How to Make Your Drum Breaks Sound HARD! // Using Sample Rates to Our Advantage

Рет қаралды 25,617

Күн бұрын

To date, I have been creating all of my drum patterns. So I thought it was time to talk about using full drum break samples for hip hop beats. Let’s make a hard boom bap beat using a vinyl drum break sample and the MPC One! In order to make the drums KNOCK, we are going to be playing the sample rate of the MPC.
For this beat I used the MPC ONE as the standalone tool to flip the samples, and sequence the bassline.
I hope you enjoy the drum break sample based beat, and I hope the video provides some inspiration for your own production. I will be in the comments, so let me know if you want to see more videos like this one!

You learned from the OGs. I used to have to speed up albums because the sample time was like 12 seconds on the MPC 60 and S950. Well done Kiddo 💯🔥

Wow, what a dope beat and a sick tutorial. Loving your channel bro. I have two questions if you’d be so kind: 1. Do you know if it is possible to resample on the 2000XL? 2. When you chop up your samples like that, are you just recording 4 bars of the song and then splitting them equally into the 16 pads? I would love to see a detailed video on this. As you have the MPC One where things can be more automated and you have a smoother workflow I sometimes miss some steps of what you do. I am trying to apply your teachings to my XL

@MattDiamondMDE 2 жыл бұрын

I'm not sure of the workflow regarding chops, but to resample any sampler, just have the out L and R into the input L and R. There of course maybe a internal digital workflow to do it, this is just an analoge way

@MuhammadLaher 2 жыл бұрын

@@MattDiamondMDE I was just about to say that’s a good idea, (in theory it still is), but then I realised that as soon as I go to the record screen on my XL I won’t be able to play the sample. I will have to use my laptop to sample back in (after tracking out). It’s going to be a fairly long workflow but it’s the only way I can think of for the XL.

1. sample rate of MPC One is 44.1 khz 2. there are effects and plugins that let you change the sample rates which is much faster!

@rd-cv4vm Жыл бұрын

can you change the sample rate per individual pad?

@AlphaCentori 20 күн бұрын

The compression brought up the room reverb and background noise which is not really good in my opinion. We can also hear the turntable rumble….and finally you can reduce the sample rate just by adding many different plugins that does exactly that.

@The_Sound_Technician 8 ай бұрын

Also are you extracting from your compressed sample? If so does the compression stay on the extracted sample?

@DB3TheOriginal Жыл бұрын

Ryan. I need help with understanding bass. Sometimes when I get done with a beat I find it being the hardest task to add. Sometimes I don't use it & just rely on loud kicks to make the beat hit harder. So My question is what did you use as a bass to put on this beat? Is the bass from the sample? Hopefully this question makes sense.

@jeremiahkoecke2584 Жыл бұрын

One shot live bass samples, some saturation/overdrive, and maybe sidechain the bass to the kick. For boom bap you really don't have to do anything super complex, just find the root and play when the kick hits, and then add some fills here and there to keep it interesting.

@SergioMartinez-el8kg 11 ай бұрын

what compressor did you add on the break ??😮

@freezerman5871 2 жыл бұрын

Just for my understanding, there is no 'sample rate' function in the MPC ONE? I had that in my 1998 Akai S20 sampler, and currently the Polyend Tracker has a bit rate menu, that tels you lower the bitrate for crunchier sound.

@RYANMAKESBEATS 2 жыл бұрын

Great question! There is no way to adjust the sample rate at which the MPC One records. There are built in plugins that you can use to lower the sample rate after the sample has been recorded, but I find there is a much better result when either recording the sample at a higher speed, or resampling the sample locally. It would be nice if this was added similar to some of the older MPCs. Thank you for watching!!

If i was Barry White's drummer, I'd be suing you right now. Why not sample your own performances and not steal other people's talent? That's the mainstream now though so I kinda get it. I miss the old days. Real music talent is obsolete these days. I love my MPC One but use it as a drum machine and song arranger. I admit I'll probably modernize and do some sample based music too. I'm infected.
