Once you have selected a patch this way, you can step between the
patches in the same folder, by clicking the up and down arrow but-
tons next to the patch display.
Alternatively, you can right-click in the patch name display to bring up a con-
text menu with all the patches in the folder.
It’s possible to play the drum machine device via MIDI in the same way, but let’s
try creating a pattern with the built-in pattern sequencer instead:
14. Click the folder button in the lower left corner of the Redrum panel.
This opens the patch browser for the drum machine, allowing you to select a
Redrum patch (a drum kit). Note that there are folder buttons for each drum
sound channel too - these let you add drum samples one by one and create
your own drum kits.
15. Select a Redrum patch in the same way as you selected a Subtrac-
tor patch.
The patches are located in category folders within the folder “Redrum Drum
Kits” in the Reason Factory Sound Bank.
When you have selected a patch, you will note that a sample file name is dis-
played at the top of each drum sound channel in the drum machine. There may
also be different parameter settings for the different drum sounds - all these set-
tings are part of a Redrum patch.
16. Try out the drum sounds by clicking the audition buttons at the top
of each drum sound channel.
Now, let’s start building a pattern. By default, the empty patterns have sixteen
steps, with each step corresponding to a sixteenth note (so that the length of a
pattern is one 4/4 bar). To make things simple, we’ll keep this setting for now.
