DT - needed 6 secs of a sample and a drum resample to Spider-Man flip out that 1

i voted for ¥ and sleeps numb

Really enjoyed the entries for this. Had to go with kwun that shit had me stank face all the way through, and ¥ for the 2nd. But was tough all around, fam and sleep with the lens answering machine style always Lovin that sound and the mix too. Sleep on point with the sound. UNC has a very familiar style....can't quite out my finger on it, eh? And that MITs comments make no sense at all. These entries didn't reflect anything he had to say and all the entries were extremely well produced and thought out especially the beat tape styles. He says his entry was a "joke" and it definitely showed.

For those with a hearing range of 1000 - 20000 khz, I don't doubt it.



It's a book from the turn of the century. Mr T is in it. The title was very apt, I thought. My tongue was, however, very firmly placed in cheek. Obviously. Just as it was when I made the darn thing.



Well, who can compare to the master at his early peak? A comparison to his down-slope, I'll take. Thanks!



I don't use the MS-1 or 303 in high quality mode. I always sample Standard or below with the MS-1 and always Long on the 303. I just *don't* unnecessarily and pretentiously nuke everything to make it sound lo-fi when it doesn't need to. Like I said, you have to actually TRY to make even the 202 sound like that. I refer you to the beat I posted that was made on one. But if you're trying to do a whole set on one and time is precious, sure. But to make something that sounds objectively bad on a hi-fi machine with no real limits on sample time, 303 & 404 etc, strikes me as a bizarre artistic choice.



I do usually try to make something that moves me, yes. That's my style, sir. Unrelenting noise just doesn't get my rocks off. What can I say?

Glad it tickled you. It certainly did me! I had a veritable LOLocaust making it.



One should always moisturise. You'll regret it later in life if you don't.



Only on the drums. I literally just looped a bar or two of the samples as they were, resampled them in a row onto one pad (my first ever time using the resample method as opposed to the sequencer!!!) and nuked it with about 5 passes of the lo-fi effect. The drums were sampled to play back at 3 different speeds using the pitch mod. These were then played at random over the top, using universal Vinyl Sim with comp and flutter at MAX. And BOOM, a microwave classic was fresh out the oven!

Sorry to disappoint but the mod doesn't make the 303 a lo-fi beast, due to that machine's magic sample interpolation method and 44.1khz playback. You have to work hard to get it to sound grimey...refer to my words above.



I'm in the UK and we have the GDPR which means when you go to a website it has to get permission to use cookies. Some sites aren't so bad, as you can press one button for 'Reject All'... but cheapey sites like the ones they used, unless you want to be dataraped, you have to go through long lists and either tick or untick a load of boxes, and even then the language is ambiguous. Twas a shame as, if I recall, I have really liked some of Maxwell House's tunes before and it's even possible that he's one of the few that doesn't push the lo-fi nuclear button, I don't remember. Maybe I'll get tickin' and go back and lis'n...

Sorry if I offended anyone. Like I said, there's some good tunes there sometimes...it's just the noise obscures. But fashion be fashion...

PS - Does anyone know if the 'HEY YOU GUYS!!!' was Rosie O'Donnell? Specifically from the absolute CLASSIC Riding The Bus With My Sister?

for your information it's 200-12000 Hz, thank you very much



I thought I was being uncharacteristically hi-fi this time'round, I only touched the lofi button once and I didn't purposely push the compressor into clipping like usual




I thought we were just being silly for a bit

bingo orrr ding! Dong? hey you guyssss is from the tv show. I found it in my tool shed of classic TV themes/openers. again - nice usage
What are you using for playback with these 'battles' ? and what do you expect from a shitty doo wop recording from the 70's? also - the voice notes were from a leaked apple vnotes app that happened back in 2015. (Thanks for those SLF TAPES <3)

thanks for answering my q about the pitch knob usage. I was looking forward to hearing it on the samples. Maybe just maybe, if you dont troll us on the next battle, apply it and it will be more apparent. im truly curious

as for nuking fidelity. ..theres a case of 202's having a small capacity for samples. p6 too<-. ms1 ..like 30 secs of 2 channel right? You know this. one could say the SP culture is to nuke your sounds unless youre constantly bouncing out to other gear. with no/minimal rules, theres no excuse not to, so i get your point.
Maybe make a post stating how you get such fidelity while saving space. teach the kids? Be an example of what you want to hear. Provide the knowledge. Nephew gave you some pretty hi quality samples to work with

SP culture really started with the 404 tho, amirite? Where there are no real limits on sample time and yet the lo-fi sound became de rigueur.

As I keep saying, the 303 is super clean. No bouncing out is necessary. Plenty of sample time on Banks C & D. I always use the sequencer (unless I'm doing the LOLZ). Only limitation I have sometimes threatened to hit against is the number of pads and sometimes the polyphony but I usually gets away with it with a bit of jiggery pokery.

Mod stuff I'll post on mod page...

Here's a video for mine if anyone wants to see the foolishness. https://youtu.be/lM7PNBeDDns?si=banLYIPD7yflOc6z
Still checking these flips. I dig. And as far as collabs go, hit me at [email protected] and if its fire remember how I told ya the ayatollah rhymes'll smolder from behind the boulder i'll see my way out
