Totally agree about the program: its a must have. Everyone should try it.
A few top tips:
program everything at double the tempo that you actually want, to get rolls
in properly.
don't stick to obvious drum combinations: try using seven snares and a
cowbell.
write melodies by using the graph editor to stick all of the resonances at
max and then use cutoff level to tweak the pitch.
if yr beat sounds a bit weak, try putting global cutoff and resonance both to
about 80 percent.
the heaviest kick sound i can get is by sticking loads of amp and distortion
and a bit of decay on one of the bass samples from the DS folders.
If anyone has any loops (playlisted: im too boring to control it live) id
love to hear them
