About

This is a database annotated and curated by Aarón Montoya-Moraga.

This project is digital transcription of drum machine patterns, taken from the book 200 Drum Machine Patterns by René-Pierre Bardet.

Original notation

The original book uses the following abbreviations:

  • AC: Accent
  • BD: Bass drum
  • SD: Snare Drum
  • LT: Low tom
  • MT: Medium tom
  • HT: High tom
  • CH: Closed hi-hat
  • OH: Open hi-hat
  • CY: Cymbal
  • RS: Rim shot
  • CP: Clap
  • CB: Cowbell

The unit of time used is a sixteenth note (black fill), or a sixteenth rest (white fill).

Most patterns are in 4/4 time, which means there are four quarter notes in a measure.

The sixteenth-note unit used by drum machines allows each beat to be broken into four subdivisions.

1 measure = 4 quarter notes

1 quarter note = 4 sixteenth notes

1 measure = 16 sixteenth notes

The notation only specifies when each drum is hit, not its duration.
