Another fellow Georgian makes a significant contribution to humanity! Thanks for making this clear and concise video on sampling that is about to take my musical exploration to another level. 🙏🏼
Yo homie just really made me feel confident in taking the true artist route not only being a writer but producing mastering both lanes, it feels easier learning the fundamentals on sampling, chopping and tuning thank you and merry early Christmas
Peace King. I appreciate your videos keeping things simple for me as a newbie in music production (I am a 57 year young female) from Plainfield NJ (home of P-Funk) Parliament and Funkadelic.
I just wanted to say it was so cool to read your comment Vonda! I just got my first MPC, the 37 keys and I'm searching videos on sampling. I'm a 48 year old woman. A joy to get into at any age!
this is fire...I'm looking to start my channel next year...showing MPC workflows etc...I think a full vid dedicated to sampling would be dope. There's so much that goes in to it. Even down to the time stretch and warping of the sample. why to use which one and the best explanation for each...I personally use time stretch over the warping.
Mixing is the hardest part on this cause you have to develop your ear first but the speakers are good for that because it's not so bass heavy or light to where you can't properly hear, what you hear is usually the final result in my experience using the built-in speakers. You just have to make sure you don't have the sound bleed into the red unless that's the style you want for that particular beat. I personally just mix as I go until it sounds how it does in my head, also -3db or lower helps to keep a decent mix on the MPC Live, not too loud not too quiet and just enough to hear those piercing sounds and mix it to a perfect flow and then add volume back by turning up the Master output between +1db and +2db, hope this helps some, on my channel I only use standalone mode including mixing, the videos are only recorded on the PC afterwards so you have something to watch instead of darkness
You may want to see that in hyperlapse. The process is mundane... that's why when producers do it online they have all the samples and kicks in place. Trust me if you wanted to see start to finish the producer would be playing the same parts over and over tryna get an idea on how to make it sound like something. The process is really repetitive.
Sweetheart I don't know who you are but I'll tell you what , you are a lifesaver!!! Just got my machine today and I was sampling by recording audio. 😔. Only thing I would like to know is how to alter the tempo without changing the original key of the song. Tune changes the pitch. You're alright with me!🥰
Thank you I’m a very older Dj but I still am inspired to get this and do a lot of remixes of music that I own and it’s a lot of music Thank you for showing your skills . I’m now subscribed
I’ve never did sampling and chopping before, I normally play all my own instruments 🎸 like the Isley brothers, but this does look similar and fun 🤩. I could make 20 beats a day with this formula. Thanks bro 😎
Obviously you're talented! Thanks for doing this. I appreciate you! Can you do more of a screen sharing type instruction based video? I'm more of a visual learner. This will help me tremendously. Thanks for reading. Beat 🔥!
First off love your videos super inspirational, I can tell you love what you do and that gets me vibing too. I am really new to beat making and the MPC world, I just got an MPC one and a midi keyboard. Now what would be awesome to see is a series or one nice video where you take us from an empty project and at the end have a full song. intro,hook,verse,outro the entire process. your videos are the best produced and your well spoken and easy to follow. I watched and read a ton of videos already but everyone seems to skip little steps and as a newcomer to beat making and the mpc, one little step for me to figure out might take me an hour. Anyways love your videos inspirational and helpful. Thank you.
Bro! Loved your videos before and now these how to videos are gonna blow up! How bout a video using the mpc and logic pro x together…maybe your usual process or using the mpc in controller mode
Use your ear. If it doesn't sound right, you can tune it by raising or lowering a few semitones and checking along in program edit. Also a nice technique to get bass that fits is just to use the eq plugin to filter highs and mids from the sample leaving just the low-end which you can then boost and theres your bass. You posted this question a while back but in case you haven't figured these techniques into your workflow or for anyone who might have not thought about it, though I would give my 2 cents. These new mpcs are amazing compared to even the classics which I'm going to be controversial and say either my old 2000xl was faulty hence this legendary soul was missing or it's overhyped as I've never been as inspired as I have been with my mpc live 2.
🔥🔥🔥 Yo, can you make more vids like this with the MPCX? Also, do you only use stand alone mode? If not, could you show us how you work in controller mode too.
Well first off let me just start off saying amazing video I love the content and I love what you do. but I’m surprised nobody on TH-cam teaches music composition when it comes to teaching you how to sample cause I think it would be super helpful and save everyone less time and money buying records and not really understanding how to sample the record or what to look for in the song..
Was wondering how its done in standalone and save it as a program , and didnt knew theres a pitch in trim. Im new to it so still figuring out , but with pitching up/down i dont need to time stretch it anymore , correct ? Greeting from the netherlands
Great video👍…….I’m thinking of getting the One, but I’ve read that it only has 2gb of ram.Can you make a video about tips for saving memory on the MPC?
@@yayyhy Yeah for storage that would be the best option since there are only 2gb of onboard storage, but the 2gb of ram are what make me think about getting an MPC.
Question for you king, I'm new to MPC. Just purchased a Live. I'm having trouble loading my sampled instrumentals I downloaded, they just don't appear or preview play? Any tips on what I can do to fix this issue? I want to chop real bad..
Its a couple steps, u have to do to locate the sounds from your drive or internal sounds. I do offer 1 on 1s and I can get you up to speed in no time on your mpc. check out my website. www.georgiamuslemusic.com
Usually that means you have to slow the sample down a little bit or speed up the bpm of the sequence a little bit. As long as the sample is full, just mess with one of those while the track is playing until its perfect. If that just doesnt sound right still, maybe you cut the sample off before the full 16 beats was done, so try to sample it longer then play with it.
Question , my mpc live 2 is playing back only one sample , even though I got 4 other loops recorded , it only plays back the last recorded loop regardless of what track I put it on ? This all happened when I tried to sync my old korg keyboard, any advice ?
@@GeorgiaMuscleFilms I figured it out , it was god putting me on restriction from my mpc ! I was trying to loop sequences on the tracks , I’m embarrassed, thanks for responding G
@@GeorgiaMuscleFilms same lol...one thing i like about serato sample is you make the sample exactly like you want it. BPM and KEY and then save it and bring it into the MPC....I just wish serato sample had a loop feature, so that the sample would play continuously, while your trying to get a vibe. Also a regular just to record in the loop. Don't necessarily want to chop up my sample always in serato.

