    Yes there is!

    But you have to search for it in Google or so… Sorry I can’t remember the name/address right now… But, search using words like “midi drums” or so… I got tons of free midi drums from that site a long time ago with bands like you’ve mentioned.

    1) The first problem (for me anyway!) is that they might differ in quality sometimes and you sometimes need to correct them in the piano-roll window and move certsain drum parts to its correct “sound”. 2) Second problem is that they only play exactly like the tempo (BPM) you set in your DAW (but that’s very machine-like) but you could change that if you know how to do work with midi)… For “backing track” that’s totally okay though… For “demo’ing covers” that would probably be okay too…

    But for a more professional cover song you really want to play more exacly like the original tempo (which kind of moves up and down between bars all the time since it was played live by a human drummer) which is never like a 100% “machine-like” tempo…

    Thus, nowadays I prefer making my own drum patterns to a cover song. Basically using my EZdrummer 2 libraries (I have lots of those!). But first I manually create a “Tempo Track” within my DAW (Cubase 9.5 pro) using a Midi controller, etc. So then I have a “near perfect tempo” to start out from, Before adding my drum patterns… However, this takes a long time to get everything right, but sounds better in the end result (to me anyway!).

    /Regards from Robin
