Expanded Groove MIDI Dataset

The Expanded Groove MIDI Dataset (E-GMD), a large dataset of human drum performances, with audio recordings annotated in MIDI. E-GMD contains 444 hours of audio from 43 drum kits and is an order of magnitude larger than similar datasets. It is also the first human-performed drum dataset with annotations of velocity.
