As an old school pianist into jazz, soul and funk I love people are still sampling old Leroy Hutson records and making new music... great tutorial!
really appreciate that thank you... its crazy how many different types and styles of beats you can make from one sample....
@@dubsbangermusic I am sure you have had the same experience as me with some records... sometimes you find kinda boring long forgotten jazz records of the 1970s on some obscure label but feed them into MPC chop em up and it's like a jazzanova record... love it.
facts i be listening to every note, sometimes you catch a 2 second sample and get goose bumps!!! @@neilloughran4437
Bro you've got boom bap in your bloodstream. Exemplary character!!! 💯

Bangin Dub
This one is a banger for sure. Dope neck breaking stuff homie. 🔊🔥💯
thanks my g i really appreciate that
Shit goes hard family. Crazy, watching this made me realize a lot of creatives really have their way own of doing things - which could be totally different from your way but with the same built outcome.
hell yeah homie... i still watch others make beats on the mpc and i incorporate things ive never seen or heard of, im always learning...
sick work bro!
maaaan this beat is so nice! loose but smooth i love it. always loved that leroy hutson sample. emotional as fuck yk haha. love these videos where u talk and shit. keep it up! entertaining as always
appreciate that thank... i always try to bring an emotion out in every beat and make it hit the heart
Next level chops right here! I flipped this sample a couple years ago but damn you are surgical with this shit 🔥🔥🔥
much appreciated homie thank you, this is the second time i sampled the same sample... i tend to do that a lot i hear something else in the sample years later
@@dubsbangermusic I’ve been there before.. you definitely did your thing
@@dubsbangermusic damn i was getting goosebumps so i'm relieved seeing this reply [saw your previous take on this, without the guidance
you hit those last two pads at the end perfect...
thank you, had to change it up somehow... sometimes the hardest thing about making beats is trying to change up the last bar...
Smooth ass sample love the tutorial love how broke things down learned some thangs today good looks
appreciate that thank you im glad you took something away from the video
That was dope
thank you much appreciated homie
Genial hermano 🔥 que buenas muestras bro puros beats de lujo 😎
Gracias hermano, me gusta hacer musica sencilla que suene bien
Very smooth beat, the type you can just kick back and vibe out to. I just did an experiment on one of my beats. I made it at 85 bpm because i always work in standard time. Then i made the same beat at 170 bpm and i have to admit it sounds alot better at double time, so much smoother and doesnt sound so squashed and robotic. Looks like i will be working at double time for now on.
thats dope af to hear... i personally feel that its easier to lay down your chops and hi hats and have them feel more natural hearing the double time and keeps your head nod on beat, everything will flow naturally
@@dubsbangermusic definitely. It gives it that much needed human feel.
thanks MAN !
Dope
thank you appreciate that as always!!!
Pure dopeness
appreciate that man...thank you
🔥🔥🔥
Dope. Simple and effective
Appreciate that, thank you
Man Dubs Banger your style is just fire and so on point; and, your sound is definitely very quality. Do you use any outboard gear, EQ or Pre-amp for your sound?
i really appreciate that, thank you... i dont use any outboard gear, everything is out the box... i double up my samples with one being only a filtered out bass sample... the drums are layered with 3 kicks two hi hats sometimes two snares... effects on the kicks and snares ive recently started playing around with air flavor, im not a huge fan of the sound on the x as compared to my 2000xl with the onboard 16 effects card... but the machine is cool and i can sample in different ways and load up samples as well into the machine with ease and go through drums...
Thats What I am Talking About Thnx Bro......
no problem, thank you for the feedback
This is super dope. It amazes me how everyone's workflow is so different. I'm moving from the MPC Ren to MpcX and was curious to see how you extracted the samples to assigned pads. I'm still in the rabbit hole because I worked hybrid on my ren with mpc and computer but I want to stay in standalone mode on the X. Peace and blessing my brother. Great work!
thank you so much i really appreciate that. its pretty much the same thing to assign it to the pads, youll get use to the workflow after a week of messing around with it... ive never used the ren but i would imagine that the programming came from the ren and evolved into what it is now... youre going to notice that the sound is different than conventional mpcs and kinda weak but you can raise the volume and add effects to it...great weapon of choice as you can do so much with it...
Thank you for reminding me that all of this can be so much easier than I've been making it
glad it helped, theres no right or wrong way to do anything its what youre comfortable with
Fire brother 🔥
thank you man means a lot
Homie got the instant classic chops lol
appreciate that g
you dope bro thanks G!!!!!
