Great vid! Never tried resampling the sidechain effect, will definitely try that. When I sidechain in koala and I work with smaller chops I’ll sometimes put on a little bit of gate effect too, it makes this choppy start to the sample and takes some of the bass away (and also does that to the kick so you might need a kick with some high end) the choppyness is the key though 😀
Yeah, good call. I've used this technique via increasing the attack of the chopped sample so that it scoops off the front until the kick has finished. Less choppy but essentially your versions gives the same result. I like Michael's version because it offers a different end result that sounds crustier to my ears. (This is a good thing)
His Sidechain explanation in further laymans = [compressor]: "Man I got mind control over Deebo. He be like stfu...I be quiet. But when he leave, I be talking again.."
This guy is a mad scientist 💪🏿he has more work arounds then anyone I’ve seen💪🏿WE MUST PROTECT HIM AT ALL COST. He literally is reverse engineering everything that we do . I wish I could hit the like button twice💪🏿 I appreciate your work most definitely 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
@@playpm I had to watch the video again (which I usually do for videos I want to learn something). I just got the concept. Damn, that's insane. Thank you. Didn't grow up with samplers so this is a really cool tip.
I love the metaphor, man! Keep up the dope videos! Would love to see a video comparing your song structuring process (verses, choruses, bridges, etc) from SP404, to Koala.
SINCERELY GREAT VERY COOL THE APP .. THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!! IT WAS A BLESSING! Glad you like it, I'm not sponsered btw, hope there won't be any misunderstanding.
Me: I just bought a SP-404 and posted a video. Yay! . . . PlayPM: post the video "How to SideChain/Duck in the SP404 way on Koala Sampler" Great video anyway :) Thanks a million for the great advice.
The power bank only output 5v, you need to buy another line which can convert 5v into 9v, but make sure you got the right polarity and jack size. You may search it on google or alipress
There’s no way to get more of a grid on when recording in sequence mode is there like a grid per instead of just per bar?? I do use a Bluetooth speaker when I’m in work and the delay does really mess with the timing. Oh and it’s cause it’s an iPhone. With no jack that I do Bluetooth also, so a grid would be nice. The quantise I don’t think works for me
Is there a reason for sampling your playing to another pad first? Would it work the same if you recorded to a pattern and did the rest of the steps based on that?
It works for pattern play and live play too, but if you resample kick with chops then compress it, you can get more control of the sidechain amount and fine tune it by ear
Also it depends on how you want to use sidechain, if you only want melodic chops duck from kick drum, then this is the only way to achieve that, otherwise every thing would duck each other, cuz it’s a compressor, it compresses the whole level
Yeah sure you can and a lot of people use your method, either with the build-in on or ones from other company in AUM, with resample method the Sidechain effect is more controllable in my opinion.

Wow! Thanks for your advice, with a little gate on it sounds sooooooo much better! The amount is so much harder! Thanks~
P l a y P M glad I could help 😃
Already pinned to the top, I have to cover this update in my future video! Thanks again for sharing~

Pete Sasqwax wow! Good to see you here, really love your sharing ~ keep it up~
“He’s giving you guys a side-chain” that’s a great analogy haha really loving your videos dude
Appreciate it ;)
the best explanation of sidechian ever heard
哈哈, you got the point~
His Sidechain explanation in further laymans = [compressor]: "Man I got mind control over Deebo. He be like stfu...I be quiet. But when he leave, I be talking again.."
I was ready to hate on this comment like bro he already explain it perfectly. I didn't see this coming tho lmaaao I was wrong THIS is perfect 😂😂

