I use the grid but always nudge the drums. I nudge the hats and the kick to the right and snare to the left. Samples are different depending on sample but I always use quantize just to start so things are on point and then I adjust to give it swing.
And that's what make you a real one J
Same here. I do the same thing when I use the groove templates for quantization
@@DonThekingwhat's a groove template?
The hi hat in the middle of every beat placed 1/3 step to the right. So you can sequence the melodies along with that 1/3 step to the right.
Pay homage to him!! The biggest take away from this video is create your own swing!
exactly!!! appreciate you fam.
@@theycallmeheat no problem. Keep grinding !
In the same breath I could tell people to stop sampling and to create their own sounds! Dope video I’m sure it will help thousands of cats but stamping what technique is wack and vice versa is trash…
The casual listener doesn’t care about weather or not a track is quantized or not as long as they feel what’s being given to them……. And there’s something out there for everyone. This message is for the upstart now thinking they’ve been doing it wrong once they hear an opinion saying so. Do what’s best for YOU. Make dope MUSIC
We off the grid grid grid 🔥💯
yesssaaahhhhhh
I program them quanitized, but then i take them off grid one by one
I rarely quantize. However, I don't see what the taboo is about using it. As long as there's elements within the song that aren't "on the grid", you're good.
he slow and has to make conent to pay his rent becuse he def dont make money with his wack azz beats
Anybody know how to make egg fried rice? I tried the regular soy sauce but it still doesn’t have that Chinese taste. I’m so stressed out cause my fish keeps limping on the sofa and he ain’t even old enough to read. And not only that my brother is starting to have symptoms of pregnancy and he’s been using the weights correctly. Anybody know what to do?
🤦🏽♂️

did you put these sounds in the weekly sounds.. i like this..
On the mpc there’s a track option to humanize that I think works just fine
this is so true i always wondered why my drums sounded shit all the time. but it was because it was quantized and just so rigid! im not very good at playing haha but getting abit better. you got good content ive subbed
Appreciate you Jake!! Definitely allow yourself to create without the quantize, it just feels more natural. just practice laying down drum beats without any specific goal in mind.
@@theycallmeheat no problem! Thanks man I will do 💯
THANKS man, this tip is really meaningful when you can only make boombap in a DAW.
Peace, bro
THE BUTCHER COMIN 🔥🔥🔥
Like the video. We have our own natural rhythm. Snapped to grind takes that away. I'm at the point I mainly record audio no midi like I'm recording to tape(sometimes I am). Recording and practicing this way makes your performance better over time. If I'm doing house I'm more inclined to snap to grid but not always
yep, I usually keep the grid off & fix what really needs to be fixed.
As a person who was in a band for more than 15 yrs I now produce digital music and since day one I have had the concept of making my music sound as less digitally programmed as possible. Music is a timing thing, thats why you have count offs and metronomes. But I don't understand why u took the sampled loop off the 1? Leave the loop and just play everything else in manually. Something has to be on time because when you transition into bridge or chorus you would notice it large. And also why would you even pencil in the snares, just play the beat and everything else live, such as the bass line. And you would get that authentic band vibe if that's what you are after.
That’s probably why his drums were off so much
can you do a video making a beat with an 808 mafia type melody and boom bap drums
Dope video bro
You ever consider the MPC live.
Yes sir, i'm totally agree!

