<h2>Installing BEATS</h2>
<p>Run the following from the command line:</p>
<p><code><pre class="single-line">sudo gem install beats</pre></code></p>
<p>This will download BEATS from <a href="http://rubygems.org/gems/beats">rubygems.org</a> and add a <code>beats</code> command to your path.</p>
<p>The current version of BEATS is 1.2.1. If you have an older version, you can update with this:</p>
<p><code><pre class="single-line">sudo gem update beats</pre></code></p>
<p>Not sure what version you have? Run <code>beats -v</code>.</p>

<h2>Drum Sounds</h2>
<p>BEATS is not terribly useful unless you have drum sounds to use with it. You can use many 8 and 16-bit wave files as drum sounds. Here are a few collections of sounds to help you get started:</p>
<ul>
<li id="drumkit-hammerhead" class="drumkit">
<h3><a href="/hammerhead_drum_sounds.zip">Hammerhead</a></h3>
<p>371 sounds extracted from various <a href="http://www.threechords.com/hammerhead/introduction.shtml">Hammerhead</a> sound banks using <a href="https://github.com/jstrait/clawhammer">Clawhammer</a>.</p>
