MPD24 soul sample ableton live 8

[sarinoah]

How do you connect your mpd with ableton?

[JuzaPIMPnMOB]

-dances. lmao

[mu5ic3oy]

Nicely done!

[swasko]

very nice beat dude

[SnubCluster]

hey man, how did you set up your midi controller to trigger a sample in sync with your hand rhythm? when i hit the banks my samples are, on it plays them synchronized with ableton's tempo and wont let me be too rhythmic with the controller

[rbertsch8]

@SnubCluster theres no synching or quantization involved with the samples here, the only thing quantized is the beat but the samples play whenever i touch the pads

[mpusch88]

@SnubCluster

change quantization to 1/32, should do the trick

[EddyKnucks]

@SnubCluster press ctrl 0 to turn quantize off...

[akochman3]

dope sauce my friend...but I am a sucker for some rimshot! Keep it real

[jacsonstringer]

where have i heard those trumpets before?

[roboedar]

what do you think of the axiom? waste of money?

[rbertsch8]

@roboedar

they are relatively cheap so i wouldn't call it a waste of money, it is all plastic and the knobs and buttons feel fairly cheap, and im not really into the feel of the keys but i paid less than a hundred bucks for it and i don't expect much more in that price range.

[orlandoxx87]

@roboedar  no equipment is a waste of money - albert eyyystein lol

[yilly1972]

i just got mpd 26 and i need help to work ableton and my samples together. youre a beasst. help please

[wylanneely]

please bro help

i got ableton and mpd 26

barley can use either of them

i got talent but no way to learn, how did u learn? tutorials or did u someone teach you?

btw sick track

[rbertsch8]

@wylanneely

completely self taught from youtube and other websites, mostly youtube tutorials. Ableton can be very overwhelming at first just stick with it my dude.

[NewYorkStateOfCrime]

@wylanneely Waddup . I got the same problem. I got Ableton and the MPD26 and I watch some of these videos...And ppl get to loop stuff. You know how to loop ?

[oObadphishOo]

thats a sick sample

[alohafromwaimea]

the pad banks on the impulse start at note 60 and go up 2 notes from there. If you have an mpd24 like this guy it's super easy to change the notes and create a preset. When you load an audio file into ableton in the sample window on the bottom left it tells you the bpm's for that sample and then from there you can decide to warp or not to warp, you can even use the quantize command and warp the sample to the exact tempo you want. ableton is tough at first, but easy once you figure out basics

[TheFreshPeddler]

@ssamfresh - the guy below already said the name of the sample, it takes all of two seconds to find it on youtube. my advice though is do some searchin on your own. youtube will list similar music and you can find some cool shit that 5 other people from this page arent using. i get a lot of good samples from this site. if only i still had imeem to pull from

[ssamfresh]

@TheFreshPeddler ok thanks

[ieatdoody]

found it. this is movin too slow by the exciters

[ieatdoody]

I don't think there is a song called caviar and chitlins by the exciters. only an album. are you thinking of the atomic fireballs?

[SmexOne]

catchy sample but the drums suck..

[VriceTV]

awesome work dude, ableton drum pad tutorial please?

[plasticpunch]

the sample is without beat? you equalized it ?

great song!

[plasticpunch]

did you add the beat? how did you find the timing ?

[rbertsch8]

@plasticpunch ya i made the beat and i found the timing by warping it in ableton, you can search youtube for tutorials on it

[SergeantHi5]

nice sounds great, did you time stretch/warp the sample in ableton?

[tcw00]

ableton is fucking weird and confusing. I am curious to know how the hell people get their drum pads in order. No decent tutorials on here

[rbertsch8]

@tcw00 i've had a couple people ask me about that i think i'll make a quick tutorial vid it's really pretty easy

[tcw00]

@rbertsch8 Thanks man. Oh and sorry about the cursing lol

[roboedar]

@tcw00 at first glance any daw can seem confusing, but really ableton is as easy as it gets. putting samples onto pads is as easy as opening up say, the drum rack, and dragging/dropping the files onto the pad.

[tcw00]

@roboedar  I have the live light software and Im going to try to give it another go.

