Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book/cassette pack consists of two parts: one for non-drummers who want to program drum machines, and one for drummers with percussion controllers who want to expand their playing by using melodies and not just rhythms. The part for non-drummers features more than 35 grooves and feels, and uses rhythm maps - unique simple reference guides used to get the 'real feel.' The section on percussion controllers gives all the instruction needed to play melodic and bass lines, plus chords and melodies. It finally frees the drummer from continually playing the rhythm parts. The Art Of Digital Drumming also gives advice on how to construct a song - where to put fills, ties, etc. The accompanying cassette covers all of the demonstrations found in the book.
