this is the best tutorial I have ever seen. I have owned this machine 15 years and have never built a song. Thanks man!!!
Awesome man! Glad the video was a help. I've used this machine on a lot of songs, some that I got licensing deals with. I'm shooting a music video now for a tune that I used this machine on. It's a great product.
Outstanding tutorial! I have watched a LOT of tutorials for a LOT of gear. Yours is one of the very best on every level! I haven't even got my Zoom MRT-3 yet. Being shipped. But I feel like after watching your vid. I will be on top of operating this machine in no time at all. Thank you very much. 5-stars!!
Thank you!! Hope you enjoy the machine.
Hallelujah. Great tutorial. You made everything make sense. I have owned this device for about 15 years and had no idea of its potential.
Great! Glad it was a help.
Great tutorial! You inspired me to get this, was £60 off eBay. I remember getting a Yamaha su10 as a kid and thinking it was so complicated but after a few months I could do it blindfolded! 👍😎❤️
It's a great machine. Good find for you. Hope ya like it.
Best tutorial ever! I was about to sell one of these because my brain started to melt every time I opened the manual, but as I googled to find out what it's market value was, I came across your tutorial and I'm now buzzed about using it! Have had it in a box for maybe about 5 years or more. I got this machine because it could be used with AA batteries, and so was very portable. I now have the confidence to make use of it! THANKYOU!
Thanks so much Eilean! It's a great machine that they don't make anymore. I have 2 of them that I've used for years on my recordings and live performances. To hear it's potential check out my Easy Listening Instrumental video. All the drums you hear on that except 1 track was done with the Zoom: ua-cam.com/video/_Qj4KwE1AfM/v-deo.html Hope you enjoy it and write some great music with it.
Finally, I get to fully use my drum machine...thanks.
You are welcome.
Just picked up my MRT-3 today...and never really spent much time with it, having other options (bought this used for $30.00) .. so I picked it up to fool around with yesterday..and today was hoping to find someone on youtube who might of put up a tutorial.
So thankful I found this!!
thank you
Excellent job. You can really teach.God bless you!
Just subscribed!
Much thanks!
Thanks for the great tutorial Steve. I just bought a Zoom MRT-3B after watching your video a couple of times. I appreciate you sharing with us. take care friend.
Glad the video was a help to you.
great little drum machine with some great kit sounds
I first read this channel name as “Steve ok on bass” and I was like; nice to see some humility here🤣
Thanks for the tutorial, I’m rewatching it now. It’s been really helpful.
Thanks, Steve-O! This tutorial was extremely helpful. I've saved it and frequently consult it. Now I've learnt how to use this device in it's full potential. Way better than the manual.
You rock, dude!!! 🤜🏼🤛🏼 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
LOL, all my buddies call me Steve-O. Glad the video was a help to you Igor. It's a great machine. They should put it back into production. I use it on all of my originals and even used it live for a duo I was doing.
Thanks for the tutorial. You have choose the best way to explain how things work by showing it in action!
Happy to help.
Many thanks, Steve.
Hope it was helpful.
great video man I have owned this drum machine for years and have always wanted to program full songs into it but could never find a good video on how to do it. great job I am going to start working on programing it today!
Awesome! Glad the video was a help.
Great video have had for a while too. Thanks!
Thanks Robert!
Dude thanks so much for this video I just got one and this video helped me out so much.
Glad it helped! Enjoy making beats!
Great tutorial, very helpful and thorough.
Thank you! Glad it was a help.
Great demo Stevo, it would have taken me forever to figure this thing out, lol.
I just bought another one as a back up for the one I have. Found it new on Ebay for $27
Thank you so much I've had this machine for about 5 years and never knew how to use it thank you thank you thank you thank you great tutorial of a great teacher
Thanks Eddie. Appreciate it. Glad the video was a help. It really is a good machine. I used it on these 2 tunes: ua-cam.com/video/GfQDgB12nTk/v-deo.html

@@stevekonbass it is gonna be a big help...I learn from seeing it done...I play guitar..drums..bass..harp..piano..a little fiddle...AND love to JAM...THANKS man..I don't have manual...