[tcw00]

I always wanted the Axiom 25. Looks lovely:)

[SnubCluster]

this awesome man, so catchy

[ebanga197]

nice sample and chop work!

good job :)

[ChriSxJetSon]

are the vocals from the same sample. whenever it comes in like "oooo"

[rbertsch8]

@ChriSxJetSon if by same sample you mean same song? then yes, the first part without the "oooohs" was 2 bars from the intro of the song and the sample with the "oooohs" was 2 bars later in the song

[ChriSxJetSon]

@rbertsch8 so did u like layer them. play one chopped sample over the other or did u do the first one and then switched to the second one

[rbertsch8]

@ChriSxJetSon ohhhh i see what you're asking, no i didn't layer them, they are just 2 different sections of the song, one had the ooh's in it one didnt, they both had the same horns. If you listen close you can hear the snare i tried to filter out in the sample with oooh's

[randyp311]

@rbertsch8 so all you did is switch banks?

[rbertsch8]

@randyp311 yessir

[ChriSxJetSon]

@ChriSxJetSon ohhh okay i gotchu now. i have trouble when i sample to filter out snares and drums.

[doenvan]

is that an m-audio keyboard ure using sir?

[rbertsch8]

@doenvan sure is, axiom 25

[goldchainbeats]

sick mang really good beat

[supreme60s]

For some Reason every-time use Ableton My Drum Samples are All shuffles. They are not in order like yours. I appreciate your Help:)

[rbertsch8]

@supreme60s

you have to change the midi notes on your MPD. The pads are usually preset to play scales which skips a lot of notes. I made a custom preset where the pads play midi notes 0-15 thats how they are all in order. it sounds complicated but its all in the manual

[supreme60s]

@rbertsch8 Ok Awesome. Thanks so much. Sorry for bugging you lol ! ill try it to see if it works for me

[supreme60s]

how do you dump a whole song on all the pads b/c i am having this trouble

[rbertsch8]

@supreme60s

you don't dump a whole song on the pads. for this sample i just used 2 bars of the intro to this song. on ableton, once you have the 2 bars in a clip, right click it and click slice to midi, then choose what beat to slice on, and voila

[supreme60s]

Ok Thanks so Much. I will Eventually get the Hang of it Hopefully. It looks very fun. I purchased a Mpd18

[supreme60s]

I finally figured out how to slice it:) Thanks so Much. Have you ever Had the Problem when you pad sounds are mixed up though?

[rbertsch8]

@PinchHitterMuzik

go for it man ill even send you the song if you pm me your email

[supreme60s]

Damn this is nice. does anyone know how to set up a Akai mpd18 Midi controller to Ableton. im so lost

[lhcorp06]

hey. are those samples actually from the song "triste" by camilo sesto? I just love those trumpet sounds but I couldnt hear anything in the song "triste" that sound even remotely like your samples....:) could you maybe post a link to that song?? thx :D

[rbertsch8]

whoops wrong sample, i changed it to the right song now, i can't post a link on here cuz i couldnt find it on youtube so you'll have to find it yourself

[lhcorp06]

thanks:D

[minunimionpeep]

what plugin do u use for tha samples and the mpd? i've tryied impluse but it's only 4 8 pads.. any help?

[rbertsch8]

@minunimionpeep hey man, drum rack is your best friend. it gives you up to 128 different sample triggers on one track. i would explain how to use it but just search on youtube for ableton drum rack tutorial.

[minunimionpeep]

yea, big thanks, but when i try to trigger my chopped parts on the mpd, they only play when the pads are pushed.. i don't get that... im new on ableton,sorrz

[rbertsch8]

@minunimionpeep

find the "release" and turn it all the way up, now it plays the whole chop when its pressed one time

[Liteblufootsoldier]

Crazy beat man. I want to use abelton to simply timestretch say a 4bar loop then bring it into reason recycle to chop it further to be used in reason itself can it be done ????

[rbertsch8]

@Liteblufootsoldier

ya you can timestretch a loop in ableton and then export it as a .wav to reason very easily

im not familiar with reason i use only ableton, but i know both programs are fully capable of doing both of those things by themselves so i dunno why you would need ableton unless reason doesnt do timestretching well

[Liteblufootsoldier]

Thanks for the promt reply !!! Yeah recycle's stretch is not that great...Someone recomended I use abelton for stretching. At the moment I'm just trying to familiarise myself with abelton.....I'm more used to fl studio and reason.

Cheers

[djlogic2008]

dope track....i use ableton live 8 also......ableton is a beast......

[Cyrius1]

Nice sample and use... good job

[deezydmv]

Damn man that was tight! Nice sample find too!

[czaezaar]

hey! it's awesome! can't you tell me what album can it be ? i read the info there...but maybe.. pls!

[rbertsch8]

hmm are you asking where i got the sample? Its called Camilo Sesto Triste Final. I dont know what album its from but thats the song name, I can send it to you if you PM me.

-Ross

[GlassJAw413]

[brucefarmer1]
