Please allow triplets! You're missing out big without a basic shuffle! I also second the other comments about ordering. Cymbals on top, snare and toms in middle, bass and other pedals on the bottom. e.g.
hh |x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|
S |----o-------o---|
B |o-------o-o-----|
- nxpnsv 2y agoI guess you could make a 3x16 pattern but interpret it as a 4x12, so each beat is three steps...
- badmintonbaseba 2y agoThey don't roll over to the next 16 on playback automatically, which makes this very awkward.
- wesz 2y agoIs order CH, OH, CY, CB, MA, CL, HC, MC, LC, SD, BD, AC fine or need any other adjustments? There will be support for triples, soooon.
- unnamed76ri 2y agoI’ve never seen a drum pattern setup where the kick and snare are at the top. Usually from bottom to top it is something like: Kick, Snare, hihat, toms, various cymbals
- wesz 2y agoJust reversed it. Check it out.
- flakes 2y agoSome other ideas: - 2 bar patterns would also be great. Many patterns repeat over 8 quarters. - Allowing accents (dynamics). A lot of drum patterns involve just a few drums, where accents are what bring the pattern to life. With accents and triplets, you can have the Purdie shuffle [1], which is one of my favorite patterns ever :) :[1] https://tomtommag.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Purdie-Shuffle.jpg https://tomtommag.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Purdie-Shuf...
- wesz 2y agoCould you provide some kind of mockups of different bar patterns you would like to see implemented?
- flakes 2y agoThat link I sent is an example of standard notation I used when playing set. For accents, something like bigger or smaller circles could work fine. Purdie shuffle would look like: 1 2 3 4 hh |x-xx-xx-xx-x| S |-o--o-Oo--o-| B |o----o-----o| Or something like a basic jazz shuffle: 1 2 3 4 hh |x--x-xx--x-x| S |---o-----o--| B |o--o--o--o--|
- 082349872349872 2y agolooks like the original TR-808 handled triplets, see p.15 of the manual: https://cdn.roland.com/assets/media/pdf/TR-808_OM.pdf https://cdn.roland.com/assets/media/pdf/TR-808_OM.pdf ; for example, the SHUFFLE and BOOGIE on p.13 of the sample patterns at the end of the manual.
