I’m not sure if I am off topic, for those of you in reason and sick of those boring overused drum loops.
1. Create 3 types of redrum instruments
2. Pan Redrum1-hard left, Redrum-2 center, Redrum-3-hard right.
3. Deselect Bass drum and Snare in redrum 1 and 3.
4. Select redrum 1 and choose any random drum kit
5. Right click in the pattern area and select randomize pattern. Keep randomizing until you get something interesting. At this stage you can switch drum kits to change the flavour.
6. Do step 5 for your Redrum 3, this time make it interesting with redrum 1 playing along.
7. Finally Redrum 2 center can now be programmed with just bass drum and snare. In the middle of the mix. If you need to make a bigger bass drum/snare, try layering different bass drum/snare samples on other freed up channels of redrum 2. Fine tuning should be taken in consideration so that you don’t make unwanted mud. Feed a compressor to tighten the low end. Don’t be scared to add some distortion to you kit.
8. Once all of the sounds are complimenting each other you are done! You can always rewire these into your other DAW for further processing.
Remember rule number 1, there are no rules!
Thanks for reading.
Let me know how it turns out for you
