Can any mac users please recommend me a software drum machine that fulfills these requirements:
shareware/freeware, runs on mac OS 9, works with default ibook sound card.
It should also preferably be: Able to load samples, Fairly small in size (I'll have to split it up across several floppy discs, so 20mb+ is out of the question really...),
Keyboard (as in, the ibook's QWERTY keyboard) controllable.
I know it's a lot to ask for, but if such a program exists, please let me know, linking to it if possible.
Many thanks, Ceri

You swine! I was hoping this would be Zeus or another mac user with the answer to my prayers!
I've basically decided to use my ibook as a drum machine on the 3rd channel of my mixer (I did it with a PC with Ableton Live as a sampler last time I played live and now want to be able to do something similair at home) as I can't afford an MC-303 at the moment.

Looks nice- but notice I said, "I can't afford an MC-303 at the moment" - doesn't that make it obvious I can't afford over £1000 for their one?! ;-)

Oh yes, another requirement for the mac drum machine- it needs to be a standalone package...

I hope the Elektron Monomachine has some of the Machinedrum capabilities. It might actually sway me away from the Clavia G2 Modular. We'll see. Elektron have their offices not too far from my place so I'll have to ask them if a demonstration is in order :)
The Monomachine looks fucking sweet. The whole design says experimental music.

Cheers for the bump I'd forgotten to check this thread...
Portland:
Yesterday I spent about an hour on that site (and a further 1/2 hour this morning) and whilst the CM-505 looks ideal, these are the only files relating to it that I can find:
07/24/2002 01:19PM Directory cm505 drum grooves 07/24/2002 01:18PM Directory cm505 presets 05/13/2002 12:41PM Directory mp3
None of which is the actual program ;-(

Thanks Zeus- I've just emailed them asking if it's available from the website, if the answer is no, I'll mail you in a couple of days. Thanks for your help!

cm505 is well good fun. nice for the quinolline yellow type grooves. i've found that the sr202 is rather unstable on macos9 ..

Can you confirm that it works as a standalone? I can just run it alone and it'll work?