Guys dont let anyone Tell u its wrong to do this or do that. Programming and using quantize is an art aswell. A lot of Beatmaker Legends have been using quantisation and came up with timeless Beats.
true. this is all true, but when you want this certain sound. you have to do some unorthodox programming.
I hardly quantize these days but depends what sounds and what effects are used and what style of music, Boom bap and lofi sound dope off grid but Drill and DnB dont imo. My drums usually stay on grid when they come from a drum machine but sample chopped beats I keep it off grid.
It depends on the vibe. and how off is the sound.
@@theycallmeheat True there a beat I made a while ago and for one single hit the cymbal is way off, really annoying.
Quantizing is much better than it was but i still don't use it because i need to retain the human feel.
funny you said Benny that's who I thought as soon as you started. Beat is insane tho
I didn't know what a grid was lol until a few years ago. I been making beats since the Roland MS-1 (the grandfather of the Roland SP404MK2) came out and, a little before the MPC 2KXL came out.
(I never even used the sequencer on the 2KXL back then lol and, preferred live playing into daws).
hahahah. You OG out here. lol
@@theycallmeheat Gonna be 45 this year and, seen many of the greats at shows growing up Beantown inebriated new school beat making. (I'm lucky as all hell).
I must say though, out of all the youtubers on here making boom bap that your channel is hands down the best and, most informative for young and old heads.
This is so true I didn't have this problem I was using hardware now that we are using digital software it,s to perfect making your beat sound robotic ..
Yep. Gotta remove the computer aspect although we are still using a computer.
I'm a proponent of doing whatever suits the situation. Especially if you have good timing. If you have good timing, play freehand by all means. Unfortunately, most of the people screaming "NO QUANTIZE" the loudest are ones whose beats need it the most (no shots to the video maker, this tutorial is well done and informative) . In my experience, an SP 1200 double timed (for 48PPQ vs the normal 24PPQ) at 1/8th triplets quantize and 63% swing sounds amazing, especially compared to someone sloppily finger drumming on an SP 404 just to say "hEy bRo i dOnT qUanTiZe".
To the commenter who mentioned Dilla, his technique was deeper than just turning off quantize and playing (read Dilla Time). It also helped that the MPC 3000 has one of the tightest clocks of any drum machine ever made (even with the quantize off). He was an excellent programmer. This whole no quantize fetish has led to a lot of lazy beat makers playing freehand with no sense of timing under the guise of it being more "real", to suspect results.
🔥🔥🔥
thanks fam!!
You aint lying...let the grid go like 17 years ago
Period!! 💯💯💯💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
This was a great video! Have you ever tried using the groove templates when quantizing? I recently started making my own and I've been pretty satisfied by the results thus far.
👎🏿🤪
hahahaha!!!
*WORSE
Thanks 😅
7:05 looks pretty quantized to me.
Yep. My kicks sometimes are on point depending on the beat. Then I nudge the parts I want to be off.
@@theycallmeheat Yeah sure. But i thought quantizing your fingerdrumming-performance off cam in a video where you try to teach younger producers to stop using this function could be misleading to many, especially because you "nudge" the quantized notes afterwards perfectly on grid. But yeah, shit happens i guess ^^
Good video Fam!!!
Dobrze mówisz synu
I have never been a fan of quantizing my beats because it makes it more mechanical except for snares and hi hats something that needs to be locked in and that rare because like I said it removes the soul from the beat in my opinion.
Yeah normally I keep the snare on point & MAYBE the kicks as well. Just depends on the vibe for that beat. Thanks for tuning in fam!! 💯
bassline is fire🔥
thank fam!!

I don't know man if you dope you can make it work. Premier has said he uses quantization
It's needed in some cases, but don't let it be the soul of your production. Premier didn't have very complex drum patterns. So it worked for him, he def made it work. But my point was to show producers how allowing yourself to be free, will help your music production.
@@theycallmeheat I feel you and I mess with you tough I just think a lot of time TH-camrs don't know how powerful there words are. telling people not to quantize is just as bad as telling people you have to quantize it should be said that both ways work well but that's not the message the message is quantize or your beats will sound stale and plain. and also boom bap drums in general are extremely simple.
just wanted to add that to whoever is reading rather you quantize or not the beat can still be hot. don't try to impress other producers impress your listener. I've never in my life heard a fan of music say "I would have liked this song but the drums sound to on beat so I don't like it anymore " 😅 maybe the listeners you guys have say stuff like that 🤷🏽♂️
@@FonkedUpProductions and that's why I made the video to expound on what I thought & my feelings with quantize. I speak about NOT quantizing in other videos as well. Just wanted to go more in depth and help folks understand MY thinking.
Great F'n Video Bro!! Thank U!!!!
Thanks for watching fam!! 🙏🏽💯
I’ll expose you boy
Okay weirdo
