I may not be a great drummer, but it is a helluva a lot more fun to play your own drums than it is to do things the way I used to. More recently I have been triggering the SD3 kits with my Roland TD25. I have also used it as a writing tool by just auditioning various MIDI loops and putting them into a song format and then jamming with the song until I come up with a few ideas on what I want to play with them. I used to use the Tap-to-find feature to find grooves that fit a pattern I was looking for and it can really save you some time when you have a basic rhythmic idea. I think my task for today will be to check out the Death presets and waste the day on that. Darkness has a lot of good starting points and I have already added my own tweaks to a couple of different variations. I just picked up the Death and Darkness SDX and I haven't even gotten around to checking out any of the Death presets yet. (the first electronic one for when I want electronic drums, for example.) I have a few that cover my needs, as well as a couple of EZ Drummer packs that fit in now and then.