Appreciated man, just reminding you that there's also a dislike button to smash ;)
Love that analogy
Easily one of the best channels on the yourube platform!. (WE) appreciate you!.💯🎯🔥
This is the channel that keeps on giving! I don't know how I missed this but thanks, you've solved a problem for me. Again!
Great job on this video. Didn't expect the story but it explained the concept well.
Lol, just a little anolagy, I’m really inspired by your drag n drop way to load sample on Koala, and I might make a video sharing it too, big thanks~
@@playpm I had to watch the video again (which I usually do for videos I want to learn something). I just got the concept. Damn, that's insane. Thank you. Didn't grow up with samplers so this is a really cool tip.
Also, spoiler alert. I'm sending your video to the developer.
# SEONN thanks man, I also reminded elf audio to check this too~
i’ve really been loving you channel man. you seem like a cool dude.
Sharing and helping people are way cooler ;)
sos un capo, te amo chabon. From Argentina. phumbps uuuupppppppps
Great explaining for the newbies (me), thank you.
this is game-changing!
Sidechain bully! Lol I love it! Awesome videos man
Thanks for liking, stay safe and creative!
I'm in thanks for the info man 👏😁☮
Thanks for this trick ! Clever. Hope to see you soon back on youtube!
Definitely gonna be back, stay tuned!
You drive us nuts, thank you so much.
So awesome! Thank you! Gear don't matter much as skills
Thanks Michael!
My pleasure~
You're a genuis , Michael
Thanks pal, you're my hero, subbed!
I love the metaphor, man! Keep up the dope videos!
Would love to see a video comparing your song structuring process (verses, choruses, bridges, etc) from SP404, to Koala.
Thanks man, they share almost the same workflow, only koala has some shortcuts to chain your sequences ( drag sequence to another then add to end)
Maaan, Koala sampler is game changer, more tutorials please!
😍
Hey, that was a cool tutorial. Thanks and God bless you and your family abundantly always. :)
Great tip and explanation. Thanks!
Very dope advice!
Thanks yo definitely helped me out!
Go Michael GO man! Salute ! 👋✌🏼
SINCERAMENTE GRANDIOSA MUY COOL LA APP.. MUCHAS GRACIAS!!! FUE DE BENDICION!
SINCERELY GREAT VERY COOL THE APP .. THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!! IT WAS A BLESSING!
Glad you like it, I'm not sponsered btw, hope there won't be any misunderstanding.
Geeeeeniusssss!
Excellent!
That beat is fire
These videos are awesome. Thanks so much for sharing!
My pleasure, cheers~
So so so good
Excellent
Awesome no sidechain made me avoid Koala, nice to see it implemented in a creative way
really helpful , thanks
Glad to hear that! 帮到你很开心~
Sounds like he keeps saying "booty" which makes this so funny 😂
🙏🏽
Hahaha the buly analogy😅 love your stuff
Nice video, thanks. Any plans to get mk2?
I'll try my best to calm my GAS down and share my way of replacing it:)
@@playpm you are the strong one, I've already gave up. but it's gonna be my first 404, let's see :)
1:10 LOL
please make more videos!!!

音乐不错哦
谢谢~
Can I get an sp404. Somewhere cheap ?
Thank you for sharing! Does the power bank you use in the video put out higher then 5V? If so what is the make and model?
The power bank only output 5v, you need to buy another line which can convert 5v into 9v, but make sure you got the right polarity and jack size. You may search it on google or alipress
Hey man I have a question for you: with that app can we do a set like we do on a SP? Like “press 1 , hold , the beat/song goes on and apply fx to?
Yes you can, it doesn’t has a proper pad hold function for now, but there’s a way to get around. Koala does has master fx.
P l a y P M I am sayin that cause I have a SP-404a and that with an iPad maybe could be a better solution...
Ruffus Duarte gotcha~ I’m pairing my Koala with SP too, pretty sweet combo~
P l a y P M how? Could you do a video explain it?
I’ll cover pad hold function for koala in next video, until then you can still check other youtuber’s video, they might already covered it ;)
How do you sidechain high hats and snares?
If you want to duck them, you can record those sounds onto the melodic track, let it get ducked by kick all together.
@@playpm thanks so much!

Never use Bluetooth speaker for live input notes, try some cheap adaptor which has usb+lighting+3.5mm jack.

Lol you must watched Friday.
Whats the reason for resampling ? I'm assuming this sampler has a sequencer , can you just apply ducking compression to the entire track ?
Yeah sure you can and a lot of people use your method, either with the build-in on or ones from other company in AUM, with resample method the Sidechain effect is more controllable in my opinion.
I was using the MPC software for like a month but I stopped because I hated the sidechain
Oh why? It's better than koala sidechain work around imo.
How can I eq
or boost the lows in a "koala way"?
Resample with More Bass FX on, or low pass filt your sample then boost it up, trigger it and original one at the same time, then resample.
