    if you add an arpeggiator infront of simpler, set simpler slice by BEATS and the beat to 1/4 or 1/8 , then steps to your likings and distance to 1st or 2st or 3st and gate to 101 and then play some notes on your controller to get the hang of it. tons of break madness. of course thats highly experimental and the way stranjahs showed it is the "maximum control about the beat way". anyway nice tut again dr. stranj ^^

    Sounds really polished. The mix and presentation on this, sounds spot on. Even with the cliche samples, it sounds like a banger of a track, that wouldn't have been unheard of in the late 90s.

    Man you are probably my favourite youtuber making FREE videos on how to make your music sound better. I have just recently started learning how to use FL Studio and your videos have been a really good way for me to improve! I love some of your older tutorials and your way of explaining what you are doing really works well for me. Great content man!

    this video has literally evolved the way i process my breaks, i used to chop them up manually (instant schooled by this video, and i have been making beats a while) this turned my 5/10 breaks now sounding like a 10/10. you learn something new every day. big up

    I use to chop up all my breaks in recycle. But I've found it so much easier now in reason 11 you can literally bounce any breaks in Rex and chop my beats up that's already in the DAW. So much fun and it nicely makes it crisp, snappy and tight. Respect Stranjah great channel.

    Wouldn’t just adding a small amount of reverb work the same as adding ‘the stretch’ ?

    • @STRANJAH
      @STRANJAH  22 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Reverb will add a tail for sure, but no, it isn't the same thing. The reverb is an 'effect' and will have that 'wet sound'. Using ReCycle for its stretch functionality, adds a very 'dry and natural' sounding extension of the slice, which blends seamlessly.
