Newbie to the Td3 but playin drums for years

[drummer426]

Hello all,


My name is Anthony and I'm out of Huntington Beach, CA. I've been playing drums for about 15 years and just purchased a TD3 set due to moving into a condo. I was about to purchase the Yamaha DTXpress IV from guitar center for a good deal but was not impressed with it's features. The TD3 being a little bit more (the dtxpress iV was used) but a lot better.

Anyways, I just purchased a Presonus Audiobox USB to get some recordings on my laptop and having a ton of problems. It came with cubase 4 LE and I put my questions in the recording section ( to follow forum rules). But if any one with this experience wants to see if they can help it would be absolutely appreciated!!!


Excited to learn about the fun I can do with my new toy!

Hello and welcome !!! I bought a TD-3 a while back and for me the
easiest way I am recording is this. I take one cable into the mic jack
on my Mac G5 and just plug it into the headphone jack on the TD-3.
I have a splitter on the headphone cord so I can hear the recording.
Garage Band from Apple is what I am using to tweak the sound.Very
low tech but it works for me. I know way more about acoustic drums
than e drums. I am sure some wise people on this site can help you
with your software issues. Again welcome and take care, E
