    I am a 47 year old reggae bassplayer from the Netherlands. Till a couple of weeks ago i always thought producing myself was not my thing because most digital produced reggae didn't sound like real instruments, as a band and never really! touched the feeling of reggae. Till now. Think i am go to start👍

      @@DVDFRMN yes, I hear what you’re saying David. The intent of this pack is really a proof of concept. “Can authentic sounds come from samples?” I think I have proven yes. But I think this pack will be helpful for a simple bedding of rhythm, and to complete full songs, more elements will need to be added. I still think it’s a useful tool though, especially to those who don’t have access to a guitar. I think the OP here was just being kind and being encouraging to me.

    HI,
    nice to meet you Dm Kahn. :) Know that you did a wonderful job with this package of sampled samples coming from your real instruments!! Truly....my biggest compliments!!
    I also make REGGAE/DUB music and let's say I have been following it for more than 23 years now think....
    However, I would like to ask you something about the package....is there the possibility of playing notes?? Or can I just play the rhythm guitar chords like you showed in the video?? Because even for the organ it wouldn't be bad to play some notes as well as make the chords....which aren't bad, of course....

      Hi there, the intent of this pack is to create a foundation of the rhythm section with chords. If you need to add notes you can use another sound for that. If you can imagine; this is 3 instruments all packaged together in one pack. If I were to make a virtual instrument where you could play every note, they would be sold separately. Great question! Thanks for taking the time to spend with me and for supporting what I’m doing here. All the best and God Bless

      Wow! thanks for your support Dylan! I haven't tried transposing it, but in my limited experience with it, I think it would maybe work tuning down 1 note (maaaybe 2). I've heard transposing upward creates a less desireable sound. Try it out and let me know how it sounds! I'm hoping this is just the beginning and perhaps a detailed piano virtual instrument is in order! Cheers

    Sounds really great, and I'm so glad you finally got into building Kontakt instruments... but OH NO!!! It looks like you've done this in a recent version of Kontakt. I can't find the specs anywhere on this page or on the order page, but I am assuming from the mapping image that this is either Kontakt 7 or the last version of Kontakt 6. Unfortunately, I am stuck at Kontakt 6.5.3 for now and indefinitely at Kontakt 6.6.1 after I make my next OS upgrade in the coming months. Would love that organ--especially--since I generally like to do more stylistic things with my piano and rhythm guitar licks that I couldn't accomplish with these... but sadly, I'm guessing I can't use any of them for the time being. You should put the minimum Kontakt requirement on your product page, or you may end up with some unhappy customers.
    Not sure if you also turned those drums into a Kontakt instrument, since the last time I got a sample pack it was not in an instrument form. It would be good if you built the drum instrument as well and added it to the set, and of course the bass when you get that happening. It will make for a nice set that I'd love to be able to use one day. I would also strongly recommend and REQUEST that you also create a proper VI version of the piano and organ instruments that allow users to play lead lines and other rhythmic parts that could only be played by a user playing keys as properly laid out keys. The chords instruments will be very helpful and quite useful... but not having the ability to bang out leads and extra parts will indeed by an absence that will be missed, and some sort of substitutions with another VI will then be necessary.
    But good stuff you have here. I wish I had a studio with your drum kit, piano, organ and bass amp all miced and ready to go. Those all sound incredible.

      @DMKahn  10 месяцев назад +1

      Yes I will update the one drop pack in the near future to work on Kontakt too. I might be able to get it working in Kontakt 5.5 as well. We shall see… but grab the Riddim pack and try it out . you’re good on 6.5.3 bro 🙏 nothing wrong with adding Melodie’s from a different VST. These tones are a wonderful bed for the rhythm section. 🤙🏼

      @@DMKahn-- Fantastic news sir. That means I'm in! I trust I have until the beginning of the month for the intro price since my other Black Friday expenses have limited my spendings until the next paycheque comes in. That's so weird that you have a mapping colour scheme under the hood that I have never seen before. I just assumed it was probably the new look of Kontakt 7. You are right that I can use another VST for my organ lead lines, and I will play real guitar to get my Bingy Bunny style intricacies in the rhythm guitar part, but I would really really love to have a version of that piano in regular keyboard format for adding the more specialized little riffs and stylings that I would like to add with the piano. It's a great sounding piano, so I really urge you to put together a full keyboard instrument. It doesn't have to have more than 2 velocities and 2 round robins. Maybe even no round robins... just a basic keyboard so we can customize the piano track with the exact same piano sound!
      I'm excited about your organ and rhythm guitar instruments because that's going to make it so easy to lay down the bubble and chunk tracks right from the start and will make it more fun to work on the song. I'm also going to find myself playing certain organ bits that I wouldn't do with a non-chord instrument so it will add to the variety of organ licks on my track, which is cool. Same with the piano. Nice work!

    • @zedxxx9
      @zedxxx9 10 месяцев назад

      But I'm thinking a lot about this and I'm concerned about the chords in the key of A thing. This collection seems great for coming up with new rhythms and is certainly worth having for banging out new song ideas... but in my case I have so many existing songs in different keys and many which modulate to another key within the song. I'm looking at the specs and supposing that it **isn't** often going to be so easy to lay down an organ or piano with this pack onto my existing songs without a lot of head scratching and adjusting the tuning in Kontakt, and using multiple instances, etc. This probably isn't a quick fix for me in quickly laying down bubble organ tracks in songs that already exist unless they are very simple progressions. I still want it, but I can't fool myself into thinking this is going to solve more problems than it is going to create in my particular situation. On the other hand, it would help me bang out brand new song ideas very quickly... so I still want to support you and take advantage of what this can offer me in the context of creating new songs. I have to see this as more of a Reggae inspiration kit rather than a Reggae fix-it kit.
