Can we get a drum programming tutorial like u did for guitar scales and stuff ?

@DonDudley Жыл бұрын

@@kukukabala Seconded. I SUCK at drum programming and would love to get a decent tutorial. But I have a feeling he uses a drum plugin that does the heavy lifting.

@kukukabala Жыл бұрын

@@DonDudley Hmm well he probably does use some presets of midi drums but I have seen him go like "ok lets make some thing like -ba dum dat dat bum da da dat- and make that into a fill and stuff I mean he definitelly knows how to write drum parts.

Sadly I was spoiled on Kyle being on the track thanks to Spotify but this song freakin slaps so hard, I gotta listen to more Lamb of God. Have a great day Nik keep up the great work, still hoping for a How to Metal Hellsinger in 30 seconds and you gotta make the song around 5 minutes long since that how long most songs from that game last, put it on Spotify and stuff like that, and let people play the song in game. For vocals, anyone would do that not apart of the game already. Also anyone know the lyrics to the song I really wanna know? I’m trying to put the lyrics on Genius
