Anyone upset about pulling apart samples, modifying and adding effects etc needs to see how Havoc flipped the sample for Survival of the Fittest. As a wise man once said ....You Must Learn!!!!!
Yeah I have seen a few people make that comment to me. It is a bit strange I must say
I'm confused...what do you mean by "pulling apart samples"?
@@ascendedmasta slicing up samples into many small pieces and making something completely new out of the pieces. I don't have a problem with that, i love it
Pierre Bourne… simply said 🔥
Why does it make you upset?
guilty as charged, except for the sacred sample thing, I feel guilty just using it as it is lol. the stuff I made first were just straight up my drums slapped on a sample, now, in my unreleased trap beats, I go in to take the flavourful stuff that feel good alone and manipulate that a lot to a point where it sounds nothing like what I initially liked. and that's why my wife left me.
ollol was not expecting that ending. Who needs her when you have sweet sampled beats
I felt like this until I looked up Kendrick's Sing about me samples. Producer created like nothing lol. Just having the ear to put things together eases my guilt of not doing much, that's a skill in itself.
@@rolandlovett5695 true true
i get that this was supposed to be funny but where is the joke yo i dont get this
@@k-rom8694 there is no joke. my wife just left me. even took the kids and the dog too.
Sampling made sense to me the moment i started making chops on the chord changes, at the end of the day whether you sample or use vsts you're still trying to make a coherent melody.
This is probably a strange suggestion, but you should make a vaporwave tutorial, but also how to be creative with arranging chopped and screwed samples. That genre can be pretty lazy and repetitive, but they're obviously great vaporwave producers like Saint Pepsi who are a lot more creative. Or you could do a deep house/french house tutorial. That'll be cool too.
"So please dont give me records I cant sample" -- Kanye West
(They Say - Common feat. Kanye West)
When you said just because a song sounds good doesn't mean you can sample it, that came to mind instantly lol
Hahah great reference
I feel like Bassline variety (for lofi) and sampling have always been my most difficult points to improve. So Thanks for the Advice on this. 👌🏼💥
I'd like you to do a video on the obstacles you faced with samples and copyrights from your own experiences and how you overcame them
Never really had any I must say
Your videos help me so much. Thank you very much Navie D. You are my favorite tutorial maker
The second one is a common problem I have when making beats. I would try to mash a bunch of sample chops together hoping it'll make a melody, but it'll end up being a monotonous loop
Great video!!
though I don't use FL studio I feel like I was able to benefit from watching these to apply some of the techniques in Logic. Really broke down for me how to effetely capture what I hear when creating as well as not becoming so complex that the idea becomes lost in the noise. much love.
Awesome! I try to make my videos so any DAW user can get value out of them
4:33 the main reason i overchop in samples is not having cleared the sample and hoping to get away with it
You are a best Teacher of fl studio . Very Good Work
Just started trying to learn how to sample on my Mpc live and got frustrated trying all these techniques glad I found this channel
You're speaking directly into my soul, Navie!!
👻 I speak to souls
@@NavieD on that note, happy early Halloween! Hope everything is good your way!
You sooo amazing mannnn!!!!! Thank you so much🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you, learning alot
Are you guilty of any of these? Let me know!
bless up mi gee
Your most recent beat short was recommended to me now I can’t stop watching
Hahah awesome! Glad you're enjoying my vids my friend

You think a dude like Alchemist doesn't mangle some of his samples to the point of unrecognizable? Sound design opens up so many options
Some is the key word. Most of his beats are simply just loops but basic chops. But they work
@@Prodby_duke you're absolutely right. The new Boldy James record is a little different from that
Great stuff. Thank yoıu
Thank you thank you
Lol.. Your percentage accuracy is remarkable with that 71% stat! Great vid!
Hahah I just made it up my friend
Gems everywhere 💎
💎💎💎
Great share. Something to think about.
Thank you boss!
@@NavieD all love
Really helpful video. I actually EQ certain sounds in my beat like in mixing down vocals (cause ive been learning to engineer too thx to RUclips University). Ill use 2 EQs and use the first one to sweep and cut out nastiness like that too. Hopefully that's a good way of doing it.
Have you found this method helps?
@@NavieD yes sir definitely depending on the sample and whats going on with it
8:43 thats exactly what happened with me. I was trying to sample a certain section of the song Promises by Basia. But when I did it, it didnt sound the way it did in my head. But then I found another section of the song which fit my drum loop perfectly and allowed me some creative freedom to add more sounds.
Good video
you could also automate the eq to dip at the time of the unwanted freq then bounce & delete the automation lanes after for clutter free project.
If you draw a line from navie's nipple as a vertex, left or right. And connect it to his lowest shirt button you will find that the angle is 29%, which will leave us with an exterior angle to the vertical line with a value of 71%. Which reference to the percentage of brain cells that think about our existence that is made to eventually end.
I have a protractor against my nipple as we speak, just to confirm your math
preach! regarding the sacred sample: haha i liked the comparison with a preset ....changing a preset is disrespectful to the present creator xD
I watched this video and thought of different famous producers as you said don’t do stuff. 🤣.
I do some of this. Some I’m too lazy to do. 🤷🏾♂️
Thanks bro - good topic.
Madlib always has this uncanny notion of when or when not to ' put to much on it...'
I always sort step back for second see what the sample really needs - sometimes it's just chops, parallel comp. / Low and high send through sp303...dig.
Sypooda has been dropping some dope stripped down stuff (new ep) all y'all keeping me inspired. Cheers ✌️
That's a good approach
thank you bro
Thank you for watching Halim!
