Cajon Lesson: Beginner Speed and Subdivision

[@rosslmccallum]

Hey thanks for watching! 😁 There’s now a 260 page eBook that goes with the Cajon Method 1.1 course. It's full of easy-to-read notation, practice tips and more. If you're interested, please consider joining the class. kzbin.infojoin Thank you! ❤

[@Moguandleo]

Ross you are really kind while explaining. Inspired and have ordered my first cajon.

[@rosslmccallum]

Mohak Mohta what an exciting time coming up! Ask me questions any time after you get the new cajon :-)

[@johngreen8490]

Just found your channel Ross - want to say a big thank you for your enthusiasm and clear instruction. Learning Cajon is my Covid lockdown project!

[@rosslmccallum]

Hey John welcome! Sounds like the beginning of a good plan 👍 see you soon.

[@dianamatlack6537]

You are really great at teaching and you put clear and engaging videos together. Thank you! Really grateful to have found you.

[@pressefr]

Thank you for posting! You're the only person that I've seen that shows what the music sheet/score would look like; for anyone who needs to know to write it or read for a Cajon Drum would benefit!

[@rosslmccallum]

Really happy to read that. Takes time and effort to add it to the videos but it seems like people really benefit so that’s good!

[@BrunaChaves09]

Just found your channel and subscribed already. Love how simple and yet complete, organized and well explained your material is. I've never seen someone break the video into small sections like you do - it's so easy to find what one is looking for this way.

[@rosslmccallum]

Bruna Chaves super happy to hear the video sections feature is working. It’s new and takes a bit of work to put the time’s in but just hearing that it helps makes all the effort worth it! Welcome to the channel!

[@frankpratte8358]

Great lesson, I love that you have the notation and are playing along with it. That really helps me.

[@Aakash.plays.g]

Seriously you deserve more respect! ❤️🌸 Keep going!

[@rosslmccallum]

Cheers!!!

[@AlexanderEvain]

first!!! :D great lessons!!! Greetings from Greece!

[@Sartifier]

Thank you for these simple yet amazing lessons man!! This really helps. Love from Nepal!!

[@JunoAkimato]

A very good groove/fills to practice on with different tempos and variations. Thanks so much ross!!! This really helps on my cajon playing ❤️❤️

[@rosslmccallum]

I'm very very happy to help!

[@parthkumarchaudhary]

You're' explanation is completely digestible, please make complete tutorial series to learn more :) thank you.

[@rosslmccallum]

Glad to hear!! Try working through this. It’s always a work in progress but see how far you get. kzbin.info/aero/PLkFTJa7bYzThGL_78XSshBDbBR38NFiUc

[@Adrian-dl9nb]

This one was great as usual, Ross! Wish it had L&R indications in the sheet music, but still great.

[@rosslmccallum]

Ah, sometimes the different apps I use are harder than others to add that in. But luckily it's RLRL the whole way through. If it's ever something more complex I'll draw attention to it.

[@rafaeltrigu]

Man i love you!! A lot off thx from Brasil!!

[@DawnaJones_Evolution]

Sadly my hands do something other than what you are doing. No idea how to fix that. Love your lessons and appreciate how you break it down for non-musically talented people like me.

[@laurahernando5389]

Love it! Thanks!

[@fanipatsalidou8252]

You are really helpful. Thank you so much!!!! :)

[@blakeman321]

This is awesome!!! thank you!

[@GregoryBodager]

These videos are super helpful! How do I sign up for the course (members)? Thx in advance

[@rosslmccallum]

Thank you! Glad to hear that :-) kzbin.infojoin Check out the "Cajon Method 1.1 Class" level.

[@mollystaeheli294]

I have been a steering wheel drummer for YEARS and just bought a cajon a week ago. I have watched and practiced a couple of your videos over and over and I think I'm getting it!! What is a website where I can access more of those drum bars you are showing and I can tell you are listening to on your laptop?

[@rosslmccallum]

Hello thanks so much! Glad you’re getting the hang of it :-) Do a google search for “Groove Scribe”. It’s a tool by a teacher called Mike Johnston. Maybe have a go at transcribing some rhythms and saving them for your practice! Good luck and have fun.

[@aman478]

AWESOME! PLS KEEP IT GOIN FOR NOOBS LIKE ME!

[@meliacofede]

Hi Ross, practicing your beginner videos with Groove Scribe, finding it very useful. I have a doubt though, a very basic one. Not even sure how to explain myself, hehe! How do I put those 6 notes in a 4x4?

[@meliacofede]

I mean on the Groove Scribe

[@rosslmccallum]

I understand! The subdivisions (1/16) etc are on the left side of the screen. The groups of 6s are called 16th triplets. Select that on the left side and you’re good to go! Also thanks so much for joining up as a member. Super happy to have you. That blue members badge looks neat too 👍

[@cathynaveaux1653]

Hey Ross great lesson as usual ! Can ask which are the 3 tempos you used to practice with my métronome ?

[@Mark_Breemans]

Cool. I like the staff on the screen while playing. what software do you use for this? thanks for the instructive videos

[@PrakashPorua]

Really Nice and simple explanation of the 32nd notes. You should plan to visit India sometime 😊

[@rosslmccallum]

I'm going to be looking for more exciting overseas plans in 2020 and 2021 for sure!

[@Moguandleo]

I am getting the melody now but it's hard to understand the music theory. Could you make a video on the basics of it? Thank You❤️

[@rosslmccallum]

Mohak Mohta Happy to help! kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2OQmqloYt2Mi5I

[@lizaestrella2934]

Could you explain how to read the score for the drawer, please

[@rosslmccallum]

Here’s my video on reading music. It’s long but go through it when you have time :-) kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2OQmqloYt2Mi5I

[@Moguandleo]

Hey ross can you mention L R hand subtitles in your videos.

[@rosslmccallum]

Mohak Mohta I realised I didn’t have them on this video because I think I hadn’t figured out how to write them in the software I was using. All my new videos have them now. But thankfully, this lesson is only RLRLRLRL for the whole time.

[@nickbos3094]

You are so good

[@rosslmccallum]

Nick Bos thank you so much! Happy to be of service!
