What this browser tool does

A dedicated sixteen-step organ workshop that separates reggae SKANK and BUBBLE parts, with browser preview and MIDI export.

First five steps

  1. Set BPM, key and chord movement.
  2. Listen to SKANK on its own.
  3. Add BUBBLE at a lower level and register.
  4. Change the final return.
  5. Export MIDI and assign an organ instrument in a DAW.

Basic controls

SKANK

Short offbeat chords define the cut and release.

BUBBLE

Quieter sixteenth-note motion should sit behind bass and drums.

CHORD / VOICING

Use inversions and a higher register to avoid the bass.

MIDI

MIDI carries the SKANK and BUBBLE notes to a DAW for organ assignment.

Practical setups

Roots cut

Short SKANK, restrained BUBBLE and stable upper voices.

Early digital

Harder tone, short gates and disciplined repeated motion.

Ska

Brighter short SKANK with less BUBBLE at a faster tempo.

Save and export

Export SKANK and BUBBLE as MIDI, load the file into a DAW and adjust gate and velocity against the rhythm section.

What this tool does not do

  • MIDI carries notes and timing, not the final instrument sound.
  • Choose instruments and finish the mix in your DAW.