Thanks man, this is so useful and very very well done!!
Glad it helped!
Thank You! you do'nt know how much helpful that tutorial was!! 🙏🙏🙏
Glad it was a help!! Hope you enjoy using it.
Thanks for this dude, really helpful!
Awesome! Glad it was a help.
Thank you!
It is better to show something than to read and read and read .
You're welcome.
This is great. Thanks. I was given one of these a while back without any manual. I set it aside and just dusted it off to check it out. With the tunes at the end of the video you really can do some nice drumming with it. My only beef was the fu***ng ads interrupting the video. Annoying bastards can't leave us alone.
Very helpful .
all you need to know right here.....great job
Thanks Dean.
I've gotta buy this fucking thing. It's killing me not to have it !! Great video man, thanks for posting
awesome!!!
TNX🙏
You're welcome Andy.
Great vid! Haven't used mine in years and needed a brush up. Fun machine.
Thanks Joe.
I miss my mrt-3...gr8 little machine....have a Boss DR-3 now which has more features but the MRT-3 was so intuitive and the pads were really responsive.
How are the sounds on the Boss?
I think I prefer the zoom sounds...
Thanks a lot
Most welcome.
Thanks yo
Great tutorial but one thing I always struggle with on drum machines is adding intermittent "fills" that sound natural. You should do a tutorial on that - or is the answer you just don't bother with that with a drum machine?
To get a drum machine to sound natural when you're recording a song, you definitely need to put fills in. The trick is to think like a drummer. Make sure to take the hi hat out or ride out when doing a fill. Also, adjust the pad sensitivity so there are dynamics. Put the fills in when changing from verse to chorus, chorus to bridge, etc. Check out my song Plenty 17, I did that with the Zoom MRT-3: ua-cam.com/video/QFSuFXeuZ-E/v-deo.html and also check out the first song, Three Get Down, on my Easy Listening Video. That was done with the Zoom MRT-3 too. Listen to the dynamics of the snare, especially on the fills, and the little ghost strokes in there. I also like to put a bit of reverb on the track to give it a live room feel: ua-cam.com/video/_Qj4KwE1AfM/v-deo.html Most of that whole Easy Listening video was done with the MRT-3. Some tunes I just blew over with one pattern, but others I did fills and changes.
You are the best, thank you.
Thanks!
ok so after spending all day and night trying to figure thing out I got it down and greated a whole song hit the stop button to save it played it back mutable times. and even turn the unit off and back on a couple time to make sure it was saved. went to bed got up today to start creating another one and bam the one I created last night is now gone???? so I have no idea what happened??? any suggestions???
If it was there yesterday after you shut it off and went back to it, it should still be there. Make sure it's not something simple that you're overlooking... make sure you're in the song bank... make sure you're on the right number song... the only way to get rid of a song is to hit the erase button. Hope it's still there.
You do that song at the end of the video...Shine? With your band and the Zoom?
Yes. That was me on bass, guitar, and vocals, and the Zoom MRT-3 drum machine.
Here's the video for that tune: ua-cam.com/video/GfQDgB12nTk/v-deo.html
looking to get one of these...but there are several choices between MRT-3, RT-123,223, 234, 323....All a few dollars apart.
I love mine, but they don't make that model anymore. This is what I use on all of my recordings.
Coel'ho ed è fantastica
Hi Steve, this is a great video. I had one of these 15 years ago, and recorded some demos with my four track tape recorder, and since moved on to using EZ Drummer. However there were certain kits that I liked on this and I'm thinking of purchasing one again to use with Reaper. I've noticed that you have done some recordings with it at the end of this video. Is it possible to record and use this drum machine with a DAW Software like Reaper for example?
Hey Jack- All the recorders I've used it on were stand alone recorders like the Zoom R16 or Boss Br-8, you can see how I used it here at the 2:20 mark: ua-cam.com/video/n_44S76OPYQ/v-deo.html but you should be able to use it with any DAW. The premise would be the same but you won't have the editing like you would with EZ Drummer. Also, you'd most likely have to look to ebay to find one. I actually have 2 of them and the last one I bought I had to get off ebay as they can't be found in stores anymore.
