Rudiments: Essential Hip Hop Beats n' Kits!

[@RazorReg]

If you can’t learn from this guy, I don’t know what else to tell you. Much appreciated.

[@candoraudio3159]

Thank you for not just showing the library but a bit of 'how to" as well

[@jefgibbons]

Most welcome! Glad it helped!

[@Bashanvibe]

NI is coming with it with these expansions!!! Loving this!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@jefgibbons]

It’s a good one!

[@gsmith11172]

This looks like the best sounding drum play series

[@jefgibbons]

Great sounding beats too…

[@oi-po4wf]

Definitely excited about this one!

[@st.thomas5802]

Thanks!

[@jefgibbons]

Thanks to you St Thomas!

[@InnerHacking]

These drums sound so 🔥🔥🔥

Hello Jef, I want to thank you because I have been a Maschine user for almost a year now, I watched many tutorials and videos but I felt that I was not taking advantage of everything, thanks to you I learned theory and to use maschine 100%, for me the most complicated thing in maschine was timestretch and record voices. Because I want to use it as my main daw. I watched all your videos from the first to the last and I was able to solve my doubts about that. It took me some time haha, thank you very much

[@jefgibbons]

Glad to hear it, thanks for sharing Zek!

These Kontakt drum expansions are why I think NI is not going to release another Battery. It's a lot more flexible with the UI and FX. I like what they are doing with these. Once you learn the little tricks, it's very quick and powerful to create nice kits.

[@lofi_soul_jazz]

do u mean to say you can easily drag and drop your own samples into the interface say unlike empire breaks/ kareem riggins and make your own kits?

[@lofi_soul_jazz]

i didn't hear Jeff mention anything bout being able to change samples but dragging the midi is pretty cool!

[@waynebo248]

These drums sound awesome. I hope they add this to my Komplete NOW subscription very soon 🤞🏽 Thanks for another great review Jef 👍🏾

[@jefgibbons]

Most welcome!

[@JustifiedHope]

They did

3:10 this is when I pause the video, set down my iPad, and spent some more money 😲🫣🥰

[@JamesLloydKeyboardist]

I’m a bit late to this party, but me oh my, rudiments sounds awesome. Just when I thought I had everything I needed from NI, here they are, at it again. I’m growing un-fond of constantly upgrading collectors edition, only to still have to buy a-la-carte stuff in between, but it just keeps happening. 🎹

[@jefgibbons]

You know the next version will eventually come… but if you can find a few here and stave off the GAS for the CE upgrade you could save a bit!

[@JamesLloydKeyboardist]

@@jefgibbons That is the plan. Gonna just get rudiments and 2 others during the sale then wait to see what NI offers next. 🎹♥️

[@pandamc7373]

hi how i can use sidechain with bass and kick? from a bass sample not included into rudiments or from another vst ?

[@jadennnnn]

Starting the day with a Jef Gibbons video. Can life get any better?

[@squalley]

Puppy Dawg Kisses 🤨🤔🤷🏾‍♂️🖖🏾

[@garyhendrie4001]

Throw in the lottery numbers and we'll call it a day

[@gsmith11172]

I love his videos

[@tizoc977]

thanks for the quality reviews as always jeff! BTW.. any chance you are bringing back beats and chats? I loved that series! I'd also love to see you jamming on those keys again too, I'm always inspired when i hear em!

[@jefgibbons]

No beats n chats for a bit… but I will! As for jamming, got a vid for you coming this week!

[@tizoc977]

@@jefgibbons awesome! I look forward to both 👌

[@gordowebb9910]

I realize you're not NI, but they don't offer tech support and was hoping you could help. Every drum machine I have has a sync tempo to DAW button except NI. When i play rudiments patterns they won't sync to the DAW tempo. Any tips? thank you. G

[@gordowebb9910]

May work great in maschine but doesn't work properly in kontakt 7. patterns to lock to grid/tempo of session.

[@ralphjoeycabusas]

Hi Jeff, music aside. I'm curious about your choice of watch. Are you wearing a Casio F-91W?

[@lesliemakin]

DX7 TShirt ? 40th anniversary of this great synth, 1st synth to sell more than 100k ? I had a DX9 for a while…. You should do a video on this synth and it’s version available as VST. Nobody seems knows how to program in DX style FM, maybe you could help explain??

[@JamesLloydKeyboardist]

Funny how some folks can complain about a glass of water being too wet. Like Prince said, “never satisfied”. 🎹

[@jefgibbons]

Not sure if you’re referring to me complaining…

[@JamesLloydKeyboardist]

@@jefgibbons Actually no, I was referring to someone else’s comment but trying not be to directive or mean spirited. 🎹♥️

[@JamesLloydKeyboardist]

@@jefgibbons I just meant that it seems sometimes folks complain about the most minute things,even after they’ve been offered so much. 🎹💨

[@jefgibbons]

@@JamesLloydKeyboardist aha! Yeah, people can get very entitled on here... I get it... I get SUPER frustrated sometimes... but I just try to spread the love!

[@JamesLloydKeyboardist]

@@jefgibbons abso-tively 🎹♥️

[@gsmith11172]

I have an A49, I gets no lights

[@jefgibbons]

True!

[@reazallykhan]

I bought the ujam beat maker bundle instead..,..much better value

[@watchandproduce]

I like the Playseries but not for drums. Why wasn't this released as a proper Maschine expansion? It feels like the Maschine software side (not the controller the MK3 is fine the way it is) is being neglected. And come on Native Instruments there are so many other styles you are ignoring. The best selling records world wide are Reggaeton. So how many expansions does NI have for that category: zero. For that matter Reggae? Zero. It's all hip hop, drill, house, techno. It's sad enough to see Native Instruments software innovation slowing to a crawl (Maschine software being a key example, FM8 looking like it's from the time of an Atari ST, to just give a few examples) but what's the excuse on the sound design and expansion side of things. Native Instruments can't find good producers from South or Latin America? Jamaica? Africa?

[@jefgibbons]

I will pass on your thoughts… I’d love to see more of that too!

[@watchandproduce]

@@jefgibbons Thank you.

[@Juice49-80]

I just want the samples how can I get just the samples without buying the whole plug

[@buckycore]

"I'm entitled to anything I want, so I want everything for free"

[@MrTonyPruden]

Don’t sound like hip hop drum samples.

[@nodoze123]

You’re kidding right?!

[@xianning]

I wish there was less talking and more playing of the instrument.

[@jefgibbons]

Dude, there will be plenty of those vids. This was meant to show you how to use it.

[@xianning]

@@jefgibbons I'll be looking forward to that then, keep up the good work!

[@nodoze123]

Why would you think that your comment would be respected @xianning?! Prof G has one of if not THEE best breakdown channels on KZbin. Respect the man! 🤦🏾‍♂️🙄

[@xianning]

@@nodoze123 Let me respectfully phrase it like this. Some people like to watch an explanation. I prefer to listen to how it sounds. So if this was meant to be a tutorial then why not add that in the description?
