I author on Mac as well. I believe the Mac version of the RBN plugins doesn’t support pro drums. You’ll just have to eyeball it from the pro drum makers on the PART DRUMS midi unfortunately.

–Sorry to revive this old/dead topic–

Just curious, do we know *why* the Pro Drums/Keys don’t work on the Mac side? All of the textures for them are there in the plugins folder, so I would assume they either were supported or planned to be supported at one point, unless HMX was just lazy when they were bundling up the installation files for Mac and left them in for no reason…

Mainly I’m asking because as part of my debacle of figuring out the RDP Audio issue yesterday (which I posted another thread about), I got REAPER set up on the Mac side and frankly so far it seems like an overall better experience. I couldn’t remember why I hadn’t stuck with it before when I first started authoring and then I noticed the Pro Drums weren’t registering and that was it.

At this point I’m experienced enough with authoring that I could probably do without and be just fine, but since I put all the effort into setting up on Windows I figure if I can’t get Pro Drums working on the Mac side, I’ll probably just stick with that…

Anyway, like I said I’m mostly just curious if anybody smarter than I am knows why Pro Drums/Keys don’t show up as options in the RBN Preview on the Mac side. Would be really cool if we could get that fixed. I have at least 1 friend who I know it would probably help get into the authoring world. ” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_smile.gif” />

Hmm… Okay, that’s fair I guess. Too bad. I wish I knew more about that type of thing so I could port it over, since obviously all of the assets exist. I just wouldn’t know where to even start unfortunately. ” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_frown.gif” />
