reggaeton drums

anyone here doing reggaeton? im looking for some good drums....

this should be in production tech forum,

but i didnt know there was a certain drum to the kind of music

Reggaeton drums are twicked and eq different then regular hip hop drums.....what you need to do is network and get in with someone who is already producing mainstream reggaeton joints and just ask for some drums....Most likely they will hit you up with some if you dont act like hound, also you could just try sampling off recent reggaeton records.....hope this helps. Most of the drums come from the old sp1200 sampler

check out www.warbeats.com/site/

in the tutorials section there should be a video about programing reggaeton drums

think you may have to sign up to view the vids

this tutorial, if i remember right, is more concerned with the drum pattern programing rather than drum sounds but it might be useful to you

Sample some kicks and adjust the tuning/pitch. They usually don't have alot of low end, they usually lack in the low end and have a bassline behind them to drive the beat, I came across a couple kits on the motif ES that have that type of sound to them, they're in like the house and dance kits I think, I can tell you the exact name of the program in the ES that has it when I use it again.

Just sample and loop up some reggaeton drums from an existing reggaeton song... that what it seems like everyone else does.



haha, j/k

YEAH, and reggaeton sucks anyway, don't jump on the bandwagon...Ride it like a ford baby...

I think that tutorial is based on Fruitty Loops not the mpc.......

almost all reggaeton producers i know use fruity loops.
