Now that's what I call using ingenuity to come up with a workflow that's not in the manual. Thank you so much. I'm off with this one. Post this video in the groups
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 chopping on the 500 is so fun, so many ways to go about it.. the calculator method with division is crazy mind blowing fun as well... much love homie❤️❤️❤️
@@DizzyMakavelli it goes something like, make your sample a perfect loop, crop it, then look at the end number, take that number and divide that by your slices, write them down on some paper then you can manually enter in the numbers of the chops with the numerical key. It’s kinda geeky but it does work, I’m not sure if that’s faster or chopping by ear, but yea, get out a calculator and divide the end point number by different slice numbers.
record or sample the full sample to a pad, resample parts of that sample to and assign those recordings to pads, use trim start to adjust start points for accurate chops
By chopping the sample using the Trim mode like you saw in the end but it takes a lot of time because you’re using numbers an not waveforms and other things.
@@djpopcorn He used the resample method. (He just tightened the chops by trimming at the end) The usual method is to chop the same sample adjusting the Start and End points using only the method he used in the end.
@@djpopcorn In the resample method you run the sample and push the record button on the part you want to chop. Doing this you don't have to do all the process of taking the entire sample and finding the chop you want using the numbers to trim the sound. Imagine a option where you can put markers on your sample vs manually adjusting the regions of each pad. Now imagine adjusting these regions using numbers. The mark option is easier.
In TRIM Mode? Shift + Cursor in Left or Right change what digit You change. Normally You change single digit but if You press SHIFT + Left Cursor You gonna change hundreds. Notice what digit is underlined on the screen.
I'll never get rid of my mpc 500 but the workflow is TERRIBLE! I usually just chop everything up in Maschine because its THOUSANDS of times faster and then drop the samples into mpc 187 to put them in the 500. The saturation on this thing is great though.
You have right in some points but from another hand I really like workflow of MPC500. It can be done easier but it’s not so bad. How You work on MPC 500 is similar to MPC 60 :)
Why not just chop the sample on the way in? This seems over complicated. All old school hip hop was made by chopping on the way in because the memory was so small. That’s literally why chopping was invented. This technique seems like a step backwards, and much more time consuming. What am I missing?

been doing this method for years and it's the first time someone posted about it. perk's of having a 500
I like the way this method works.
Nice! I had been chopping using the mpcmaid program and transferring but this will be even faster, thanks for the video!
This is some real wizardry! Great video man genius work flow!

Can you explain this method?

@@Skulptursound Man. You know you're in the lab when you need a calculator. 😂
Reminds me of making pause-button tapes.
Zajebisty patent ! Przetestuje 😎
thank you for this
love it. a lot.
Is this the same method as chopping on the kick snare and hi hat
Dope nice chops
damn thats fuckin dope man thanks!
You are killing it with this new content! 🤙🏼🔥🔥
Thanks
Great technic
could you write a list of things to do ? it's not obvious to me to understand the trim method for each chop...
record or sample the full sample to a pad, resample parts of that sample to and assign those recordings to pads, use trim start to adjust start points for accurate chops
Top!
What's the other or normal usual way people would chop with the mpc500?
By chopping the sample using the Trim mode like you saw in the end but it takes a lot of time because you’re using numbers an not waveforms and other things.
@@DizzyMakavelli But isn't what you just described, what it is he did? I'm confused.

You push SHIFT button. What it gives?
