Re: Rules & History (last update 06.05.2011)

IMO pre production sample editing should now be allowed given that so many new users have an sp404mk2, and that machine has pitch shifting.

Perhaps even limiting pre-production to pitch shiftng, or other basic sample editing functions. (IE.) No effects.

Re: Drums...

Mostly breaks chopped, and sequenced, but sometimes layer in ie.kicks from a kit when the break kick lacks thump.
I'll use kit drums too just sparingly.

Re: Casio SK-1, SK-5, SK-8

EQ tip. The max sampl-rate is about 9.38khz I think so set your lo-pass filter to half of that about 4.7khz.
This will cut out a lot of the 8 bit noise floor hiss. Then if you want to boost from 5-10k you won't have tons of hiss on your samples.

Re: sampletrak users

Cheapest way to get close to the sp1200 sound!
No I never owned an sp, but I have a 224.

The 224 is probably pretty similar but warmer, and not as crispy for snares unless you eq.
At 16khz probably even a little dirtier. Just eq the hats, and snares to get the sp smack.
Kicks with low pass are ...

Re: Boom bap beat sp505 and Renoise

Some smooth shit!
Just picked up a 505 and haven't made nothing with it yet.

What's this site, the new Soundcloud?
I'm so behind the times. Still figuring out Instagram

Yeah it's like SC without upload limits.
For that one I sampled into the 505, and then resampled into Renoise where everything ...

Boom bap beat sp505 and Renoise

Samples were treated in the 505 then resampled into renoise then sequenced.
Vibe is 90's hip hop.

Ext. source button.
The 505 is a little slow dealing with long samples, but otherwise one of the better sp's.

Re: BEAT BATTLE #267

I'm late too. Love the song how it has open hits, and enough ingredients to make a whole beat without pulling outside sources!
I might take a crack at it anyway just because.

Re: MPC500 review

It's not really even that limited when you think about it.
Just a small screen that makes navigating folders not much fun.
Navigating functions however is pretty straight forward, and has more features overall than a 2000, and probably even the xl. (filters/resampling with fx/mute groups).
