Being able to play the drums, or understanding drum theory also helps:)

yeah, im trying to find some books on rythm theory
and i think i found some
but nvm

link sent to pm :]

@loopdon thanks, ill try this

[loopdon]

it does sound similar i guess :)

you might have to leave out notes that might not belong to the kick pattern..

i guess loading up the mp3 in your daw together with the midi file(s) would be the best way to follow the pattern played.

like this:

channel one: midi pattern -----------------------------------------------
channel two: mp3 -----------------------------------------------

so you can hear/see what's going on and in how far the midi is correct.

please report back, i'd be interested. you could even cut out a kick drum from the mp3 and let that be played by the midi.

i tried what i suggested and made some variations. i basically cut up a part of the mp3 and used the kick drums samples i gained for some loops. it's whacky, i know, hehe.

here's a loop package, 4 bars each @140 bpm:

three different kicks cut from the mp3, each loop with swing and without. seemed to make the shizzle gel better.

absolutely stunning program.

different detection modes

- 'percussive'
- 'melodic'
- 'polyphonic'

there's a vst version as well. but that doesn't have the same functions. superb nonetheless.

melodyne is the 'industry standard', i'd say.

i used it to analyze bassline-patterns from tracks as well. esp. good when the bassline patterns are free, i.e. in a break without percussion clogging the detection up.
