Need help with drums coming in on the 3rd beat

[September]

I'm recording an acoustic part in the beginning of a song that is 8 measures long and I'd like my drums to come in on beat 3 of the last measure. Is there a trick to make that happen in RWs?

very tricky since u have to be flexible with wat Instantdrummer offers. the only thing that would work right now and has worked for me is if you use Reason 3.0. Its a very sophisticated software but you'l be able to edit drum tracks as u please with Rewire. believe me its help a lot.

You can try mixing a riff down with nothing but the instant drummer on it using the mix button. Then pull it back into your song using import. When you see the riff appear it will be called bounce. If you press the info button on the riff you'll see a pictorial view of the wave file. You can click and drag the line near the top of the wave file and fade in or out, or mute sections completely. So you should get a version of what you're after that way. Hope this helps.
