 +Install Hydrogen from [[http://​slackbuilds.org]] or [[http://​studioware.org]].
  
 +=====Usage=====
 +
 +Hydrogen is intuitive whether or not you have ever used a hardware drum machine. The setup is common for software drum sequencing. Starting from the bottom, the drum sequencer itself is located in the bottom left. It is a "piano roll" style sequencer with the names of the drums in the current kit listed vertically, and each beat in a measure on the horizontal axis. Whatever you sequence in this panel becomes a **pattern**. You can have, for all practical purposes, as many patterns as you like.
 +
 +On the bottom right are instrument controls and your kit library.
 +
 +Across the top is the pattern editor, where you sequence which drum pattern is played throughout the course of your song.

 +===== Drum Kits =====
 +
 +Hydrogen drumkits are tar archives containing drum samples and a descriptive XML document. They are relatively trivial to make. The Hydrogen website hosts [[http://​hydrogen.popez.org/​hcms/​node/​16|extra drum kits]]. In addition to those, Slackermedia has created and released [[http://​slackermedia.info/​sprints/​multimediaSprint_v2/​|99 drum kits]] for free. The script written by Slackermedia to create kits is open source and is available at [[https://​gitlab.com/​genhydro/​genhydro]].
 +
 +Install new drum kits in the **Instruments** menu → **Import Library**.
