World Beats MIDI Loops

Groove Monkee is awesome. I started using their midi files as a starting point a few years ago, customizing for the project, and they gradually replaced my Octapad. Sometimes, I need to do very little to make it fit, and my listeners say they can’t tell that I’m not using a “real” drummer. World Beats fills in a gap for me personally as I love these types of rhythms but have always struggled to create them. I was very happy when I heard the variety of grooves and fills, and it didn’t take me long to find something that worked for a project with a latin type feel.

There is not a lot I can say about this drum MIDI pack yet, as I have only skimmed through the included drum grooves without yet having used them in any music project. The quality and variety are good, and I am very glad to have some non-standard drum patterns that offer a very different feel for me to choose from when a song or arrangement needs something different.

Loops are very musical. I'm Brazilian and I think that the brazilian grooves that are inside this package were really made for someone who understands our music. Excellent material.

Great midis.

While I am mostly a rock and blues person, I like to explore other beats. Tube Snake Boogie, Sympathy For the Devil. Take a world beat, swap the power hand to a Tom. Cool stuff with a 1-4-5. There are lots of styles. Good price for quality grooves.

Great value and a truly inspirational pack of clips and loops. Whether you use it as the starting point of a beat or to map out the rhythm of an entire composition, World Beat Midi Loops is smart buy that's easy to use and customise.

Groove Monkee midi drum packs (used in superior D3) SLAM!!!

Easy to Load and easy to use in EZ Drummer 3 Works great with Latin and Reggae Expansions!

Nice collection of varied MIDI loops. Lots of options for different Drum Samplers. Great price!

GREAT products! Good usable patterns that are not too "busy". I've used them in several productions already. Works great with Groove Agent!

The loops are played and recorded exceptionally well. They are very useful and have helped me with songs and their arrangements.

Pretty good A lot of interesting world beats that can be easily used in world music. I was actually expecting more variation, for me particularly the merengue rhythms which I was hoping for more of. Overall pretty good but some didn't feel to encapsulate the excitement of particular rhythms.

World beats rrview Great midi pack. Wonderful best grooves. Very good quality. Also great formats and mappings. Highly recommended.

World Beats The World Beats MIDI pack is a nice and varied collection of grooves. I like using beats intended for percussion kits (such as Toontrack's Latin or Action! EZXs) on regular drum kits; it can result in some fun, unconventional grooves.

World Beats MIDI Loops I especially love this compilation of drum midi grooves, because of its many variations in styles. In addition to that, it is a large library, with so much to choose from. Thank you Groove Monkey...You did it again!

Cool Cool

Perfect. Great value. Just what I was looking for.

Good Loops! This is a solid collection of world beat loops. I've already used them in a few projects, and they are spot on for the style.

Great to use Helps me trigger creative ideas

Happy with GrooveMonkey I already work with plenty of GM-drum files and I'm very glad about them. And I'll hold on!

Never fail to please. If they've got your genre then buy them. Worth every penny and they've got so many formats covered makes them easy to use.

EZdrummer2 I got the world music pack and a rock pack The world music had the Bossa Nova beats I was looking for. Well played. I'm satisfied!

World Beats Good!!

Very good drum track! Always excellent. Groove Monkee is always appropriate. They are never over baked or too busy and sound like a real drummer.

Nice! Nicely played world grooves. I like african ones the most, but I've been using a lot of samba grooves on my latest projekt. Highly recommended!

Mind Expansion Great stuff! I got a little bit bored with this standard 4/4 "boom-tschak, ba-boom tschak" thing all the time. These beats really help to broaden your horizon. In general, the beats are not too busy and therefore it's fun to work with them. Thank you

Great Libraries with Authentic Sound They simply sound like they were don by a professional drummer. Really make my tracks sound ‘alive’. Great loops.

Lots on offer here Lots of different beats available in a variety of styles although some are pretty similar and nothing overly complex but would work well to layer over more 'conventional' rhythms I think to make it a bit more interesting for a listener.

Please make merengue rythms compatible Please make merengue rythms compatible with beatbuddy!!!

ballads integrates well with superior drummer 3. sounds great

Great drum loops in any style. JK - Sweden

World Loops An excellent selection of world rhythms to satisfy the most demanding producer.

Awesome ! It's very useful for the study of world rhythm.

World Beats midi loops Love the feel of the loops I’ve used so far.

disappointing i'm disappointed. i bought these mainly for the percussion and it turns out to be all general midi (no heel, tip, muffled hits etc). I suppose they're useful in the groove pool since they're not quantized

Excellent resource for creative music writing These midi drum loops help me to quickly put musical ideas together without having to worry to much about the drums. I would like to see a load more reggae files in future but all the ones I have ordered are very good.

WORLD BEATS Very solid all usable... can't miss.