Great tutorial!! Just a question, do you know how to mute the metronome sound when it's recording? Again, thanks for your work!!
No, I don't.
Thank you🤝
You're welcome brother.
Well I recreated a kit that I accidentally decided a long time ago and I have to be careful because it's easy to delete.
During my recreated kit I noticed delete and delete all. Before I go further I need to find out how to back out of that mode so I don't screw up my kits. Peace Leo
LOL, I got too quick with my finger the other day and deleted everything. Oh well.
Thanks for making this video its very useful. I have two of these so I was wondering have you ever had one repaired? One of mine the footswitch stopped working. Thanks again.
I also have 2 but I haven't had either repaired.
PLEASE HELP I recently bought an MRT and I learned a lot with this tutorial but when I want to start recording, only the recording appears step by step and not in real time and these numbers 01-1 appear
So you can't record a pattern or make a song? If it's not working right you can try to restore it to factory settings. To restore to factory settings do this... with the unit off, hold down the REC button. As you hold down the REC button turn the unit on. You'll see Init on the screen. Hit REC again and the unit will return to factory default condition. Don't know if that'll help, but it's something you can try.
Thanks for subbed
How do you save your patterns because when I switch mine off then switch it on again the pattern reverts to empty does not say anything in the manual and nothing online
The pattern should save automatically after you record it and should be there even after you shut the unit off. You could try to restore the unit to factory settings. If you do this though it will erase any patterns that you created. To restore to factory settings do this... with the unit off, hold down the REC button. As you hold down the REC button turn the unit on. You'll see Init on the screen. Hit REC again and the unit will return to factory default condition.

Greetings, thank you for your video, I am writing to you from Venezuela, I have this same drum machine, I just bought it recently and it doesn't play, obviously I already checked the wiring, voltage, connectors, ports, any idea what it could be, you can see all the buttons It works, the electronics are clean and intact inside, without short circuits or repairs, what could it be?
Hello Daniel and "Hello Venezuela!" Hopefully you don't have a broken machine and you can restore it to factory settings. To restore to factory settings do this... with the unit off, hold down the REC button. As you hold down the REC button turn the unit on. You'll see Init on the screen. Hit REC again and the unit will return to factory default condition. I hope that works for you.
@@stevekonbass hi Steven thanks a lot but this trick not functions for me
good tip
Great video I can't wait to build my first song. Question: I got the last one and it didn't come with instructions. I downloaded it so I got it but I want the booklet. Does anyone know how I can get a booklet??? God am I stupid or what. Peace Leo
I prefer the booklet myself, but that'll be a hard find. Hope you like the machine.
Iv had my zoom for years it just goes to show a bad workman blames his tool , I want to hook it up with my guitar pedals any ideas ,I tried before and couldn't get it to work.
It's not really meant to put through pedals. Better to put it through a mixer.
Hi buddy. Is it possible to update the MRT-3 with new drum samples and customize these samples using a MIDI to USB cable and a PC? Thanks mate.
I don't think so. It has a midi in on it, but I think that would be mainly for using another source like a keyboard to control it. Manual doesn't say anything about uploading new samples.
Steve, can I ask you a question about the Tune function on the MRT-3? What is it for? Is it basically to tune the drums? So if I play along to a song in the key of Bm I should tune the drums to Bm within the Tune section of the machine?
The tune function tunes the drums. You can make the pitch higher or lower for each drum. It's a preference thing.
@@stevekonbass Thank you once again 😊
Happy to help.
Great tutorial. Do you know if its possible to disable quantization entirely?
Thanks Alex. The quantize you can set to 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, and 48 but you can also set it to Hi which would be 1/96th of a quarter note.
subbed!
Thank you Sonia! I subbed you as well.
is there a count in on this zoom i hope there is
For patterns, yes. For songs, I create a hi hat count in.
Ever used midi to trigger sounds? I'm only able to use the global sounds & whenever I change the pad sounds it doesn't change when triggered externally
Sorry, I never used the midi.
