Everyone bashing him for stating pros only but I myself have been using splice for 8 months and I only have good to say. The only drawback is I am left with too many credits.
When I started getting sick of Logic drum sounds I just started recording my own sounds with my mic. Just by hitting random objects around my house, and modifying the recorded audio with my assortment of plugins (I'm obsessed with Soundtoys 5 lol), I've managed to come up with some pretty sweet drum sounds. Maybe I should start using Splice though just to have more options.
The combination of splice and that is probably the finest! Because splice is very fast for navigating through juice and crisp... +youtube for podcast stuff +serum and you are sailing on a huge ocean of possibilities
You have literally read my mind. A lot of artists suggest to stick to limitivity to unleash creativity... But it sometimes doesnt work no matter how good my music theory is and i am using the same old stuff. Will consider to get splice into my work pipeline!
I only use Splice for Drum samples, FX, Vocals and Cinematic effects. Knowing that almost every producer probably heard the same melodies on Splice as I have just doesn’t feel right.
Same here. Two producers can use the same drum sounds because after mixing, their drums will sound completely different. But every once in awhile I'll check out the melodic samples too because two producers won't flip a sample the same way.
I've been using splice for 3 months. I got to say its worth it. I find myself using alot of one shots or loops that I chop up. Their library is always growing too so it feels unlimited. Downside is if you dont change the samples you might hear another producer using it. Other than that its all positive. I wish they lowered the price though like 5$ for 100 credits and 8$ for 200 but the price currently is ok.
dude i fucking love splice. I just started making beats using garageband as a total beginner and within like a week and doing a lot of research on how to make music, things actually sound pretty good. i see a lot of people shitting on splice saying you aren't original if you use it etc. but you don't have to just use like a straight up full sample without changing anything or adding to it..by time everything is combined together it's totally different, or from like a 15 second loop you might only take 3-4 seconds of it that's like 65% of the way thru it changing the whole vibe of things entirely. still very much an art form to comb thru thousands of short sounds and turn them into a song. it's a great way to start for someone with no background using instruments. i just love music, wrote my own stuff to people's beats for like the past 8 years and figured i'd give it a try. turned out to be the most fun i've ever had. it's allowing me to make beats that i love, and it's motivated me to get a midi keyboard, logic pro x, and build up a decent little home studio. i honestly don't have the knowledge yet to make a completely original all me without any help song, and I admit that. splice is so amazing for beginners. and let's be honest, regardless of your ability to play instruments, every instrumental i've ever heard sounds extremely similar to something else and was clearly influenced heavily by another sound....which is why we have extremely distinguishable genres that sound a whole lot alike...by time i'm done piecing together all types of sounds from splice it sounds every bit as original as anything else, and it opens up the creative doors so widely because none of us would ever think of all the great little one offs and melodies on there that we can incorporate into the songs we make.
@@PatrickBreenMusic Lovin' it! It's sturdy and does everything I wanted it to and more. I do have some issues using the build in DAW mode with Logic, but I don't mind that too much since I've mostly switched to Ableton by now. No worries, man! Keep it up :)
Splice is awesome. I didn't even know what the hell it was when I bought it. But after learning a little bit about producing and how expensive it is. I've learned to appreciate how much value they bring for $10 a month My only criticism is.the way the downloads are stored. So many files, so when I pull it up on my daw it takes forever to find what I'm looking for. I started moving all my sounds to another folder so it's all neatly stored and ready for me.
Thank you for your clear-cut no-nonsense way of expressing your thoughts on Splice (and services). I can really appreciate your comments and you did give me information I had not previously known. Stay safe and be well. I'll be watching! 😉
I like splice. I think some of my best pieces were made with those sounds. I used to dig vinyl but could not really release much because it was so dependent on obvious samples.
It’s pretty cool man. You’re one of those dudes who plays every instrument really well, so Something like splice May not make a ton of sense when you’ve got all your “bases covered” - but give it a try, I think you’ll dig it.
Bro, I've been so riddled with tutorials. I completely forgot about using Ultra beat. I just started producing my own music and it's heaven. Thank you for the info man!
I too have been using Splice for the past year (same $7.99 level subscription). I don’t use it as much as you seem to and that is a shame. I am going to use some of your tips to inspire more productions. Thanks. BTW, I gave like a thousand credits rolled over now, so I got to get on it.
This is a great channel. I look forward to more videos from you and hopefully they come weekly. One thing I highly recommend you do which may seem to contradict your plan for the rest of your videos or UA-cam gameplan. And that is to view your channel almost like a Netflix subscription and as much so as a television series or tv show. Your first season to have a couple of introductory episodes which you can map out however u want with the main goal being keeping the attention u have from viewers to keep them coming for the next one. Not with giveaways tho THATS one way. But for each “season” to have a primary story line with a beginning middle and end and without getting too much into your personal life until you’re fan base has increased exponentially from what is is now. TThink of yourself as a director and you’re gonna tell a “story” thru UA-cam videos or episodes. Doesn’t have to actually be a fictional story or a playlist of tutorials but ur creativity is the limit to the story you will tell. With this approach it may seem like your music production skills will be taking a back seat, but really its not. People with talent recognize talent. Even those who don’t have the eye to recognize they will be refreshed to see another new “episode” u have to offer. . And this isn’t to just follow the trend this is just what’s working and it works for a reason. This is just a recommendation as I like what you offer and I can see u with a bigger UA-cam following and I hope u keep those followers with more coming. I love this channel so far. I hope to see u soon.
Brandon Duran hey man, thanks for you comment. Glad you’re enjoying the channel and appreciate the feedback. I’m definitely doing my best to get you guys content every week. I’m definitely interested in experimenting with some varieties of content. This comment was actually really helpful and insightful. Thanks for sharing all of this with me! Cheers pal.
Hi Patrick! I've been binge-watching your videos (particularly those about MIDI controllers). I'm a singer-songwriter/recording artist and I'm just starting out with music production so these have been very helpful. I started with the free trial of Splice and it's been fun. Thanks for the awesome content!
Thank you so much for sharing this. I’d been considering Splice for quite a while and never got around to it. Your video helped me see value in using it. I also just subscribed. Great content. Much success brotha!
You also don’t need to download a sample if you’re just searching for a creativity spark of inspiration. Just listen through them and once you find the one you want listen from the splice app itself without download. That’s what I do. Now if I really like the sample, I’ll download it.
I totally drop samples from Splice as a starting point, and sometimes I end up using something different, but the jump-off was a Splice loop or sample.
You can literally make a beat sound like it was made from a professional recording studio but it was made on phone thats how ugh quality their sounds are. Goes to show music is music and you dont need all that extra stuff. Just gotta be open minded
Same her I use splice for drumloops and drum sounds for my fl 20 creating my own kits bro great video oh by the way I pay $9.99 a month worth it tho bro
Thanks for your comment Andrew! Splice has changed a little bit since I posted this video. Here's some more info on the updated plans and features: ua-cam.com/video/_kvSuB-n3dY/v-deo.html
Love Splice! Just also signed up to this site called Mixxed. Similar to Splice. Not quite as slick but way cheaper!!! I think they are new to the game so worth keeping an eye on.
Starting using it close to the end of August, so not even a full 30 days in as of right now, but I am after mostly one-shots, the loops sound great, but I like more control over my music and would rather use VSTs for everything outside of one-shots. Great video my friend.
I have the mpc live ! It is splice integrated I think I'm going to get a splice subscription so I can use it within my akai mpc live thanks for the video it incouraged me to go aheaded and get sice!!
I've been using splice for a couple of years, it's pure brilliant! This coming from someone who had a old mpc1k and would chop drums and riffs out of old vinyl. I like I can pick what samples I want out of kits without purchasing entire kits I would never use a whole kit. I do the 7.99 option and have around 2k credits lol
@Andrei James I share the account with my son but we're in the same house but on two different computers so I'm not sure if what you're asking is possible from a different IP address
What does one shot mean? You use one time or add the same one shot onwards? You mentioned Serum. Isn't hat a separate library or can you use Serum from Splice?
When I try to combine two or three small videos to make one video the second and third videos are always blacked out with only voice. How can I stop this
Patrick, Thank you for this overview video. This did provide understanding of this tool I was curious about. I am more a Composer Cloud kinda creator but I like to look beyond my nose. Take care and stay healthy and safe Bro.
3:22 - "and all you have to do is drag your sample onto ultra beat, and it loads it in automatically for you" ........ if you had to manually drag and drop a sample onto/into a program, it didn't do it automatically for you.
I see splice as a great tool that I want to know fully understand what rights do I have to the music I download as a member paying a monthly cost. Is that music mines, to be used however I wish, or will there be any future legal risk and fees to using the sample music? Simply, I was recommended by a friend to use a splice for finding a podcast theme song for my show, purchase the sample, and keep or end my membership whenever? Whether that is right to do or not, can I do that if it isn’t having to pay for a music producer and or going on a site like a freelancer for someone to give the job to? I don’t want a lengthy process and I don’t mean to play a large amount for something I can find myself. What are my options?
I like some of splice samples I’ve been subscribed for a few years I personally feel some samples or sound kits are over processed. Meaning a lot of work is already done you can literally just drag and drop sounds or loops into your daw or whatever your working on. This is cool for new comers or new beat makers I personally like to do my own editing and processing from scratch so I limit my use or selection.

