How to make a reggaeton beat on your phone with the free bank
A reggaeton beat made only with bank A, the one in the free version. Track 1 gets the dembow, with the kick on every beat, then the hi-hats on top; the chords go on track 2 and the bass on track 3. In the LOOP tab the drums and then the bass drop out in time for a break, the drop brings everything back, and a held filter, echo and note repeat rolls on the hi-hat close it.
In the free version chords and bass are layered on track 2, since you get 2 looper tracks; the third track and the performance recording come with full PadLoop, all unlocked in the 7-day trial.
Do it yourself on your phone: 7 days with everything unlocked, then keep playing free or unlock it all with one purchase.On iPhone: in MORE tap the top row, then Start the free trial. It costs nothing and does not renew.
