What is a jam? A MIDI drum jam is a 32-bar drum groove that you can use as a starting point for a tune, practise other instruments to or simply play along with, whether you are a guitarist, keyboard player, bassist, songwriter or whatever.

Just like all of our grooves, our free jams are arranged and mapped for Toontrack EZdrummer, Superior Drummer, XLN Audio Addictive Drums, Steven Slate Drums, Sonic Reality I-Map and of course General MIDI. Some of them also include Logic Drummer, Native Instruments Studio Drummer & Abbey Roads Series.
