hi guys,

I was just wondering if i could use my midi keyboard to play the pads on the drum rack on ableton? I haven't got an actual drum pad/machine atm so i make all my drums pattern using the the rack on abletob. I know you can use the midi keyboard to play melodies into ableton but what about using the midi keyboard keys to play drum pattens? Haha, sorry if it sounds stupid...l just thought of it randomly

Thanks!
