appear after the 'A' on Track 2. The second is my project. There is no FX in the expanded strip.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Mackay Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 It is the [Workspace] setting. Select Track Control Manager and you can see which selections enable/disable things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurre Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 (edited) Above the arranger track you have the time to the left and you have the "workspace" to the right. In MT website screenshot you can read "custom" instead. If you make the change of "workspace" menu to "all" you're gonna see it change to "custom" and your fx would show up.

So the plug-in likely is counting the 8 stereo outputs as 16 outputs. Edited September 25, 2020 by Jim Fogle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the top, split icon indicate a simple instrument track while the bottom keyboard icon indicates a split instrument track. A simple instrument track combines midi and audio tracks into a single track while the split instrument track keeps the two tracks separate.

A Man Called Bruce Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I downloaded MT Power Drumkit and extracted the files, but it won't open in Cakewalk by Bandlab. It doesn't appear in my virtual instruments. I've run the Plugin manager to show excluded plugins, but it's not there. Any help is appreciated.
