Mpc Style chops on 4o4

So i was messing around on the SP today and found the glory in delete mode. I dont know if this was common knowldege before but w/e lemme just explain

In delete mode the SP plays only one pad at a time. If you set all your samples in a bank to what you want with gate and loop mode off you can start ...

Re: Live shows?

I like messing with some of the effects when i have a live beat going. (delay, isolator, djfxlooper, way, reverb, echo) It can really add a bunch to what you're doing if done right. People overuse the fuck out of the djfx looper and that can get annoying quick.

Re: how often do you listen to your own beats?

Haha yeah man, Maybe a little too much. But i make my music for myself. I dont make it to " sell " or "release" it. Its my own work and i admire it as such. And like others have said. You make music YOU would like to listen too. Thats what makes music so magical. NO two minds are the same.

Re: Musical Theory Debate

I feel that listening to plenty of music that you love gives you an ear on what sounds good. Theory is important yes, but an ear is the root. Knowing the theory behind it is without question much better than not. Any MPC heads? Think of 16 level note variation. If you Know some theory you can apply ...

Re: SP404 or Maschine

If you feel like you need to be detached from the computer i suggest going with the SP. I know how a computer can be and let me tell you the SP changed the way i approach samples , look at music for what i want to sample, and go about making songs. The pattern sequencer im not too fond of though, I ...

Re: Sound Quality - Re-Sample Vs Pattern Sequencer

Resampling by along shot. My favorite thing about the sp is being off of the grid. Its solely the groove of whatever you want to put together.

Re: How will Different gear affect the sound of your Production

I can boost the Gain a bunch before it clips. It warms the sound up plenty. I do it before i pop it on tape. then I have this puig child plugin on ableton that i do specific settings on to get sort of a pumping action going on with the whole track.

Re: how the hell do you find the right drums??

For me, sometimes i can pull em from what i sample. Otherwise. I take a break and fatten it up with some sub bass or other snares/HH/BD from this Mophatt Module that i have.

Check your old beats and figure out what drum sounds you like the most.
