Hello Ross! Can you, please, tell what is that reggae music behind during the tutorial? I would like to have it to play in the background while I am practicing reggae beats on my cajon. From tomorrow I will be the member of community. you're great!

Hey Una, they are from “KZbin Audio Library” I chopped up loops on my sampler to make what you hear in this video but the tracks are still fun to play with from start to finish. 🎬KZbin Audio Library Credits: Text Me Records - Palms Jingle Punks - Riddim Road Quincas Moreira - Thug Dub TrackTribe - Spook Off TrackTribe - Dub Gun Welcome to the community and I hope I can teach you even more with the members courses.

[@daveargall3454]

Great stuff here for accompanying reggae/dub! I have always counted reggae in half time? I mean the classic guitar chops on 2 &4 with the snare drop on 3, bass drum emphasizing 1st & 3rd, counting as eighths. I don't know if this could cause any incongruities but I find it a lot easier....

[@rosslmccallum]

Dave Argall I’ve counted it that way too in the past. When I heard about “the one drop” meaning you don’t hit beat one, I changed how I counted it. But the feel is still the same so I didn’t notice probably!

Is it necessary to read notes when learning how to play the cajon?

[@rosslmccallum]

I usually use my ear but like that I can use notes to save something that I can replay later.

Maybe it's just me not knowing how to read notes. Do I need to be able to read notes? I find the videos confusing because of the notes

[@rosslmccallum]

Hey Anri, it’s fine to just use your ears to learn (that’s all I did for years) but once you can read a little bit, remembering rhythms gets easier. Here’s my video about learning to read rhythm. It’s long but I think it can help How To Read Rhythm And Sheet Music For Cajon Lessons kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2OQmqloYt2Mi5I

[@anriroze11]

@@rosslmccallum Thank you for answering personally! I had already found your video and I will be watching it multiple times probably. I'm only just a beginner, but I'd like to have a decent chance and reading rhythm seems important. Especially since I play to play along with others in the future!

[@HPHSGermany2010]

#5 is rooted in a right-lead paradiddle, eh?

[@rosslmccallum]

Thanks for the comment! Not so much. The first part is indeed RLRR. However a paradiddle would continue RLRR LRLL. It's kind of a custom hitting order that worked best for getting the constant bass as well as a shuffling ghost note rhythm together.
