- In this video I talk about micro-chopping - taking tiny parts of records and arranging them to make hip-hop beats. This logic should hopefully apply to all types of samplers and is quite an old-skool technique but its still just as fun on modern gear that has larger memory! Give it a try and see what sounds you can get.

your the GOAT this method opened up so many possibilities
Glad to help you man! Hope you get to cook up some heat with this method!
Thats how I used to chop samples before I knew anything about chopping and all that. One of my first samplers was a yamaha su-200 and it worked really well for that type of sample chopping. Had a killer filter on it to imo.
Nice man yeah just replied to someone saying the same thing. When I started I would only take tiny parts to sample. Now I know a bit more i can make it work better! Would love to mess around with something like that yamaha!
Dude, this is so inspirational and equally insightful. You just gave me the motivation to break out some records i picked up a little over a week ago, tysm ✌️
Glad to hear that man! Cant wait to go digging again once I'm out of lockdown
@@spvidz i forgot you were in lockdown! I live in Florida (unfortunately). I hope youre doing okay, how long will it be this time?
All good man yeah. This one is a month and ends next week hopefully 🙏
this sounds amazing, man. every time you upload I lean something new. thank you so much!
Glad to hear that man! Thanks for checking out the content 🙏
Wow 10K subs, nice work mate!!! This beat really came together nicely too. Your live performance skills are awesome too.
Thanks a lot man yeah really happy to get past 10k! The real work starts now 😁
Yeaaaaah! That's how I preferred making beats back when I sampled a lot! It creates a much more interesting sound to my ears and i love it.
Agreed. I’ve been stuck making the same kinda beats for so long - this has really helped me get some more interesting patterns for sure! Thanks for watching ma guy!
I'm happy you returned to the 404. When you pulled out the 555 I thought you was gonna abandoned the 404. Dope video champ.
I’ve hardly used the 555 haha. 404 is always a go to just because of size and I think maybe habit a bit too. I should definitely spend some more time on the 555 though
Dope man. I like to make beats the same way on the 404. I sometimes reverse a few chops and vary the length of some too, playing micro chops with more lengthy chops in the arrangement. Great choice of samples too man, it's dope when the chops play so well together.
Awesome man yeah not something I’ve tried since my very early days of learning to sample but it can definitely work! Cool choice of beat making I’ll have to try reverse more. Never touch that button!
Yay, looking forward to the new sample pack!
Nice one man yeah should be out in the next couple of weeks hopefully. Most of it is done now! Cheers for watching again 🙏
These beats are coming out great man, love it. I think I’ve been doing this a bit with the 202 without really knowing what it’s called because of how short the sample time is lol
Haha nice man yeah the 202 kinda makes you do it due to the small memory space. I’ll have to try it on that too! Thanks for watching!
Another dope video bro. 2nd and 3rd beats were beautiful. It was a great explanation on micro chops. Would it be possible to see how you go about choosing each micro chop. Is there a particular method or a way you go about finding the right sounds? This is what I struggle with.
Thanks man! Just try and search for different notes so that you can create a progression. Also just be open to experimenting. There's no rules really about whats going to work just just gotta use your ears and see what sounds good together!
@@spvidz okay thanks man, I’ll keep practicing and experimenting and see where I get to.
3:12 Caetano na emoção
Love this, would love to see a vid on the mfx 22, has such a cool sound but I don't understand it, and I can't find any videos on it, amazing content though 😊
Can’t remember which one that is off the top of my head but will take a look! 👌
you gotta resample with the isolator on full everything until it’s the right volume bro
Getting jnsang vibes from this learned so much from this would love to see more methods with the SX much love
Super nice beats, specially the first one, great sample selection. Keep up the good work mate, much love
Thanks a lot man! Appreciate that 🙏
Sounds like it's saying "Campbell's Soup"
Another great vid, man. Thanks for sharing the knowledge.
No problem man, appreciate you tuning in
Love these tips. I just got my SP404 OG a few weeks ago and your videos have helped me quickly adapt to using it. When you micro chop, do you generally keep it to one song, or do you ever sample from multiple songs? Thank You.
this was one of the tightest vidz yet
Yo man appreciate that! Thanks 👌
damn that second beat was fire! That DX7 is poppin
Thanks for watching man! Appreciate the comment 👍
Great video as always. I thought that you were going more micro then that. I mean, that's regular sampling for me chopping notes like that. For me getting breaks or loop is "macro-sampling". :) Micro-sampling for me is sampling smaller bits of sounds. A friend of mine (DSTR) did all his albums sampling each small sounds between drums and rearranged the small bits into beats. All that with an MPC1000. The good thing about this is nothing is unusable but the bad is that it's so much work to make a beat. I think that's what finally made him move on.
