VDL template

Dorico

Hi,

I started using the VDL template from the Dorico article here: Marching percussion template for Tapspace Virtual Drumline – Dorico

I’ve watched the YouTube video in the article and am still having issues simply inputting notes. Specifically, I can’t even enter normal RH and LH hits. I am using Dorico 5.1 and Kontakt 7. I have attached 2 screenshots of my setup. I am using a 3 octave midi keyboard however I have buttons to go down or up octaves. Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

well looks like I figured it out- I pressed the E two below middle C and then the C above middle C to activate RH hits

I believe another, more advanced template for VDL is close to being ready. You could send a message to @John_at_Steinberg for details.

There’s a newer template that Eric Kruse is creating. You can contact him by emailing krusedrums at gmail dot com.

Thank you John! I did in fact buy the template from Eric Kruse.
