Thanks for the tutorial man.. I just need to ask..whats the use of the keyboard? If everything can be done in the program itself, then wouldn't a keyboard just mean spending extra money?
I'm surely going to use sony acid for my music work. And if a keyboard is actually helpful, I'm surely going to get one. If you could reply to this, I'll really appreciate it. And thanks..
@TheNineOone Because in the time it takes to program a single chord using just the program, I could play an entire 8 bar piano part by using the keyboard.
Great tutorial! I just recently purchased Sony Acid Music Studio 8 and this is the very first music software I've ever purchased and you did a fantastic job of explaining the controls to me; much better than the 'how to' context tutorial did. Heh.
It's a shame for me to say that I have no other source of external music production, (Like your keyboard, record player, and such), but I'll try my best!
wait so can u record on acid pro 6 u know vocals..cuz i have a mic and stuff but i have this maudio device that uses a usb and connects to my pc and i can connect mics on that and guitars and what not..but idk how to sett it up in acid pro so i can record vocals????
im not a hip hop producer, i do drum n bass, but good tips nonetheless. i think it applies to any style of music, more or less. ive been using acid pro for the better part of 11 years now and its really come a long way. and i like how you pointed out that it is professional quality software. i hear alot of people try to say that it isnt, but having used just about every other kind of producing software out, i think acid is the probably the easiest to use, even if you have no producing experience
prolly the longest way of sampling in acid. Record in an audio editor (cool edit) chop in there. Wack that back in acid, loop, chop, pitch whatever but ffs stay away from beatmapper. Samples not bad on this vid but ya drums are lacking.
@DEVIZEQLD my drums are lacking... I guess you're entitled to your opinion, but do be aware that this is an instructional video I made for high school students 4 years ago as supplemental resource for their brief Sony ACID software course.
Also, your way is perfectly fine-- it's how I sample. However, expecting a person who has never made a beat to be able to place a sample in time without the aid of something like the beatmapper is unreasonable.
I have a small segment of recorded vocal (1.3 second). How do I create a loop out of it with its original tempo being preserved? Clip properties interface automatically adjusts to project tempo when the loop type is selected. I don't want that because it distorts the vocal segment.
First of all, I appreciate all of your help and quick responses when it comes to using Acid. Now I am ready to add my pellas (mash ups). What is the best way to sync pellas in Acid? I have a turntable and mixer that I could use (Line in of the computer) or should I use the beatmapper and chop the verses to match up. Do you have a preference? Thanks again!! Peace!!
hey, i have my keyboard plugged in into my laptop. i can record and everything...i just don't know how to hear what i'm playing while i'm recording. what do i need to do? or what do i need? please help :/
I use acid at my house, but at school they make us use logic. It seems like Logic is just a pretty version of acid. idk. Maybe I just haven't learned enough in class yet. I like Acid.
hey! thanks alot man. youve helped me so much though my beat making process. Definity the best tutorials on youtube. check out my songs on my page if u like!!!
Peace Pain1, you seem to be a real humble dude, thats peace, even wit the ignorant stuff people say, good look on the vids, learned some tips about pitching the snares for the ill rolls, yo Much success peace
hey man, dumb question, but i was recording in sony acid 7 and i clicked webcam because i wanted to record me through it while recording my music. now when i record vocals in the program, it picks up the webcam mic instead of my mic, can you help me out?
@antonymm18 It's not a dumb question at all. The MPC does transmit MIDI data, so yes, it works with ACID. How it works is a different story though. Your best bet is to look into VST samplers so you can more or less do the same thing you do with the MPC (punching out drums and samples) but with sounds stored on your computer and with ACID's easy interface/efx capabilities.
@jacksonwonderful You Sequenced yes. But You sequenced Loops. Not Seperate Drums, is what I was getting at. nothing Detrimental man.. What you are doing here is comendable. The Acid Software could do with a Drum Sequencing Tool Like in FL, Sonar, Reaper, Pro-Tools, etc.
Hello ^.^ I just bought this program and I was wondering on how to get started. I really want to try to become a singer and I was curious if you think this program could help me get my path started. Any suggestions/tips/guides?
Quality shit once again my guy. I been using Acid for some years and making hot ass tracks but its cooler than a polar bear's nutsack on New Years to be able to learn some new tricks with it.
@jacksonwonderful I prefer to use my midi drumpad for drums. How do I edit them to the right measure after? I think I use "Midi inlide editing", but I dont really know how.
i 'm a blendist dj my first 'digital" mixtape was with acid pro i will be put some up during the course of this week it will be uderpoundsounds2009 in search bar i did all of the mixing with 7.0 acid what you did here i have never been able to get into scared i was goona ose work i did some of it took 3 days othere sorter/ longer but hey it the way it comes out can you get keygen codes for this 7,0 i need onemine had a virus attached
Man, Old School Way of making music! Digital technology has changed! Thats why everybodies on FL Studio now! The program is AMAZING! you can sample just as good if not better, then most, I wont say you though Pain! You The Man! Keep Em Trippin On Acid Timmothy LOL!
you probably don't have to midis saved onto your drive, and you probably don't want them saved onto your drive because it takes up space. make sure the disk is in the drive
A one shot is just what the name implies, a one time sound timed & synced as such. The opposite of this would be a loop. In Acid if you try to stretch a one shot it'll just be that one sound, a loop will automatically repeat itself as you stretch the sample on the track. Hope that makes since.
search piratebay for arty's loop & sample torrents. Great collections on there for you to start with. Interwebz is full of places you can get a shit ton of sample libraries from, just gotta search a bit for them. Or do what a lot of us digital DJ types do, use FL Studio to make your sample & then the simplicity of ACID to arrange them in your tracks.
Hey guys, could someone tell me how to change the bass, mids and the treble or the tempo in in a single (individual) song/track in the timeline in sony acid pro 7? I'm kinda new to sony acid so I could really use some help.

