General settings panel
General settings panel contains additional settings that apply to the rhythm as whole and mainly to generated beats.
Merge base rhythm
Merge base rhythm makes MDrummer use the base rhythm to generate target loops. You will probably leave this on.
Use straight loops
Use straight loops makes MDrummer use straight loops when generating breaks, intros and outros. If you are creating a
shuffled rhythm, you will probably turn this off and enable use shuffled loops.
Fill base rhythm boxes only
Fill base rhythm boxes only makes MDrummer ignore Beat loop boxes and then the generated rhythm will contain beats in
exactly same loop boxes as the base rhythm. This means that generated rhythm somehow extends loops existing in base
rhythm, but no more beat loops would be added.
Use shuffled loops
Use shuffled loops makes MDrummer use shuffled loops when generating breaks, intros and outros. If you are creating
straight rhythm, you will probably turn this off and enable use straight loops.

Merge base rhythm
Merge base rhythm makes the generator use the base rhythm to generate target loops. Loops from the base rhythm will be
used for background in the target loops. You will probably leave this on.
