How do I make DRUMMER follow?

It's not meant to follow time.

It follows the rhythm and groove and tries to fit the snare and kick to the selected track.

You still have to play in time.

Being a working musician, it is often a question I've often asked myself.

This is a guess because I'm not on Logic X (yet).

Because your rough drumbeat doesn't have a built in tempo, bounce and import the drumbeat and see if drummer follows.

I don't use loops much but thought I remembered hearing that bouncing a file in Logic embeds the current tempo information. Don't know though, haven't actually tried it.

Hi

I think Kerochan is referring to this

He is talking about Kick and snare follow on Drummer regions:

It should work both via MIDI and Audio.

This is a perfect showcase for Logic Pro X new Smart tempo feature:

So if i tick 'follow' in DRUMMER, it will follow Apple Loops ok.

First of all, are you talking about a Drummer Track? And what parameter "follow" are you talking about, because a Drummer Region (the yellow ones) doesn't have a Follow Parameter.

Only Audio Loops have the "Follow Tempo and Pitch" checkbox in the Region Inspector and other Audio Regions have the "Follow & Flex" parameter (but only if Flex is enabled on that Track.

Hope that helps
