Who should I do next???

That Larry June Alchemist Project been on repeat for me. Alchemist ain’t never missed

Showing how to do it on multiple different daws and machines is awesome nice work. It’s important that the newer gen sees that the tools don’t matter .

Love how you went thru multiple Devices to achieve the same dope outcome. This is Hip hop ✊🏾

Never knew I can timestretch on MPC live and change the tempo efficiently like that! I've been doing random math changing the semitone til now. Thank you!

I've been listening to alc's beat all day and happened to come across this awesome video - perfect timing and breakdown thank you

Dope! I think it’s cool how this is explained as to how the different generations of samplers all can translate the same sample the same way.

My goodness, this is comprehensive yet with a simple explanation. Well done.

I want more old school MPC stuff. It can easily be applied to any sampler really.

What I like most about this video you showed us the same technique within the workflow of various MPCs and Daws

Recently found your channel and its sooo nice that you know wtf you're talking about. Subbed !

My dude. This was on point! Thanks for putting in the time and effort for this video.

Legend ! 🔥 great vid! Gave me loads of ideas! 🙏🏼 Thank you

Yo Ave, this is NICE bro!!! I love videos like this, digging deeper into classic producers/beat makers, and what makes them unique. Great job bro!🙏🏾✊🏾💚

This was one of your best videos Ave 🔥🔥🔥🙏✌️

Cold video bro ! The Alchemist has always been in my top 5

Salute Ave. This was a good video for people trying to understand how the sample chop game works. A good friend of mind in 1996 figured out how DJ Premier, chopped the original song for Jeru The Damaja song Ya Playin Yaself. It took him 2 days to figure it out. You know what equipment he was using to do it? The gemini sampler and Tascam 4 track. This is before I got my MPC 3000. He got that shit down perfectly how Preemo did it. Like you said, you have to have an ear for music. It took me a good while before I became nice at chopping samples. Learning that the original instrument players never played rigid. Anyway good video as always. Keep teaching brother. ✌🏾

Helpful as always🙌

Great video Ave. Thank you 💎

Thank you sir! This was super helpful and you have a new fan. :)

Great video Ave!!! Making me miss my 2500xl

This is amazing man thank you so much for posting this.

Thank you for the breakdown!

Great video Ave

I Love my 2500. Had it since again dropped it. 🔥 video

This was a dope tutorial 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Excellent ... I nice practical breakdown for people like myself who might have been intermediated by this type of equipment.. Still in Logic for now but I definitely see the benefits and the quality of sound.

super dope video and content!!

This was fire bro please keep them coming. Can you please do a master class for all the MPC 's like the 500 to newest one in 2023😅😊❤ and the ones with JJOSXL.

thanks for this, i have a mpc 1000 that ive been using as my main piece but it makes me just want a 2500!! sick video loved it

massively appreciated thank you.

Great great video Ave!! This is why when I find my own samples, I create perfect loops out of them!! For this very reason! Once done everything falls into place! That's why overall I think my style leans into cinematic!! It's similar to the jazzy loop the Alchemist flipped! You broke it down on different versions of gear to flip it on too!! Nice bruh!!🔥🔥🔥🔥

Great Work 👌

This was cool a nice lesson.

Crazy tutorial. Thank u 🙏

Nice video! Good stuff!

Yes to a MPC 2500 Master Class🎉

REALLY nice content!!!

always a good day when ave uploads

This is legendary 🔥

4:06 You're not using JJ OS, that's why you might be missing some options. But JJ OS gives you all of these options and more. Your MPC will get another life with the JJ OS, trust me bro.

I’m glad you showed this Thank You🙏

Thanks for sharing Ave, really enjoyed the 2500 sound. Can’t put my finger on it but the sonics are definitely different. Great job 🫡

Love what you do

This is tough🙌🏾🙌🏾

Great video

Nailed it 🔥🔥🔥

Love that sample bro🔥🔥

great job!

Columbia no cut my nimble ninja great video you are very knowledgeable on the gear and the process/procedures. I know a few producer's with very expensive equipment but are not well versed in how it works with other equipment. I like this strategy because if Gaga wants our tracks and loves the way the studio sounds were almost there. If she wants to use sl board's or nothing else and we only know how to use Yamaha and she walks for that. Everyone is fired !

