pa4x- how can i manually play drums in keys

Post by smifenuf1 »

hi gang
anyone know where i can find to play drums manually with my fingers on the keys? i see that it can accompany me and i see other instruments but can't seem to find the button to play drums on keys with my fingers manually with auto-instrumentation accompanying me.
Thanks,
Shannon

Choose a drum kit as an UPPER sound (e.g. UPPER 1) then you can still play the chords with your left hand and the drums with your right hand - you may need to mute the style drum track if you are wanting to provide all the drumming yourself.

What also may help you here is to record a Chord Sequence for your song and then that will leave you 2 free hands for the drumming.

Hope this helps.