hey jacksonwonderful, this is cool, but i wanted to ask where did u get ur drum sketches, the folder you were is was sony curriculum and u had all the beats in it, where did u get them, pls give me a link...
ok i just made an account so i could ask you something about this video...i use a keyboard to get my beats, sounds, etc...but i want to use direct audio instead of midi so i took a audio chord put one end in the mic jack on my computer and one end in my head phone jack in my keyboard...when i play back the sound i hear it but in the back ground i also hear static noises that i dont really want if theres anything you can tell me about this probablem i would really appreciate it
Believe it or not, you just opened a can of worms. An almost infinite number of factors may be at work-- your monitor, lights in the room, your cable, your inputs and outputs, other electronic devices in the room. Try systematically ruling out every such posibility. You may end up wanting to buy an audio interface or a feedback/hum eliminator. Try googling "hum eliminator" or "hum in audio" for more information.
dj pain, I have mad respect for you. I really did not know who you were until i was checking a website out that listed top producers. Your name came up. I said hell! I watched his acid tutorial a few months ago. So this is cool to show love on the beatmaking tip like this. Much respect to you. have you ever thought about making a pdf file on beat making using acid and sell it? I would buy it. Peace and happy new year.
I have to get back with you on that one. I was doing some quick surfing on beatmaking and the article was about the most slept on, underground producers. Let me check!
Maybe you should holla at me if you lookin for some free music sh!t. i got a mpc a triton , fruity loops and sonar . i even got a dell like ya computer and i used to use acid 5.0(got it from lime wire way back) but if that sh!t can run vst's and vsti's u should holla at me. ill tell you where to get some hi quality stuff like melodyne , hypersonic2 ,um circle vsti ect.
i find myself chopping more cds than vinyl in acid because it is a lot cleaner and more precise to chop than vinyl i chop the vinyl up in the akai mv.but acid is a incredible piece of software
Hey man, just wondering how much did you pay for everything you've got in all? I want to get into beat making, but I really have no idea where to start.
depends on the type of music ur making. if ur into hip hop u could get a mpc 4 about 400 dollars on ebay. that'll let u sample drums and sample other sounds. or u could buy reason 4 or fl studio 7 at like guitar center for around 400 dollars for reason and as low as a hundred dollars for fl studio. u can also get a midi controller for 100 bucks. basically 200 bucks and a pc or mac can get u started
its secretive because its illegal :)... make your own loops and you wont get sued. dr dres been sued for millions because of his sampling. but oh well. nice vid and keep hip hop alive.
Well, no, that's not true at all. Dre was sued because of his uncleared sampling. There's nothing illegal about sampling. It has been going on since the 50's in all genres of music. I would argue that sampling is hip-hop's life blood (at least a good percentage of it), so to tie the topic of sampling to your last line, samples are keeping hip-hop alive.
BUT HIP HOP ISN'T ALIVE! it died at the turn off the century and it's ashame i haven't heard a song, ANY song that i like in 9 years! it's time for hip hop to evolve. and anyone that thinks rappers like lil wayne & game is are greatest rappers alive YOUR SMOKING CRACK! he's the worst! a cross over commercial rapper is what he is! and game is like the garbage on the bottom of my shoe. 10 years from now noone will remeber them!
