Any style, any signature, any percussion instrument, strictly general MIDI compatible. And when you are not satisfied, you need just a few clicks to change the rhythm in the entire song. No more stupid MIDI files, grooves, loop collections or similar archaic nonsense.
• Plays groove, automatically puts fills and just works like a real drummer. Give him order to play and he will know what to do. You can practice or jam with him, build rhythm tracks for your songs or even use him instead of a real drummer.
• Rhythm Generator creates the entire rhythm containing groove (alterations with different complexity level) and hundreds of fills, intros and outros from just one groove base loop.
