This Preset is the verse groove from Rosanna by Toto.

It was created as follows:

  1. I entered straight 8ths for Met 1 and added a single R (set to hi-hat) for the sound.
  2. On the Accents/Swing page I set the swing to Triplet Swing. I entered “> _” so the 1/4 note would be accented.
  3. I entered 2 bars of 8th note triplets in Met 2.
  4. On the Change Sounds page I programmed the kick part on the bottom line.
  5. I programmed the snare back beat and ghost notes on the top line. I used the H button for the ghost notes by setting the sound to Snare and swiping down on the button to lower the volume.
  6. Finally I added accents to Met 2 – I accented the Kick and Snare notes (apart from the last kick in bar 2)
