Hello, I (Fred Bolder) have made this drum machine for my Greek rhythm studies, since in most existing drum machines several time signatures that are used in Greek music are not available.
If you buy my e-book Greek Dance Rhythms for Drums - Basics and Beyond, you can request more than 1035 drum patterns from that book for personal use. If the drum machine works on your Windows computer, you can play the drum patterns which makes it much easier to study.
Here is what makes this drum machine different than most other drum machines.
- The drum machine is suitable for almost every time signature that you can think of like 4/4, 3/4, 6/8, 9/8, 12/8, 9/4, 7/8, 5/4 etc.
- A pattern can contain measures with different time signatures (for example two measures in 4/4 and one measure in 3/4)
- There are several options to make the drum machine sound more human, like additional hits and Humanize volumes
- Flams and rolls are very easy to program
If the Microsoft .NET Framework Runtime is not yet installed on your Windows computer, you need to download and install it.
The drum machine uses the Microsoft XNA Framework which you need to download and install.
