- Hi, I'm Mahmoud, owner of Mammoth Audio Engineering. I'm a producer, engineer and musician. Visit my homepage here to learn more about me: www.mammothaudioengineering.com/
In this video, I will show you 16 Fills and Transition ideas for your metal songs. For the "Programming Metal Drums Video", go here: • Metal Drum Programming...
This is fantastic. As a guitarist it's made me pay far more attention to what I'm listening to in commercial records and I hope it will improve my own songs. Thank you so much!
Anthony, I am super glad to hear that, especially about how it made your listening experience more detailed and hopefully, your songwriting too!
These videos are super informative. I’m coming back from a decade+ long hiatus from guitar, and have been focused on synths and drum machines and teaching myself to play drums in that time. These videos are helping me tie all that knowledge together and I’m certain they will improve my drum programming for metal and other genres. Thank you so much!!!
U DESERVE MILLIONS OF VIEWS MAN, M DIGGING ITTTTTT
Damn bro, I’ve learned more about the technicalities of drumming in your two videos than I learned in the 40+ years I played in live bands… with real drummers. Respect. 🙏🏻
Thank you for the kind words, I'm so happy to hear that it helps so much! That's awesome!
As a guitar player, this is pure gold, thanks a lot🤘
I hope it helps you on your songwriting journey!
Love the 2-part series on programming metal drums! Really eye-opening to a newbie like me. Lots to unpack here. Can't wait to work on my own variations! :)
I'm glad to have provided a foundation for something you can work on now. Have fun!
This is exactly what I've looking for, thank you so much!
I'm glad it helped you!
Thanks for putting this together.
You're welcome, my dude!
Great vid, very informative. Having them all at the end is super helpful and saves a lot of time instead of skipping around.
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad the ending served a purpose too, after all!
Another really helpful video...thanks heaps again...much appreciated...the way you explain works really well for me...✌💜😃🎸🎤🎧👌

Nice shit man!! I’m diggin it!
Really good work. Very well constructed videos that provide a good basis for experimentation. I especially like that the fills and drum patterns have names and you tell a little trivia about them, so I was able to build well structured practice projects that include all the important info. Many thanks!
Really handy video and well laid out man, as a producer this is super helpful for ideas when programming scratch tracks for bands. thanks!
I'm glad it helped a fellow producer! Cheers man!
Good video. Made me check out your band, Monotob and Entropy are cool
would love to hear the full song. also yea I’m trying to learn so I’m looking at multiple of your videos 😂
My dude, I'm glad my videos help you on your journey! And about the song: it's one my band's, currently being finished and prepped for a release sometime this year, hopefully!
@@mammothaudioengineering is your band on spotify?

You are a GOD man thankyou so much
God here: you are very welcome!
As always man this is so helpful. Thank you so much!
I'm glad it helped, Sergio! Thanks for hanging around!
Excellent stuff again. Really helping me out, cheers for the heads up of its release :)
Lee! I'm glad this tutorial was something you could profit from! Thank you so much for hanging around, man!
You are a gold mine. Amazing quality videos
That is so nice of you, your comment made my day. Thank you, my friend!
Best video ever on this topic. Thank you so much!
You are super welcome!
This beginner content is great and already improving my music so much, you’re an excellent teacher!
For some reason I only saw this now. Thank you so very much for your kind words!
good video I thought I was on hold with customer service with the background smooth jazz
Thank you for sticking around. The next agent will be available soon.
This is a perfect lesson, thank you so much, do you know what would be the efficient way to save them as samples to use in any time after I programmed them once ? In order to save time for future. Something like chord pads ? Thank you again, Idk why this doesn't have 100k views yet.
Hey there, thank you so much for the kind words!
Technically, I think exporting them as MIDI files might be your best bet. Drop them in a folder labeled "Fills" or something like that and just pull them into whatever session needs them.
That being said, once you're more used to programming, you will probably try to come up with parts that work for that exact transition. Just keep that in mind!
Just what I need, midi drums are holding me back, ive subscribed as these are great lessons, thanks.
I'm happy my lessons helped you on your way! Thank you for subscribing :)
@@mammothaudioengineering I really want to start getting good at writing drum parts, I've checked out some of your videos, they're very mate, really great stuff being covered.
@@deeforty thanks so much, man! Is there any topic you'd like to see me cover? I have a bit of time on my hands these days since I didn't book much for the studio.
Also, do you have a video on actually using the grid correctly? Like, copy and pasting, quantizing, changing just one limb of the drummer to a different drum ect? These are the things holding me back, aswell as the actual writing/creating, I just find it a really slow process and end up spending ages on something I'm never happy with, I use reaper and ez drummer 2, but I'm guessing all this info will cross over.
@@deeforty mh, I think the first video lesson about programming kind of covers the question about limbs and such. Basically, don't overthink it: one limb counts, one limb accents, the kick doubles the music rhythmically. Everything else is a variation.
Once you go more in depth, you can also use the hands to accentuate riffs or melodies with certain patterns. That's where your creativity comes in, really. This step I usually hold off until the song is structured out. I don't want to get lost in details when drums should simply be carrying the band.
If this answers your question somewhat, I'll make a more in depth video on my process!
man this is so helpful.
is there a way to get the piano roll to show the specific drums rather than midi notes, c1, c2 etc? i use logic with ez drummer but still figuring it out
I'm glad this helped you!
I don't think that is possible, unfortunately. As far as I know, only few DAWs have that drum map like Cubase.
@@mammothaudioengineering ah no worries man, thank you anyway!
Hey man, like the video a lot. I'm new here but I saw you do vocals as well. Your voice sounds pretty hoarse this video so was wondering if you were only a bit sick and, if not, wanted to be a gentle reminder to make sure to take care of your voice. Lots of love.
Thanks so much for liking the video! I appreciate it a lot :) I maaaaay have been horse or just speaking at a low volume. I do try to take care of my voice as much as I can. I really appreciate your kind words!! You are awesome. Again, thank you!!
@@mammothaudioengineering That's good to hear, have a great day :D
whats your headphones please tell me
These are in ear monitors custom made by Vision Ears!
Nice tutorial, but I'm not a Metal-head, I'm more Classic Rock, Blues & Jazz.
I hope you could still take away something from this!
I'm a beginner at programming drums.
I hope my video managed to help you, then!
