Hi,
Does there exist an extensive library of drum beats for Hydrogen, or
plain midi, or something else that works on Linux?
Thanks,
Ryan

You could check out specimen, a pretty nice MIDI sampler... Just load
any WAV file.
And you can get these, for example, here:

Fantastic site, all grassroots. Check out their hip hop kicks, they're
grand.
There's a whole lot of other listings here I haven't researched yet:

Hope that helps ya out

What I mean by "drum beat" is the rhythm sequence itself. i.e. rather
than sequence a drum beat myself, I would sometimes like to just select
an existing one from a library, and then play over the top of it.

Hi Ryan,
I am looking for the same thing, although I already gave up and vowed to
learn to play the drums myself. I guess by knowing how to play drums you
can more easily program drum beats yourself.
FWIW, I recently found out that Horgand has a build in drumbeat,
programmed for different styles. Unfortunately Horgand is not well
documented and maintained as it is a one-man operation.
Let us know if you find anything interesting along your search.

I've been studying the drum kit for a couple years. I
love it.

Learning to read percussion notation is a one
afternoon study. Developing the skills to play what
you read takes a life time. Programming what you read
into a sequencer doesn't require any musical talent.
And there's lots of notated percussion available free
of charge.
www.drummingweb.com has useful content.

I got a book quite awhile ago called Rhythm Programming. It came with
a floppy that had a bunch of MIDI files. It was inexpensive and
moderately useful.

I also have a library called Drumtrax. These are human played drum
patterns done on a MIDI drum set and captured in a sequencer. The feel
is very real compared to anything you'll ever do (IMO) in Hydrogen and
it's very easy to cut and paste parts of the patterns where you need
them. It has been very useful over the years. Check it out here:
http://www.drumtrax.com/
Last time I checked their little MIDI librarian did work under Wine
but that was quite a long time ago.
Hope this helps,
Mark
