The illusion is perfect.

Which layout would you use with an 8 pads controller?

Beautiful, can you do it slower and last longer?

Do you prefer the Mikro over the regular MK3?

Is the lower second pad set to the same snare but with a truncated top speed for ghost notes? I've noticed you hit that one for them instead of the next one on top.

im buying this bru

Have you ever tried a Zendrum? They are great, I used to play on one. Very good sensitivity and control, I’m not sure if any pads match it, but I haven’t played a maschine yet. Don’t have it anymore, considering getting one again, or maybe one of these.

Damn I wish my name was drumming

f******k you! you what to bully us? DAMN! this is NUTS! you are too good! BTW! congrats on those fingers!

❤

I’m thinking about buying a pad device solely bc of you. Why do I get the feeling you live in Thailand or something?

What kits do you use?

HI! Nice drumming. I really like how this kit sounds. I willing to buy this machine soon. How can I get this kit? Thanks!

😮

Yo I’ve been watching you for minute now because I’ve been looking for finger drumming tutorials and I’m very impressed and interested in learning. One question. What daw do you use and is there any software or vst you use to get such dynamic sounding drums?

Really good at real drum sound sessions. 🥁🥁🥁🥁🤩

What drum samples did you use in this video?

This is cool if you like acoustic drums. I'm personally prefer playing electronic music on pads. Hmm... But thats actually very cool to learn for me. I'm playing in ultimately different style due to piano and sound design background. So cool to see it from a drummers perspective

impressive

Incredible

how would you rate this as realistic sounding? kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5-9dJhvrdV0erc

Dragan I went to your page but I don’t get any mail

Bloody hell! Superb!!! 👏🏼

great groove! please play like Nate Smith or Yussef Dayes version!

How do you approach very fast double bass grooves? For example, Infant Annihilator songs.

Hello good afternoon, I know that the korg Nanopad2 is not among those recommended for the fingerdrum modality, but it is the equipment I have, so what is the best distribution of the pads with the drums and cymbals for this 8x2 format, placing them to be played in a vertical position? ?

We gotta get you and Jeremy Ellis in the same room together

Just great 👍🏼✅

Dope man!

Howcum no one sez "maschineh"? It's a German word, and it sounds much hipper than "machine." It puts you in that group of cognoscenti. Just my Zwei Pfennige...two cents. Just for yucks, I'm 64, a flute player and pianist (with a drum kit in the living room), and I just got me a FGDP-50. We'll see how it goes.

Is this a specific native instruments kit? I have all of them, just curious 🤔

When you have Kontakt, yes, yes you can.

Nice vid, I have never bought a pad set before. Its quite interesting to watch, my thoughts are everything becomes muscle member and just flows naturally once you experiment more. My problem would probably be that I have only really finger drummed over the last few years on the edge of my desk, so all my muscle memory is pretty much straight side by side like a piano without the black keys, I would love to see someone arranging a basic straight arrangement with a lot of pads maybe a max of 1" square to see how it plays. I am probably going to look at the market at some point, but see a lot of arrrays of pads out there, one weird spin on my finger drumming is sometimes its on the edge of the front of my laptop, then off the side when I am doing more complex breaks/rythms, so weirdly a couple of segragated units with straight left to right would probably suit my muscle member pretty well. Hopefully I am making some sort of sense and not ranting on too much... haha. anyways great vid and great finger drum skills there, one other side note, I would expect a pad array like that would give me pretty bad carpal tunnel problems when arching over the further away pads, so maybe that is why i finger tap they way i do for now.

Why use acoustic drum sounds on the digital sample pads? Why not to use more interesting sounds?

Love your skills and your video

Quantisation much?

I'd play this for any hold music that my company would use. Good jam though, can't wait to check the rest of your channel out.

Holyyyyy crap you're good banging on some pads and making it sound natural

Maschine Mikro is already a few years old... do you think it is better to wait for NI to release a new version or just get one right now? I want to take your lesson with a reliable gear :) Thanks!!

👍👏👏👏

👏👏👏💪

Can i do it on sp404 mk2?

LOVE the live drum clips! 🤘

I wouldn’t be able to even program what you just did yet alone to play it. Awesome man! 😳👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽

I studied basic and intermediate courses (and partly advanced course) and can definitely say that Dragons (and David Fingers Haynes) approach is the the only one fingerdrummers should use. Before this I practiced mirror layout and corresponding technique. The difference is immense! With approach used by Dragon, sound is much more close to real acoustic drums, mainly because of accents, most importantly on hi-hat. I advise anyone not to waist their time on other techniques, go straight with Dragons approach. Even if you can’t afford his courses, simply watch all free videos and get the essentials of his approach and stick to it.