@@NavieD you,are welcom broth ..i watch evry times yrs lesence of arengment youa ar great
It's been a year on, and I still NEED that sample that's used at 03:36. Please, tell me what pack is it from? I need to know.
Yep
Yeeeep
I love the specificity of 71%...
Love from India sir 🙌🙌🔥
Shout out to you P Town
@@NavieD thanks 🙌🙌🔥📍
I used to cut all my melodies up to 140 by habit. Bad idea. Sometimes you need to. Other times leaving it in actually adds character to the bass. At the end of the day if it sounds good leave it alone. No need to fix what ain't broken by cutting things by habit at a given frequency. Only take out what needs to be taken out and leave the rest alone. It will sound a lot more full and make the bass of your beat sound more unique. Lately I've been trying to not do any EQ work on the low end until I at least add the bass and kick. Then I'll go in and cut what needs to be cut, if anything. Occasionally you get lucky and all the sounds you pick work perfectly together and very little needs done at the end. If only it worked out that way every time. Lol
I know this video was about sampling but this is just a general mixing comment based on the first tip about EQing.
Omg he said the truth some song u just can’t get down with even tho they real good songs I let go of it after 30 min
03:36 beat is 🔥 if its on the cutting room floor, 👀 can we have it bounced as an .flp? That loop is ❤
Tis sitting on my computer
Lol navie, can u upload a longer segment of this track? It hasca dead presidents vibe to it. I keep clicking and listening to the timestamp 😟
love how he trolled all these "99% are doing this wrong" clickbait youtubers
I am a clickbaiter too. I have joined the dark side
@@NavieD lol
💎💎🤘🏾

I feel like pulling apart samples and tweaking them to make something new is the whole point of sampling
Sampling is whatever you want it to be my love
I must confess......i find you very charming......Navie d, please make a track "Apache indian" style and show us how you would do it....
The CHOP one is the most annoying pattern I hear producers use.
Yeah, I find it very unpleasant to listen to as well
i might be late....... but i do be be here still
How do you come up with that random ass %???
I used to commit all these sins. But since Navie preached the good sampling word for me, I'm now a clean man🙏😇. And also just to ask is it a sin to use loops🤔
Do what's best for the beat! Loops are fine
John Coltrane comes to mind. I absolutely love his music, but I probably wouldn’t look to him as a sample source.
Absolutely. A good song doesn't mean it's a good sample
@@NavieD Facts. I agree.
How do you know that 71% of producers makes these problems? Did you ask every single one of them?
71% such an oddly specific amount
clean. your. samples. but don't smash em! this is a important rule i set for myself very very early not to be lazy about identifying bad freqs and cutting them out
Did it help your music?
@@NavieD By a lot i must admit, I've been producing seriously for less than a year Navie, i am doing my best to improve!
71%, thats an oddly specific number. How did you come about it lol
Idk either but that made me laugh not gonna lie
🤷♀️ just pulled it outta my behind basically
can you do timestamps next time?
The entire video is 10mins long my guy chillll
@@anthemsjam I'm just built different
@@Max91199 word
Yeah maybe I should start including them
I thought it "better" if your beat doesn't sound like the original song... The same people will probably say that sampling is "copying" other music... Isn't the whole idea of using samples to get NEW ideas and create NEW things?
How did you calculate the 71% lmao
I don't even know music theory man
Do yourself a favor and change that
69th like nice
😏 Let's get this video to 420 likes next
HOW DID YOU COME UP WITH 71 PERCENT??? 😳
tf you get the number 71% what
I just made it up basically
@@NavieD lol i assumed
gets clicks ig, good video still
So hard to hear what you're removing at 1:40 - how do you define or hear an "ugly frequency"? Is there such thing? I guess there is if something is completely out of key? I'm just going to loop continuously from 1:23 to 1:40 until I hear what you're doing.- - - OK I cannot believe how much time I spent on this - but yes, running it through Voxengo SPAN, I see you're cutting narrowly about 10db at 180hz, which is an F# or close to it, The chord at that point is a Bm, so and F# wants to turn the chord into an F#/Bb chord, which doesn't exactly fit. It's dissonant. but it's in the Bb minor scale. You must have exceedingly good ears. I have gone through and tuned my 808s so they fit the key, but that just seems paying attention to details like you promote in your videos. This is some next level stuff.
It is a bit easier to hear on studio monitors. Did you listen to the video on your phone or something like this?
@@NavieD I'm listening to it on studio monitors and then later on sony studio headphones, and swapping back and forth. Eventually I pulled it into my DAW and looked at it in Voxengo and saw what you were doing. But hearing it? Still can't even when I can see it what it's doing.
@@NavieD So yes, eventually I understood that you were reducing an F# that was not part of the Bb minor it was playing over.
yes yes agreed
SAMPLING MISTAKE 95% OF PRODUCERS MAKE =
NO ASKING FOR PERMISSION TO USE SAMPLE.
Don’t need To if you can’t afford it….Anyways, they will take their percentage when the time comes. Just make music stop talking abt stuff you don’t know!!
71% percent? 😂😂
I just made that number up
whats up with this guy and beets i dont get it
Oh man I hate 10 min mark videos, there's a lot of unnecessary information, gosh
Sampling is literally, cheating.
However, it was a breakthrough for DJ's who could not afford a studio with top tier engineer! Taking pieces of well regarded recordings and synthesizing them with a mixer and multiple turntables introduce a new idea to the Master of Ceremony (M.C.). It engaged them to an audience that were hungered for a New Genre of Music.
Thus, Hip Hop was introduced!
Using steroids in baseball is technically cheating but it improves the game for the audience.
That is a very different thing to Dilla, for example. There is no 'sampling', it's a vast spectrum of different things under that one word.