Hip-hop has evolved, it just hasn't evolved into something you like. I mean, hip-hop has changed considerably within the last decade, from electro to neo-soul to snap music to boom bap... if you haven't heard anything you've liked in 9 years, maybe you shouldn't hold your breath. EPMD just dropped. Grandmaster Flash is about to as well.
and check the internet man, myspace facebook, all the music sites like soundclick. there are many many artists who are sticking to the formula and building upon it, hip hop isnt dead, it pulled a machiavelli
true Hip Hop is still alive. Its just not so easy to find anymore. You usually wont find it on the radio or even on the top 40 Lists. A lot of it is in the Underground scene. You just gotta look for it. Respect to people like Canibus, Ras KAss, Immortal TEch, Common, etc...:)
I'm a top 40 radio dj and we play common all the time...
Hip-hop is everywhere. It has problems, but it's all the same culture. If hip-hop were a person, she'd have a bad infection in half of her body... but she can't deny that half. The more she denies and ignores it, the worse it gets.
Nah but sampling is fun but some folks will run your pockets unless you do it on a small scale but once you start cracking 100,000 in sales those artist are coming for there pie. lol
yeah actually u can sample as much as you want as long as you dont profit from it. its not illegal you know, just yeah when u get big they want their cut
That was a decent tutorial. Good job. I've never used Acid for more than pasting loops together. I know it's capable of more than that but since I mostly deal with audio(and since I bought EZdrummer) I never felt the need to take it any further(I primarily use Cubase). Cool tutorial though.
I'm flattered, but it's not necessary to post so many comments.
The questions you are asking below are addressed in my other videos. None of the videos or tutorials available on the market are going to turn you into a great producer right away-- it will take years. I was 14 when I started and I was terrible. Just be patient and work hard. Dedication will prevail.
Im looking to see if i wanna purchase this. I have the "trial" version. And it has no loops. When you have the regular version, do you get the Media manager and all the samples and loops from the "Get Media" option?
Dude, cool vids. Ive been using acid since 2.0. Its hard to find other cats that that can utilize its beyond just laying down loops. And I totally agree...its more the artist than the paint brush, you dont always have to have the most recent version of pro tools to make heat. Props.
I think it's because music studio doesn't allow for midi support-- Acid pro is the full-featured version of ACID. It costs most, but it supports all VST and Direct X plug-ins, all midi devices and all VST instruments.
yo dude, i wana knoe if if i can record music in the SONY ACID 7, without having a MIDI keyboard, and only a typing keyboard. PLZZZZ LET ME KNOE MAN iight??
Man I think I'm gonna put up my own Acid vid I have been using it since version 1. Its cool that people are starting to get into it. Also you should add that Danger Mouse, producer for Gnarls Barkley uses Acid. Good video.
Hello, Can anyone chelp.. how to get vocal out from a track, by using Acid pro. Is there any plug-ins?? I'm trying to make a re-mix, but i need to get only the vocal out from an orginal track and mix with a new beat.

