I want to know more about your set ups :) Which elements you have in your cajon kit?? Please comment here!
Hello. Well, to be honest I kept my cajon real without any add-ups for years. Cuban style, you know. Had a blast for over a decade but never felt as confortable as behind my drumset. I now snare my cajon up a bit more often and put some cabasa on the side. Bass boosting it with a tube too. But this video of yours is a game changer ! I'm aiming for a drum/cajon kit with cymbals because of you, almost the same as you did in your last example (plus a floor tom, maybe). Musically versatile and easy-travelling set. I'll see the results in a few weeks/months. Hybriding cajon and drums seem obvious but sometimes all we need is a little push. This video was definitely made for it. Thanks again. Keep on going!
So I built a pretty similar kit to this, now that I finished it I love the flexibility and different possibilities of how I play it. Buuut I’ve run into a real problem with the kick pedal (I have the same direct drive Meinl one you use). I really like the feel of the pedal but I can’t get it to stay in place. No matter how tightly I clamp it to the bar that goes under the cajon it still drifts loose after about a minute of playing. Any tricks to solving this you’ve learned?
I'm in a 2 piece acoustic band. I've come to LOVE my cajon kit, which has evolved over the years.
- Gon Bops, El Toro all black Cajon (string snare, great bass / snare separation)
- ChromaCast Pro direct drive cajon pedal (I modified to make straighter - awesome, no lag)
- Vater cajon brush in left hand to strike cajon for snare sound
- Promark Hot-Rods in right hand to get the ping cymbal sounds
- 2002 17" Paiste thin crash (rideable/crashable)
- 10" Dream splash cymbals as hi-hats
- DW 5000 2-leg hi hat stand (foot space is everything)
- Shure Super 55 mic (vocal)
- Shure BETA 52A Kick Drum Microphone (for cajon back hole)
- Gravity mic boom stand (heavy to support heavy mic on boom)
- LP Matador bongos w/ LP stand
- Extra thick, homemade cajon seat cushion (no-sew tie velour cover) with rubber non-slip bottom
- Tambourine, shakers, cowbell, and chimes (as needed)
Great gear! This is great because it gives you ideas of new sounds and I'm sure you can incorporate these sound to your project. This is why I love cajon kits :) Thanks for sharing.
That ride sounds fantastic
This is the video I was waiting for! Thanks Felipe for this valuable information. Just as an additional note for our community: You can leave the sticks and the shaker in certain sections of the song and play the cajon the traditional way, so you don't lose the essence of the instrument. Cheers!
Good point Horacio! You can always come back to the cajon 😉 It’s important to have this in mind, cheers my friend!
Wonderful examples bredren 👍🏾
Thanks for sharing 🙏🏾
So cool man! Just got a cheap Cajon and this looks fantastic
Thanks so much, Felipe. This was such a great and illustrative video.
Glad you liked it Corina!
Looks and sound awsome !
thanks Denis!
these setups are really great, I play bass and want to start playing beats in the house. cajon+hihat combo would go a long way
Good choice! have fun ;)
Filepe, thank you for the inspiration for my cajon kit!
My pleasure!
Thanks Felipe for this video, i gathered a lot of information from your short vid. Now you want me to make my own set up
Glad you like it Paul 🙏😉
thanks man i bought the direct drive kick you recommended and love it!
Glad to hear you like the pedal! 🙏
I’d be absolutely beside myself with joy if you made a course on a Cajon Kit drum set! A snare, high hat and Cajon kick pedal. LOVE THAT SOUND! Ok maybe a ride too 🥰
I’d purchase twice!!!
Cool idea! i will think about it ;)
Thank you for this video 👍🏻
Glad it was helpful!
Currently just running an LP Cajon, but I have a hi hat and ride cymbal so may give that a go! Thanks for the video Felipe more great content!!
Nice one Gareth! Give it a try and let know 😉🙏
current setup
Meinl cajon
LP cajon pedal
DW lowboy HiHat
Schlagwerk HeckStick 75 + sidekick
using my kit while simultaneously playing country/blues harmonica and for some percussion solos/backup alongside the guitar player as well
Greetings from Brazil!!!
um abraço Fernando! 😉🙏🙏
Great video! I've been experimenting with a small setup using a 16" bass drum, snare, hi-hat, and bongos (no ride). I play with brushes and mallets. I'm considering using a cajon as a bass drum replacement, so this video was really interesting. cheers
Sounds great! let me know how it goes after you test it ;) cheers
Great video Felipe. I use the Meinl direct drive cajon pedal as well. When I feel ambitious, I'll add a 16" crash as a ride and a 10" splash as a crash, only because they are smaller, and throw in some hi-hats. I'll also use a Meinl travel cajon as a snare and play with Promark broomsticks. I really like the broomsticks because I get a softer sound on the cymbals. And when I want to completely lose the cajon vibe, I'll add in some bongos as toms, a wood block, tambourine, shakers, cowbell... then all I need to do is take away the cajon and replace it with a bass drum. 😊 It's fun to experiment.
Hey Chris! The splash works fine. I use it when I’m playing only with hands on my left side. The meinl travel cajon is a good option as well with brushes 👍🏻 As you said always good to experiment 😉🙏 cheers!
Man, you're grooves are awesome. I'm definitely going to try this set up. Thanks!
Thanks Josh! let me know how it feels after you test it ;)
Right now my cajon set-up consist of a Stagg Bongo-N-Cajon, Vic Firth Brullets, two LP Finger Shot shakers, and a Meinl foot tamborine.
awesome
Hello. My kahon set is kahon with this your pedal, 12”splash,medium ride, and some times using a tambourine put on the splash and play like hihat.
