Kawai R-50e Digital Drum Machine - Sounds and Patterns


video upload by zibbybone

"Little brother to the R-100, but agressive none-the-less. Drum sounds include Simmons-style electronic kit, Reverb kick, snare and toms, gated snare, claps, 'HiQ' click, snap, thumb and slap bass guitar, 2 different orchestra hits and timpani.

Here I demonstrate the 4 preset drum kits and the 8 USER kits which can be overwritten with your own settings along with the 50 built-in drum patterns.

Audio was recorded direct from the headphone output into the stereo mic input on my Canon T3i (sorry about the line noise in a spot or two). Any reverb you hear is sampled into the drum sounds. Delay and flange effects can be programmed into a drum kit. I'm pretty sure those effects are achieved by "doubling" the voices limiting the machine's 8 voice polyphony."