You can still hear his stuff from a couple a years ago at Neferiu record (I won't post links because of youtube...).
Interesting man yeah guess you can take it as far as you want, for me this is very different from the style that i ususally chop. I'm usually sampling bass note to bass note in a progression. I think I saw a video of Dilla doing a similar thing where he chopped in between drums. Like you say very time consuming! Maybe fun for a beat but a whole album would be painful lol
regular sampling indeed
Bro seriously you read my mind with the last uploads
haha glad to help you at the right time bro! Funny how so many of us are thinking the same things. Cheers for watching man!
Really good video!! Thanks
Excellent content mate, big up! Vids get more and more technical and creative
Yo thanks man. Really appreciate that. Glad you are digging it 🙌
The biggest driver of microchopping is that back then they couldn’t digitally isolate a voice sample from a drum sample etc (not easily anyway) so you had to take the voice with the kick with the snare. It takes all of it and rearranges it in a beat. J Dilla was the master of it. See: “Don’t Cry”
Thanks for the info man yeah sound right and I love the whole of Donuts!
@@spvidz ayyye…honored you took the time to reply. Awesome video sir.
What dilla did with that sample was crazy!
can we do that now ?? the ai splitters suck
@@kirankrishnaswamy8088 surely can. It’s just a Sampler-sequencer plus an audio source of your choosing...turntable if you wanna go full old school. Chop out the drums you like, taking whatever goes along with them. Record/Play/Stop recording. Tap sample buttons in different orders until it makes your friends’ heads nod. You’re effectively turning an existing song into a soundboard to be played.
Sounds good
MPB!
Hope I come across that 1st sample 1 day
Great tutorial as usual bro and ALWAYS helpful!!!🙏🏾✊🏾🔥🔥
Nice one ma guy! Appreciate the continued support!
Another great video man . Thanks
No problem man! Appreciate it and thanks a lot for being a member too! 🙌
Underrated video.
Appreciate it 🙏
Great video. Thanks a lot. Just recently bought a sp-404sx. Originally I hoped to do something I have done on my po-33 on sx but found out the sx has it’s own limitations and strength. I think the micro-chopping can be one of the good ways to make a beat on sx
Welcome to the gang! If you still have both they work well as a pair!
@@spvidz Yes I do! Thanks again for putting out all these awesome videos. I learnt a lot from them.
Glad to hear that!
Micro chopping is great because you can do what you want with your chops no matter what tempo. Have you considered putting the chops thro the 202?
Another valid point yeah! Lots of flexibility with this technique. Thats a good idea too yeah would be cool to put some Filter 1 on and re-pitch!
Great stuff as always!
Nice one man, thanks for the continued support!
respect the latest sp videos sold my 404 but just got the 303 finally.
nice information..
Glad to hear that man! Happy beat making 👍
@@spvidz these help a lot thank you.I got my drums down but still cant chop like that.
havent been able to make lofi stuff but im trying too.
ty again.Glad to try the 303 too..
@@dragonmodel9262 It will take some time to get good at chopping, just listen where the notes change in the progression and work with those! Glad to hear the drums are down though :)
💥💥💥
POGO is the best example of micro sampling parts of movies and songs to create his own music
Nice! I need to sample more movie soundtracks!
Yeah pogo's the goat
Great stuff!
Thanks for dropping in man!
nice beat
Thanks for watching ✌️
Dude you’re great with the finger drumming. Simplistic but impressive feel. Dig it
Appreciate that man! Was mad complex doing some of these patterns haha. Cheers for watching 🙏
this. Can you (if haven't already) talk about finger tech? Just a thought as the previous comment is spot on.
Yo man there is a finger drumming one in my archive but i can definitely do one about playing samples at the same time too!
Skills!
Hope it was useful man! Thanks for watching
Dope vid!
Cheers man, appreciate it!
thats hard!
Thanks for watching!
u should review all the mfx on the sp404sx
I do have a series about the MFX and planning on covering them all one by one. Need to revisit some already though as my opinions have changed a lot over the years! Thanks for the suggestion though man, maybe I should do a run through of all the MFX on a sample for a single vid too! th-cam.com/play/PLVoItRMMtSwsk5WdbXzTQD0MFa73opYIt.html
One thing I get stuck on is expanding into bridges, choruses, etc. I come up with dope loops, bring different instruments in and out, and play with effects. But, I need some clarity and structure around the process of going from having a loop, to having an entire song, so that it doesn't get stale after a few bars.
