I hope I'm in the right forum for this...

I'm recording an acoustic drum kit into Samplitude V8 via a MOTU 2408 MKII.

I want to add-to/replace recorded drum sounds with samples like I hear about everyone else doing who records rock/metal drums.

What do I need to buy. triggers? software? sampler?

I have no clue. Help..please!

Don’t know about Samplitude, I process in Sound Forge. It works. Sometimes processed hits need additional editation (split, nudge) for ultimate aligns with original track. Very often original track need preparation (i.e. gate, normalization) to clean things up for better triggering.

Good collection of multi dynamic drum samples is a must have.

Great results when mixed with overs and room mics (original take).

Not so good for fast 16 or dragging on snare.
