As a fan of sampling I have to thank you for not giving away where you got your samples from it just seems like an hour days everybody's so quick to give the secret away of where they got their samples I haven't seen that in this video so I have to say thank you
Fantastic video, man. It’s always nice to see other artist’s workflow, and your stylized video productions are always top notch and pleasant to watch. Keep it up - you just got another sub! MPC FTW!!!
Best tutorial I ever seen! Hands on precise and functional lesson! Salute I just subbed.I was about ta go ta bed but im inspired ta turn on the MPC ....Thankx
Damn Dr. Zazzo... Another successful delivery!! Can't wait for the next. Keep up the creative flow and take care. I'll think of a suggestion or something maybe if it fits in your timeframe you can break it down. 😎 stay cool
Thx man! Very useful. I have a question about the part you explained you try to keep your drums mono and later on widen it out int you daw. For me I like to do the mixing in the mpc as well. Do I need to widen all the drums up during my mixing proces with the same plugin (stereo widener) as I first make it mono with the same as well? Thx in forward, Peace!
Well on the MPC there isn’t a whole lot of control when your widening it like you would with an actual daw but if you have no choice, you can try doing what you mentioned, run that plug in on the master track as well, give it a small delay (0.2 - 0.9) and widen the highs and mids a little. I’d probably keep the low end mono to keep it tight. Thanks for the comment! 🤘🏼
Very Much appreciated Frilent! Its probably too much to explain in a comment but most importantly a softbox light and a whole mix of editing in premier. I’ll probably put a video together of the video process in the near future 🤘🏼
Loved the beat, Mekazazzo. Simple, but great. Sometimes less is more! I really enjoyed how much time you invested in getting the drums to sound tight. It seems the more you do on the front end, the less you will have to do on the back end, once you export to your daw, in terms of mixing. I do have a quick question: When you were editing the end point of the sample, each time you turned one of the q-links, there is like this "strip" that pops up and it really obstructs the view of when you are trying to edit the end portion of the sample. Is there a way to disable that "strip/pop-up" so that you can clearly see the ending point of the sample using the q-link? Thank you kindly. Have a Happy New Year and thank you for the content. Blessings!
Hey whats up David, Thank you! Yes, quality of quantity forsure as long as things are mixed right. I wasn’t 100% happy with the mix on this but it felt tight enough. I agree, mixing as you go is the way to do it! As for the Q-link menu, yes you can hide it under the general sittings, disable “Show Q-link Status When Touched”. Thanks for taking the time to watch. Happy New Years and happy holidays!
You should explain how to do what you are doing for example the pitch down I saw you do it but I just got my mpc one last 3 weeks ago and have no idea what you did lol
dude you have a neve eq ....those are super dope hardware pieces. I just got my mpc one and I am gonna try and connect my mpc studio controller mk2 to mpc one to use the 1.2 pads and more pads lol
@@Mekazazzo 1.2mm bigger so def more room for error but spacing is wider so depends on the playing style i like both but the one does have more slightly more accurate pads ..i am using them both in tandem
Hey man, really cool video. Quite easy to follow. That is what matters! Just one question: So you have to set the bpm of your track according to your sample (as in 4:10 Min)?
Thank you 🙏🏼 You don’t have to, there is an auto sync but its not always accurate. I usually sync manually and keep the sample as natural as possible without stretching it
The sample is very spacious and he didn't add more samples or a lead or counter melody so it didn't require being moved into a certain frequency range. Additionally the sample sounds good as is he didn't need to go wild on the flip.
Yeah the beat was pretty simple but I also prefer not to EQ or compress as much inside of the MPC and save that for masting in my DAW for more control unless its way to muddy
Congrats on the new machine! I do not but there are some good tutorials out there that explain how to work the MPC menu and what everything does. I’ll be doing more in depth beat making vids soon ✌🏼
I've tried making a beat from scratching my head (I had no vinyl). It didn't work then I tried making a bit from scratching vinyl, I didn't make much...
How can a newbee get any hands on training when you make videos like this. I have watched MANY videos where they are moving so fast and or waving their hands in front of the camera and the screen. There is no way a newbee can understand what you are doing when you make a video like WE are supposed to already know this stuff. Even AKAI says there are plenty of videos online. YEAH but they are way to fast and they should be very slow and precise. That is how people learn. I know it is not your job to teach us. It is a hands on experience. But please SLOW down and be more explanatory. I have watched ONE video that was a big help and the guy even used a pointer to be sure his hands were not blocking the screen. Very slow and very good. No offence to you. But these things need to be thought out in advance. In your video the hands were NOT so much of a problem but the quickness and the fast forwarding is of no help at all SORRY! But thanks anyway.
bruh this isnt a tutorial its showing how his workflow is meaning this is how fast he normally goes while making a beat meaning hes not working on your time hes working on his time if you watch actual tutorials they go way slower chill out with the paragraphs man
Dope man, love seeing other peoples process and you’re rly giving out some game on the mixing side! We need more of these full length joints frfr! 🙏🏾
Very much appreciated DRoyal, definitely will🤘🏼
Great vid. It's easy to convert samples to mono in MPC One. Sample Edit has convert to mono. You can choose L, R or mono sum.
Great work 💯🔥😎
Dope beat it reminds me of the '90s
As a fan of sampling I have to thank you for not giving away where you got your samples from it just seems like an hour days everybody's so quick to give the secret away of where they got their samples I haven't seen that in this video so I have to say thank you
Best intro I have ever seen! Okay I am a bit stoned but it was dope! Subscribed :)
Lol very much appreciated! 😁
Really liked this tutorial, youre calm and its a joy to follow
On the mpc 1000 in the mode trim section you can change your samples from stereo to mono, I'd be surprised if the newer mpc didn't do the same
You are right! After I read your comment I went into the One, and found it under “Sample Edit” > “Process”. Thanks for throwing that out there!
Fantastic video, man. It’s always nice to see other artist’s workflow, and your stylized video productions are always top notch and pleasant to watch. Keep it up - you just got another sub! MPC FTW!!!
EnochLight Thank you for dropping an awesome comment and subbing 🙏🏼 Its very appreciated!
I love this bro,,, Don't stop....

