Recording Electronic Drums using the Drum Brain Sounds (Roland V Drums) in Logic Pro X

There are several videos on how to record electric drums which result in a midi track that only allows you to select drum sounds from Logic. This tutorial shows you how to record them with the drum sounds from the electric drum set's brain.

Casey, I have the Roland TD-11 and adding an External MIDI track to a project does record the sounds of the TD-11 brain as MIDI notes (as it did for your TD-50 here). Your TD-50 MIDI notes have a "chorus-like" sounds because you need to set your TD-50's MIDI's Local Control to OFF. This is when you'll get a clean version of the brain's sound onto Logic.
What I am looking to do now is configure Logic so that each sound from each pad is recorded to a separate track so I can EQ/audio fx them separately.

Thanks. Very useful given the v drum mapping for the drum kit designer in logic is crap.

This is super helpful thank you!

Convoluted tutorial ... thanks for giving it a shot though.

It's not letting me convert my midi to audio...any idea why that might be happening?

[@nicholaskersteman2698]

Seriously... Same here. Guy doesn't take the tutorial all the way. What good is this information if I need to carry a 2 thousand dollar drum brain around any time I want to work on a project.

You probably figured this out by now but for anyone else in the same position.. I think the only way is to record the midi to an audio track in realtime. Set the output of the external midi track to a bus, and the input of the audio track you want to record to the same bus, then record the midi to the audio track.