I've been meaning to do a video on song structure for a while actually man so i'll make sure its on the list, definitely got a few ideas that could help you and others out!
@@spvidz thank you! Looking forward to it!
Listen to songs that have good arrangements, make notes and apply that to what you are doing
Wow. Very nice. I would like to have the chance to download the samples that you use starting at about 7:00
The samples aren't available for download sorry man, keep digging and you will find something similar! :)
@@spvidz thank you anyway :(
first beat is so nice lol what's the sample?
Genuinely cant remember for that one sorry bro. Been a while since I uploaded this one
Do you chop on the sp or on a DAW and then import it?
Usually I would chop on the SP but depends what workflow I’m doing. Sometimes I just make beats in ableton - do all the work in there and then run it through the sp for the fx
@@spvidz awesome
My biggest grip on the sp404 is hitting the bpm i want with it's very limited time stretching. It was so much easier on the 2kxl
Yeah repitching and time stretching sucks on most of the SP models - the 202 being the exception. MPC is amazing for it!
@@spvidz thankfully I have a 2k making it's way here and it should arrive by December, I love the sp404 and it let me work in between MPCs but I have to say I might never use it as my main piece again as long as I have the mpc
@@spvidz the xl was also my first sampler so it's probably natural that that work flow is the one I like the most though, I think for the right person the sp404 is a perfect machine
Yeah they are very different. I personally find making full beats on the 404 quite tricky these days but it really depends what kind of sound you want too. I do need to spend more time on the XL though for sure!
So just using those small chops keep you from getting a copywrite violation?
No - I heard thats what beat makers used to try and do in order to dodge copyright but I imagine the laws got updated to stop the loophole. Using any amount of copyrighted audio is not legal unfortunately!
Where the sample from ? 🙏🏼
what's your opinion about Sp 404 MkII ?
Overall I really like it. It cleans up a lot of the beat-making headaches from the SX/A. Its not perfect though, the sound is a little plasticy compared to the legacy SPs there have been a lot of bugs. Roland are releasing updates for those which is good though
what is the original sample?
There’s 3 samples in total but I only share them with members sorry man. Hit ‘join’ if you want to find out more 👍
Two ways this video could be better: 1. We need to hear the song you sampled so we'd get an idea of what to listen for. 2. You'd need to explain whether you'd chop the samples using adsr or ahd or one-shot sampling and why and whether there are circumstances where you do each. Other than that, not a bad tutorial.
Hello !! PleaseThis machine got a software ?
The only software is for importing samples. It’s a stand along sampling box

Micro chopping/sampling was 1st done by J Dilla... thats facts..
Hmm not sure if this "Micro", to me this is normal sampling. "Micro" might be the one that is even less than a half second.
True enough man. Can't remember the video content tbh but for me these samples are most likely a lot shorter than what I would usually use
Hi, I am using the 404 sx for some weeks now and I was wondering, if there is any practical use for the "VOICE TRANS" effect?
lol not really man no. I hardly ever use that FX
@@spvidz oke xD
might do a video about this topic and see if anyone can come back with any ideas!
Brazilian music!!!
Tbm percebi

Yo thanks for watching man!
Sample is fire
Yo thanks man appreciate it 🙏
That’s a Brazilian sample tho lol
You CANNOT sample music without permission, no matter how short or long the sample is. Copyright is copyright. And if the sample is recognizable (hell, even if it isn't recognizable), you're using another person's intellectual property in order to construct or enhance your own.
You may have heard of "fair use," a copyright provision that permits you to use 10, 15 or 30 seconds of music without copyright obligation. That is, you understand that you can use a short section of a song without paying a fee. Yet, you're wondering how exactly this works. The short answer is that it doesn't work.
Samples are an embedded part of hip-hop culture. Appropriation is part of the production process. ... But regardless of the arguable artistry of the sample, it's legal matter baby. There's always somebody who owns the rights to the original composition and/or recording, and those somebodies will be looking to get paid.
Copyright protection can last for a very long time. ... The duration of copyright protection depends on when the song was created: Songs created on or after January 1, 1978, are protected for 70 years after the death of the individual author.
I still sample no matter what the copyright rules are. 😊
Tihi* me too
