What's a good drum program?

[apj]

I'm hoping to find one that's quite easy to use as well as being flexible to changing time signatures during songs. I do have garage band, although it does have loops, creating your own drums it's quite painstaking, wondering if there was something easier

I use BFD. Great sounds and pretty easy to use. You can program your own beats or use pre made beats to get some inspiration.

I like ezd - like any midi drum thingy, you just change the time in your DAW.

fruity loops was fun, but the one I had didn't seem to be able to change time within a song; they've probably worked that bug out by now.

With ezd I'm assuming you can then import that into garageband? I'm also using a mac so compatible applications only would be appreciated

I think Addictive Drums is worth a look too.

EZD is great, especially the other plugins like DKFH, Cocktail and what not.

Also has pre-made tracks that you can pull up and edit to add other drums/sounds. Cubase works with it, anything that loads VSTi's work with it. I got it a few weeks ago and have been having a ball.

yeah, the only downfall is GBs midi editor ain't too fun to work with, but maybe I wasn't doing something right. once I began using it with logic (express) I never went back to GB, and found it much easier to program/edit hits.
