Freeware drum machine

[SisterAbdullahX]

I've been trawling the internet looking for a freeware drum machine that I could use for practicing. I'm after one that is easy to program, but still has some decent features. Anyone any thoughts?

I use leaf drums.

I think he said "freeware" as opposed to "shareware".

Yes, I should have checked. Sorry about that.

OK, well a plug for Hammerhead then, which IS freeware. Its not as subtle as Leaf drums though in that you can only programme in 1/16th beats at most. But if you don't need that level of sophistication it might do the trick.

On the same site there are links to other drum software apps too.
