![]() on my page at on the left pane the first track Bang Bang (it's actually 95% done) is a drummer playing the e-kit, then following 4 tunes are using the Groove Monkee templates I programmed/edited. I really try to treat them as creating a sound that fits the song being produced. I rarely just let them fly as they come out of the drum program, as they will just sound too generic. Once I have a MIDI drum performance where I like it, I will commit those all as individual audio tracks and then treat them just as any recorded drum kit. Loops just don't sound organic and can't sound as much like a player to me. Sometimes if it's something unique I like in Stylus RMX I'll drop that in. I use primarily Slate Drums nowadays to trigger things on either my PT10HD or PT12HD rigs. You can cut em or change anything you want on them once you are editing them in PT. They are unquantized and actually played by a good drummer. They are pretty inexpensive and they cover just about every format available. I started using them about 10 years ago for quite a bit of TV/Commercial cue work. Either a drummer plays it on my Yamaha DTX920 kit/or sends MIDI files to me, or I use MIDI files from a site called Groove Monkee. I've never had anyone really say they noticed them as virtual. I don't use loops, but rather MIDI triggering the drum samples player.
