Handy Grooves: Cymbal loops you can actually use

We created these cymbal beats to serve you, the songwriter, musician, producer.

 

They will provide solid time-keeping while staying out of the way. Whether you want to settle for the simplest of the simple cymbal grooves or require something more vigorous, this cymbal groove collection is all you need.

 

Let these ride cymbal loops provide the groove and space your music needs to breathe.

They snap together beautifully, particularly when you meld
the appropriate genre-flavoured grooves with their respective kits.

The grooves are very usable, the MIDI obviously editable,
and the price pretty modest given what’s on offer.

SOUND ON SOUND

Human Feel

Zoomed in view of midi note off grid indicating human feel

We, drummers, shift the timing of subdivisions and beats ever slightly when we play. The best among us do so in a highly consistent way, providing the music with the groove and “feel good.”

 

Although they are MIDI cymbal loops, they will provide your music the groove it needs to feel good.

Expertly Edited And Programmed

Expertly Edited And Programmed

Quite often what we play on e-drums doesn’t translate well to what we expect to hear back. However, all that matters is the sound of end results.

 

Careful editing and additional programming are necessary to bring the intention to reality.

 

These MIDI cymbal beats are clean, loop seamlessly, and sound the way you expect an acoustic ride cymbal to sound when played by an experienced professional drummer.

Micro-Dynamics

Demonstration of dynamics of midi files

Much like the way we speak, soft and loud notes played on a cymbal make the groove “speak.” Soft notes provide subliminal groove flow, while the louder ones accentuate the rhythm.

 

Our cymbal midi loops are a blend of the all-important realistic dynamics and articulations to convey the natural performance.

“In the Pocket”

“In the Pocket”

A tasteful blend of natural feel with consistent timing, microdynamics, and articulations provide for an “in the pocket” cymbal beat. Drummers spend years perfecting such combinations.

 

Although nothing beats a great drummer driving a cymbal groove, we did our best to decipher as much of that essence as possible into our cymbal loops and your music.

Practical time-saver

Save time programming by starting with one or a few of our cymbal loops. Put together new cymbal beats by combining some of these.

 

Taking advantage of the main beat, dynamics, and feel already in place, tweak them to your heart’s desires. Customize them by muting notes, swapping cymbals, changing articulations, or even drum kits while preserving the original elements.

Perfect Companions

Pair the Handy Grooves CYMBAL BEATS loops with award-winning Handy Drums plugins, our ultra-realistic sampled drum, and cymbal kits to make your MIDI cymbal loops sound realistic.

 

The MIDI loops come with an installer that offers seamless integration with Handy Drums. The loops are instantly accessible within Handy Drums’ MIDI Loop Browser.

 

Handy Drums and Handy Grooves is a perfect pairing for the singer-songwriter, musician, or producer who wants to get a professional-sounding drum track up and grooving.

With sound varieties abound, you are set to find the cymbals that blend right into your music. While our loops conform to GM drum mapping wherever practical, they were created as the perfect accompaniment to our virtual instruments.
