I think I'm going to turn this topic into a whole course, thoughts?
🕑 Added 2025-09-11 15:32:01 +0000 UTCThis is a subject I just can't get enough of!
Humanising drums, despite the genre, is such a tricky tightrope to walk, for us producers/beatmakers it's starts at sound selection but there's so many things I've picked up from being a drummer for 2/3's of my life that just make sense in the DAW. I've started with this chapter, something you can adopt from today and make it a part of your workflow but the rabbit hole runs so deep. Would you guys like a deep-dive for the Patreon?
As always a template of today's content as well as 20+ MIDI grooves are attached (just make sure you're copying your hats/snares like the tutorial suggests to have them sounding right!)

Yes, a course of videos on this topic would be great. Relatedly, anything on drum pattern programming would be really useful for me. Appreciate that often this is dictated to an extent by genre, but some principles, eg by instrument (how to programme effective kick, hats, snare) by both pattern and timbre would be useful - esp with the focus on humanising. Great video as always - thank you
