Freemasons' James Wiltshire on a Kong Drum Designer tip

In the second of our tutorial clips from the recent Propellerhead Producers Conference at London's Ministry Of Sound, James Wiltshire - one half of duo Freemasons - shows us a quick house production trick.

In the video above, James demonstrates how - using Reason's Kong Drum designer - to beef up sampled claps to give them the disco-inspired sound of modern house music.

Check out the first Propellerhead Producers Conference tutorial clip to see how to use the Pulsar Rack Extension as a playable synth.