Nice 😎
thank you
Yo ma G!.. firstly gladly you’re back the streets missed you!.. secondly what happen to the other channel?… and lastly no 2000xl? 😊… looking good ma G!, stay all the way up ⬆️
much appreciated homie!!! i got locked out of my other channel so i had to make a new one... but yeah im out a year now back at the. beats... the xl is my other half ill never part with it... people be wanting to see more of the x but i still have a bunh of videos for the xl man... in my opinion t sounds way better than the x...
Niceeeeee‼️🔥
thank you!!!
Could sing a nice song to this.
Man I love making beats!
Me too!
facts
In your opinion what's the best way to get beats to rappers?
I'd like to see more new videos of you working with the X.
more on the way
👍🏼
I know you have your own flavor, but I hear 9th Wonder all in that joint 🔥🔥🔥
Plz do more videos explaining your process they really help
will do ill keep it fresh with different types of videos... thank you for this feedback
I agree bro... I recently bought an mpc x...first mpc I've ever own, and this helps alot on getting familiar with something I've never used before. Thank you.
I own a Maschine and I still learn from U and just apply the tips to the Maschine…
It’s not one to one but it definitely can be close enough that I find a way to incorporate those tips.
I can’t quite chop and play, always, but for those moments I chop and place..🤷🏽♂️🤦🏾♂️😂😉
💣🔥🔥🔥🔥🎧🎶🎶🎧

Adagio use this sample before on the track Hold Tight using Ensoniq EPS16+ in the mid 90s, Peace to you man Dubs Banger is very nice to see you fine now bro!
thats doep af... i use to have the eps16 i wish i never sold it......
Curious as to what your monitor was displaying during the tutorial. MPC software or something else? Good stuff man! ✌️
the db monitor?
Such an interesting video seeing your production technique. I have a couple of questions. What’s the advantage of using double time? Not really something I’ve tried before. Also do you assign your chops starting on the top row at pad 13 with the first 4, followed by the next 4 at pad 9-12?
ahhhh you pay attention... i assign my chops from top left to bottom right backwards because im able to fit all my chops from last to first as when you extract the audio from the sample. this is a habit ive developed using the 2000xl. when i would trim my samples i want them to be in order and its easier to assign the samples to the pad from last to first as the most recent audio track will be the first to come up... do you know what i mean? if i only had 8 samples i assign the last sample to the last pad and so on. i dont use from the first pad so my samples will be in order.
I use timing off on everything so using double time acts like a metronome and keeps everything aligned for me. I recomend you try using it, itll give you a natural swing...
@@dubsbangermusic yeah I was paying attention closely lol. Assigning from the top row backwards sounds pretty good. I usually end up scrolling all the way back to the first one that I extracted to assign it to pad 1. Your way could work well. I will give it a try. That double time technique sounds great now you’ve explained the advantage. Great tip. Keep up with these great videos my man.
@@DJFurio thanks man i hope that helps you and let me know if it works for you
@@dubsbangermusic will do
The reason to use doubletime on 8 Bars is because you alreafy have the metronome AS a Standard hi hat
I didnt noticed that für a ling time
But ITS more easy to place Drums and Samples with This orientation
The quantize is more groovy
People producing around me never told me
Great video and beat 👌🏻 I would love to see more videos like this and going into depth of sample chopping, I’ve been learning my live 2 for a bout a week now and been struggling getting my chops right and in sync with my drums, I started on fl a year ago and have no problems when using serato sample, I can’t figure out what I’m missing, it’s just not clicking at the moment, feel like sending it back 😂
to keep it real... take as much information in as you can, but its all going to come down to YOUR own workflow. just find your comfort zone my man it takes time and patience i can tell u that
@@jodieb90s yeh every time I get stuck I watch some more videos haha I am improving daily but it’s been rough at times 😂 thanks though 👍🏻
thank you i really appreciate that... whats the difference between serato and chopping on the live? im not too familiar with serato at all... as of right noe i would suggest just playing around with the starting points of you chops... give me more details of what youre having a problem with...
