Tuning vs time stretching in the studio
I gotta say that I've learned so much more about my mpcxl in the last week since discovering your vids than I have learned on my own since getting it roughly 2 years ago. I've used the 2000 since 99 and pretty much mastered it so moving over to the XL was easy. But I had no earthly idea it had all these extra features like time stretching, sample converting and sample slicing. You just opened up a brand new world for me! I TRUELY appreciate it!
and i appreciate you watching!
I think it sounds awesome with the drop. Beauty of the MPC. Seriously my best beats have been cut the loop up right, set the tempo, rip a beat on the fly. love it
Just finished building my MPC 2500 from spare parts. Your videos are a Master Class Bro. Loving these MPC vids. In my Yoda voice, "Much to learn, I still have" Thanks for sharing You OL Filt! LOL!
Awesome! Thank you!
Along time ago I made a comment about Time stretch being the same as just adjusting tune in params . Well after a bunch of experimenting with it , I found that you can give the sample alot more character by messing with the numbers . I've been getting a weird little wiggle effect along with the bpm match and time stretch. I'm liking it
salute, its all about experimenting
wow that bass line when you tuned the MJ sample down is *very* sick!! I gotta use that
salute
wow im such a noob man, you have no idea how much this helped !!!! mad respect my brothaaaaa!!!
Thanks dre, glad this vid could help
The fact that the time stretching algorithm here sounds better than Ableton's is mind-boggling
salute
Cool video bro. The time stretched sample fits.
Awsome tutorial j. As always
Great video! I'm considering upgrading my dream machine from the sp404 to an mpc2000, but the one thing about the sp404 that was so appealing is that you can bounce a pattern into a sample. Can the mpc2000 record patterns to a new sample? I don't think I've seen anyone do this in all the demonstration videos. A workaround would be to record the audio into a DAW and sample it right back, but it'd be nice to stay inside the machine.
Extra bit, the reason I bring this up on this video is because a complicated workaround would be to chop the MJ sample down to it's individual notes and fire the samples off one at a time to get it on the beat. I guess you would lose all the life out of the sample though, haha.
Thanks for this massive library of tutorials Jfilt, it has been a long time since I felt really motivated to make beats.
No the mpc2k cannot record patterns into a new sample but thanks for the kind words
Using both at the same time is always a good option, bro! MPC for fx and stuff like that, cuz normally its easier to chop stuff and build up a full beat in the MPC. I also love to make full beats on the SP tho.
thanks Pat Pat, that definitely sounds like the optimal setup!
Thanks, Bro. Nice Video and very helpful.
+Aleko o Megalos My pleasure!
Nice stuff!
Great video keep up the good work.......
Beat crazy
much thanks
@@Verysickbeats yessir, got some crazy beats using time stretch on Koala
Thanks, I enjoyed it!
good tips man
thank u

@@Verysickbeats if ya ever get a chance or a few couple spare mins check out my shit! any feed back, postive or negative would be much appreciated! especially from you
Oh shit i like that skull snaps break!

I actually found that record in a goodwill in some little border town for 5bucks! I think its worth about 900 bucks. Hahah they had no idea what they had
And whats the adjust number at the bottom right corner actually doing ?
Yo Thanks,,, I been trying to figure this out for years...SMH fr fr Thanks Dogg!
my pleasure
Great advice as always
much thanks
Verysickbeats thank you dude! I love your channel
Thx man. Very helpful.
This is good
much thanks
Good stuff my brutha, I don't use a mpc2000xl but I like this vid, I already know multiple time stretching methods, and I use the MPC sequencer to figure out my original tempo for my samples, I'm just wondering how do you figure out your original sample tempo, I might have missed that part in the vid, but in just wondering if you use the method that I use when time stretching which is using the sequencer to figure out the tempo? I love time stretching and I do it on every beat I produce, thanks
Oh! I found one.. (a vid about time stretching) thanks anyway geezer
I feel you i always pitch my samples down.
Hey thanks bro this was nice
My pleasure!
sick
Nice one !!!
thanks for the tips!
my pleasure
Can you do a video on you transfer your finished songs to the computer with a high quality?
I record my songs thru cubase, but the song's volume always seem to come out very low no matter how much i turn it up (that is without affecting the peak levels on my interface).
If not, its cool, i love your videos regardless, keeeep hiphoppppin form the hearrttt mannnggggg
You need a preamp or a mixer that will give your signal some power
I usually take the sample and run it through 16 levels using the proper scales to get the pitch. Is this way better? Thanks for the vids!
Can you make a tutorial about how to sample on the MPC 500? It would be nice!
thanks for the request but i NEVER sample on the 500 LOL, there are some vids on YT but plz let me know if none of those work for you and i'll see what i can do
Nice
Hi, i am using the maschine trying to take your knowledge and transfer as much as i can, is it possible, lets say i sampled an oregon, got one note out of it can i change the key it is in for every pad, 16 velocity but the maschine version, without changing the speed?
Not to my knowledge, but you could try using your DAW and copy that one note several times and then transpose each note to different keys with pitch shift
thats a great idea thanks man, it almost makes me want to get an mpc 2500 haha
My pleasure....Lol, i understand
Sweeeeet I sparked the 1000 up just so I could test this n put it in the memory bank )mind(
Dope!
Whats up brotha.. Thank you for your vids.. Was wondering your opinion on Quantizing the actual sample.. Personally sometimes I do quantize my samples on 1/16 then you get that choppiness and end up needing to time stretch etc but was just wondering if when YOU laid your samples if you quantized then or just played them straight up.. Also Velocity?
