The Easier Drum Machine 3N

Publisher's description of The Easier Drum Machine

view larger

This program was made to fill a shortfall in drum sequencing tools and programs. This program allows any key on the computer keyboard to trigger samples in either *wav or *mp3 formats. These samples can make songs of any length with up to 12 samples at any given time playing together. An entire song could be written using this program alone.

One of the most interesting features of the EDM is that you can have any number of keys assigned to trigger samples so as to have quintuplet beats. Too many drum plug-ins suffer from their rigidity of programming, problems with latency, poor quantization, or just too steep of a learning curve to make drums easily available for music creation. I decided to put my introductory programming skills to use and make a music program to further everyone's ease in making interesting and quick drumbeats, rhythms, and sequences.

  The Easier Drum Machine

  Crap, go with soemthing else like - Rhythm Rascal 1.5.2.4

  by: Scremo on 11-Aug-2005 01:58:14 PM

  Pros: interface is kind of nice looking even though there isn't much of one i mean there isn't even a exit button!

  Cons: ok to start of its as slow as a snail, it just plain sucks, theres no real exit button the only way to mak eit go away is to hit the esc key which doesn't always work or the CTRL+ALT+DEL it away. Theres no uninstaller and you can't even find it in your programs list t ouninstall it, the only place to find it is if you go t owere you extracted it because it doesn't even show up under you start up menu, so you just have delete everything not knowing if you got everything of your comp. The other guys reveiw was crap he must be a friend or the actual creator trying to his crap software out. I f i were you i'd stick to Rhythm Rascal 1.5.2.4 which is found on this site just search rascal it'll come up

  Don't even bother

  Pros: Search me

  Cons: Crashes worse than anything I've ever downloaded off the web. Even Ctrl-Alt-Del won't fix it - I just had to reboot.

  It did get as far as showing the user interface which just looked cluttered and amateurish.
