Re: Drum programmers - advice please
1. I use BFD 2, which I love, though I hear Superior Drums is pretty good. I pencil in my own beats/grooves cause I've never really found a loop that does what I specifically want.
2. I'm a guitarist, born and bred, so I know what you mean when you say you have a tough time. Best way to practice/write "real" drums is to listen to bands/drummers that you like. Listen to how they play. You only have 4 appendages, 2 arms, 2 legs, so at any given time, a real sounding beat can have no more then 4 hits. Try to recreate your favorite patterns and such.
