Thanx, man! Awesome!

[kimba316]

very cool thaanks man!

[arthur187]

Is there a way to get this beat? I would buy it on iTunes or whatever:)

[laxer3232]

when i try and follow this it connects all the notes instead of being able to edit individual notes after i do the start thing with the envelope. know why this would be the case?

[OfficialRebeat]

are those high pop sounds in the drum beat toms? I've been trying to find that sound in vengeance forever

[TheNonWho]

@OfficialRebeat he said it is random midi notes going trough some percs. thats why they are sometimes high and sometimes low

[lowrider692]

thx

[Godymento1]

Super Song +1)

Sorry to sound stupid, but what is swing?

[aidanday]

@happygilmoreuk Swing typically lags the 2nd 1/8 note of each beat or (much more commonly in dance music) the 2nd and 4th 16th notes from the 'precise' spot that they should be. So like, say you were counting "1 e & a 2 e & a" for 16th notes: the 'e' and the 'a' would each be a little 'late' to make it more human sounding. 'Groove' typically adds some velocity touches are more detail to this basic concept of 'swing'. Not a dumb question at all.

[TheNonWho]

@aidanday thanks for explaining!

[08silver]

thanks 2 this video i finally improved to set swing level.. i just used tripled grid before but in this way it's not possible to set swing level.. thank u very much

[peterduava]

That was a great help, thanks.

[MegaShitler]

is there any posibility to get this sample or loop? please , the background beat just cracked me

[djdevelope1]

i learn more watching tutorials than i do reading the manual.

[GeromeMouawad]

you have a nice voice and your tutorial is awsome ! but the sound and video are OUT OF SYNC i think

[rinkedeman]

cool stuff, but i'm way more interested in how you created the percussion sounds. cheers

[TheCutClub]

Finally good to see some decent tutorials. Well, there are some great ones out there but the music is usually not very good. Thanks very much Pointblank :D

[thossii]

One quick question, how do you rename each clip? I've never been able to figure that one out..

[pointblankonline]

CTRL / CMD + R is the quickest way.

[thossii]

Thanks.

[axle1989]

[DJLeeStreet]

good video fella i like ur style

[zab666]

thanks for that....a bit like in the old school sampling machines

[fermixx]

"to achieve a glitchy, gated vocal effect using Microtonic"

he's not using microtonic for that vocal. he's using simpler.

Btw something like that can also be made with sAmpler, using envelopes to control start and end point of the sample, making really weird things (specially if you add a lfo too).

And if you do this plus changing the pitch of the vocal (both via transpose controls or changing the note) makes really weird things too.

thx for the tuto

[yourusernamehere2]

Microtonic is the artist that donated the vocal..

[fermixx]

weird, thought he was talking about the microtonic vst (which by the way its a huge plug in!)

[fernwood]

Nice
