Hello,

i´m in need for that inbetween of a Metronom vs. a Drummachine,
something like the Boss DR 660 Drummachine and similar.
Somethjing that has some basic rytms on board. Such thing like the DR 660 would be perfect. (Personally i´m on a Mac. ( M1/Bigsur) )

Is there anything ?
i just had some surches…can´t find any.

optional comments:
i helped me right now, using my (quite new) Microtonic.
so i have a workaround if i can´t find anything better suited.

Not shure if i should consider one of these nifty Drum thing-thangs…?..maybe…
Natural drum sounds would be good. But has to be easy to deal with rytms, and easy on the CPU would be nice.

point is: the rytms !
…i´m flexible vs. the sound. ( a la Dr 660 would be fine)
i need to find -for some recordings i want to do ( ambienty piano playing with delays etc.)- the tempo i have to play within.
Need to rehearse to play to a strict tempo, so a recording will work in a grid

Not directly a drummachine, but somebody mentioned https://www.powerdrumkit.de a few days ago.

You can drag and drop from the groves or compositions into the GP MIDI file player - et voila :sunglasses:

ohoh, guess thats a keyword vs. my whole “idea/wish”.

i hoped dor a drummy that has the grooves/rytms onboard,
so i also could switch just by using a widget.
…the picture becomes now clearer, as we speak.

i was just studying the addictivDrums from XLN.
Seems all this tools would work, based on using midi files that HAVE to be loaded to a DAW, …or sayed midi-file player, …is that correct ?
thats what i exactly would like to avoid ! at least for “something for the quick”.

That’s the one I was going to mention as well.
Nice free plugin if you don’t want to step up to something like EZdrummer 3. Both have patterns you can use.

i will give it a try.

for something commercial:
EZ drummer over “addictive Drums” ?

Thanks for the tipps everybody !

EZ Drummer is very comfortable when building songs with the inbuilt sequencer.

how does it work, you do NOT need to have any DAW running in parralel ?
you can run the rytms from within EZD (just within GP), and also switch rytms from within EZD ?

wait, it says on their page:

Onboard grid editor, step sequencer and more

so i guess it does. Need to check…( do they have sales once in a while ? )

The had a special introduce price.

yes that is doable.
But you cannot switch rhythms via HOST- or MIDI-Automation.
Within EZD you can do that.