Steve....Have you ever heard of or tried any of the Beatbuddy's for drums? They have a Mini, Mini 2, and a Pro. Check out a video from them if you haven't yet from "Singular Sound" .com
Let me know when you can...Thanks!
I just took a look at a few videos. They sound good. I still prefer the Zoom though. I like to be able to create my own kits, patterns, and songs. I have 2 of them. I got one on Ebay for $40. I was browsing at the Guitar Center and the only drum machine they had was the Alesis which is ancient. I had one of those back in 2001. Guess there's no market for them.

Just subbed you. You're at 654
hey, i just bought a used mrt3b used from musicgoround and it didnt come with a manual. i am having an issue where when i try to record in a user bank after pressing rec and then play the screen displays a "0" instead of a countdown. and when trying to record pattern it only lets me record one hit at the first beat of each measure. so it is useless. can anyone help me with this?
Sorry you're having trouble with it. Check the user patterns and see if they're all full. If the previous owner recorded on all the user patterns the memory is full and you'd have to erase the patterns. If that doesn't work, you can try doing a factory re-set on it and return it to the factory default condition by initializing it. Here's how you do that: Start with the power off- then hold down the REC button while turning the unit on- the display will show "Init"- press the REC button once more and initialization will take place and the Zoom will be reset to factory settings. Hope that works for you.
@@stevekonbass thanks for fast response, great tutorial btw. it already says "iniL" everytime i power it on. read a few threads about this on gearslutz and appears to be a dead "cap" or internal battery. looks like ill have to send it back to music go round. guess finding one for 39$ was just too good to be true! :( the only reason for me to have a drum machine is create my own beats
Maybe try hitting the record board 1 time after you turn it on and it says Init. Maybe it'll go through the initialization process.
Thank you for this tutorial. I would love to use it for the duo I'm in. However, I tried to follow the very simple directions to play a pattern. I have found the pattern I want to play, I have the pattern button on (red) but when I hit "Play", it just shows measure 01 and beat 1, and nothing happens? Any idea what to do?
First let me ask you this... does any pattern play? For instance, if you have it on pattern A1 and hit play, does it play? If you're not getting anything I'd suggest restoring it to the factory settings. If you do this though it will erase any patterns that you created. To restore to factory settings do this... with the unit off, hold down the REC button. As you hold down the REC button turn the unit on. You'll see Init on the screen. Hit REC again and the unit will return to factory default condition.
@@stevekonbass Wow, awesome response man! Thanks so much, it is now fixed. I don't have any interest in creating beats because I use garage band and other cool stuff. But with 3 banks of 99 patterns (and all the kits available) this will be so amazing just for practicing and probably performing as well. This is better than any "app". Thank you for your service to the music world. I've had this hanging around for years, and now I'm going to actually use it!
Glad I could help Ted and glad it's working for you. Yep, it's a handy little machine. I used it for a duo I was doing: ua-cam.com/video/mqANlYi5KMs/v-deo.html Hey if ya get a chance check out my new channel 2minutepracticejams. Has nothing but jam tracks to solo over or jam along with: ua-cam.com/channels/Md80zVd8Vi7AbJntnVOMfw.htmlvideos

Thanks you brother. Just subbed you back!
Does anyone else have a problem with patterns saving? Should they save automatically?
I have 2 Zoom MRT-3s and never had a problem with saving patterns. Once the pattern is recorded it's saved in the unit automatically.
Steve...I watched and did the same thing to make a song like you, but How can you make the song Longer in length? Like endless Loop (the recorded song) and I will shut it off when I want the end I do, again length wise? Also does the song automatically get Saved in the song section? I had my Zoom stored for like 7 years and just took it back out but forgot how to use it. Thanks for this Great learning Video!! I actually bought a Korg Volca Sample, and it's too hard for me to use...learning it all and confusing. That's why I went back to the Zoom. I wanna use this with my Tascam 4 track recorder (cassette) and my Keyboards, recording music. The preset drums on the keyboards themselves, dn't do any justice Vs the Zoom.
