When sidechaining using a break it is smart to put a short click sample as ur “side chain trigger” and put the midi of the click sample on the snare and kick so that ur not sidechaining the noise or the hi hats from the breaks. This also gives u way more control over the release Time of the compressor!
I believe what he’s saying is to have a midi drum channel and mirrors the drum track, and use that channel for the side chaining, not actual drum track which isn’t as clean - multiple Instruments and effects etc.

Honestly complex is the best though haha. You cant really do anything with them, it just tells ableton how to treat the sample when it warps it. Complex for any samples like this, beats for straight drum loops, tones for straight instruments like only keys or vocals, and thats about it. If you don't set the warp mode right, the warped sample will sound shitty.
@@cuhloudy I use it on a lot of basses and sometimes synths, you have to mess with the transposition, stretch the warp markers, and mess with the grain/flux to get a sick result.
Instead of going through the sample and locking each transient to the beat you might have a better initial result from trying to get the first transient that appears after 16 bars on-beat, then working from there. Depending on how on beat the performers in the sample were it could be the only transient adjustment you need to do at all. You can also basically do this when you're detuning the sample instead but with less precision obviously
Fairly new at producing beats and damn dude, the way you explain things is so easy to understand. I have a difficult time with comprehension and you made this easy! Thanks!
Thank you!!! Someone finally shows the Kenny Beats style sample technique in session view!!!! Bout fuckin time!!! Im tired of being limited to simpler.Salute my dude!
Mai, my guy, great tutorial. One thing, you can def keep your drums on beats mode, and change the sustain to this arrow -> so it only plays till the end of the transient. makes drums crisp as hell :)
Would love to see a video on groove pools and making unique rhythms in ableton! also maybe a video on adding organic sounding basslines to beats like in this one?
@@simon5851 Hi , thanks for the reply. OK so if I understand correctly, it's a channel where someone uploads only soul track but it's not an automatic generator done by youtube or so?
little tip for the loud metronome if you don't already know. Down at the bottom right on your master. You got the orange volume bar and then the blue one next to it. if you lower the blue bar down it lowers your metronome no its more bearable. Dope flip tho!
I wish there was a way to reach out to you! You legit are the producer I hope to become. I started when my dad got cancer and he passed last September. I been in FL not really accomplishing much. I wish I could be mentored by someone like you. Just so talented and your taste in music is superb!

@@vekselthe4983 in ableton you can click "TAP" button to the left of the metronome to set the tempo, so he could've clicked that TAP button to the beat of the song to find the tempo instead of stretching it to the grid, however: I probably didn't realize, making this comment, that he already had his metronome set to the tempo he wanted (90 bpm, very popular tempo for boom-bap and old hip-hop using samples like this) Warping the sample using that detune setting at 2:43 to the speed closest to the grid/his tempo (90 bpm) is actually a pretty good idea to get the sample to correctly align with the correct set tempo, and then you can further edit it from there to make it perfectly fit the beat of your song.
@@loco2loudhoodrichbctrill265 bruhhh for the life of me i had this sample's melody in my head for about 3 months and seeing your comment reminded me of the song where i know it from. it's isaiah rashad - sounds from sunday morning!
I'm a fossil. I had all of these original records in the late 70;s early 80's. I did pause tapes before samplers came out. No lies. I did razor blade edits on 1/2" reel to reels. I even did razor edits on cassette tapes!!!!! I took awhil to 'save up' for my first sampler. Ensoniq EPS keyboard 88'. couldn't afford the EMU sp 1200, but my buddy had one. Then I saved for the MPC 60, 89. brand new. $1,840.00 upgraded to 26 seconds mono 12 bit. used that with multiple keyboard but coulpled it with the Ensoniq EPS 16+. That was a nice combo. I traded the MPC to my friend, he still has it. Had way more studio set up all through the 2K's I'm still rocking today.........

we really gonna act like this sample hasn’t been used in like 80 songs already lol
Yearkiller can’t lie the beat was pre fire tho🥵🥵
That's what I hate about sampling, you think you've found something undiscovered and then people start calling you a clone for using a song
all i hear is Might Be by Anderson Paak
i sample it in 2019
look at that boii ua-cam.com/video/f9JEiXZY2P8/v-deo.html
speak up
when u releasing more music mann

Great vid Mai, keep em coming!
I have music best contents check me out
Yes I use traklib too
HAHAHA BEST COMMENT AROUND HERE!!!
Yo I'm deadass thinking about switching to ableton after watching this, that trick of making the sample on beat did it for me
Yeah that’s what’s great about ableton, freely manipulating audio( and the different warp modes)
You can do it on fl too. In newtone.
Yeah fl is ass for sampling I think new time has a similar function tho if you don't want to buy ableton
Same goes for me... sampling in FL is a pain in the ass...
Zeeshan Khan I got an ableton live lite license with my keyboard so i’ll definitely put that to use now