Add a little spice Fun stuff! I use it with Addictive Drums 2

Excellent and easy to use loops Excellent and easy to use loops With the integration into EzDrummer. It helps to construct very quickly a drum song so I don’t loose my inspiration when writing new songs

great loops i couldn't find any decent bossa nova or reggae midi grooves, everything out there is rock, so it was great to find this collection, i will use it a lot

Professional work for professionals Thanks Groove Monkee your help is of immense value to musicians. Keep doing what you are doing.

Good Stuff I bought this to use with EZ Drummer/Superior Drummer. The tracks all match up well with the sounds on that platform and have opened up the possibilities. I like EZ Drummer but was not impressed with its midi grooves.

Great beats! I had a reggae music in mind, and in no time, I found a great beat that inspired me. Keep up the good work!!

World Beats MIDI They are just fine

Finally world Beats Loops Works flawlessly , installs itself in EZ Drummer without problem. Great product !

So far, I have several So far, I have several of the GroovMonkey midi drum packs. I find them WAY more interesting than the ones from ToonTrack, of which I have most of. The are more varying and sound more like a real drummer. They are not quantized, but they always line up perfectly with a click track. I can't say enough good about them. The monkey rocks! I uses them in ToonTrack Superior 3.

World Beats MIDI Drum Loops Useful, accurate and inspiring!

Your grooves are very good. Your grooves are very good. I would be very happy if you had for sale BFD Expansions Best Regards Carlos

World Beats MIDI Drum Loops - Download I'm doing a folk based recording right now and wanted some appropriate loops for inspiration and a starting point. The World Beats Loops are great. There is a lot of variety and sound excellent. I'm using them with Pro Tools and EZDrummer. Easy install and fun to use - well worth the $20.00.

Good but Could be Better This product contains some good solid World beats but the problem is that there are too few of them. Within a particular style, Samba for example, it would be nice to have a larger variety of basic beats than the few provided. Add more variations and this would be a 5 star product.

Good grooves Good grooves

Groovy authentic Grooves that work inuse them for much more than just drum tracksnin my compositions

World Beats We are extremely happy with our purchase of world beats as always Groove Monkee has pulled through with another Awesome product. We will keep coming back as the quality of these midi tracks and the installer capabilities make these midi files an Industry standard. Thanks Groove Monkee Rob and MJ Green

World beats Installed into EZDrummer effortlessly. Great sounding tracks!

Great for what it is World Beats MIDI offers a ton of useful grooves when you want to go off the beaten path. I'd hoped for more odd beats like 7/4, but it is what it is. I'll find plenty of other uses for this package.

Love/Hate I have always loved your files. I used a lot of them back when they were audio loops. I use midi now with Abbey Road and Session Drummer. As I needed to get the project done, I had to audition the files by dragging them into the sequence, listening, then keeping or deleting. The reason for this is that the explanation of how to get them into Kontakt was week and didn’t work. It took three emails until I got a nice a video which demonstrated what to do and got it to work. I need to spend my time making music, not figuring out technology. This is why I stopped using you guys long ago. At least now I can continue using your product, as the files are well put together!!!

World Beats MIDI Drum Loops I was looking for the right grooves and drum fills for this tune, and I found exactly what I needed in the groovemonkee World Beat and Fusion libraries. You can hear these loops played on an EZDrummer2 kit in the tune “Sonata Farm” at this link: http://www.jvsax.com/john-vaillancourt-composer

No complaints Great stuff, if you're looking for something different. Applicable outside the specific genres.

World Beats, A World of MIDI! Thanks for this straight forward and useable collection. Worth the price and came through for me on my latest project just in time. I'll be checking back again.

drum clips Everything is working fine. Easy to use and load. Maybe there should be more "Santana" style loops in your assortment. Lack of that is only drawback. I use Sonar Producers Edition with these loops.

great customer service great customer service, very friendly and polite. highly recommended.

World Beats MIDI Drum Loops Nice Midi Pack !! Thank you

Sounds great with 70's drummer! There is a good variety of styles. E.g. Chacha, rumba, samba,

Great selection - great value After searching for some decent Latin American drum patterns I found this site. The selection of patterns is great and there are plenty of install options. I use EZdrummer, Sibelius and Cubase. The price is good too.

Great Grooves Sounds very natural and human. Easy to work with. I use it with EX DRUMMER 2 and Sonar.

great drums Love it!

Groove Monkey Jazz Impressed with the variations of the beats. Very authentic sound.

World Beats MIDI Drum Loops A great selection in a wide variety of styles and grooves. Can be easily dropped into an existing track or used for inspiration. I use BFD and can make some really interesting kits using these grooves. Highest marks!

Good, but... There are very great loops, however, there are some failed attempts too. E.g., I couldn't find a fair brazilian "Baiao" groove.

Nice job on the World Beat loops. They work out well both as a drag and drop in REAPER, and as MIDI files in BFD Eco.

Music Producer Great Product!! Works excellent with EzDrummer and also as "Copy & Paste" option with your Music Software (I use Sonar) .... Thank you!

BeatBuddy compatible Great World Grooves and compatible with BeatBuddy

love it love it having fun making new tracks
