High Quality Midi Files extracted from real world performance commercialy available product line in pdf format
We took one of the world's most recorded drummers and accurately extracted
his feel from an acoustic recording session. The advantage of this is that
you have access to extremely high quality midi files that accurately capture
the groove of a world class drummer. Purdie did not play on drum pads to
generate these midi files because they don't translate the subtle timing
and feel that real drum heads give.

The DNA groove Templates included on the CD Rom contain Bernard Purdie's
feel from straight ahead, laid back, driving to shuffling. These "proven"
feels can be used in your original midi sequences to humanize your melodic/percussion
rhythm sections. The files are 0701m1b.grv and 0701m1p.grv which are the
original Cubase format. Performer, Cakewalk, Logic and Cubase users can
use these templates in this format
