Was frustrated with drum machines and MIDI typing so I got it when it first came out, thinking I'd get the hang of it and then upgrade to something more upscale like Superior or Slate. Well worth the download.ДЄnother +1 for EZD. One last thing, there is an open source script for it that adds tons of cool functionality, it is called Launchpad 95. To that end, if you do consider this option DO NOT buy the Launchpad Mini as it does NOT have velocity sensitive pads. Again, with the velocity sensitive pads it captures all the nuances of louder/softer just as you play it. Once I have the bass and snare I'll later on the hi-hats or ride cymbals. With MIDI you can layer multiple passes each time and undo or correct any mistakes. Then on the drum track for the first pass just worry about the bass and the snare. Then go back and put something more interesting guitar-wise on another track. One of the cool things is the pads are velocity sensitive so as you hit them harder or softer it grabs that too.ДЇirst record a basic guitar chords part for four measures. It also has a note mode for playing keyboard parts with various scale modes.ДЄnd finally it has a very nice drum mode. The Launchpad acts as a DAW controller, letting you records tracks and adjust mixer settings, etc.

If you buy the Launchpad it comes with Ableton plus a bunch of other cool VSTs. I've been using Ableton Lite and a Launchpad X for recording and creating drum parts. you will learn a lot about rhythm and syncopation if you actually learn to program drums from scratch.

if you want the easy button - ezdrummer is pretty great at allowing you to just plop down drum tracks. Have learned a lot doing that.ДЄll this said. I freq go on youtube and look for drum lessons and listen and try to either play it on my drum pads or program it into the daw editor.

Just programmed in a number of these beats to staff/piano-roll and learned a lot. _&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIz6DJxfHh7QIVph-tBh2EuAHREAQYBCABEgK0FvD_BwE There are a number of books that I read when I was maybe 20 that def helped me learn about it. It's a whole art form/instrument by itself to write convincing drum patterns on the staff/piano-roll. then if you start altering the loop you'll learn about what sounds right where. but you'll get a sense for what actual drum parts look like if you import these and look at them on the staff or piano roll. Midi loops - you not only will get lots of stuff you can use here. great for recording patterns and then sending them to the pc. the quantize in them is hard to emulate on a pc. I have a drum pad controller and that certainly gives a more 'drum like' feel given the pad organization.
