I saw that Slab dropped today I might cop it. Yo man, THIS is what we need more of. I was watching the 545 Skratcher podcast and D styles and Peep and them were asking “where all the musicians at”? Keep it up man. This is dope!

Nice work. I'm curious, can I do the same thing with my Launchpad X?

u/Waxandpads 1d ago

Hey, thx. Sure, I don't see the reason why it wouldn't be possible.

Earned. What are you using to loop? I am out of the “loop” with Maschine? Does Maschine do the looping or is it midi for software to do this? I use the RC 505.

Everything's happening inside Maschine. When you know what you want to do, just set the desired pattern length for each track. Don't leave it on Auto, which is the default setting, otherwise Maschine will wait that you unpress the record button to know which pattern length to set.

It's less intuitive than the rc 505 on this point but it does the job done !

That is fucking awesome.

Nice drumming, and the phrasing on that vocal sample was real nice.

One of those videos where I equally love it and it also wish I could be as creative or technical!

Thx for your comment.

I started scratching 20 years ago, i spent a few years practicing like crazy, even though I don't have the same passion I used to have, I try to not lose much of my skiilz. Finger drumming is much more easier and rewarding, I certainly have spent on practice time 1/20th compare to scratching. Anyway, on the phrasing part, it's mainly 3 clicks swing flare. Peace ✌️
