MIDI Hand Drum Rhythm Generator

Midi Hand Drum Rhythm Generator :

This will only work if you have a browser which will play standard midi files

Fill in the rhythm section with the strikes. Use the key below. For instance for the rhythm "Beledi" fill in:

D-D-tkT-D-tkT—

Be sure to pad the end of the rhythm out to the correct count — Use spaces or dashes or underscores as padding characters.

You can copy and paste the rhythms from the notation on my rhythms page.

This uses standard MIDI instruments for the drum sounds — so they aren’t the greatest sounding (they don’t sound like a dumbec), but you should at least be able to hear the rhythm. In particular the accent sounds (Slap, Pop) are really bad on most cards….

Rhythm Key:

  • D Dum (right hand clear low tone)
  • T - Tek (right hand high crisp tone)
  • G - Grab (or Stop — deadened, usually right hand)
  • K - Ka (left hand, sounds like Tek)
  • P - Pop (Ka while deadening head w/ other hand)
  • S - Slap
  • m - Alternate "Dum" (left hand low tone often muffled)
  • Use capitals for accented strikes

Most cultures have some type of frame drum; the Egyptian Riq, the Brazilian pandeiro, the kanjira from south India, the middle eastern tar and bendir ,and the native American versions are but a few of the available frame drums. Of course, the frame drum most Westerners are familiar with is the good old tamborine. ( Frame drum central )
