Drum programming tutorial 2 - R&B

Here's another easy and great beat.


Step 1 - Add the closed Hi-Hats , all at  UP Beat position

Step 2  - Add bass drums ,  first and the fourth beats are playing at down beat and the third beat at syncopation.  Don't forget to listen to it once to understand the style.

Step 3 - add the snare drums like the following chart.  I change the last  closed Hi-Hat into Open to make it sounds more Groovy.

That's it ! Very simple ! Have fun !!

Dr Drum Beat Maker -  I recommend this software that creates beats automatically.

K-D Studio - That's the electric guitar course that I'm teaching in Hong Kong.