Your freaking awesome dude you make it so simple
Yo homie just really made me feel confident in taking the true artist route not only being a writer but producing mastering both lanes, it feels easier learning the fundamentals on sampling, chopping and tuning thank you and merry early Christmas
That is a dope sample. More people need to respect Angela Winbush and her production skills. Dope chops.
Angela a goat
Angela winbush - tough
Didn’t even know she produced this!
Peace King. I appreciate your videos keeping things simple for me as a newbie in music production (I am a 57 year young female) from Plainfield NJ (home of P-Funk) Parliament and Funkadelic.
I’m older guy and I’m getting this unit soon so I can get started doing some remixes This guy is very good teacher

Never use warp. Way too much atrifacting. It's sounds like shit.
6:32 changed my life‼️
GLAD I COULD HELP
I wanna see a start to finish beat making process on MPC… could be sampling or played in, then sequence, then mix/master, to bouncing down…

@@noramoss totally agree. Video definitely need to be edited or even chopped into parts

Isley brothers are my favorite group of all time... i knew the sample as soon as it started.. play this all the time
That was dope
Thank you! I use the Akai Force. This tutorial helps!
Glad I could help
Dope beat my Boy!😄
Nice, I been on sampling O.S. I was pleasantly surprised on what you did to that sample...

@@GeorgiaMuscleFilms Thanks man, Can't wait for this!
That's the easiest explanation to sample into the Live 🎉
Glad it was helpful!
❤ i need something like this to get these beats out of my head. Thanks bro
Bro! Loved your videos before and now these how to videos are gonna blow up! How bout a video using the mpc and logic pro x together…maybe your usual process or using the mpc in controller mode
Got u
I see how you have a Roland sound Module in the video. Can you show a video on how you would use it with the MPC making a track
Will do
Brah I like commented and subscribed cuz this shit was useful af !! Bless 🙏🏾
Thanks
DOPE!
NICE!!!!! Killed it!!!
I’m loving it bro. I’m learning so much, you make it look easy. Hope to link with you one day.
🔥🔥🔥
I love your style and approach. You are so talented. Thanks for the inspiration!
Keep making beats like this man!!!!!
That’s fire!!!!!
Live life.🙌🏻
Thank you
🔥🔥🔥🔥 - How do you make like a second sequence playing different parts of the sample for a hook or just to switch it up?
This is dope my boy! Keep going!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Timestretch to make the sample fit your beat like a fast sample to a trap beat⚜ new orleans ⚜💯
Thank you for sharing! Subbed & liked. Something helpful that no one makes videos about is the MPC filing system. How to save, organize files etc.
Great video, thank you
Glad you liked it!
Love this.
"Not going tell you"
TH-cam: You're going to have to now.
You make some 🔥 beats bro ! Like seeing your workflow , how you matching the bass to the sample ? The key detect in the sample chop area ?
Use your ear. If it doesn't sound right, you can tune it by raising or lowering a few semitones and checking along in program edit.
Also a nice technique to get bass that fits is just to use the eq plugin to filter highs and mids from the sample leaving just the low-end which you can then boost and theres your bass.