dj pain, I have mad respect for you. I really did not know who you were until i was checking a website out that listed top producers. Your name came up. I said hell! I watched his acid tutorial a few months ago. So this is cool to show love on the beatmaking tip like this. Much respect to you. have you ever thought about making a pdf file on beat making using acid and sell it? I would buy it. Peace and happy new year.

I have to get back with you on that one. I was doing some quick surfing on beatmaking and the article was about the most slept on, underground producers. Let me check!

No, but what you said was, "its illegal." And it's not illegal. So I said you were mistaken. Plain and simple.
jacksonwonderful 3 years ago
Hey man, just wondering how much did you pay for everything you've got in all? I want to get into beat making, but I really have no idea where to start.
cutupyo 3 years ago
depends on the type of music ur making. if ur into hip hop u could get a mpc 4 about 400 dollars on ebay. that'll let u sample drums and sample other sounds. or u could buy reason 4 or fl studio 7 at like guitar center for around 400 dollars for reason and as low as a hundred dollars for fl studio. u can also get a midi controller for 100 bucks. basically 200 bucks and a pc or mac can get u started
YungCyfe 3 years ago
its secretive because its illegal :)... make your own loops and you wont get sued. dr dres been sued for millions because of his sampling. but oh well. nice vid and keep hip hop alive.
alieco 3 years ago
Well, no, that's not true at all. Dre was sued because of his uncleared sampling. There's nothing illegal about sampling. It has been going on since the 50's in all genres of music. I would argue that sampling is hip-hop's life blood (at least a good percentage of it), so to tie the topic of sampling to your last line, samples are keeping hip-hop alive.
jacksonwonderful 3 years ago
BUT HIP HOP ISN'T ALIVE! it died at the turn off the century and it's ashame i haven't heard a song, ANY song that i like in 9 years! it's time for hip hop to evolve. and anyone that thinks rappers like lil wayne & game is are greatest rappers alive YOUR SMOKING CRACK! he's the worst! a cross over commercial rapper is what he is! and game is like the garbage on the bottom of my shoe. 10 years from now noone will remeber them!
abcdefghij73 3 years ago
Hip-hop has evolved, it just hasn't evolved into something you like. I mean, hip-hop has changed considerably within the last decade, from electro to neo-soul to snap music to boom bap... if you haven't heard anything you've liked in 9 years, maybe you shouldn't hold your breath. EPMD just dropped. Grandmaster Flash is about to as well.
jacksonwonderful 3 years ago
and check the internet man, myspace facebook, all the music sites like soundclick. there are many many artists who are sticking to the formula and building upon it, hip hop isnt dead, it pulled a machiavelli
YungCyfe 3 years ago
true Hip Hop is still alive. Its just not so easy to find anymore. You usually wont find it on the radio or even on the top 40 Lists. A lot of it is in the Underground scene. You just gotta look for it. Respect to people like Canibus, Ras KAss, Immortal TEch, Common, etc...:)

Hip-hop is everywhere. It has problems, but it's all the same culture. If hip-hop were a person, she'd have a bad infection in half of her body... but she can't deny that half. The more she denies and ignores it, the worse it gets.
jacksonwonderful 3 years ago
bullshit you can sample 4 bars of any body shit
abcdefghij73 3 years ago 2
Not for free. There is no 4-bar or 6-second rule. Trust me. My first major placement included a sample.
jacksonwonderful 3 years ago
yeah you cant go to jail for sampling
YungCyfe 3 years ago
Nah but sampling is fun but some folks will run your pockets unless you do it on a small scale but once you start cracking 100,000 in sales those artist are coming for there pie. lol

yeah actually u can sample as much as you want as long as you dont profit from it. its not illegal you know, just yeah when u get big they want their cut

very nice tutorial bro , and thats a sick beat too lol
Destiny4Travail 3 years ago
That was a decent tutorial. Good job. I've never used Acid for more than pasting loops together. I know it's capable of more than that but since I mostly deal with audio(and since I bought EZdrummer) I never felt the need to take it any further(I primarily use Cubase). Cool tutorial though.

I'm flattered, but it's not necessary to post so many comments.
The questions you are asking below are addressed in my other videos. None of the videos or tutorials available on the market are going to turn you into a great producer right away-- it will take years. I was 14 when I started and I was terrible. Just be patient and work hard. Dedication will prevail.

Im looking to see if i wanna purchase this. I have the "trial" version. And it has no loops. When you have the regular version, do you get the Media manager and all the samples and loops from the "Get Media" option?

Dude, cool vids. Ive been using acid since 2.0. Its hard to find other cats that that can utilize its beyond just laying down loops. And I totally agree...its more the artist than the paint brush, you dont always have to have the most recent version of pro tools to make heat. Props.

Why won't my keyboard show up in acid music studio
krowland08 3 years ago
I think it's because music studio doesn't allow for midi support-- Acid pro is the full-featured version of ACID. It costs most, but it supports all VST and Direct X plug-ins, all midi devices and all VST instruments.
jacksonwonderful 3 years ago
would it support celemony melodyne
StreekzDJStreekz 3 years ago
I have no idea what that is, but ACID supports at direct x and vst plug-ins.