Any advice on filming? The sound I get on the iPhone external mic is garbage. I bought a 1/8 cable to lightning to record sound directly in which is better but not by much. I was going to film and at the same time record everything into pro tools. I noticed the volume on your 2500 knob was almost at zero so I figured you were recording audio into something else. Any advice would be much appreciated. Great video.

You can press SHIFT and change the tune in all of them all together. I think the JJ OS also has time stretch. I would have to take my 2500 to confirm which function that was.

A clever man breaking down the work of a clever man. Fantastic.

Awesome Nice work

Also really easy in FL, just align it to the grid and do manual chops. Done manual chops a grip of times. Not as intuitive as with using a actual groovebox but eh is good enough. People have even recreated JDillas songs in Audacity lmao. If theres a will theres a way

Ave your a genious you've always got something interesting . Can you do this with the mpc 500?

This is dope ❤

I use that method now. Good video

I wanna thank you for taking the time out to explain but it doesnt help me if I do not have the perfect looped sample. How would I achieve that?

Nice Sample 🔥

You can actually chop , stretch and pitch with stock FL plug-ins . There are several ways to achieve this . For me though , I prefer analog / hands on a piece of gear as opposed to clicking a mouse or typing keyboard but it can be done .

thank you

love the lessons I miss my 2000 XL and My 4k🤑

Ah the MPC2500 is my go to …can’t get enough

I recently started chopping like that after a 2 to 4 count....fire

Isn’t there another way to adjust pitch and keep tempo without doing it with the process menu? So if I wanna rechange the pitch I won’t have to go thru the process menu?

Nicee 🌊

im not sure if you have jjos but on my mpc 2500 if i press mode and pad 11 it will allow me to pitch all pads up and down as a group at the same time as well as other edits

Every time I see an MPC video I want one more and more haha

Thank you

How does this type of workflow apply to their DAW using a simple drumpad controller like "MPD24" or anything similar?

Thank you 🫡🫡

Nothing like that AKAI though. Great video

So if your sample isn’t a perfect loop before you process it & time stretch will this method still work? On the MPC Live 2 side of things?

Reminds me how terrible and frustrating the stock OS on this unit was :-D These units were soooooo limited without jjos. I have doubta on the 32 slices technique though - if you check his video, some of the chops are much longer so I don’t think he blindly chopped to 32 regions…

Can you make a video of this same topic using Serato Studio!

Dope!

The most prolific!

Yupppp Super Dope

Bruh! Legit demo video

How did you get the loop from the live 2, to abelton? Or vice versa.

hey can you help me with MPC beats software program manipulation please, for some reason whenever i load up a program template and start recording drums , i use those templates which all tracks written in like drums, sythtube, keys and all that , now if i start by laying drums on the drums tracks , when i get to key and other track my keyboard doesn't play piano plugins or any piano sample if it's there on the template program i loaded , instead i find those piano sounds on my akai mpk mini 3 pads and not on the keyboard somehow

Wait a min.. what are those tiny little sampler things sitting around your 2500? I want ALL OF THEM! lol

bro i lit just got my 2500 today tryna get samples and drum kits in there from hard drive or usb can u make a vid how?

Dope

Thank u

Use the shift and Rotary dial at the same time, to move it quicker

Are the new generation of MPCs able to pitch change samples in the old/simple way (that results in the sample length changing as well)?

Top -can you do it with native instrumental mashine?

Is this done using the JJ OS or standard mpc functions. Just curious.

The MPC 2500 + jjos software has time stretch Capabilities. I'm sure you were referring to the stock MPC 2500 though Great video! 🫡

Simple, but effective

I miss my 2500 sometimes but I’d be surprised if anyone on an mp from that era isn’t using JJOS.

Amazing video, im saving up for a mpc rn and which one would you recommend a 15 year old producer?

Great video ! But I’m an fl user and I can accomplish something almost identical using Edison and slicex both stock plug ins.

I miss the cursor button too. They should have kept the layout of the studio black for the live.

the 2500 sound so so nice. should have put the track in mono in Ableton for a more accurate sound.

Can time-stretch on the MPC 2500 and 1000 as well...

I was jus asking today if solange quit... & look u have her vinyl wow

I fucked wit Al from "Hold you down" & "We gonna make it" beat ,but "Covert Coup" wit Spitta in 2010 made em a GOAT 🐐 for me in my books!
