Re: R: Drum machines--other neophyte questions

Another option is a drum loop software.
An excellent software, realy worthwhile looking at is FruityLoops
(www.FruityLoops.com). This soft started off as a drum loop creation tool,
but in the mean while it has evolved to a full sequencer software 
(including
SoftSynth).
It easy of use combined with its powerfull features makes it worthwhile to
look at.

By the way, I use this software as my personal guitar accompaignon. I just
load some rythem loops and there we go ...
