The Download Assistant for C15 shows the following, but I don’t see much about what they are.
So I played around a little looking in the presets. As far as I can tell the “Content” is presets.
- Either “Track Presets - Drum” here
- or Pattern presets - Pattern Editor here
So it seems like drum patterns in general could be either be 1) in the Beat Designer MIDI Plugin, 2) in a Drum Machine Drum Pattern or 3) in Groove Agent.
Drum Machine Content Pack 2 preset names have entries in both Track Presets and Pattern Presets. Drum Machine Content Pack 1 only exists in Track Presets.
PATTERN PRESETS
TRACK PRESETS
Both type of preset (Pattern and Track) can be dragged to the project to create a new track. They are identical except the if you drag from Pattern Presets you get the Drum Machine with samples and patterns and if you drag from Track Presets you only get the samples.
And there’s no way, having dragged in a track preset to access any of the paterns, theres no way to directly load patterns into a pre-existing Drum Machine Track part.
So here I’ve added Beast Mode as a Track Preset, drawn a part using the pencil and tried to see what patterns are available
N.B. There’s no “load pattern” option
On the other hand if I create a track by dragging in Beast Mode as a Pattern Preset…
So if I wanted to use patterns from one Drum Machine preset in another Drum Machine preset, there’s no direct way, except to use the new “Convert Pattern Event to MIDI Part” shenanigans which seems like a pretty convoluted way.
I hope that info may have helped someone!
