This is more than a tutorial on how to chop i wont explain the conventional way of chopping(press this button, press that button, and so on..) i will be explaining how you choose what to chop and why to choose certain sections that you may not even want but it keeps your beat organized and fitting.

If you think that what i explain in this video wouldnt work with any sample send me one and hopefully ill sample it and post a reply to this video with your sample.

if i get positive feedback/subscriptions ill post more videos with more of my samples, more in depth tutorials, and maybe even some beats from reason and fl studio. thanks for watching :)

  • First, that sample was dope! I think that when you say measures, people are like wtf because everything is usually referred to in bars in hiphop. The way you chopped it was cool. I think that chopping it by measures restricts your bpm. I have no clue what the stick you were talking about thats burning in slow motion.Also its not stealing, its sampling! I think that sometimes you cant get 8 measures of a song because there's vocals on the break. Also some people chop only notes and stabs.

  • @jjbing3 thanks man, doesnt really have to be 8 measures i was just saying that its easier if each pad has an equal number of beats after you chop your sample. like pads 1-8 all having 1beat or all having 2 beats...etc that way you can go back and rechop for instance a stab from the even chops that you might not want and its much easier to work with

see all
