Collector's Edition Metal Drums: Programmed Drum MIDI (Pack 13)

COLLECTOR'S EDITION METAL DRUMS

Programmed drum MIDI across 14 styles. 308 drum patterns, 22 per style. 58 to 240 BPM.

PROGRAMMED, NOT PERFORMED

Every hit was written in code. These are not recordings of a drummer. Timing is on the grid, and the dynamics come from written velocities, including snare ghost notes. Patterns are written for one drummer: two hands and two feet at most, with left and right kick as separate notes.

MIDI ONLY, NO AUDIO

These files contain notes, not sound. Load your own drum instrument. There are no guitar or bass parts in this pack.
