This may sound weird, but my 6-year old autistic son has been watching this video on repeat for a few days now. Carefully studying, and replicating the piano and organ technique on his own piano. He's also not fully verbal (in speech therapy), but he will come up to me and demand "DM Kahn!!!"
I just grabbed the One Drop Reggae Drum Sample Pack in the nick of time as this month comes to an end! I decided that maybe it's a blessing that I have to build my own kits from these samples. I am going to create the ultimate kit piece instruments by laying out the samples over the keyboard so that I can play more versatile parts and get exactly the samples I need to create the perfect parts. Who needs a MIDI map to restrict maximum playability? These samples sound so good. I will look forward to getting the samples of the snare with the snare wires active, as recorded in your new studio, so that I have a Rockers snare option as well!
Thanks for your support man. I actually looked into hiring the guy who did the Riddim pack for me in Kontakt but he didn’t get back to me in time. I still will probably do the “all in one” in a Kontakt 5 or 6 file in the future. Appreciate your kind words bro
For a more family barret bass sound, I would put the right hand fingers over the 2 last frets 😉 thank you for the discount and great sound. Happy bithday
Thanks bro, you’re definitely right, Family Man did play a lot of his songs like that sometimes even using his thumb. For this video I was going for a tone with more mid range, in order that could be easy to hear on a cell phone.
Hi Kahn, I've been looking for a vst plugin that produces this sound 11:53 for a long time. Is that an organ? Can you recommend something to me? Thank you!
man i got to say that you're all the way up man,you're crazy. wish i had money wouldn't have mind to buy all package but i hope someday God willing ill manage
Another good one! I just went to look at buying the One Drop Reggae Drum Sample Pack, because it sounds like a must-have. But there is no indication of these samples being arranged into an instrument (Kontakt?) and ready to play as you just demonstrated in this video. I want to assume it comes with a Kontakt instrument or some kind of player of some kind. Can you please confirm? The major selling point of this library would be that it is ready to work with so that we can immediately lay down drum tracks like you did here, or use it with other MIDI drum grooves. As fantastic as this sounds, building yet another instruments from scratch from a collection of one shot samples is not very appealing, especially when there are multiple velocities for the main kit pieces. Please confirm that an instrument(s) are provided. Thanks!
Hi brother, the one drop sample pack works in Logic and Ableton. The Riddim Pack works in Logic, Ableton, and full Kontakt. The Riddim pack is the one that has all the functionality with round robins and dual articulations, therefore I thought it best to make it usable in Kontakt. Note in order to make any sample pack to be able to be used in “free Kontakt”, it requires a licence from Native Instruments and is tens of thousands of dollars, so I had to make it for full Kontakt. I hope this is acceptable to most people as it’s about as good as I could do given I am not a plug-in developer. Cheers!!
@@DMKahn - I already own the Riddim Pack and I own the full version of Kontakt. If you haven't done so already, why not build the One Drop Drum Samples into a Kontakt instrument that matches whatever mapping you have in whatever instrument version of the drums you were using in this video? Why leave out so many people with different DAWs? Most people have a paid version of Kontakt. If not, they should. Just please avoid Kontakt 7 or I still cannot use it. I own Kontakt 7, but it won't run on my OS. I suggest building in Kontakt 5 or mid-v6 so that everyone with Kontakt can easily use it. Thanks!
@@DMKahn Thats a bummer that they do it like that, I suppose you;ve looked into creating your own VSTs... I don't even knoiw what's involved in that but it would circumvent the Kontact ransom.
If you buy the Riddim Pack, it comes with a sampler already set up in Logic, Ableton, and Kontakt Full. You just load up the session/ sampler that comes with pack and it is already mapped to the keyboard. I have another video that shows the pack in more depth: ruclips.net/video/VASFfp77_gs/видео.htmlsi=B9lbYDmNj2hOGRNU
@@DMKahn Nothing wrong with a clicker! Relatedly, recognise the piano and guitar chops in this? The mix could be tighter (bass a bit too heavy) but for a debut... ruclips.net/video/e0U9tO1BMKo/видео.html
Yes sir! All my packs come with wav files that you can set up in any DAW. The One Drop Sample Pack also comes with files for Logic and Ableton that is preset so you can play it just like I did in the video here. The Riddim pack comes set up in Logic, Ableton and Full Kontakt, set up just like you hear in this video. Cheers!
Hey brother can you tell me if the bass is stereo on Lila Ike “ Where I’m coming from”? How did they make it sound like that? And how do you think the organ stab sound so wide in stereo?
You could drop them into GB but it wouldn’t be very efficient. Better to load them straight into Logic where you can play them on the keyboard straightaway
how do you load the piano, hammond and guitar onto the sampler to play from a MIDI device? My samples are a dark color and won't load. And my sampler is green while yours is blue. thanks big up...
Are you in Logic? If so just open the logic file for a single instrument, it should play fine on your keyboard right away. then do a “save as” and save it into your libraries. Do that for all 3 instruments, then you can open up a new file and load any of the 3 sampler instruments
Hey bro I’m planning on just keeping this specifically for the video, not looking for vocals at this time. Appreciate your comment and checking out the video though man! cheers
@@DMKahnI'd love to do a collaboration with you one day, your tracks are always tight. I've already written all the lyrics for this. I'll record it anyway and pop you a link somewhere or another 😊😊