The only way you can do an endless loop is if you just use a pattern. A pattern will just keep looping until you stop it. If you create a "song", there's a limit. And yes, when you create a song it is automatically saved.
@@stevekonbass okay thank you Steve for the info! So when you play songs in your band you have to make the song long enough in the drum machine so you could finish the entire song, correct? So how do you make the song long enough with the drum machine to the length you want of the beginning and ending of the song?
There are two ways I can answer that... if my duo (Sandal Foot) is doing a song where we want to jam and kill time, I'll just play a pattern and keep it looping. When we end the song I'll hit the foot switch that I attach to the drum machine and it will stop the loop. Now if I want a song to have a 4 count in the beginning, a verse, chorus, bridge, solo, and an end, then I'll just create a song as I did in this video. If you pick up the video from around 16:20 I show how to do that. The song I created for this video, which was just a short example, only used 12 steps, but you can have up to 99 per song. Don't forget you can also choose how many bars each pattern you create can be. That combined with 99 steps is plenty for just about any song start to finish.
Thanks Steve, that helped a lot with my foggy brain these days, the info you gave. I don't see any other videos on here with the much needed detail you give on this machine! I watched the video several times already as I learn this....and I am sure I will watch it more. Thanks again Steve!
Is there a way I can fix my MRT3B if the metronome does not come on (when recording a Pattern) nor does it cycle through the bars? Mine displays Measure 01-1 and never changes.. any ideas how to resolve this? Thanks in advance
Sorry bro. The only thing I can think of is to make sure the Kit light isn't on. If you're in the kit section it won't let you record a pattern. Or, maybe you reached capacity with the memory. If that's the case you'll need to erase some patterns. Aside from that I'm stumped.
stevekonbass thanks for the reply and keep on rocking 🤘👌
david b. This happened to mine ,the little internal button battery died, I took it apart and replaced and now is all good, lost all my user patterns though when it died
mine does the same thing? anyone else have the same problem/a resolution
Mine is not saving beats anymore when I turn it off they are deleted can you help?
Sorry to hear that. The manual doesn't say anything about that in the trouble shooting section. You can try to reset it to factory default condition, but if you do that you'll lose all the user patterns and songs you already have saved on it. To reset it to factory default start with the unit off. Then hold down the REC button while turning the unit on. "Init" will appear on screen. Hit REC once more and the unit will return to factory settings. This might not solve your problem, but it's something you can try. Hope it works for you.
stevekonbass Think of the internal battery is bad I took it apart but the battery is soldered in
Hi Steve, Great tutorial!
HELP: Your advice please: I'm a technophobe so please bear with me. I am struggling to create a song. I have the three parts to the song under separate User locations i.e. Intro, Verse/Chorus and End. I am copying the individual parts into the song but when I play back its playing the 4 beat intro twice and also the ending Crash twice - I'm sure there is a simple answer??
Thanks Vaughan. Sounds to me like somehow the intro pattern got inserted twice and the end pattern got inserted twice so all you'd have to do is delete those extra patterns. Try this... pull up the song and hit the step/record button 2 times. The screen should say 02. Then hit the delete/erase button. That will remove the second intro pattern that you don't want. Then you can do the same thing for the end.
stevekonbass thank you Steve, I really appreciate the quick response - and the quick fix to my problem!!
Best wishes from England
Vaughan
Glad I could help brother. It's always nice to hear from somebody on the other side of the world.
