"Drums are super important in my songwriting and they're largely where I'll invest most of my time during songwriting aside from guitars and vocals" Way to call out bass players lmfao
Hey man, thank you so much for the kind words! I'm super happy it helped you so much. I'm thinking of making more of these kinds of tutorials, so please let me know if you have any questions!
If you're struggling with writing your own drums because you've never done it - look no further, I got you covered! Keep in mind: These are just the basics. I will probably make a more in depth video sometime down the line covering velocities, quantizing, accents and drumfills. I remember giving my bandmate like 7 arms regularly during our early years. Sorry for that, bro. I learned! How many limbs did your drummer have to grow to play the stuff you programmed?
i dont mean to be offtopic but does anyone know a way to get back into an Instagram account? I stupidly forgot the login password. I would appreciate any help you can give me.
@Duncan Beckham I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im trying it out now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
This is the only video that really worked for me, implicitly showing the most used drum beats in metal and teaching how to program them is incredibly helpful, thanks to this video I am actually capable of writing my own songs, incredible, thank you so much! There's no other video like that.
What a good lesson! As a guitarist and songwriter drum programming is an area I want to keep improving at given that I do not play with a drummer. Have subscribed to this channel and look forward to more similar lessons!
Thank you for the reply. I indeed learned from this lesson. Personally, more in depth beat making, more song arrangements and more of tutorials on the creative process applied to music production from the point of view of a guitarist or songwriter would be great. You are already putting up videos like that!
@@theportablemusician9877 I just released a part two about programming, watch it here if you're looking for some new ideas: ruclips.net/video/m8c8KRvxquM/видео.html I hope it's something that can help you as much as this first lesson did!
Listening to music for however long I have and then creating it yourself, you self consciously know these things while in the process but it’s always nice to get on you RUclips and fall back on videos like these to just refresh the mental with what you already know, but then to see it visually and then learn the actual terms for stuff like this is as good as gold
Thanks! This is what's killing my songwriting as this takes up most time constantly rewriting what i already did. It's nice seeing the way these beats are programmed. Big thank you!
You are very welcome! I just did a part 2 on this topic, go check it out here, maybe it can help you get even further: ruclips.net/video/m8c8KRvxquM/видео.html

The last bit when you had guitars over the drums really hit the nail on the head. You made one guitar riff sound completely different in like 7 different ways simply by changing the groove of the drums. Thank you this helps.
@@mammothaudioengineering I've been trying to figure out the best way to program drums for metal for awhile now, and so far this video is one of the better ones. Do you ever find yourself tuning the drums? I figure you should but I don't know what I should tune them to. Is there a universal tuning that everyone uses by default like "Standard" for guitar tuning?
@@FringeSpectre No, there is no standard drum tuning that I am aware of since the sizes and the drum heads largely dictate, where the drum tuning is going to live and you will be kind of forced to tune it to that range. You can go slightly higher and slightly lower than that ideal range, but anything too crazy will kind of choke the drum. However, I am aware of a few producers that like to tune the drum shells to the key of the song, but that isn't all that important to me, I admit. It's a nice thing when that happens to be the case, like, having the toms be the root, fifth, fourth and octave of the key is nice, but I just really want my drums to be in tune with themselves, more than anything.
@@mammothaudioengineering okay cool that's exactly what I need to know. thank you for your input as this is invaluable knowledge for me. It seems I'm gonna have to invest in Superior Drummer because the only stock kit in Studio One that is based on a real drum set absolutely sucks if you ask me.
@@FringeSpectre Happy to help, my dude! If you're only just starting out, maybe check out Superior Drummer's little brother, EZDrummer. They just released a new version and that program is absolutely great for beginners!

Extremely well done. I don’t play drums, but I’ve played guitar or bass in more live situations than I can remember, so I know what drums are supposed to sound like. I’ve always just used the canned riffs in Easy Drummer, but lately I’ve been interested in programming my own drums. This will be very helpful.
I have a FL Studio mobile, for now. Man, those Lombardo-Slayer beats are insane. I’m putting together Doom/Funeral Doom metal tracks. These tips will work. Thanks.
Love that classic metal guitar tone, man. Great job. Now if we could only find instruction on constructing decent beat transition fills (rolls, etc) that'd be awesome. Love the vid!

Amazing video. I know nothing about drums and your other videos also really helped me grasp it. Would really love a similar video about metal guitar programming too and how to use drums in conjunction.
I'm so glad my videos helped you, that's awesome! I unfortunately never program guitars since I am a guitarist myself and usually record everything the "oldschool" way. But I could maybe do a Q&A video and answer some general stuff, if you want? Drop some questions!

That's a marker track! Right click on your audio track as if you want to add another one of those but simply add a marker track, set the locators, click on one of the two buttons in the marker track itself to add a mark inbetween the locators, use ctrl+m to open the marker menu and name it how you like!

What software are you using here? I've been looking for software like this for a while but never know which one to go for. This looks really good! Awesome video too, Really helpful!
It's mentioned in the first few minutes of the video, I think! I used SD2 in this, but I've switched over to the newer version about a year ago, SD3. If you're a beginner, I suggest you get EZDrummer 3 and not SD3. SD3 is just too much to handle if you don't have some experience already.

