Hi, my name is Sue and last February, I got a Korg Trinity Workstation and I really haven't had too much time to get into the ins and outs of it (I had absolutely no experience with this kind of thing before I bought it...).



Anyway, we basically use the Trinity to play sequenced songs while we play live. My problem at the moment is my drummer being able to hear the click track that I'm sending him. Right now, I'm sending him a track that I've put a 1-2-3-4 drum pattern as part of the song. I'm sending that track to the right output (while everything else is running mono through the left) to a headphone amp, and through the headphone amp to his ears. But he's still losing everything when the guitars are playing.



I know I'm not doing this the right way. I've got the volume all the way up, the output all the way up, the headphone amp all the way up and the velocity as hard as it can hit. I haven't dug around in the GLOBAL mode at all, except for transposing some stuff and using an external time clock in the studio. Any suggestions you could give me would be very much appreciated.



Thanks in advance,
Sue

Sue,
TRy sending the drummer a track with a higher pitched sound, like a woodblock or something that will cut thru the mix. By the way - your guitars are TOO loud - I'm sure of it. They ALWAYS are. Make your guitar players face their amps back at THEM, and see if that helps contain the volume. That way it'll hurt their ears first, before the crowd goes deaf!
