    Hi ! I've been producing for a few years now (i'm not an official artist so feel free to roast me if you don't agree with me hehe) i'm sample based, don't know shit about music theory.. So ! I used to warp my sample to match transients, manually, not like he did (don't do that, except for the harder sample you may find that doesn't really have a constant bpm) that distorts the sound (may sound good sometimes though). Another way to get it done, imagine you got a few samples that are already matching your bpm, but now you want the rest of your sample to keep the bpm (assuming your sample isn't constantly on your bpm) just warp the few already good samples, then by just looking at your desired sample on your rack, you can see whenever it's on beat by looking at the grid and manipulating the bpm knob on the top left of your ableton, now assuming you've got your master bpm matching the original sample bpm, just warp it, turn your "master" bpm back to where you wanted and boom, your sample matches your bpm. It's a "trick" i've discovered myself by learning ableton all by myself, it seems to be harder than Kenny's technique, but it is absolutely not. But i'm gonna use his technique from now on, since it seems to be the easiest way to do it 😅 Music is amazing, sampling is an art i'm seeking and which i will master, have a good day everyone !

    8:00 when you set the tempo to 180, is warp scrunching the beat down from 180 to 145? Assuming that the metronome is clicking at 145? and this works better because 180 to 145 is a smaller difference from 80 to 145? and warp keeps the timing that is built into the sample but makes it "fit" with the tempo that is set in the global setting (145 aka your project tempo)?
