Korg Keyboard Sequencer Sounds for Hip Hop Beats

Video Transcript

"The first thing we are going to show you today are the actual "Sequencer" and the buttons, and how to get different voicing?s on the keyboard. So, if you go, and we are going to zoom in here now, if you hit the sequence button, it should be in a column over here, it will say "S.E.Q" , that is your "sequencer". When it comes up you will have a couple of things at the bottom here, it says "program, program" and those are sound levels. Then you have mix and mix" and those are your mix levels and you hit the button underneath it. So here I hit program, now you have all these different things come up, one through eight and those are your different tracks. If you go to where there are dots, you can move around and get different sounds. If you hit "Category" on your keyboard, you will be able to go through and pick through an arrangement of sounds, "guitar, strings, and keyboards". We are going to want to do drums first, so I am going to set this to "Drums" and I am going to take a "Drum kit", let us do a "Jazz kit", now you have a "Jazz kit". So you can go through all the individual tracks and get the different sounds for each track and then at the bottom you can select which track gets the sounds, by through, it says "Different tracks T01 to T08", it goes up to sixteen tracks. Then once you have your tracks actually lined up in there, you can go over to "Mixer" and each track has its own volume level, and you can mess around with that. Sometimes, the organ will be too loud or sometimes you want to mess around with the bass. A good trick to now is if you turn the bass down and then turn the bass up on the overall mix, the effects mix can get louder "kick bass" from your drums. Then you can mess around with your bass manually. Those are your first couple of buttons and we are going to go over if you hit "Preferences", there is a whole arrangement of stuff you can do for setting up your actual loop. We will go over how to set all that up and how to put all that together in just a minute. Right now just get yourself familiar, mess around with a different couple sounds and get moving around your "Korg Triton"."
