    People gave up on the machine too quick. Dig deep into the MV and you will find gold. Best hardware sequencer I have ever used. I say oh well to those that want instant gratification. You can have your new machines with buggy software. I got a best kept secret here!

      Did you bang that patter out on the tracks? Or did you step record it in?

    The MV is the most powerful and flexible hardware sequencer ever made! That is a strong statement, but you really can't even begin to understand the power and flexibility that lies beneath the hood of this thing! You are right, if the world only knew. Very few people have tapped into the secret knowledge of this sequencer. The things this sequencer allows you to do...........unreal!

    @reedereed What you heard was not an audio track. That was straight off of youtube. I had computer going into my mixer as well as the MV. I let video clip play and just hit the MV play button on the 1 beat. I used tap tempo to lock in BPM's and used my ear and some experimentation to dial in the swing feel.

  • @WaxDat8800
    @WaxDat8800  12 лет назад +1

    @beataroundthekush. I feel you. But it was just meant to show that the MV can do anything you want it to, old or new.

    @JoeyC214 Those drums were from Impeach the President ( a famous break) . I dont have the wax just an .mp3. SO what I did was chop it with recycle. Import to my daw (reaper) for some light fx and then rendered the file and put on a thumb drive. I then put file in Serato Scratch, pitched my turntable to 45 and sampled into my SP 404. I then recorded SP 404 to Cassette Tape. From There I recorded file to Digital multitracker, Then back to computer and rechopped in recycle. Then I made an .MVO

  • @WaxDat8800
    @WaxDat8800  12 лет назад +1

    @Angel Rivera. Okay.. but Grap Luva uses a SP, there is no doubt about that. It locked right into his swing. If it were nowhere close, it would have been way off. I used an SP for years so I know the SP swing well. As far as ring modulation? I never said anything about the SP sound.

  • @WaxDat8800
    @WaxDat8800  11 лет назад +1

    @ Ben crea. No assumption was made. This has more to do with the SP has some magical swing school of thought that's out there. That's why I said I didn't know what type of swing he used, or even if at all like you said. Video just shows technique to use the ridiculous quantize options that the MV has to lock into another machines " so called feel"

  • @drumatic
    @drumatic 12 лет назад +3

    The SP locks on if you midi-clock / sync it to a master... but if you let it be, the SP goes off crazy... that's because it's alive.

  • @WaxDat8800
    @WaxDat8800  12 лет назад +1

    @rockhills No. What is going on is imagine if you were at the computer and played a video on youtube. You then hit start on said sequencer and tried to link them up. They are connected in no way and on opposite sides of the room. Thats whats going on. I had video running on youtube and just hit play on my MV (they are not hook up midi or audio wise). I figured out the BPM of the video beat and hit play at start of measure. Notice no double kicks or snares. The swing is recreated faithfully.

  • @WaxDat8800
    @WaxDat8800  11 лет назад +1

    Also the way samples are chopped affects swing as does the velocity of ghost notes. As well as a beat that is unquantized.

    @drumatic that goes for just about any drum machine out there, the more midi notes/events it has to process, the more jitter or error or just plain sloppiness starts to creep in as the processor starts to struggle.

  • @UrbanJournal

    Some of the comments on this video have always been funny to me over the years. It’s literally in sync and people still say it’s not the same. The sound is a different argument, this video is about swing. I understand people love their machines though lol.
    I’ve always wished you could go back to look at the input quantize like you could the track quantize.
    It was nice coming back to some classics. MV is still the greatest sampler of all time.
    Peace Wax Dat. Hope you’re well.

      @oDJOldskull 9 лет назад

      WaxDat8800 Man, I still claim you're incredible. It's really not the equipment but man behind it. That's first thing you taught me. I make good beats but I was always afraid that 'what if I lose my mv, i won't be making dope stuff anymore'. Now I say, geez, even with akai s2000 and amiga 1200 I'll be banging. And second thing - this time more technical - I figured out cool values for swing in terms of layering hihat. It gives that Dilla feeling to it, fits perfectly to jazz samples. Love you man, this video was I think the most important influence I ever fell on. And I say that with regard to Dilla, MF Doom, Knxwledge, dj harrison, premier etc. I have downloaded it off from youtube afraid that you can once delete it or your account may be shut down hehe. Now it's time to study it and experiment. Thanks once again, you're amazing.

  • @reedereed
    @reedereed 12 лет назад +1

    Love the video bro! That's some great info on the quantize function of the MV. Dope! Did you make a audio track first then put your beat on top? However you did it, I'm feelin' it. I usually use the quantize just for like one instrument, like maybe the kick, then I take it off completely.

    No MPC vid needed. I gave the formula in this video. All you have to do is find a song that has the swing you want and you know uses a MPC. Then follow what I did in this video. There really is no magic to swing.

  • @BOORCHESS
    @BOORCHESS 8 лет назад +2

    forgive my ignorance. When you say over-locking the shuffle onto the grid input quantize. Does this mean you first record the drum part with the input quantize and then when the sequence is recorded you tweak it with the shuffle settings ?

    • @DaveDaves
      @DaveDaves 7 лет назад +1

      ha loved this video, but must admit I had same inital reaction; I thought author was tryna say 'overclocking' (which means running a CPU faster than its rated mhz - speed - which is often possible and leads to better performance, but is risky as CPU may overheat & melt) - tryna make sense of that idea I figured he meant to overLOAD the CPU with so much MIDI data at once that it's processed with latency, perhaps coming out cool in some way. But as a hxc MC-909 & MC-307 user, I now know exactly what he's saying, and so 'double-quantizing' would make perfect sense...because yes the magic of these machines is ALL in the various quanization options, both groove quantization and recording quanitzation modes are super important to every single note I record in my grooveboxes, but I hadn't quite thought of their interplay! On the mc-909 you get slightly different options, but I see how this could be magic - like, I always do 16th note quantization (unless im gonna play faster notes like 16th triplets, i'll set it accordingly if so) and set between 87%-95% quantization amount for realtime recording quantize. But now im seeing that I could set the %amount during rec much lower, but then clean up strays with the groove quantization later!

    • @WaxDat8800
      @WaxDat8800  8 лет назад +5

      Raphael Gordon. good question. I got the answer. If you want to sound close to an MPC, Set input quantize to 120 and a 50 percent rate...The problem is sequencer resolution. MPCs for the most part are 96 per quarter note. The MV is 480 per quarter note. The higher the resolution, the worst or more exposed your sloppy timing becomes. Most people, unless they are drummers with years of metronome training, are not as tight with their timing as they would think. It takes practice on the MV to get your timing right with the quantize off. What you are experiencing is normal coming from the MPC. That's why people used double time on the MPC because it "tricks" sequencer into 192 ticks per quarter note. And people use that for a looser and not so rigid feel.