Fantastic video brother.
Can you do a walk through on how you do the same with a record player.

Thank you so much for this!!! Beat 🥵 hot too 🫶🏾
No problem thanks for watching
Bra you real! Thanks.
Can you show how mix the beat inside Mac live to pro quality
🔥🔥🔥 Yo, can you make more vids like this with the MPCX? Also, do you only use stand alone mode? If not, could you show us how you work in controller mode too.
thanks for this useful tutorial
Dang bro, I fell asleep and woke up to my request for sample loading! 💘
Can we ask for an encore? Lol Something from classic rock..
Spend the night is the song
Are you using your imac and the plugins in it as a sound module for the mpc x?
Yep
Dope 🙌🏾
Thanks
This is “Stay The Night”
Please do a complete tutorial on making a beat with recording guitar into the MPC¡
Will do
@@GeorgiaMuscleFilms Dope, brother! If you have an MPC-X, it would be hella dope to do it on that one! Thanks!

Thanks for the videos. I would like to see a video about arrangement. I get stuck in loop mode once I have those two bars rockin. 😔
Will do
Dope video, appreciate it. 🙌🏾, Hey can you do a video on direct recording in a seq.
Yes will do
Nice tutorial.
Brah please make more I don’t wanna just watch you make beat even though u make fire beats. I love this video really helped me out… thanks
Great video👍…….I’m thinking of getting the One, but I’ve read that it only has 2gb of ram.Can you make a video about tips for saving memory on the MPC?
You can by a usb flash drive and save everything on there that’s what I do
@@yayyhy Yeah for storage that would be the best option since there are only 2gb of onboard storage, but the 2gb of ram are what make me think about getting an MPC.
@@EZ-nc8fr you should get it but i wouldnt store anything on the on board storage
Just got the One; I'm way more passionate about drum programming versus FL.
@@robertprince2651 really I think it’s easier to do different drum patterns in fl even though I don’t use fl anymore
I love me some “isss-LEE brothers” lol great video
Wow nice 👍
New to this. Can you take samples from.a phone ? Sorry if a stupid question
Fire
do all the mpcs function the same way what are the differences between all of them
I haven’t seen a detail automation using the q links and using them in different sequences with different xyfx
I tried to get into the MPC software but I’m so used to cooking up in Maschine I don’t have time to Lear a new program at the moment
dope
💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Traklib is the best legal way!😁👍🏽
What about a video on how you mix your songs
This was really helpful #Salute
Can u make a video on how to tune kick drums for trap?

Usually that means you have to slow the sample down a little bit or speed up the bpm of the sequence a little bit.

Do you load your own drum samples or load kits?

Do you have something muted and is your keyboard n drum machine plugged up to where you can hear them noth
@@GeorgiaMuscleFilms I figured it out , it was god putting me on restriction from my mpc ! I was trying to loop sequences on the tracks , I’m embarrassed, thanks for responding G
Thank you.
Where is a good place to get sound packs for the live 2?
Yo can you show how you would part different part of the sample on that same track
🔥
Can u make a video on sampling songs to trap beats at a high tempo like 140
Will do
Are you able to make multiple programs with the same music file that you sampled? (Like if I want to make a hook and change ups to the sample beat)
Yep
I sampled that same song back in 2012 in reason 5 cracked version lol
Reason 5 use to thump
vero cholo. big up!
Got a question. After I chop the sample and when I try to record it HOW DO I KNOW THE BPM OF THE SAMPLE?
You can tap the tempo with the tap tempo button
Can u make a video on how to tune 808
Will do
Do you use Serato Sample?
YES I DO IN LOGIC
