    All my DJ gigs are cancelled (aka my main income is gone) so this is my full time job now. Big thanks to Serato for sponsoring this video (aka they paid me to make this which is cool). If you want to help support me and what I'm doing here, please consider buying something from my website - www.slynk.net/shop/ and check out my music for sale on my Bandcamp - slynk.bandcamp.com
    Thanks. Love you guys

      I just was flipping around before my shift(essential worker)
      Thinking about getting my teenagers into something else besides video games.
      Wow you make that look so easy
      I owned scratch live in 2005 and played for a couple of years on my turntables and mixer.
      You got me ready to buy Ableton and dust off my record collection to have some fun.
      Enjoyed your video you made it look so easy. Thanks you made my Morning.
      Serato & Ableton should also thank you
      They just made some money today
      Once I finish my shift
      At 56 years old I hope I pick it up
      Looks like it will be tons of fun with my kids and granddaughter.
      Keep videos coming
      Definitely will hit up your website for something
      Stay safe
      Thx again

    Is this plugin also a good alternative for Sample or Simpler? Which device you use to play the sample maybe a Novation of other ?

    Is there a way to process a full track, changing EITHER the pitch, OR the tempo?
    I’d like to change the tempo of a track by >10%, and Complex/Complex Pro doesn’t cut it.
    Can Serato Sample process a track, or do you literally have to load that track into Sample, and re-sample in real-time to a new track in Live?

    • @Slynk

    • @bydoempire9746
      @bydoempire9746 4 роки тому +5

      If you're on Ableton place the full track in serato sampler, place a cue point at the beginning, set the sampler to whatever tempo/pitch you want to change it to. After this create a midi clip with one note on C1 and make the clip as long as the track or longer, then change serato sample play mode to play thru instead of gate and freeze the track, now simple drag the frozen track down to an empty audio track and you will have the full track with key/pitch change. Sounds like a lot but literally takes a few seconds and saves you from having to re-sample in real-time.

    Although I don't get it. Is it THAT better than using simpler inside Drum Rack? Is time stretch quality really like unbeleivebly better?

    • @Slynk
      @Slynk  4 роки тому

      It depends on your use case. If you're using drum samples in a drum rack then you probably don't need to be changing the key and tempo of the drum samples. You really just want something that plays the audio clip on command for a drum rack. I wouldn't use serato sample inside a drum rack.

    • @Letsynthesize
      @Letsynthesize 4 роки тому

      @@Slynk Of course, I get it, I didn't talk about one-shot samples either. I just made a 90's style hiphop sample pack where I used long loops in Simplers inside Drum Rack where I am able to use time stretch. Considering this do you find Serato time stretch quality better than Ableton's Complex Pro time Stretch quality (inside Simpler)?

    • @Slynk
      @Slynk  4 роки тому +1

      Ableton complex warping algorithm vs serato sample pitch n time? They sound very similar. But I think pitch n time does a slightly better job. Especially with extreme pitch and tempo changes.

      Actually the midi information is coming from Ableton and being sent to Serato Sample because you can think of it as a regular softsynth. So recording midi is exactly the same as recording midi for say.. serum.

      Yes. There are a few different warping algorithms in Ableton that can achieve this. But, like I explain in the video, the Pitch 'n Time algorithm is in a class of its own. I compared it with the Ableton Complex pro algorithm and I believe P'nT does a slightly better job.

  • @phiprion
    @phiprion 4 роки тому

    There are great things I can do in Ableton's Simpler when it captures transients and "chops" samples automatically in a similar way like Serato or, like in Ableton Sampler, when it allows me to make "synthish" sort of thing out of a sound sample by riding along back and forth and/or starting from different places... And since I've been thinking on migrating to Reaper, this Serato sampler might be a good replacement for Simpler, but not for Sampler. Does anyone know what could be a decent replacement for Ableton's sampling tools? (: thanx!

    • @weenss
      @weenss 4 роки тому +1

      I have been on reaper for years, and have been on that same quest for years too - finding elegant equivalents for simpler and sampler. Unfortunately you won't find something that has the same kind of integration as simpler/sampler have with Live. You also will find shockingly few solutions that have the simplicity in UI and usability as simpler/sampler (great business idea for anyone in the plugin game!). There are some simpler-like plugins, but most have very limited functionality and still lack that 'magic' that simpler possesses. The best I have come up with is using Battery - it lacks the minimal UI that simpler/sampler have, but has the power and flexibility that most people would desire from such a plugin.
