Should I Get A Roland Tr For Drum Programming Or?, Programming drums in MIDI Options

[bradondc]

I'm relatively new to music production, I'm having s lot of difficulty making beats i'm happy with. There doesn't appear to be a way of creating midi loops from scratch on garage band. I also find trying to make drum loops using samples a bit of a pain as there is the constant 2ing and throwing of each sample trying to line it up. I was looking at idrum (had the demo but it expired before i got proper chance to try it out) as a way of making drum loops, but was also considering a roland tr-626, using this to program beats. I was wondering too if i used the midi out i could also use it too play other software instruments? Any other suggestions on beatmaking would be great.

There is alot to grasp when trying to get to grips with song writing and music composition.

Cheers for your time.

In Garageband open a new software track with a drum kit from the built in choices. Then click window >keyboard typing<. Arm the track to record and then press Record. You can now record your own midi drum track using the keyboard on your computer., This can then be edited, notes added, lengthened etc.
When you are happy with a section. Cut it and then drag it to your open loop browser. GB will then present you with a box in which to tag your loop and then add it to your loop browser.