Wow who knew
Much Love! HareKrishna&GodBless❤️🙏
Everyone bashing him for stating pros only but I myself have been using splice for 8 months and I only have good to say. The only drawback is I am left with too many credits.
I feel that
They need a cheaper $5 subscription option
Yes, my thoughts exactly. Hence why I said as much in the video 😂😂
Appreciate you Juke 🙌🏻
@@RiZeLegiT It's quite inexpensive.
Splice is dangerously good. The second I open it a ton of ideas just come through my mind.
does it work on chromebook
Lul Pluto Vert you ca view it throughout the browser. So yes it does. The issue is that you will need storage to save you samples.
@@lieutenantpepper2734 will I be able to make beats using the chromebook?
Lul Pluto Vert as long you can have a DAW running on the Chromebook you can make beats.
When I started getting sick of Logic drum sounds I just started recording my own sounds with my mic. Just by hitting random objects around my house, and modifying the recorded audio with my assortment of plugins (I'm obsessed with Soundtoys 5 lol), I've managed to come up with some pretty sweet drum sounds. Maybe I should start using Splice though just to have more options.
The combination of splice and that is probably the finest! Because splice is very fast for navigating through juice and crisp... +youtube for podcast stuff +serum and you are sailing on a huge ocean of possibilities
I do that same thing but i use my phone and make noises or start smacking metallic items around
@@Yo-nq9ul same here lol shows how much technology has advanced we can make sounds from our phones.
@@MoneyMoonPlue exactly!!!!!!💯
I am also at this point
I love Splice, it's super useful for samples! great video as usual patrick!
My guy! much love brother!
I agree dude. Thanx for getting me onto splice. Love the music I can create with this platform.
Dude, I didn't know they have synth presets!!! This is amazing!
You have literally read my mind. A lot of artists suggest to stick to limitivity to unleash creativity... But it sometimes doesnt work no matter how good my music theory is and i am using the same old stuff. Will consider to get splice into my work pipeline!
I'm brand new to Splice and trying to figure out how to save and drag them. Can't wait! Thanks for the pointers.
I only use Splice for Drum samples, FX, Vocals and Cinematic effects. Knowing that almost every producer probably heard the same melodies on Splice as I have just doesn’t feel right.
Agree!
Stop producing with other producers in mind. Producers don’t buy records
CannaMink true as well
@@cannamink sir that is a very good point I'm now glad I've heard
Same here. Two producers can use the same drum sounds because after mixing, their drums will sound completely different. But every once in awhile I'll check out the melodic samples too because two producers won't flip a sample the same way.
Been using splice over year now myself. It help evolve my sound and skills. Helped build many tracks and beats. Would recommend
I am currently trying to determine if it is a good idea to take this subscription, thanks for the video
Damn boy, you are good. Subscribed!
I've been using splice for 3 months. I got to say its worth it. I find myself using alot of one shots or loops that I chop up. Their library is always growing too so it feels unlimited.

