Ableton Forum

If you want interesting drum patterns (and are uninspired), you could get manuals loaded with different pattens of rhythm and build them using Battery. (I guess this would be equivalent to chord encyclopedias for guitar.) You can get these online or from a decent music store.

Get a REAL drummer, who knows what a pattern, and a downbeat is........

your song and project will sound a 100% better than all the wana be
drummer who use those so call drum sampler. !!!!!!!

and from a member of the forum named "Big Bone", I think we know that you are a drummer. Yeah, a professional musician will always do better. I think that drums are the most difficult instrument for me to include in my music. The easiest is guitar and vocals because that is what I do. I would say that a synthesized or sampled guitar would never do justice.
Unfortunately, the individual that posted this in the forum seems to want to do this on his own and without a professional drummer.

hey i'm not bashing anybody here, i respect the fact that a personne
wana do there drums tracks,,,,,,,i just answer it as a drummers....

and one of the reason a drums is so hard to get (or record) it is that you got
many instument in one, and you got to blend it together to make it sound good,a kick, a snare, a cymbale by itself can sound amasing, and blend it together ,
that's another story,
that's why it is so hard to get a drums sound if you dont realy know how a drums first should sound......

And again, i don't wana start a war bettwen the one who programme , and the drummers who play's........all is good, as long as the song sound great....

And by the way, the name ''bigbone'' got nothing to do with drumming .....hehehehe

thanks feyshay

Really useful thread, thanks guys.

yes get a drum kit and a good teacher
