I used to use jamstix and would recommend it - using the automatic functions it has. I would record quite a few passes and mix the jamstix sounds with other sampled sounds in Kontakt. Here is an example which is all Jamstix triggering percussion - other than guitar and bass - but all i've done is pick the best bits from a number of passes and sent them to Kontakt to playt he sounds I wanted - the groove is all jamstix. Unfortunately the main percussion really gets going after about 1:50, but I think gives a nice idea of the sort of groove you can get with jamstix after that.

Drums in Arturia Spark (electronic) and Jamstix (percussion)'. HOW TO SUPPORT MATRIXSYNTH. Original protective plastic over serial number. Please refer to pictures for specific item condition. I think the AD4096 is killer on drums. You can get a really loose spring-reverb-like tone.

The best way is to not write music that requires instruments you don't know how to compose parts for. Don't agree --- too negative. If you have little money and want to get going, I suggest you get GTG drums(google it). With added EQ and/or verb they sound great and you can add beats by just playing the notes into your track from your midi keyboard/controller. If you know hardly anything about drum samplers and programming this is an excellent way to get going.

Be positive --- you can do it --- it might take awhile. Then later you can switch to a programme like EZ Drummer, Jamstix etc. What is the best way to get drums on a tracks for someone that doesn't know much about drums? Is there an automated drum software that I can program and mix into Reaper? Rut I am a drummer FWIW.

My advice is: - Don't bother with anything that gives you 10,000 patterns. Programming your own is not difficult. - Use a drum machine or sampled drum kit with plenty of velocity layers for the most natural sound - Read some basic tutorials on how to play drums to learn some common patterns. Radikal Guru Strong Dub Rar File. - Stick to variations on one or two beats in a given song to keep a consistent feel - Play stuff in with a MIDI keyboard to get some life into it - Don't quantize stuff too hard - Remember you've only got two arms and legs!

- Less is more. Yeah Rut.there's several good ways to get good drums. No.you do not want to program your drums. That's just a waste of time.

You want a grove that's already complete. You want to be able to compare different groves or beats until it sounds close to what you want. I used Drums on Demand for the last couple of years. Just listen to the samples they have.

All you have to know is where to throw in a fill and such. I've just switched to Easy Drummer, because I found a killer deal on it. It's still going on I believe. I think it's better then Drums on Demand, and also easy as can be.

That's easy drummer.but, if you buy, don't buy it from this link, because there are some deals out there that cost half of this. I just liked this picture. +1 for Kearley and Doughboy.

I love EZ Drummer. Easy to use, no heavy learning curve, and it's a good product (IMHO).

I got so accustomed to it that I just got Superior Drummer 2.0. I look forward to learning more about making those drums sound even better. FWIW, there really isn't a substitute for real drums.

EZ Drummer has worked well for me, and I'd suggest giving it a try for sure. Oh, and Doughboy is right. I tend to get my Toontrack stuff from www.audiomidi.com when they're running specials on Toontrack software.

You still end up downloading the software from Toontrack.com, and you still register your software with Toontrack.but it's often 40%-60% cheaper. +1 for Kearley and Doughboy. I love EZ Drummer.

I've only had EZ drummer for a few months.(and haven't been working on much.) But.I have two songs finished with it. I just can't figure out the upgrading to Superior deal. I know there's little tweaking things.but.Geeeez, I just don't see where it could sound much better. Do people such as you and everyone else, just get bored and want a little change. Such as me and Drums on Demand.I always liked DOD.just time to move on I guess.

Subject: Guitar for the non-guitarist? Hi guys, I really don't know anything about guitars, but I want to write a song with guitars in it. Is there any automated guitar software that I can just plug into Reaper? Subject: Mixing for non-mixers? Hey guys, I have no clue how to mix! Is there some kind of automated software that will mix my song for me?

Subject: Vocals for non-vocalists? Hey folks, I don't know anything about how to write a vocal melody and lyrics. Is there any software that will do that for me? If it could perform it too, that would be great! The response to any of these is going to be 'find someone to collaborate with.'

Yet somehow, it's acceptable for drums. The response to any of these is going to be 'find someone to collaborate with.'

Yet somehow, it's acceptable for drums. Doesn't band in a box automate guitar etc - and I think you can get vocal automation software as well. The response to any of these is going to be 'find someone to collaborate with.' Yet somehow, it's acceptable for drums.

You make a valid point. IMV, collaboration is an answer to LOTS of questions asked in these kind of forums, even questions that aren't as bluntly worded as your examples. But really, there ARE differences. It doesn't slight the importance of drumming, or drummers, to say that for many kinds of music production, drums operate at such a foundational level that the drum function can be effectively 'automated' or 'constructed' to adequately serve timing and tempo purposes, as well as helping to define song structure.

I tried to word that carefully, so cut me a little slack. I'm NOT saying that anyone who can afford drum software can themselves fill in for a 'real drummer.' But getting appropriately functional drums isn't always so difficult that NOT having a drummer as collaborator (as well as the ability to record and mix 'real' drums) should be a stumbling block to making music.

