im having some difficulty isolating individual sounds for 32nd note rolls on toms and snares for botched recording jobs....ive never learned how to fix rolls, so ive been improvising....whats the best way to do this if each drum has its own track?
thanks
...btw i use PT LE 6.9.2 and am about to upgrade to 7

I guess you mean 16th note rolls. You cant fix it when guys play 6 or 8 notes really fast and they are just a blur. No way to make that sound better. All you can do is sample a tom, and run that mess through a triggering program and make that roll trigger the sample. You can cut up the messy roll into individual 'notes' and then adjust the volume of each hit untill it triggers the replacing program well, then run it.

....yeah i meant 16 notes i dno what was goin through my head....i took your advice and spliced them up into individual notes and crossfaded but didnt run it through drumagog because the sensitivity always gives me a problem.....a second issue im running into is that when this drummer recorded his parts the kick was off with the click but it seems that the ovearheads were somehow on..so i edited the kick but now the edited kick is clashing with the kick bleeding out of the overheads so it sounds all flammy is there anything i can do about getting the kicks out of the overheads like gate tips? this is my first time editing drums and i dont have beat detective or anything like that so im doing it manually

to get the kick outa the drums do a low pass filter at like 600 hz inthe overheads that will get rid of the low freq of the kick drum since that is were is lies mostly. that is weird how the kicks were off time with the overheads, u mustve had a clocking issue or something with your computer or w/e. but try the low pass filter, it will work fairly well.