Great video man, thank you for uploading this! Really made me understand splice!
splice really shines when it comes to finding loops of niche instruments quickly, or to find something that matches a certain vibe quickly
great video... I was on the fence but Im definitely getting splice now!!!! Thank you for the review
I like splice. I think some of my best pieces were made with those sounds. I used to dig vinyl but could not really release much because it was so dependent on obvious samples.

you should be sponsered by splice this looks like an ad lol great production quality
Didnt even know it was so serious. Might have to look into this sooner than later...
Awesome review, super honest and down to earth!
Hey Patrick, I just came across your channel as I am looking into Splice. Just subscribed, great video, brilliantly produced, so yea, great job!
Can i still use these sample after i cancel the splice account ?
Love Splice! Just also signed up to this site called Mixxed. Similar to Splice. Not quite as slick but way cheaper!!! I think they are new to the game so worth keeping an eye on.
Great video! Very informative
Nice room you have there, man! Love it! Great video!
Splice is so amazing! I wish there was a 200 credits option or a custom amount.
Violated just wait another month, you shouldn’t really need more than 100 credits to make a song

great description of Splice. thanks for sharing how you use it.
For me Splice is really great. I use it for percussion one shots. Samples quality are really tight.
Thanks for sharing your experience with Splice.
Thanks for this bro.
I would reccomend dragging your one shots into ESX24 ... way more malleability with the sampler. Great vid, thanks.
Subbed expressly because of the Hawks mug
Lets go! The boys are off to a pretty decent start this year!
I have the mpc live ! It is splice integrated I think I'm going to get a splice subscription so I can use it within my akai mpc live thanks for the video it incouraged me to go aheaded and get sice!!

Composer Cloud is cool... IF you get the 24bit sample upgrade. Can't be using 16bit samples in 2020 when all the pros are using 24bit (or higher).
Thanks for the tip. I'll try this out for composing
Thanks for this! Appreciate it.

I see splice as a great tool that I want to know fully understand what rights do I have to the music I download as a member paying a monthly cost.

Whether that is right to do or not, can I do that if it isn’t having to pay for a music producer and or going on a site like a freelancer for someone to give the job to? I don’t want a lengthy process and I don’t mean to play a large amount for something I can find myself. What are my options?
