Love GA, but finding patterns sucks Donkey butt

I’ve been using GA Pro (or full or whatever it’s called) since it came out and quite like it.

But trying to find patterns is far too difficult. The titles of the patterns don’t mean anything, really. It would be better if there was some kind of built-in meta that would give the nature of the beat (what the bass drum is doing, if the snare is just 2 and 4 or if it’s doing ghost notes, etc…)

KONTAKS 60s Drummer uses a code that help clear stuff out.

We need a better solution than just names for songs we’ve never heard.

There is meta. You need to add the columns. Then you see BPM and other terms I think.

Thanks. I know about that, but I was saying that it’s hard to find beats by their bass drum and snare hits. The BPM is there, but there is no way to know if it’s a straight 2/4 beat with just a K/S/K/S with 1/8ths on the high hat, etc. Just names like “Flannel Shirts” - what does that mean?

Did you try to turn of preview?
