House Drums On Any Drum Machine Techniques

Подробнее о видео

Today I’m going to take you through my easy workflow of making House drums on “any sampler or drum machine” and I’ll show this by doing it on 3 different machines with different limitations. We'll be using the PO-12 (Pocket Operator Rhythm) 1010Music Blackbox, and the Elektron Digitakt. I’ll create 3 different patterns in total and hopefully spark up some ideas that you can apply to your drums, all of this is doable in software too by the way so have at it!…
Not only does this make great practice but it's also a way to productively procrastinate by setting the bar lower to getting something done creatively, while making something you can use later! A lot of my best tracks started this way…
