Hi Roov, the closest rhythm you'll get to ska is to speed up the reggae pattern slightly, I'm a big ska fan .
True, but unfortunately iRealPro only offer a swing (triplet based) reggae beat, which is not really suitable for faster tempo ska rhythm. Let's hope the developers add in the future an even (straight feel) version of the reggae pattern!
El Pussy Cat - Skatalites
A personal favourite!
Latin Go Ska - Skatalites
Ska Ba - Skatalites
The Kingstoners (7)
1. I Shot The Sheriff - Bob Marley
2. Could You Be Loved - Bob Marley
3. Monkey Man - The Specials
4. Democracia - Genís Barcons
5. Whiskey 'till I Drop - The Busters
6. Smile - The Busters - The Busters
7. Talk Is Cheap - The Toasters

Shout and Flat Tire in the new blues styles have nice up-beat grooves. but still not Ska . Too bad they didn't include it. It's almost Gypsy Jazz with up-beats. Wouldn't think it would be as hard to program as some of the other beats.
Does anybody know if a Ska style is in the works?
Don't post a playlist as the songs in a Realbook if the changes aren't from the book.
If you do transcribe changes from a book put it in the title RB1, RB2, GGB, Sher, etc
One Step Beyond - Madness
One step beyond - style Setup reggae tempo 155bpm
