I remember school around 88-91 being taught drums on keys using the Yamaha PSRs
3:28 This is Rock and Roll!
I thought keyboard drumming isn't really my thing and here I am, 27 minutes later :) Great content and skills as always, Paolo!
your content lately has been absolutely superb, seriously
Thank you, please spread the word
Skills man. I've just subscribed to SynthMania and so happy I did. What a fantastic channel.
Cool, my first drumming lesson! Thank you so much for explaining the really basics of different music styles!
FANTASTIC !
As usual, great content! Appreciate you sharing your knowledge. I learned a few new tricks to make my drum patterns better. Great!
Fantastic video. Thanks Paolo!
Incredibly helpful tutorial ! 👍 Many thanks
Wow! A month of excellent keyboard-drumming tutorials in one video! Thank you Paola!
Thank you!
Ha! I play keyboard drums the same way... hands crossed! 😄
And that's three people I know of, now! 😄 You, Simon Phillips and me :D Thank you, Scott ;)
Thank you for this, I've been wanting to learn how to do keyboard drumming for a while so this is very valuable information for me.
Thank you very much
Thanks synthmania this is the best keyboard drumming tutorial I’ve seen on TH-cam 👏👏👏👍👍👍
Very instructive. Thank you.
Great demo! Loved seeing all the different styles.
Thanks so much!
Paolo, this is priceless! Grazie mille!

Thank you, Gabriel!
Excellent video !! Thank you!!
Nice one Paulo!
Thanks for making this video. It explains a lot
Thank you
Thank you Paulo. Very useful.
Glad it was helpful!
What a lesson! Thanks so much 💪
Glad it helped!
This is so mind opener in several ways you have no idea. This finally took me out of the confusion and intimidating zone. I've learned as much in 1h30 as in x years.
Now i can finger drum other things than kick snare hat without brainstorming like a jerk.
The only thing that is still confusing is the difference between kits. Some have only 8 percussions, some don't have this or this type of perc etc. But now i way better see how they're usually mapped, as i've tried a bunch of them while following you, and they respect the same scheme. I guess we just have to dig each one and learn its specificities.
Usually, i keep this for women, but i love you ;D So many thanks and respect Paolo.
Very welcome! :)

@@themooz4118 Very welcome - it also says at 0:44 - I usually add notes of the gear used in my videos.
@@themooz4118 The drums in this video come from the Roland expansion board "SRX-01", which is contained in a Roland XV-5080 module; the module's MIDI In connects to an M-Audio MIDI-to-USB interface that goes to a computer running Cubase (DAW). The Novation USB goes to the computer as well. In the DAW MIDI track, the Novation USB MIDI is selected as MIDI In, and the M-Audio interface as MIDI Out. In your case, it's simpler because you don't have the external hardware gear. Just select your KeyStep as MIDI In, and whichever drum instrument you pick in Ableton as your MIDI Out
@@themooz4118 If you need some help, just PM!
Love this. Great stuff!
Glad you enjoy it!
You blinded me with even more skills. Wow just wow Paulo!
Inspiring. Thank you for sharing.

I really loved that you went over many genres, Paolo. Highly interesting content as always! I'm really curious about how to play bachata properly. I've figured out that kind of Romeo Santos roll: it seems that you just go over the first three or four notes chromatically starting from bongos. After that I just mess around, though 😂.
Thank you, Gonzalo! This video explains Bachata well th-cam.com/video/biHzNLJBtas/w-d-xo.html
Cara, que aula !! Muito obrigado. Agora vou poder programar meu ritmos com mais facilidade e com pegada. Gravar os ritmos assim com um controlador midi na minha BOSS DR3, vai ficar muito melhor do que nos Pads. ✌😉
Obrigado, Rosalvo!
@@SynthManiaDotCom disponha Paolo.
Can I sample your playing, it's very groovy, joke aside, this is the best explanation, of basic drumming,
10:00 now I understand what did they try to recreate on the DMX in the Blue Monday track, these unique BD+ hihat "stabs"
9:50 nice groove
Please could you demonstrate (slowly) some fills and rolls for Reggae, not just 1-drop but also Rockers and Dancehall/Ragga style too.
Thank you
Haha, i'm left handed and also keyboard drum the same way you do, you just do that much better than me, at least for now, and probably forever!
And there's four of uf :) Yes! :-D
I'm left handed and I had no idea crossing hands was a way to drum on a keyboard! Interesting!
3:28 " This is rock-n-roll!"
Thank you for this. I have the same controller, but mine is not so clean....
WOW - who knew Bela Lugosi's dead was a bossanova beat? I didn't! but there you have it.
I think it's actually a fast reggae. Reggae was extremely popular at that time and a lot of the English bands of that era were influenced by it (i.e. the Clash)
yes - that may be ... it sounds a LOT like it - that's all - MY surprise - musicology is fascinating
❤❤ im srilank.
Great vid, and so many ways to learn drumming, still wondering if I should pick keyboard drumming, finger drumming, electronic drum kit, sample pad etc. Wanting to get better at rhythm skills to improve my sax playing. Any guidance on which one of these drumming methods will best help improve rhythm feel for someone who is struggling?
Thank you, I think any of those four methods will work, although I'd recommend the electronic drum kit as the best of them, because it resembles a real drum kit the most.
I can manage the first 2 bars of keyboard drumming but then I either increase or decrease the tempo, I have mouse entry on the piano roll down to a fine art and prefer this over live playing and quantisation.
Why don't u play to a metronome????
i'm having trouble with the hand independence i'm gonna keep practicing tho
I love keyboard drumming. no choice fl studio piano roll drum maps would match my jv1080 drum map. a mess:)
23:33. Usually congas are here. You mean one octave up since -1 becomes 0 on midi-keyboard’s display.
Correct - the display reflects the position of the octave shift.
Hi!
Can you explain how the drums are panned?
I am listening through headphones.
Thank you,
7:31 I wouldn't call those "rolls" but rather "fills."
I would too - I misspoke.
hello, ca n you demonstrate Jazz Fusion Drum performance
Yes yes. Was that funk beat from? Walk on by Isaac Hayes.
Ah, yes, definitely in the same '70s vein as Walk On By :)
can you teach me how to do a cool fill with keyboard drum
Paolo, i have a question: is it easier for you to play drums on a real drum set as on a keyboard? The handgrip is very unusual on keyboard, but you don't need much space at home :-)))
Easier on a keyboard :)
@@SynthManiaDotCom hahaha.. Thats it! :-)

here 1st!
Are you telling me that "Bela Lugosi's Dead" is a bassanova? @ 26:56 :D
Fast reggae / ska
Did is Lock and Loll :)
Can you teach me in live
How many fingers do you have :)
Ciao Paolo. Conosci il ROLAND Cloud?
Si', la conosco ma non ce l'ho
Hilarious- "don't do it like me (a famous tuber), and another famous guy."
Trust me on this one
@@SynthManiaDotComDude I've been a follower since the website. Plus, i play drums on a zoom mrt-3 and a korg padkontrol! So, what do i know!
Who else's is here cus your sick of your drummer not keeping time and have to take matters into your own hands(fingers).
- from a guitarist.
Years ago i was in a band and when we finished recording for the night and everyone went home I would stay in our studio sometimes all night redoing the drums and the bass tracks. Kinda crappy I know but I never could get those guys to play their parts without being sloppy. Live was great but the studio left a little to be desired. Im not sure they ever knew the difference when i would give them a copy of what "we" recorded lol.
What daw did you use
Cubase
3:28 does this guy have a channel?

@@SynthManiaDotCom thanks!
Are the *3* dislikes from drummers ? :(
No, just idiots