@@jodieb90s big facts
@@JayInTheLab1989 keep playing with the machine... i find that having a new piece of equipment it takes your brain getting use to and the more you play around with the live youll be a lot more comfortable with the new workflow... when i got the x i was lost and just kept messing with it and found my groove...
banger with another banger!!!!!! #booming my g .......kicked my channel off yesterday ....I also just got my 8 outs ......hopefully I'm cooking soon
thank you g, good to hear that homie... any questions let me know... did you get the on board effects card? i subbed to your channel, if you have a different channel send me the link
This is my channel bro …as for the fx card my g 😮😅😂 mpcstuff is running me dry asf I’m more after a mixer now but definitely want to cop 👮♀️ it along with the sd card scuzzy emulator and it should be a beast ….
@@dubsbangermusic that's the new channel below my g ......@mpc2000xl Is the channel name uploaded the card install and screen replacement video
hey bro I have a question when it comes to mixing, do you put all the samples at least 18 db so as not to saturate or directly lower the faders to the gain that you think is fine to start putting eq and comprecion, you know from the so-called gain structure I hope can you help me greetings

on the mpc i make sure the levels arent hitting in the peak reds... i dont have a set level for chops in general... it depends on what i want to be heard... you need to play around with your levels to find whats suitable for you... i dont have any gains for my 8 audio inputs theyre all set to 0
@@dubsbangermusic ok bro gracias por el dato es que yo vengo del fl studio y para mezclar hago mis estructura de ganancia a -18db para no tener problemas y dejar un buen espacio para plugins y aparte soy principiante en esto gracias saludos desde México
@@creamyfingersbeats2050 its a lot easier for me to reply in english for music terms... if youre still using fl studio, i would recomend that you send all your kicks to a single eq track, all the kicks that you use now get sent to another track where you will add compression to this one track that all kicks get sent to. the same applies for your snare and hi hats if youre using more than one. you make this template in the eq section before you make your beat so when you add you kicks and snare hi hats etc it will already be routed to the eq so you wont have to do -18db. let me know if this makes sense to you. Dime si entiendes esto. Empece a hacer beats en fl studio. gracias mucho mucho mucho
Ok so I don't understand... what was the merge thing that you did and what did that actually do?
merge instead of erasing it means when you copy from bar 1-5 and merge. when you copy bar 6-9 lets say and merge youll have the sounds you merged from 1=5 and 6-9 if you dont merge then everything you merged before will be erased and youll only have sounds form bar 6-9. do you get it? thats why i merge and not overwrite
Hi, Dubs. When you will be back with more beat making videos? It’s been a while since you posted this video. 😢
my apologies homie summer has been mad busy!!! maybe this week but next week for sure and every week after that there will be videos
@@dubsbangermusic That’s great! Take your time big bro, appreciate your music and your energy!
means a lot man thank you so much @@WorldReggae24
Do you think the Mpc 2500 would have a better sound than the Mpc x
in my opinion it does... but the mpc x is still a beast...
What program is on the screen of the iMac
adobe audition
Germany loves
thank you
Thanks for breaking it down like this, very helpful but you need a mic for speaking man 😅
appreciate that... i will definitely look into that... thank you for that feedback
How can I fix my splice file being wav instead flac format
ive never done this before but your mpc will be able to read the format
@@dubsbangermusic idk how but I have flac files instead an they don’t play any sounds
@@rickyentertainment9405 open your flac files on the computer in a program and save them as .mp3 and then throe them into your mpc let me know if that works... you can use any daw program you have or any audio editing software

appreciate that man thank you 🙏
Daaaam, bet you could hear the fresh air and smell the birds after that stretch! Stick to dope beats and not just dope this time bruh. Looks like you got a new camera and must have had access to an MPC at least. Stick to doing what you do and this channel will be the biggest mpc beat making channel on TH-cam. Shiiiiiiiit! My man.
much appreciated man thank you for that... i definitely have my head on straight... i got locked out of my old youtube but im here back building this one up... have a lot of good things going for me and yeah that was a stretch man i appreciate everything out here to the fullest !!!
Salut from Ukraine❤
💥 Promo>SM
you only folow the origanal, bruh no structer maybe more Praktis you need, you dont know the real tempo fromk the vinyl,!!!!! and i see that dont lie
Stop sample things and say u made a beat cause clearly u made nun
Are you using quantize?
quantize is off for drums, sometimes i have quantize on for samples... if the sample has kicks and snares in it depending on the style of beat i will use quantize for sample and drums so they hit at the same time... you can also use quantize off and have your samples trigger the kick and snare when hit so they play together... theres i=different ways of doing it... ofr this beat quantize is off as its just chord chops and vocals
🔥🔥🔥
Dope
thank you