Hello again. Would you recommend this product still, or are there better ones out there? I like the size of the Mrt-3, its ease of use, and options too. I ask because I found several on ebay no adapters though 🙂
Hey there. I personally love the Zoom MRT-3. I use it for recordings and I've also used it for live performances with duos. I'll put some links at the end of this reply that you can check out so you can actually hear it used in different situations. People have moved away from drum machines and gone the way of drum software. The software is great, but I still like using a drum machine. The Zoom MRT-3 might be hard to find new, but like you have found, you can find them on ebay. It can run on batteries or you can buy an adapter if the seller doesn't give you one. An adapter is the better way to go. Alesis also makes a drum machine and you can probably buy one new. I owned one of those too. It was easy to use and visually looking at the screen it was easy to understand, but I'm not a fan of Alesis products. You don't have a lot of choices if you want to buy a drum machine, but yeah, I think the Zoom is great. Here are some links you can check out... on this track you can hear the subtleties of the hi hat and kick, which is good because you don't want the hi hat and kick to be in your face: ua-cam.com/video/WAQYkeE2Yvk/v-deo.html
.... here's another where you can hear some cool tom fills, ride bell, and crashes: ua-cam.com/video/IjBWKSZ-mf8/v-deo.html
.... and here's a live situation with a duo, the footswitch was useful for starting and stopping: ua-cam.com/video/mqANlYi5KMs/v-deo.html
@@stevekonbass Thank you again 😊 I am as old-school as can be so I love those older things like drum machines ect. Just something about keeping it like it was done that I can’t get past. Thank you again 🙏 Think I will go for one of these. Wish you a great weekend.
Just an update: got one off of Ebay 80$. Looking forward to trying it out. Thanks for the great tutorial.
I hope you like it and get use out of it.
@@stevekonbass Thanks 😊
Nice, But it can't touch my BOSS DR5 .....
Just picked one of these up used and I can play live beats on it happily, but I can't seem to get it to record & play back patterns yet. Am hoping this video will clear some things up for me, but I've run into a red flag already - when I press play on a pattern, it does nothing (screen doesn't change beat, no lights, no sound). I'm hoping it's a weird setting or fixable problem, not a sign that my machine just doesn't work. If anybody has some advice for me on how to get that up and running, it'd be super appreciated!
Sorry you're having troubles with it Jessica. Try pressing "Pattern" and then use the + or - buttons to scroll to one of the "pre-set" pattern banks. Those will be A1-99, B1-99, C1-99, and D1-99. So pull up any pattern in banks A, B, C, or D and then press play. If it doesn't play then there's a problem. You can try doing a factory re-set on it and return it to the factory default condition by initializing it. Here's how you do that: Start with the power off- then hold down the REC button while turning the unit on- the display will show "Init"- press the REC button once more and initialization will take place and the Zoom will be reset to factory settings. Hope that works for you. If it doesn't play after that I'd suggest you return it.
@@stevekonbass Factory reset worked like a charm... Thank you so so much! You just saved me a ton of frustration and time.
That's great news! Glad to hear it's working. I'm actually using my Zoom drum machine right now and recording a new song. It's a great machine to use once you get the hang of it. Hope it serves you well.
@@stevekonbass Good luck and have fun with that new song!
How do the pads feel & handle finger drumming?
The pads have different sensitivity settings so you can adjust them to how hard or soft you hit the pads.That really helps to getting your patterns to sounding real.
@@stevekonbass cheers for replying. I know kit change is possible via midi. What about pattern change?
I don't use the midi so I couldn't answer that one for you.
Well I've been working on it all day. Does anyone know how to save what I record? I watched the video and read the instructions and nothing about how to save. Wtf
Patterns are saved as soon as you record them. Songs are saved as you make them.
Well I play it back and it's good. When I shut it off and then turn it back on everything gone. I've been doing it all day
Well, if you hear the playback of what you created, and then it's gone after you shut the unit off and turn it back on, you might have a bad machine. Any pattern or song you create should be there when you turn it back on. Make sure when you turn it off you shut it off by using the on/off switch on the unit and not shutting it off from a power strip or wall switch. Other thing you might want to try is resetting the unit to factory default. If you do that you'll lose what you recorded, but it sounds like it's not saving for you anyway. To restore to factory settings do this... with the unit off, hold down the REC button. As you hold down the REC button turn the unit on. You'll see Init on the screen. Hit REC again and the unit will return to factory default condition.
@@stevekonbass I just did it and I'll let it go for now.
Tomorrow is another day. Thank you so much. Peace Leo
Drums sounds very 80s to me. Am I wrong?
Well, there are newer more modern ways to get sampled drums sounds, but off the top of my head, there are about 60 kits to choose from in this machine and the pitch of each drum can be tweaked. It's kind of funny that drums can sound dated, but you're right, they can.