Im not really into quantizing in general especially samples with drums in it already because i like making my own rhythms and it could clash. However every beat is different and it really depends on how u feel at the end of the day..Velocity if used a certain way just allows more of a human feel.
dope dude ;)
Would you have personally used the timestretching function of the mpc2000xl to stretch such a sample to that bpm? It sounds as "mechanical" as you said, and oftentimes filtering just isn't enough to make it alright. IOW, do you actually use the function for real, EVER ?
After time stretching. How do you change the pitch/key without changing the time/tempo?
you can't on here.
Drum break from NaS - I Can, right? ;)
+JC Biffro originally from impeach the President although Nas used it along with countless others
Isn't that function just changing the speed to fit the tempo u select? I've played with the time stretch and concluded it's just adjusting the pitch to fit and u can just as easily adjust tune in parameters and have ur filter right there.
yes and i usually don't time stretch anyway
Hah! Just after I was making fun of time stretch I did it on a track I'm working on and just adjusting pitch wasn't doing it. The time stretch actually did add advertised and adjusted something in the sample to get on beat . And since I sampled it in way above 45rpm it doesn't sound like the sample was slowed down
I guess that just goes to sho bro.. 15years owning the 2000xl and finally it did something rìght
Do you put the samples on different tracks of the sequence?
yes for the most part depending on the sounds
@@Verysickbeats would you put those samples that you tempo matched on different tracks?
I HAVE A QUESTION, WHEN ONE HEARS A SAMPLE THEY LIKE THE LOOP IT ETC.
HOW DOES ONE DETERMINE WHAT BPM THAT SAMPLE SHOULD BE OR SOUNDS BEST? I
KNOW IT DEPENDS ON THE TYPE OF TRACK AND THE PERSON CREATING THE BEAT
AROUND THAT LOOP OR CHOPPED LOOPS. NEXT QUESTION ONCE LETS SAY YOU HAVE
A SAMPLE AND ITS BPM IS 75, ONE WANTS TO MAKE IT A LIL FASTER AND HAVE
IT FIT A 85-90 BPM. SO DOES ONE PITCHES THE LOOP BEFORE THE CHOP I
ASSUME TO THE DESIRED BPM, TEN CHOPS THE LOOP AND THEN PLAYS THE LOOPS
USING PADS MPC, MASCHINE ETC TRYING TO STAY ON BEAT. SO WHAT IS THE
BEST TECHNIQUE IF ONE IS USING LETS SAY AN MPC 200XL SHOULD I PITCH,
TIME STRETCH ETC OR BOTH? I NOTICED WITH THE MPC IF I TIME STRETCH IT
PUTS IT AT THE DESIRED BPM BUT WHEN I PITCH IT IT BRINGS IT HIRE THEN
THE ACTUAL BPM I WANTED OR LOWER THEN THE BPM I WANTED. SO WHAT IS THE
BEST TECHNIQUE? I ALSO HAVE SERATO'S PITCH N TIME PRO WHICH WITH THAT
PLUGIN I CAN TIME STRETCH THEN PITCH AND WHEN I DO THAT IT DOESNT EFFECT
THE BPM AS THE MPC DO. IS THERE A WAY TO DO THE SAME THAT SERATO PITCH N
TIME PRO DOES WITH THE MPC 2000XL?
1. Its determined by trial and error, whatever sounds the best to you
2. I'd say stick with the Serato if you wanna time stretch without effecting pitch
3. Im not a fan of time stretching in MPC unless its just a little bit
how do i pitch the sample in the mpc ren without changing the tempo because whenever i pitch the sample it's change the tempo
lousina paul Not sure but you might wanna check out Hellfire Beats and tell him i sent you...Peace
Whats the difference between that stylus and the original one?
That turntable is the Numark TTUSB right? What kinda stylus is that...?
yo Lawrin!
How do you get here on the 500? I’ve been resampling to copy.
Found it under trim if anybody was wondering
salute
Ayyyeee!!!!
AYYEEE!! LOL
Verysickbeats you killed it bro! I just got my 2000xl, gotta watch all your videos so a bruh can learn something
do you time stretch chopped samples
+taalib blune very rarely
is this also called beat matching?
some call it that
How du i know the BPM of the original sample?
Troels Grage The answer is from 1:57 - 2:18 The source tempo is the original BPM
I'm working with a MPC Studio, and it tells me that the source tempo is at 120.0 with every sample that i use. What do i do wrong?
Awesome resource for you can be found at mpc-forums dot com
try the preset leave mj alone!
Ahh thank u i knew it but i was jus bein lazy
I know watcha mean, thanks 4 watching!
Збс))
reading the manual would have done the same thing.
Track ID 0:01-0:12???
Vsevolod Lyakh Just an intro track, never completed into full beat
***** need to do, every day I would listen to this beat!!!
So would I. It's actually very sick.
gimme some lean if I gotta listen to this
leave mj alone!!!
I usually take the sample and run it through 16 levels using the proper scales to get the pitch. Is this way better? Thanks for the vids!
The ParanormL Either way is fine, its up to you and how you feel
Thats smart
Does it help with playing chops?
yes it depends on the chops and how you use them, but i normally never do this
@@Verysickbeats do it far as chops? Plus why so studio monitors pop when i press a pad that has no music playing?
do you have to put every sound in the same key
+taalib blune not necessarily
