Stupid question of the day: Where do the drums come from?

Snoogles

Cranky-dologist
people post guitar videos, and its obvious that there's no live drummer. and its not like they had recorded a drummer in a studio, and then recorded the guitar track.
i would post an example, but i cant think of one right now
are people using drum machines?
are they computer programs?

Not at all a stupid question in my opinion

...and I wish I could answer it adequately:doh:

Far as I can tell though; software drum machines / drum plugins for the most part although I´m sure some use actual drums / drum machines to record rythms for backing tracks.
 
Re: Stupid question of the day: Where do the drums come from?

Like backing tracks? Otherwise, double tracking. I play drums well enough to create my own backing tracks for a lot of the guitar videos I do, I just don't do it because then I might as well be making a multi-part cover video. Programmed drums are easier to do these days as well.

If they're cover songs, they probably got the actual master drum track from the original song from Guitar Hero/Rock Band. With those games, the dynamics of the game requires each instrument to have it's own audio, so people worked out how to reverse engineer it to get original master tracks.

I can play them, but simply draw my own in flstudio with plugins.
