... and sent two long mails, explaining very well the complexity of the
job.
Thank you!
I hate drum machines, personally, but from all the demands by the
instructors for quickly changing times and speeds it seems to me that
for a begginner at least, the easiest would be to take a notebook
along with a library of drum patterns that can be mounted as the
instructor explains what he wants and then freely adapted as he
changes his mind. The advantage for the dancers would be that each
repetition is exactly the same and for the musician it would be an
oportunity to learn to play along and for the overall sound you would
have a exact drum with someone playing more or less colorfull
along... did you try that or am I completely wrong here?
And to bring back the looping side: once such a combination of
patterns is established and repeated (if it is), you can place
command notes for a loop tool into the MIDI sequence and such have it
repeat automatically what is needed!