That’s amazing!!! Thank you for sharing this story and please tell him I say hello and thank you for his support of watching my videos!
this roots music is the best tonic for him to develop well. Keep the faith. 🎹🎸🎺
Aw man this might be exactly what I needed I might have to gift this to myself as an early bday present 😂
Very nice sounds and grooves! I make reggae instrumentals and have also used my old 1920's upright in a few productions :D
Gretting DM khan ! Thx for what u bring to reggae production. Please make an MPC version of ur drums and instrument 😊

Happy birthday .. love this pack what delay plugin did you use on this demo track ?
Thanks bro! I used the Waves J37 tape plug-in as a delay
Happy Birthday DM Kahn! Keep doing great vibes!

Happy Birthday Bro. Music can't stop, you make it in D.M. Khan one drop. Peace and One Love. Tbe Big 50? ♥️💛💚
oooh maybe 40
Yes king worth the wait 👊🏿👊🏿🙏🏿
fireeeeee
What audio interface/converters are you currently using? Sounds great👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks. Just the built in FireWire conversion from my Midas Venice F32 (can’t upgrade my Mac)
Are the sounds you used available in your sound pack?
Yes brother, all of the sounds you hear in this video are from Kahn’s Riddim Pack (piano organ guitar) and the One Drop Sample Pack (drums)
Hi Kahn, I've been looking for a vst plugin that produces this sound 11:53 for a long time. Is that an organ? Can you recommend something to me? Thank you!
Esto es algo en lo que vale la pena invertir.
Gracias por tu apoyo hermano 🙏
Hi there, liked the video a lot. What program are you using?
Thanks bro! I’m using Logic X. The sample packs work in Ableton too
man i got to say that you're all the way up man,you're crazy. wish i had money wouldn't have mind to buy all package but i hope someday God willing ill manage
Shoot me an email man, I wouldn’t want money to stop you from making good reggae music. Let’s figure something out : thekahn@gmail.com

Does the one drop sample pack have the rockers style ‘latched’ snare?
also great track, brother
The Legacy pack ($35, I used to sell it for $50) has the rockers snares in it. I plan on sampling my latest rubadub kit next.
nice , please tell us how to make this bubble sound et the chonk guitar in detail , thanks .

@@DMKahn ok , i have ableton but no "suite "
Great video, and as informative as always! Quick question; when you play on the real drums, do you play with or without the clicker?
Hey bro! With the click for sure because my internal sense of timing isn’t that great.

Yes They’re wavs so you can use them on MPC but you’ll have to set it up