Thank you for watching the video, my friend. I unfortunately can't really share any beats, they're only MIDI files. And besides, the point of the video is to show you how you can program them yourself quickly!
There's lots of companies out there that offer drum VSTs and samples. Some that I personally use are Toontrack, Mixwave and Getgood Drums. Check those out!
@@mammothaudioengineering To start I just wanna click and drag pre made drum songs, and worry about programming each drum individually after I have mastered samples..
@@neoconnor4395 I am not sure what you mean by mastering samples. Seems like a weird way to me to go about writing music. All those I mentioned can be used for death metal, no problem at all. Pick what suits you best. The one to get into the easiest in my opinion would be EZ Drummer 3 by Toontrack.
Thank you so much for your kind words! My best advice is to just sit down, and program along, honestly! It looks like it's a lot but you will get the hang of it very quickly, I promise! :)
@@mammothaudioengineering thanks a lot man lol. you recommend downloading superior drummer if you want better drums? I really liked the sounds you had on this video. And groove agent stock sounds don't cut it for me lol
@@Ron.Swanson. if your budget allows it and you know how to mix drums, Superior 3.0 is incredible. It's what I use these days for pretty much any style that require "real" sounding drums. If you aren't that experienced, EZDrummer 2 might be better suited for you since.. well, the name really explains it. Think of EZD2 as SD3's little brother. Sounds amazing too with lots of great and easy to use presets.
Then I hope that this video was able to help you a bit! I do cover a few blast beats in here. Depending on the tempo of your songs, at least one or two should work!
It usually was a bit of both. Sometimes i'd have a riff, lay that down, and see what drums could work. Other times, I'd know exactly what works and just lay down the beat and go from there. Nowadays, I take a lot more time programming drums because I tend to go super in depth to get some crazy complicated beats, depending on the song.

Your lesson was awesome, do you have MIDI file of the last riffs by any chance?
I only have MIDI of the drums, none of the riffs. What do you mean exactly?
Very helpful video, thanks!
Hey Cameron, thanks so much! Glad to have helped!

Thankyou so much
You're welcome!
Hey, if this helped you, I did a video about drum fills and transitions! Check it out here:ruclips.net/video/m8c8KRvxquM/видео.html
Thanks for this useful video. Can you share the beats?
Thank you for watching the video, my friend. I unfortunately can't really share any beats, they're only MIDI files. And besides, the point of the video is to show you how you can program them yourself quickly!
thanks man, this was very helpfull!!
I'm glad it helped, Sergio! Thanks for watching!

Wonderful
Where can I download death metal drum samples?
There's lots of companies out there that offer drum VSTs and samples. Some that I personally use are Toontrack, Mixwave and Getgood Drums. Check those out!
@@mammothaudioengineering What would be the best for adding and arranging death metal drum samples? Thx so much for telling me!
@@mammothaudioengineering To start I just wanna click and drag pre made drum songs, and worry about programming each drum individually after I have mastered samples..
@@neoconnor4395 I am not sure what you mean by mastering samples. Seems like a weird way to me to go about writing music.
All those I mentioned can be used for death metal, no problem at all. Pick what suits you best. The one to get into the easiest in my opinion would be EZ Drummer 3 by Toontrack.
@@mammothaudioengineering I figured samples would get my feet wet
Great video, I can't find what BPM you set for all these, sounds they have different BPM
Thank you, Simon! All examples have the same BPM, which is 160.
@@mammothaudioengineering Awesome, that is what I came up to
THANKS!!!!!
The ta'dah metal had me rolling :D
Haha I almost forgot about that one!
Very good video. But so simple so it looks like I'm not a beginner yet haha ^_^ Thanks.
Thank you so much for your kind words! My best advice is to just sit down, and program along, honestly! It looks like it's a lot but you will get the hang of it very quickly, I promise! :)
great video man thx

what exact program is this?
That's Superior Drummer 2.0. The newer version is what I'm using these days, which is SD3.
what drum kit are you using?
OH SHIT, IT'S RON SWANSON!
I'm using Superior Drummer 2.0 in this video with some custom kit I made ages ago for demos.
@@mammothaudioengineering thanks a lot man lol. you recommend downloading superior drummer if you want better drums? I really liked the sounds you had on this video. And groove agent stock sounds don't cut it for me lol
@@Ron.Swanson. if your budget allows it and you know how to mix drums, Superior 3.0 is incredible. It's what I use these days for pretty much any style that require "real" sounding drums. If you aren't that experienced, EZDrummer 2 might be better suited for you since.. well, the name really explains it. Think of EZD2 as SD3's little brother. Sounds amazing too with lots of great and easy to use presets.
Thanks for sharing this. Now I dont need to look for an octopus for drumming 🤣🤣
Ha! I used to put like 5 tom hits at once together with a kick and a snare to make an "impact hit".
That sounded as good as you're thinking now.
Thank You~
You are very welcome!
I am struggling on writing drums for my post black metal project (since I am a guitarist not a drummer!!)
Then I hope that this video was able to help you a bit! I do cover a few blast beats in here. Depending on the tempo of your songs, at least one or two should work!
Maybe this can help you some too, I did a video about drum fills and transitions! Check it out here:ruclips.net/video/m8c8KRvxquM/видео.html
Thanks this helped alot! Can i ask, when you first started did you program the drums then write over top of that? or record guitar first then drums?
It usually was a bit of both. Sometimes i'd have a riff, lay that down, and see what drums could work. Other times, I'd know exactly what works and just lay down the beat and go from there.
Nowadays, I take a lot more time programming drums because I tend to go super in depth to get some crazy complicated beats, depending on the song.

what bpm are you in?
I think it's between 160 and 165ish
can you make them downloadable as MIDI so i can click and drop them in please???
How does this guy only have 994 subs?
♥️♥️♥️♥️
Sub'd. This is good stuff :)
Thank you for subscribing, my friend!
what the app ?
If you're talking about the drum plugin, it's Superior Drummer 2.0.
the holy grail for an beginner....and not a drummer at that ^^

As he went on explaining each beat I was like 🤔 ok interesting.
