Anybody have a good source for midi drum fills. I am not a drummer and the
fills I create on my keyboard are passable but I could use some canned fills
to expand my vocabulary. It's also very time consuming for me.

I have some from smart loops which are good. I am NOT a fan of fill in
drummer. Any drummers out there with some great fills they want to share?
Any sources I have yet to uncover?

Thanks,

Neil R

There's a good selection here of midi drum beats. Must be some fills in
there somewhere. :-)

How about sitting down with some records that feature drumming that's
attractive to you, and replicating some of the fills you like. If you
do it beforehand, you could work up a collection of them for later use,
and you might learn how to get inside the drummer's mindset better
which could improve your drum tracks in general.

It takes a little digging around, but the fills are there...as well as some
great drum parts you might like. Most are free or close to it.