Excelente vídeo. Pensé que yo era el único loco que adhiere más elementos al cajón hasta convertirlo en una especie de Minor Percussion-Drum Set 😅
Yo le he puesto:
Kick pedal
13" Piccolo-snare
13" floor drum
13" Hi-hat
10" Cymbal
12" Cymbal
14" Splash
LP 441 Soft shaker
Small tambourine on the left foot
Playing with brushes (most of the time)
Lo hago solo por diversión, porque soy guitarrista y grabo mis propias canciones incluyendo la percusión. Saludos!! 👋
Muy bien! hay que inventar :) un abrazo!
I got this.. this exact bass pedal before I even saw your review, so that is cool! A massive djembe, bongos and I strap a shaker to my free foot. It looks so scuffed and I love it lol.
Sometimes instead of a shaker, I will put some loose nuts and bolts into a water bottle, scrunch it up and strap that to my foot. It gives a kind of *loose audience stomping* sound effect.
@@F00Lsmack Very nice! would love to see/hear this kit ;)
@@CajonMaster I'll hit you up with a RUclips link as a reply whenever I can get some video of it,
Maybe you can compare the bass between the regular kick drum vs cajon w/ pedal.
WoW Felipe you are very talented drummer!! Release a DRUMMER MASTER course!!😅👌... Thanks for tour vids!!!!
Thanks a lot! :) Maybe one day!
i like your shoes
Right now I have a pearl cabana cajon and a pearl M-80 snare. I was planning on getting the direct drive pedal and a hi hat. Do you think they will fit with what i have already? If so what are some suggestions?
Quiero saber mas de ese pedal para CAJON PLISS
Can i use the cajon pedal with my left feed ?
I use the cajon, hi hat , cymbal setup frequently. For a snare I use the LP 10" cajon octo- snare. The wood has aged well and you can get some great sounds out of it. I also use a 10" Meinl Djembe in the setup on occasion.
Great ideas! Thanks for sharing!
Djembe op
What is the octo snare? Sounds 😎
@@F00Lsmack ruclips.net/video/4KBjbT3Uouo/видео.html
@@F00Lsmack The snare in the video is an old one made in Brazil with Brazilian wood, did you like the sound?
Great video! I am setting my new Cajon drumset (including bongos and congas). How could I set the tone of the Cajon, in order to use it mostly as bass drum?
Thanks for the message Simone. I would advise you jut to loose a bit the to middle screws just to have the center a bit more soft and not to responsive and also it's important t choose a cool soft beater. The tennis ball beater or the foam beater work fine with the cajon.
Hope it helps. Look forward to hear about your new kit ;)
Dear Mr. Cajon Master, Thank you for this video. It's helping me make up my mind regarding a cajon drum kit. I plan to play at my church and it's low-volume acoustic setting. I want to use a pedal for the cajon (so the cajon acts as a bass drum) and a low-hat and probably a splash cymbal. A true snare drum will be too loud so what would you recommend? The LP cajon snare drum? I looked at the Meinl cajon drum set but the snare sounds more like a woodblock than a snare. Please let me know your thoughts for optimal setup. Thank you and I am enjoying your videos. Salvatore
Hi Salvatore! Have a look in Meinl percussion snare. its made of aluminium and is very sensitive. here is the link geni.us/wpMpEh
@@CajonMaster Thank you very much this is helpful I appreciate you getting back to me
I need cajon foot padle
How can i get it?
Thanks Felipe, i want to buy chymbals and a pedal from my cajon
Hi Felipe. How do you deal with the baseplate lifting and making unstable and scratching the cajon?
Hi! I agree with you, after a while the base plate is not the best. I've just spoke with Meinl about that and they are releasing a new pedal with a new base plate in 2024. Let see if it will be better, I will test it here.
Yo uso
1. Schlagwerk cajon
2. Zildjian A 18' uptown ride
3. Zildjian K 14' Fx Trash hi hat
3. Remo tamborine &
4. Shackers...
Great set up! thanks for sharing 😉🙏
I have all of the cajon taps by Meinl to really make a full drumset all out of cajons. I have quite a few pairs of the rods, maybe a future video could be a review of all of those?
Good idea! I will check that ;)
Sir please make a lesson on 6/8 grooves
I will do it, thanks for the suggestions 🙏😉
Bro just made the cajon as a bass drum💀💀 all jokes aside, this is a good setup 👋
Glad you like it!
Don't forget it's the throne as well 😂
I Use a Pearl boom box Cajon with dw Cajon pedal
Pearl short fuse snare
Dw hi hat hardware with the Meinl candela hi hats
Great set up Eric! I would love to see and hear ;)
4:00 now you just have to replace the cajon with a bass drum 🤣
I love my SABIAN 11" AAX X-Plosion Splash cymbal for my cajon hybrid set up. With hands or nylon rods/brushes, as the name states, it EXPLODES and is perfect for Cajon hybrid setups. Check it out!
Nice one!
Nice play! But yeah I'm a bit purist. Drum kit for drummer and cajon for cajon percussionist. Don't mad at me, please 🤣
Not at all 😀 Thanks for your comment 🙏
Hi
Hello my friend ;)
Hi Felipe, I use the Loota cajon drum kit with a Paiste 20” Stambul ride cymbal. I love the sounds it make.
The fourth kit can now be replaced by a Tajon.
cool! would love to see that ;)
It makes no sense to me. If I have to mount all that stuff I bring the kick directly :)
I understand your point. But sometimes the bass drum can be very loud compare to the cajon, and also if is a small gig with a small space for a band for example, the cajon as a kick drum can save space.
@@CajonMaster Yes it's also true.. All in all, I prefer to load-in and load-down as little stuff as possible ahaha
bruh
These videos need to stop comparing a Cajon to a drum kit. Add what you want,play what you want,it's still just playing on a wooden box.
