Awesome / approachable / helpful tutorial!

ill confess - I had not bothered to learn proper finger drum technique and just did my thing, but Mad Zach’s tutorial broke the ice! This makes learning drumming simple/ approachable - and also compelling to where it feels more fun than work! Already seeing better results too (to no surprise)!

It's adequate

I wish it went into even a bit more depth but everyone's style is going to be different so who knows. Great soundpacks make it definitely worth the money.

Great tutorial

Some of the instruction seemed a little rushed when it felt like it needed more time. Esp some of the clip settings in sampler. Otherwise I learned a TON overall.
