    This beat is more complex than I ever imagined, much respect to Just Blaze

      guitarman64100 oddly enough, the beat was simpler than I imagined haha I guess I should’ve known it was a sample, but I imagined all the horns and strings being played live and original. The drums are crazy, but I knew that already. Just blaze is honestly nuts 🔥

    I’m not entirely sure but based on my internet research I believe it’s not Just Blaze playing those live drums for Show Me What You Got but it’s actually Kenneth “Bam” Alexander from 1500 or Nothin’, a collective of live instrumentalists that Just Blaze regularly worked with

    @tripwerd4191 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Also, wouldn't it make more sense to tune down the sample 1/2 semitones using the classic time/tempo algorithm before applying the more complex time stretching algorithm? That way the audio file would be a little closer to the target tempo before applying the primary time stretcher, maybe causing less distortion, artifacts, etc. because the stretcher doesn't have to work as hard. I always figured that was one of reasons Just Blaze tuned down the sample.

    • @Sandurz
      @Sandurz  9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +Drew Pirt I think generally when you do a pitch shift and a time stretch simultaneously it'll figure out the best way aka the simplest computationally speaking. So it would essentially do exactly what you say automatically, but without having to commit to a certain tuning before hand.

      Lightskin Bro Hey man, you probably know this by now, sorry I'm 3 months late. He was using Ableton Live if I understand your question correctly. Ableton's Warp feature allows you to place custom warp markers (the yellow tabs) on the beats you want, and you can time-stretch the piece to the desired tempo