Thank you Rick! Glad the video could helped. Comment makes me want to get back to it
More of these Sir! Really cool to watch
That’s science!! Laser precision!

Hahaa thank you very much Dank! That would be cool, always let me know if you ever have ideas and I’ll definitely look into them 🤘🏼

@@Mekazazzo thx men! Keep up the good work
The lighting in all your videos is really cool, what are you doing to get it looking like that? What are you adding in editing too? You def nailed it
Very Much appreciated Frilent! Its probably too much to explain in a comment but most importantly a softbox light and a whole mix of editing in premier. I’ll probably put a video together of the video process in the near future 🤘🏼
I was waiting for the Wu-Tang Clan to start splitting!
My Question is? What plugin is good too use for static when recording off of the record

Mix and master video
Muito legal seus beat
I could imagine MF DOOM over this track for sure, wanting to grab one of these
Thats a dope compliment! Thanks Slammed Shark 🤘🏼 The MPC One is definitely great for the price
Method man
@@Mekazazzo I ended up grabbing the retro skin MPC one last year, without a doubt one of my best purchases. Loads of fun 😁
@@slammedshark3078 Yo congrats dude! Enjoy the new piece and take your time with it
So do you usually do ghost kicks at 1/64th?
Not always but the drums felt too robotic on this one
yea !
Hey man, really cool video. Quite easy to follow. That is what matters!
Just one question: So you have to set the bpm of your track according to your sample (as in 4:10 Min)?
Thank you 🙏🏼 You don’t have to, there is an auto sync but its not always accurate. I usually sync manually and keep the sample as natural as possible without stretching it
Perhaps I missed it, but it seems like you didn't eq or filter your sample at all. Do you normally just leave your samples as is? Thanks.
The sample is very spacious and he didn't add more samples or a lead or counter melody so it didn't require being moved into a certain frequency range. Additionally the sample sounds good as is he didn't need to go wild on the flip.
Yeah the beat was pretty simple but I also prefer not to EQ or compress as much inside of the MPC and save that for masting in my DAW for more control unless its way to muddy
🔥🔥🔥
Great video and explanation. Take care :)
Thank you Pablo! Its very long but wanted it to be uncut lol
@@Mekazazzo I love the fact that you worked with the samples and sound design showing us the whole process in detail. Again, thank you so much!
I just got an MPC live 2 and I don't know how to use it do u charge to teach ?
Congrats on the new machine! I do not but there are some good tutorials out there that explain how to work the MPC menu and what everything does. I’ll be doing more in depth beat making vids soon ✌🏼
@@Mekazazzo aight it looks the same mine just bigger and it got an built-in speaker
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Bro, are you in a barn or something? Garage? Spare room? I dig the spot man.
@@Susmail-h7i A barn? 😂 Yeah turned the garage into a lab. Thanks man!
@@Mekazazzo There are some sick barns these days. Look up barndominiums, they are pretty awesome.
Very high quality and informative video, thanks a lot!
Nice skin on your One! Is it from Pavelxpowers?
I copped skins from Pavelxpowers for my MPC One & SP 404SX! They’re fire🔥
Thank you! I got mine on styleflip but i’ll def check out pavelxpowers
🙏🏽🔥
I've tried making a beat from scratching my head (I had no vinyl). It didn't work then I tried making a bit from scratching vinyl, I didn't make much...
😂🤣 thats deep bro
#978! 🙌
22 more 🙏
Might wanna fix that title to benefit from the RUclips algos :)
Thank you for calling that out. Can’t believe I never realized 😂
Yeah that’s a hard beat.. i shut the beat down quicker than covid
How did you just record and then go quiet and start chopping without explaining how you got there? I thought this was a tutorial? Wth?😂🤣
Lol my bad, just showing the workflow so its not as detailed as a how to
Moving to fast bro
Damn bro you spent so much time trying to adjust your drums envelopes that by the time you were done you could have made a better beat. Lol
😂 that actually cracked me up. The video is supposed to be uncut, what you expect?
@@Mekazazzo I’m just busting balls 👊🏼 🏀. The sample was dope tho lol
