MIDI Drumbeats assignment

We will be using a handout to complete the MIDI drumbeat assignment where we will use the MIDI keyboard to record the sounds of a drum kit playing a variety of styles of drum beats.

Objectives:

• To learn to read rhythms and understand beat division
• To learn to count and play rhythms accurately
• To learn the MIDI drum map
• To learn to record multiple parts in one MIDI track
• To learn to label recording regions

Instructions:

1. Practice reading rhythms and clapping together as a class. 
2. Use the Drumbeats Assignment handout and read instructions. 
3. Make sure each of your recorded rhythms are two bars long and follow each other in the same Virtual Instrument track.
4. Label each two bar "region" with the name of the drum beat from the handout.

Final Project should sound like this.
