Radiola Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 HeyI am making an album of sorts of my own material.I am using Garage Band to get the music on the mac and have been struggling to make good drums. I can usually get the loops I am looking for and they work for parts of the songs but for a whole song they end up sounding monotonous and shit.I was wondering if any of you like minded individuals would be interested in adding real drums to some of the recordings I have made.Or giving me tips on how to make drums using software that could make what I have sound better. Thanks in advance.Dave radiola-band.blogspot.com Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You may have to dish out a few bucks and learn to layer tracks, but you can get a decent drum part. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stickman Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Or you can manually edit some of the apple loops, add fills here, slight differences there...I especially found it important to change the velocity or volume (can't remember what it is called) of each drum hit. I was just messing around with some today in fact. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thermocaster Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Have you tried EZDrummer yet? Google it. I've been using it on my projects for 3 years and haven't been disappointed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
