Good video, good breakdown, good attitude. Musicians like you who make these videos are always so cheerful and positive. It makes me enjoy this industry so much more. Two years later, I hope you're still making music and doing well. Good video, good breakdown, good attitude. Musicians like you who make these videos are always so cheerful and positive.

[@mystic1958]

Love you bro you inspired me to buy an akai mpk mini and I love it

[@kkrex]

thanks so much for the love

[@cathi-annwilliams7093]

Excellent teaching. Really good.

[@kkrex]

thank you cathi, I tried to be clear

[@brmm48]

Thanks so much for this video and all the work that you put into it!!! I got the Roll songmaker kit GarageBand ed. about a month ago after waiting for it for 6+ months, production delay because of covid ( I was told), I haven't really been able to get it to work. Why? Well I have a new iPad and the noise app is glitching to where it blackens the screen ( garage band app kinda works but isn't as user friendly and Roli seems to need to connect usb to work properly ( saw on another guys YT video who had same probs as me)which I don't have usb on ipad) and I found out somewhere online this has to do with the recent iOS update and roli may or may not get to that anytime soon so I turned my efforts towards my Dell Windows 10 laptop and after installing all the software it can't find the Roli hardware driver anywhere ( not can I or tech support). So that's been very discouraging and now I'm going to buy a MacBook pro to hope it works. After seeing your video at least I don't have to spend weeks or months learning it bc now I now know how to use it and it only took like 10 minutes thanks to you and that's amazing! I just thank you for that because I've spent, I don't know 10 hours+ at this point just trying to get it to work. I know there are a lot of other options out there and maybe I'm a little insane to try and stick it out especially when Roli may not be able to keep up with future software probs etc but I'm a complete newbie at this and it really looks like, especially from watching your video, that people that aren't completely tech savvy can just use the blocks to create music instead of having to interact with the screen, also it takes up a very small amount of space, sounds great and I like that it's soft.... I find that very therapeutic. I really think Roli should give you a free Songmaker kit if they haven't already and maybe hire you to teach people because this is by far the best demo out there! They need to know and acknowledge that. Blessings

[@leseanblouw327]

Does this work with iPhones or do you have to have a Mac Btw this is the best review I have seen for this product. I am going to like and sub

[@kkrex]

thanks so much, and it has bluetooth capabilities so it will most likely work with iphones/ipads

[@user-nb8ro1oq5n]

kkrex Ok thx

[@coolbreezeonline]

Where did you get the really cool cover for your MacBook?

[@kkrex]

Roli Songmaker kit vs Akai MPK mini MK2

[@kkrex]

they both have their pros and cons, but I like both

[@jeremyc8372]

kkrex Ok thank you so much for replying! I’ll probably go for the MPK mini. Love your work man you are amazing!

[@samueliacob2803]

How to change the instrument?

[@kkrex]

go into whatever software on your computer you are using the songmaker kit with and change the track by going to that DAWs library.

[@look2london]

Nice vid brother ---

[@kkrex]

thanks

[@Zimbax]

ayy

[@kkrex]

yuhhh

[@oliverlehmann1465]

Keep it up man

[@kkrex]

Thanks

[@robob3ar]

wow, perfect controls, does it do the same on iphone/ipad?

[@kkrex]

yes, it connects through bluetooth

[@robob3ar]

kkrex ordered it, but just couldn’t find much info on how exactly it runs on iphone/ipad and if it runs on batteries and uses bluetooth - sort of assumed when I saw it running without a cable and on an iphone - should have a more detailed demo on it.. i hope it will run ok

[@theowagner8457]

Can you make a video with your favourite instruments in logic?

[@kkrex]

honestly I dont have favorites, yet loll, I still got alot of sounds to go through

[@GamingAuthorityVideo]

How is the roli seaboard work w ableton?

[@JOBLESSGENTLEMANSJOURNEY]

Does this work with Luna?

[@yng_teo1368]

First

[@kkrex]

yuhhhh

[@24nikita]

Really good tutorial loved it. Could you possibly talk a little slower that`s all.

[@billyfreeze1893]

will it play chord progressions?/ (assign chords to the individual blocks like pads on a native instrument mk mini) thx

[@coolbreezeonline]

You used a wired connection to your computer. Cant't you use Bluetooth? If, so is there no lag time?

[@kkrex]

yes I can use bluetooth and I could not tell there was lag when I tried it

[@brendanhagerty]

Not gonna lie I thought you bouta say you could even put it on the top of the piano 😂

[@kkrex]

lol

[@brendanhagerty]

kkrex you what you’re even replying to videos this old wow

[@jasonjordan5298]

maybe one day we produce a song together

[@cleverestx]

Is the unit set up to work seamless (non-garage band edition?) with Studio One 4.6? (PC) Does anyone know how they work together? Only as a generic midi controller or is there deeper integration with it?

[@natebarrett3024]

dope vid

[@natebarrett3024]

also nice hair cut XD

[@kkrex]

thanks

[@kkrex]

lol thanks so much, I try

[@zerosumgamez]

I think the plastic surface of the keyboard will become sticky overtime. A horrible demise.

[@shido74]

Does it work with Windows too? Because im really interested in it but i don't have a Mac or an IPhone

[@kkrex]

I think the keyboard and pads should work but I don't know about the other block that controls looping and recording etc but I'm not 100% sure

[@shido74]

@@kkrex ok thanks :)

[@LandoMitethePRO]

So what’s gonna happen to the akai are you gonna give it away or use it every now and then

[@kkrex]

no loll, I'm definitely still going to use, I still like the akai alot, I'll use both

[@LandoMitethePRO]

kkrex haha you should do a video comparing what you can and can’t do in some beats with each controller😂if that makes since

[@ZaryabSiwaily]

Hi kkrex, can i know how much did it cost?

[@kkrex]

$500-$600

[@vivkane2101]

How long does it take you to make a beat? You are amazing!

[@kkrex]

depends the beat, some in like 20 min and some can take over an hour, depends on how in depth I'm going

[@heytherestranger5235]

Is this compatible with an ipad

[@kkrex]

not 100% sure, but it does have bluetooth so probably

[@cathi-annwilliams7093]

Hugs. #thatisall #cuzzo

[@courtneys3229]

I was hoping it was gonna be like $100 not $500😂 I’m out on this one. Great video though.

[@kkrex]

[@kirill2525]
