Wanna help give feedback on this programmed drum track?
It's not meant to be complex. It's a simple rendition of a cover tune we do. We're normally a trio, but we'll be doing a duo gig soon. I wanted to experiment with doing a few of the tunes with an MP3 drum track.
I know it's not great, but do you think it meets minimum requirements?
What do you think?

The fills were cool but that kick definitely got on my nerves after a while.
Just my $0.02 |

But, regardless, how does it sound?
1. Cool - very good
2. Good
3. Ok - just barely usable
4. Bad
5. You gotta be kidding

Otherwise if it fits the tune then go with it.

but, it could use some tambourine and a bit of police whistle...LOL
not bad for a basic track, IMO...
although, in addition to mixing up the pattern a little...(use ghost strokes to do that, BTW)...
you should consider a bit more use of dynamics, too...
but, all in all...a solid track... |

But, apparently not dramatically enough.
