Routing GetGood Drums in Cubase

I buyed the new Matt Halpern Signiture Pack and it really drives me to despair.
When I want to do it like this and I want to add channels, I can't add the pack as the Host output. It's just not there.
Then I tried it by adding channels and connecting them to the outputs and it kinda worked but after like a few channels there comes no signal trough. So I can't hear the cymbals. 😢

Find myself back here for every updated version of Kontakt. Misha doing the lords work! New GGD P5 kit is amazing.

bro, you fixed my render in place issues. Thanks!

Help me! All my outputs are coming through the kick channel.

What that means

as many times as i've used multi out in kontakt, to this day it still finds a way to randomly stop working and i have to come back here lol

My output are all saved now but i can't save it in ggd ?? HELP

Man Kontakt and Cubase is a pain in the ass

I’ve set this up perfectly however my snare bottom channel isn’t sounding, but triggering audio.. any ideas ? Thanks 😊

Thank you so much Misha for this tutorial! The only mistake I did (as a Cubase Beginner) was not to use GGD as a Rack-Instrument but as an usual one XD. And I was so desperate this didn't work haha. But thank you for all the awesome products guys!

I have Halpern drums, but when I follow your instructions and try to select them for the Soundcard/Host output, they don’t show up. I get a list of Kt.st.1 [1] - 10 and Aux 1-10.

I swear, what seems like the simplest stuff takes HOURS to figure out.

Is this the best way to route in Cubase in 2022 or is there a better way now?

How can I save the outputs names at the bottom? It keeps saying the channel number instead

When I get the step to activate the outputs, the individual tracks don't generate. However they show up in my mix console. Anybody have any advice?

Thx so much for the video!!

PLEASE HELP:

I have everything mapped using Cubase's default range for GM (C1 - C#3) , and have no audio when clicking around the Piano Roll or Drum Editor. Even if I program hits, there's no audio coming out of Cubase or Kontakt. Only when I click in Kontakt do I get audio.
I have audio in Kontakt itself so I know something is wrong.
I have 100% of the outputs ACTIVATED as well. Meaning when I click pieces of the kit on GGD in Kontakt, the faders show I'm getting output in Kontakt and Cubase properly.

Drum Map settings in Cubase are also set properly to my liking.

Anyone have this issue? ... and potentially have a fix for this? I've uninstalled Kontakt and re done outputs 3 times and managed to get this far now with my errors. Quitting and saving each time helped, but I can't seem to get past this point.

Can't get the routing proper with one kit wonder (metal). Everything stays on the first channel. I've tried everything. First time having this issue. Anyone else?

Thank youuu!! Misha!!!!!!!

So is GGD instance opened as a VSTi or a MIDI track? I'm in C11 and the track icons aren't matching up. My first output (kick) is always named weird, too. It's always something other than what I've labeled it in GGD (Invasion)...snares, toms, etc are all fine. Mildly annoying but can't tell if it's related to my first question.

Any idea? Thx!!

Cubase has to be one of the most miserable DAWs in existence. Maybe that's why they put Cuba in its name.

Thanks so much Misha! This helped me out so much <3

Kontakt 6.4 - Cubase 10.5
Thing just got even more confusing

I think an update is much greatly needed on this. I am having trouble getting things to route correctly. There is no default "Halpern" that I can choose for the host output. So, the entire output of the whole kit is stuck on the same track as my kick. If i attempt to make the first output a main out and label the second as "kick" i get either one of two things: 1 - no output at all, 2 - very quiet output that sounds like the drum is way in another room. The routing for this in cubase is way more complicated than it needs to be and introduces so many issues that need to be resolved. I can't treat my kick alone or it will affect the entire kit.

RIP, still haven't been able to get ggd to work for the past few months, switching over to sd3 now :(

My outputs do not appear on the left after I activate the outputs. WHy?

how to input bus in the mixer?
Please

FYI the Outputs tab that allows you to add channels (the very first thing you do in this video) is not visible by default in Kontakt 6. I had to go to the top right, click on the Workspace Management button, and enable Outputs.

Think I missed out on a few steps before this. I think I’ve downloaded and installed everything but kontakt isn’t showing up anywhere in my VST’s, how do I find it?

I have cubase elements 10.5 but I'm having problems regarding the "VST" folder from where you see the routed outputs..any help?

What’s the point of making additional sum (bus) tracks if you can just route the stuff internally that way, in the plugin itself? Would you really only want to apply a specific effect to just the snare top and not the bottom?

This is what I call a usefull video !

Hi misha. How to route to the GM Drum map in cubase. I try to change to GM map. But there is no sound coming out. Can you make a video on it thanks

Thanks a ton Misha!
Just one questin tho.. I can't drag the groups up to where you are draggin them.. the red bar wont turn green for some reason

In Cubase 10.5 with Modern & Massive, I don't get a seperate track for each instrument. I got all the outputs right, but I dont have a seperate track for kick, snare, hihat and so on like here in this video. So I as well can't do any groupings. I have seperate outputs in the Mixer, put I want seperate tracks for each output, how do I do that?

How does this work with Kontakt player?

I am getting no sounds in GM map !! Can anyone help me out please?

Can anybody tell me if I can route ggd invasion on garageband ios??? I will be forever grateful for any info. Thanks

What the fuck with midi notes ... ??? I can program drum with piano roll but not at all with a classical drum map ? Come on ... Is it a joke or I missed something ?

I need a "From the beginning video". from install of GGD... to playing.. because I cant get mine to show up in VST in cubase

I can't route to Snare Sum, Room Sum and Toms. I don't get the option to stereo out, since they are routed only through "Kontakt". How do I resolve this?

For anyone using Invasion and having no sound when using a custom drum map... Cause it took me painful hours to find this facepalm


Open up Invasion in Kontakt and select the information icon in the top bar where you can select the different drum kits. Go to midi channel and select omni. It was easier to spot with the Matt Halpern pack hah

What up Misha. I followed this for Invasion and it works.


Thank you Thank you Thank you ! A little time invested and it sound sooo much better than one stereo track.

i usemy kontakt player for other instruments in the same project aswel, what would happen if i loaded another instrument insidekontakt for instance strings or piano? can i route that instruments to its own channel aswel?

I'm confused as to why he's sending the kick, snare, and hats tracks out to stereo channels an not mono. Any help is appreciated!

Is it ordinary rule to make all multi-track into stereos? I don't know about drum mixing well, but when i export drum tracks, i used to select Mono option.
Should I use a stereo for routing and a mono for export?

Can you please make it easier after this.

With the Modern & Massive pack I do not have the option to route the china, splash, and crash cymbals as separate channels. Am I missing something?

Thanks Misha! \m/

is making a standalone VSTi just super difficult? I'm finding that Kontakt is making my penis soft.

i clicked it on the cubase drum map but no sound. how do i fix it?:(
