    Hello.
    I really don't understand this pattern and maybe someone can help me with a Ableton Live max version 9.6.1 midi drum file for kick's, snares, hats, etc
    It's Barac style :D
    Here is the track :D

    Thank you!

    Either trolling posts are increasing a lot lately, either some members are incredibly "creative", can't figure it out :dunno:

    Have you tried out Ableton's "convert drums to new midi track" ?
    it probably has a hard time in this example but maybe it will get u somewhere ;)
    search a part in the song where only the drums play, (mostly)
    and then eq out the sub,
    should do the trick

    It's a fairly simple pattern with very distinct sounds. If you can't get your ears around it, chances are that being it delivered to you on a plate would not help you grow in any way. I mean, if you can't properly distinguish those sounds you will not be able to mix them properly so whatever song you want to do with that groove will suck anyway and this is normal at your level.

    Just loop a part in that original track and try to listen the various percussion elements there (use a band pass EQ if helps) and try to place your own samples in the same order. This is the only way you'll be able to train your ears and identify easily other loops in the future. Also kick and bass have a nice interplay there, maybe high pass them alltogether so you can focus better on the upper percussion.

    trying to figure out how stuff you like is made, a good way to improve your skills

    i gave it a shot, i think i got it,
    insert a drum rack and put the midi there, you just need to find a working kit and adjust the drums to your liking
    try the 808 kits, they fit well
