About DrumTrack

DrumTrack is an open-source (free) drum machine that runs on the Windows operating system. Drum scores/songs are created using audio samples of drum hits, which are arranged into patterns and complete scores.

DrumTrack's files and other resources are hosted at sourceforge.net. Visit the drumtrack project page at sourceforge.net for more details.
