Amen break workout

[skatejam7]

dont understand where the amen is coming from?

[ydrjtt]

sick man

[DoctorSess]

hahah yeah mad haters around here...jeez

[hypers36]

Not amazing but defiantly not a negative rating worth. It's always interesting to see what other artists mess around with especially if you want to preview gear you're considering buying. So, not bad. Thank you for sharing.

[AX53B60]

Nice set of equipment you got there!

[djjoep100]

nice

[Sonusproject]

"workout"???

sounds like you want to grow some breakbeat muscles..!

Eat more funky drummer spinach kid, it ain't tight, it ain't musical.

[Jason310M]

meh...

[filtersweeperVCO]

@Jason310M Totally

[AnthonyDavid94]

I totally get these people about using old breaks in an easy way... But still like the sound of a good ol' drum loop with a Kaoss Pad. What was I gonna say..? Oh yeah, I get these peeps, but I also get it that the Amen is irresistible...

[elARTEdelPOOP]

less equals more.

[reconstructiv]

cool too bad i totally destroy the amen break on my esx-1. dont buy so much gear until you learn one piece of it inside and out. cutting at steps 1, 7, and 13 is for n00bs.

[filtersweeperVCO]

@reconstructiv okee dokee. Thanks bud!

[lajungesombre]

i like how you instrument with the filters, reverbs, lfo (or flangers?)....im the same way. i love manipulatin the actual sound....

[Win0Fail1]

nice chaos pad

[blupheonix44]

Dude, your a GEAR WHORE, LOL!!!

Thats more gear than I will ever own... Midi triggers, keyboard, guitar soft synths and sequencers.... I'd LOVE an MC 505 IF I could afford it now, lol....

[filtersweeperVCO]

@blupheonix44 haha gear slutz inc. THat's an old vid too. I got more toys these days.

[filtersweeperVCO]

Chopped the break and timestretched it within the MPC. It's deffinitely not times right! LOL those were the days!

[slynkdnb]

the amen break is sooo 1969.

[filtersweeperVCO]

@slynkdnb It totally is though.

[blupheonix44]

@slynkdnb Dude, Jungle was BUILT on that break.... 1969 my ass.... 1989 more like it =)

[fururnkulez]

if you just pressed "play" button and go away it would sound much better))

[gabrielaSH]

your killing it... sorry!

[rattu123]

Sounds like a prick.

[Conenion]

Nice, man. Is the KAOS pad thingy controlling effects of the MPC or does it have its own? Thanks.

[KalleBlomquist93]

@Conenion

got its own.

[Jexey]

Man I could do that for hours, looks like fun !

[freethebikes]

if your instrument is going to be like 4 buttons, the least you can do is stay on beat with them...

[filtersweeperVCO]

The sequencer is playing all breaks simutaneously. I am merely soloing each one by pressing the buttons. They were not accurately chopped to be begin with. Good ear.

[andosmate]

Sounds like shit.

[filtersweeperVCO]

haha nice!

[theroob]

theAfterlife: you could use chaos pad with guitar but you need to send guitar to amp first and line out to chaos pad and then line in to you speakers. Not like a stomp box, more like a rack mounted effects processor.

the X y Axis is the up-down siude to side on the oad itself, controls the effects. hit me up if you want to know more, I have had several of these toys. they are great fun. I have one hooked to my TV right now for 'playing around'

[zooll34]

i liked it

[DreHectik]

that was kinda dope...

[djjcw]

Cool!

[Thatsthebadger1]

what make is the kaos pad? got a basic idea of what you can do..it's touch sensitive to alter pitch etc right?

[filtersweeperVCO]

korg. The touch screen is a gate to effects, and there are several effects mapped to the x,y axis. Lots of delays, flangers, pitch effects etc.. one of the best pieces in my kit at the moment. I use it on every tune.

[TheAfterIife]

What's a Kaos pad? What's the X,Y, Axis? I play guitar and Matt Bellamy from Muse has a Mason with a Kaos pad and I was seriously considering buying it but I can't if I don't even know whether this thing is worth the money.

[mikeward25]

So you're considering buying something when you don't even know what it is? And how do you not know what the X and Y axis are? Haven't you ever taken a math class?

[TheAfterIife]

I do. I'm really good at math, actually. I don't know ANYTHING about this Kaoss Pad other than it costs around 250 USD. I don't know if the X and Y axis you are talking about here are the same used in math and I really don't understand anything about mapping effects to these axis.

But thanks for not answering my question, you useless moron.

[mikeward25]

I didn't answer your question because it wasn't asked to me. I don't know anything about the Kaoss pad, I was merely pointing out your stupidity.

[TheAfterIife]

If you know the answer you should still tell people, even if they didn't ask you. But still.. mmmm.. guess I lost the argument there.

[rusteepipe]

whats a maths class

[ukyfug]

the kaos pad is like a touchscreen multi effect pedal instead of a stomp box or pedal you run your finger on the glowing screen the x y axis is the hight and width of the screen

[reconstructiv]

@ukyfug except its REALLY preset sounding and everyone has it. i recommend doing your own thing and making your own sound instead of going for the cheesy easy

[autte]

it does not worth the amount of money they wanna for it........... if i was in you i wouldn't buy it

[ponyboner]

amen brother! this is pretty much my fantasy.

[bartolome3]

try again.

[wiz189]

kaos pad!

[riskybusiness80]

dont mean to be rude but your just triggering a loop. no great skill needed

[filtersweeperVCO]

for sure, but drum break was time stretched, eq'd, compressed etc. Then trimmed up to fit the bar/time. Then different segments were assigned to different pads. It was not to show skill, but merely for fun. I hope you experienced that emotion watching. It was not to upset...

[matparkinson]

i dont think the break is cut 100% correct. seems a little off time. maybe just me

[TyBong]

Amen, Brother

[Nicetry75]

add some gabber kicks and metal screams and you'll sound just like drumcorps :D

[rehctelfnaes]

Hehe.

I can't tell if you're making fun of Drumcorps or not.

But you best watch yourself boy.

[Nicetry75]

i'm not! D: i was complementing him on his break work and how it's really on par with some of these higher producers.

[GreenGoody]

Bust the fader damn it!

[filtersweeperVCO]

what does that mean?

[owlwink]

what does that mean>//?

[PrivateBuckwheat]

That's pretty awesome. I guess most DJs work with their drum breaks like this. Some of the crazy breakcore artists like Venetian Snares must have tons of breaks loaded into their samplers though; every measure seems to sound like a different beat.

[reconstructiv]

@PrivateBuckwheat venetian snares = Renoise + a lot of meth. im serious, im not even kidding about that.

[PrivateBuckwheat]

@reconstructiv Agreed.

[kinglynx]

how do u learn to use all them? do u hav lessons?

[filtersweeperVCO]

just by reading the manuels and playing around trying different things. Also spending time on different forums.

[owlwink]

practice practice,buy em and learn em.

[DalethMan]

Thats impresive! awesome handling.

[hsifylleg]

Nice :-)
