    HIt record and start recording, it is already blank if you have not dragged a midi file.

    Best is to buy a cheap midi,usb kybd or use a E drum kit .
    Macs have a function that turns the Computer keys into a mini kybd too.

    Another method that might work is to enter the Tap2Find feature and start adding your hits. Each time you get things to a certain point you know you like, drag the pattern to the midi drop zone (essentially saving it), then keep adding parts until you have something you like.

    Unless I’m not getting what you’re looking for, I think this should work for you.

    Going into EZD2, I tally thought I would only use grooves I constructed entirely myself. I quickly found, however, that many of the suggested grooves that EZD2 suggested for me had lots of aspects that I wanted to use, so I just copied a given groove and pasted only the parts that I liked into a pattern I started from scratch. This has proven to be a great time saver and has even given me some cool results I might not have come up with in my own.

    they thanks guys for the suggestions.

    I’m not very good at tapping with the mouse so I don’t get the best results.

    I’m been thinking about a midi keyboard. I find I’m recording a lot of my own hits onto blank grooves using the mouse as I mentioned not the best results and very time consuming.

    How can I use my Mac as a mini keyboard midi device?

    thanks

    Sorry, I think this was dropped in Newer OS releases so may not work from Snow Leopard upwards,
    The same finger drumming technique used is quite intuitive so i would get a mini keyboard and be grooving real quick.You would never look back.