Context is key. I'm not a drummer, but not relevant's advice in post #9 makes sense to me. There are at least four routes you can take: Hire a drummer. Cut and paste together a drum track with Acid-compatible loops. Cut and paste together a drum track with MIDI loops.

Generate MIDI drums using software. Generate MIDI drums manually.Which route you take depends on your budget, the amount of work you want to do, what style you want, and how customized you want your drum tracks.

The problem with being a newbie is that you often don't know where to start, and most of these options leave you with too many choices to make. I'm a big fan of Band in a Box (a sort of 'canned accompaniment' program. Type in chords, pick a style, and it'll generate a 'generic' accompaniment (bass, drum keyboard, etc.). Initially BIAB was a MIDI only product, and the output had a fairly high 'cheese' level. A couple of years ago they added RealDrums (which are basically Acid-style loops, only automatically put together by BIAB. They've also got RealTracks (which are digitally sampled instruments that can be used instead of MIDI. For ease of use, it really can't be beat.

Have a listen to some demos (- some of the stuff is amazing. If you're only interested in the drums, instead of BIAB, you could use PowerTracks (which only supports the RealDrums. The RealDrums sell for $29 a set, PG Music prices stuff to encourage you to buy the full package. For example, the 'PowerTracks MultiPAK' set gets you all 29 different styles for $179. Again, listening to the demos will tell you if this route would work for you. They've got a 30 day return with no questions asked policy, which is really great.

I actually decided to purchase the ezdrummer package from audiomidi.com. Only problem is I choose the electronic version, paid for it via paypal, but never received a download link or serial number.

Sent them an email but have gotten no response yet. Hope I didn't just wast $89. It takes a couple of days. I've bought a few from them. Seems kind of silly, the biggest reason you'd want the electronic version is for the instant gratification.

Then.you have to wait for the email from them. It'll come though.

I've started to use EZDrummer, also with DfH. Disappointed, so I tried Superior Drummer. More capabilities, but the sound was almost the same. I hate kick and snare samples, they are not for me. I tried Addictive Drums, but they sound to plastic and chaotic for me. Then I had a dilemma, SD + Metal Foundry, or Steven Slate Drums.

And I've chosen the latter and for the first time I got perfect drum sound. I am probably the only one here using Steven Slate, but for me they are the best.

I am also not a drummer, but it is not hard to write good drum tracks. Try it, and you'll find that it is much easier that it seams. .Then I had a dilemma, SD + Metal Foundry, or Steven Slate Drums.

MF had a good deal on the Steven Slate EX and I ordered it, I should have my copy by the end of the week, or early next week.

I do like some EzD DFH but I like having lotsa drum options.:) Have you created some kind of template to use it in Reaper? I would like to check it out if you have done so. Not for long Sergenious!

I do like some EzD DFH but I like having lotsa drum options.:) Have you created some kind of template to use it in Reaper? I would like to check it out if you have done so. It looks like MF still has this kit on for $79 and the same one plus two expansion packs for $99. I'm definitely interested but would like the direct download option. At Steven Slate's own site where direct download is available these products cost considerably more right now.

Thanks for the heads up. Have you created some kind of template to use it in Reaper? I would like to check it out if you have done so. Yes, I have a template, but I am not sure if it would be useful to you as I am processing the drums a lot (compressor, eq, Waves RBass, transient). You can check one of my songs made with SSD in Music Colab forum here, 'Epic melodic black metal song'. Will send you template by PM.

I've bought Steven Slate half year ago. Special offer of SSD + 2 expansion packs for $160 (instant download). If you have drums you like, then just get a bunch of midi files. There are free downloads from Groove Monkey and Odd Grooves. They are mostly 1 measure patterns in various time signatures and fill patterns. Then build a good drum track that actually goes along with your song. You can also edit the midi to change it up a bit or to make it work better here and there with your tune.

Drummers composes their part to go with the specific tune, just as the other players do. Piecing together midi patterns can help you do what a drummer does. It's actually fairly simple.

Most drummers play groove patterns with added fills here and there and occasional changeups in the basic grooves. Once you have the midi patterns you will see. Jamstix just plays random stuff that is unrelated to your music. It could be useful for jamming along to or to have some drums going on while you are putting a song together, but I would replace it in the final tune. Anyway, there is a Jamstix demo. Give it a try. Many people seem to like it.

EZ Drummer comes with a decent collection of midi and a nice player that makes accessing and previewing your midi collection easy. They also sell it if you want to use it with other drums. Toontracks, the maker of EZDrummer also sells midi patterns. It looks like MF still has this kit on for $79 and the same one plus two expansion packs for $99.

Well, buddy, you won't like me as I paid 29$ for my copy of SS EX. They had that 'stupid' deal thing last week.

I would have prefered the direct download too as I a friend in the US bought it for me (They were offering free shipping in the US) and he'll be remailing it to me once he gets it.
