Let's Audition a Drummer

Create a new project, swipe to Drummer, then tap Acoustic.
Tap Play button to hear Kyle play. While he’s playing, tap the word “Half-pipe,” then tap to choose different presets. Listen to how the beat changes.
Pick a different drummer. Tap Kyle’s icon, choose a drum kit style, then tap the name of a new drummer.
Adjust how the drummer plays. Slide the yellow puck up or down in the XY pad to adjust the drummer’s loudness. Slide the puck left or right to adjust the beat’s complexity.
Tap pieces of the drum kit — such as the cymbals, toms, and snare drum — to mute or unmute them. Drag the sliders for additional beat variations.
Switch to Tracks view. Once you have a beat you like, tap Tracks View button. Your drummer’s beat now appears on its own track and can be edited like any other region.
