I'd love to see more additions to this - the Steely Dan one is a gem.

It was.
Ralph, if you read this, is there an easy way for you to create a section for us to start capturing these rhythm re-creation settings?

I'll see what we can do. I'm hesitant to do a whole forum for this. Maybe just make it a sticky thread for now?

A sticky would be excellent

This would be a popular thread, if people did it. I have some drum beats done of popular songs, (mainly older ones), and mainly just the main riff for the drums, not the entire song. Did anybody come up with a format, on what to post?.. or is this a dead thread now..lol

The thread's been pretty inactive for a while, but I still think it's a noble idea.
I'm currently on three weeks holiday, so I'll have some time to focus on some classic rhythms and post them - as bad as my attempts may be.
And now that I have Jamcussion, the first track I'll aim for is "Sympathy for the Devil".
Although I have to say this - Ralph, do you have any suggestions on how to do that particular track?

I have no quick suggestions, would have to spend time with it.

Yes, it's a tricky one. I'll give it a shot this week.

I'm here to resurrect this thread a year later. I just got some tips from Ralph on how to make a groove in the style of The Roots that I wanted to share here. This stuff isn't trivial to me so it would be fantastic for everyone to post their tips on recreating grooves.
[quote=0, medium=30, funky=62, BIAS=42
in 'Auto Snare', set max power all the way right to force the crossticking
Experiment with the medium, funky and BIAS settings in the 'Kick' to change things up a bit.[/quote]

Here's another excellent groove by Ralph. This one will have Jamstix sounding like an early 70s soul drummer!
[quote=0 medium=max funky=0 and bias 45%
- set 'Hihat E' to middle position
- extract '16th Kick' from '16th Rock' and set BIAS=-32 and amount=100%
- load James Stix and set throw-ins in accents to 40% or more[/quote]
