Hello

I’m trying to source a tutorial that teaches how to make my own ghost snare rolls on a MPC One that sound authentic for the use in Funk music. Clyde Stubblefield, Purdie etc…..
Does anyone know?

I tend to watch actual drum tutorials more than drum programming tutorials to understand aestheticism. Preferably those with drum notation. I really like how this guy breaks things down, and hi videos on different things to focus on. He's a rock drummer, but he has a leaning towards funk.

Put the same same snare on all 4 layers then adjust the offset, velocity and possibly pitch on layers 2-4. Or you could use pad link and do the same across multiple pads including triggering more than 4 hits.

ENV can also be manipulated for filter velocity.
