Jul 10, 2004 01:44 am in fruity, use the export function. turn yer beat into a wav file. then import the wav to cubase.
Jul 10, 2004 01:45 am but why bother? i just use it as a vsti then render it down in the final mix from cubase--it plays along.
you dont get to EQ each drum seperately that way (unless fruity has a parametric--i've never checked) but i dont care.
Jul 12, 2004 03:15 am when I make a wavefile and export it, it comes out sounding different.
I'll try the rendering down method
thanks for your help
Jul 12, 2004 03:38 am wow you have no idea how long I wasted trying to figure that out!
thanks a million!
Jul 12, 2004 02:57 pm sure. mind if i ask you how it sounded different when you tried exporting the drums as a wav? i might have to do that eventually if i ever want to EQ my individual drums separately.
unless fruity has a parametric EQ in the multieffects which i could slap on each drum. i have never checked for that...

Hope that helps you out...
Jul 13, 2004 02:39 pm it does, deeps. thank you. one question though: if you're using the waves stuff, those are VST plugins right? but fruity doesnt support external plugins i thought. so you must be exporting each percussion element as its own track and then EQing?

The powerful thing about fruity, it does allow VST plugins! Dx plugins as well...You have to go to the options tab to select where all of your vst plugins reside and you may use your VST plugins after that for the individual or master tracks...
Let me know once you give it a go...
Jul 15, 2004 12:48 pm wsow shows you how much i've looked into that aspect of it. never read the literature, just started sequencing. thanks for the tip!

I know plenty of producers in the UK who have won awards that use fruity religiously even after having a korg, they export the soundback into fruity and use it for sequencing/creating beats. It's a very powerful program because of the VST plugin capability.
