Programming drums in Logic Pro?....

What's the best way to program drums in Logic pro. I'm wanting to program drums mainly for metal, rock, progressive-but other stuff too.

Will I want to program mainly in the piano roll, or ultrabeat. or posibly the hyper editor? I use to programs drums in Cubase many years ago and it was very easy. I'm not digging the piano roll at all. I haven't found anything in logic close to the drum editor in Cubase.

I'll probably buy a program like Superior 2.0, BFD or Addictive(or something similar. But I want to find something I enjoy programming with(again, I'm not digging the piano roll for drums and percussion).

Thanks!!

I should have guessed that the answer to the column-width conundrum would be that the containing fixed-width div would break.

Less satisfying than an alert message, & I have no excuse for not expecting it since I've seen this div break with excessively large posted images many times before… & of course this is how divs behave normally in compliant browsers.

Notice how I cleverly managed to talk completely off-topic, but still refer indirectly to the Original Post by my use of the word 'conundrum'… +(good name for drum software — has it been done?)+

Which one of you wiseguys reported my post which broke the Forum? I had a lovely long word extending for a couple of hundred characters, & it stretched the div for miles. Then I get an email from 'host' saying it got pulled for being off-topic.

Now that's just not fair.

Programming drums in Logic Pro is a very interesting topic, which can only be properly covered by the use of incredibly long words which break the Forum.

I demand a recount.

Some believed it was the binary output of the ROM data of the G3 sample of the U20 piano - ( cough if true, it was SirBeej!!!! Only he has the ability to interpret compressed samples as binary and match them to their sources). : ^)

Ah. Do you mean you were caught using the U20 (or equivalent)?

Funny you should say that... the U220 was my first serious module, and I just sold it a few months ago. Along with my X5dr, that has served me well for many years.
The U20 I would like to have though - because of the keys. I guess I would buy it for € 99 or less.

Programming is the general term but there are sub terms to describe each type of programming. I don't remember them all perfectly but it is something like this

Real Time Programming = Playing in realtime using some sort of Midi controller or midi sound module. example: playing a drum beat from your midi controller as the metronome clicks/beeps.

Step Time or Non-Realtime programming = entering data, notes, controller data, any data including audio in your sequencer, with a mouse, trackball or step time keyboard in logic. you are not playing live in this situation, you are punching in notes without playing. Examples: opening the piano roll and using the pencil tool to enter one note at a time as the sequncer loops over and over. or taking single hit audio drum sounds and laying them out on an audio track to create a drum loop or program glitches.

Synth programming: Has come to mean sound design using synthesizers, hardware or software, samplers etc any type of sound source.

That is all I can think of.......
