Drum Machine Software Question (techno, electronic, drum, house, effect)

SlightlyBroken · 12-28-2008, 03:22 PM

Not sure if this is the place for this thread as I am only on here to ask this question. Any help would be appreciated, or re-directing me to place where my question could be better answered would be great.

So, essentially I'm starting to record my own music, and the only thing I don't play is the drums so I was thinking of getting some drum machine software, but I know nothing about any of the software programs and I don't want to waste my money. I read a few reviews and EZdrummer sounded solid to me, but I would like to have some techno-ish/electronica sounds, similar to the Postal Service.

Just looking for recommendations

Also, I am aware that programs are available via torrent but I don't plan on stealing them so something cost-effective would also be great

Appreciate any help - Thanks

Uh, well my drums, are at my dads house, so i go play em there, and i bring my guitar, but here at my moms, i have my guitar, what i do is go on google and type in Dany's Drums, and there'll be some thing saying YoYoGames Showing Danys drums v.02 or something like that. click on that, and open your sound recorder, make a beat on the virtual drum kit, record it, make it real loud on your mix program, and there yeah go.

If not iuno, theres a program called Ezdrummer, its not free but its seems good heres a vid

Anyways, i dont know if you can play beats with your keyboards, i know you can get and make some cool ones though, try it.
