- If you want MDrummer to play notes, use MIDI channel 10 or switch to drum pad mode.
- To use MDrummer's rhythm engine you can use the MIDI command system or the integrated song sequencer.
- Use the integrated help system using F1 and check out MDrummer tutorial videos.
- There are multiple plugins and maybe a standalong application, which one should I use?

useful to generate base rhythms for example.
Mingle many mode generates many loops of the same type the same way mingle mode works. It is useful for example to
generate complicated break beat rhythms.
Import/Export button
Import/Export button shows a menu with additional rhythm edit functions, most of them are providing several import & export features.
Load track to all loops (of current type) lets you choose a track pattern and drum type and adds that track to all loops in the rhythm (or
just those of the current type). This is an alternative to merging a background percussion rhythm and is useful, because preparing a track file
is very simple unlike preparing background percussion rhythms.
Smart MIDI import lets you analyze a MIDI track, quantize and fix various timing and velocity problems and generate and save loops from it.
It is handy when preparing loop collections.
Batch MIDI import lets you import a whole MIDI loop collection.
Load/Save multiple loops can load/save a whole directory of loops.
Smart MIDI import
Smart MIDI import is the most advanced way to import MID files used for whole tracks. It loads a MIDI file, cuts it into
separate loops of length you specify,calibrates velocities, detects flams and other properties, quantizes the loops using 2
cooperating quantizers and puts the loops into appropriate loop-boxes.
It is mostly used to generate loop collections from recorded tracks. For example you let a drummer play many rock
breaks in a row, record it as MIDI and use this function to process the entire track generating the loops from it applying all
necessary processing automatically.
