Logic Pro X Producer Drumkits - where is the reverb? Is it using space designer?

Calling all drummers.....


I'm really impressed by these Producer Kits, and I've wanted something like this in Logic for a long time! I use a Roland pad kit to record drums, and being able to balance the kit up and eq separate channels is a dream. Cymbals need to be real though IMHO, and so I've had some success in logic 9 playing a pad kit triggering exs24, with real cymbals miced up and then sending everything to the same overhead reverb setting with eq filter and so on therefore creating a reasonable realistic 'glued together' drumkit.


However, I'm confused at the way the sample are routed in Producer kits - either that or LPX is hiding channel effects.


Drum samples are directed to a room aux, but I can't see how, and surely the aux is using space designer....but I can't see it in the mixer view. Similarly there is an overhead aux where the cymbals default to and a certain amount of each drum ( specified in drum editor ) , but I can't see how that is sounding like a room either. The channel strips show no effect plug ins....or is it all going on invisibly inside the instrument?


Again the reason I ask is because to make this set up perfect, I want to record my drum kit with the pads, and real cymbals with oh mics ( with baffles to cut down room sound ) and then send them to the overhead reverb / room setting used in the kit. But I can't see the reverb for the kit...!!

Ahhh - it did cross my mind that the ambience was part of the sample, but found it hard to believe, listening to how well it handles repeated hits. And that's why it taxes the system so much...seeing as it needs all those samples loaded. Cheers.

You may like to check out the Producer + kits and Drum Kit Designer: with the + kits you can choose from 2 different room mics, or disable them altogether.
