"Let's grab some Miles"
- Coltrane violently pops up
Great video!
I’ve been doing that since 99 this is the best way to do things you’d never think of , it’s like having the happy accidents button turned on always
Yes that's exactly how I feel about this, if you listen carefully you'll hear a bunch of possible layers
but dont you need to match the key
Give this man his flowers! He's a living legend who's sampling IQ is higher than most... such a great technique. Thank you Marlow.
Word! 💐
No disrespect, but this is how EVERYONE SAMPLED 20 years ago. It’s just how it was done. Marlow would agree.
Very easy to listen to as well he was born to teach💯
This is a game changer for me, it makes it so much easier to match a sample with the overall sound of the beat. Sometimes its hard to see it fitting unless you try it out from the go
Yes makes it a lot easier to find samples, specially from records that you'd never thought of sampling or trying out.
Good for you !! We are so fortunate to have Marco. Now that the game has changed for you, create, create, create. The world needs you . ✅😊
We use to use this technique way back over 30 years ago when samplers had maybe 10-20 seconds maximum sample time. One sample with all the high frequencies all dropped out by using Eq,s leaving it as just a bass if possible then the same sample copied and the reverse Eq treatment done to it I.e all the lows cut out. This way we had full control over the low part and the highs dropping them in a out whenever. Proper old school technique that was pure trial and error ( and quite a bit of work routing through a desk and eq). So much easier these days with one bit of kit that can do everything. Long live the Mpc
Man, I love this. I’m just learning how to sample at 40 and this simple tip got me from struggling with crate digging to hearing stuff all over the place that is now usable! I’d always get scared of jazz like Miles Davis and Herbie Hancock because of the complexity of the music, but this gave me a new lease on them!
Thanks for tuning in, good luck with the sampling
It's crazy how the simplest tools can be the most useful in the right context. I'm definitely going to try this on my SP and listen for samples with the isolator on.
the new MKII? imma do the same brother
@@SmartSleeper how do you do it?
Man I don’t know why I never even considered using the effects on the input of the MPC to take this approach. This is crazy ninja stuff man. You’re always upping my game.
✌🏼Mike thanks for tuning in
@@mpchead always brother. I’m a devoted follower. Hope you know how much we appreciate the knowledge and your skill.
Fire technique! A lot of early 90s hiphop especially tribe was created this way nice to see it’s still a valuable way of making beats 🖤
the sound BEFORE the idea : YESSSSSSS !
Select by frequencies : you can also do the same with synths, or any kind of instrument or signal you want to add in the mix (y) simple but definitely the best way !
Love this technique! Trying to get back to the analogue techniques get's you so connected with the beat and your samples. Great video!
Hey Ryan ✌🏼thanks for tuning in
Wassup Ryann, I felt the same way fam!!🙏🏾✊🏾💚
Wow who knew after all this time of making beats!👏🏾✔️
Man I can’t even express how inspirational your channel is. I’ve always wondered how you were so good at layering and how you did that. This completely changes the game for me.
🙏🏼
This technique opens up the ability to take songs and samples that normally would be off-beat to blend right in. Increases the likelihood of me owning a Live 2 or something more advance in the future!!
between Marlow's videos and Patreon sample packs, you need no other resource for MPC knowledge and sampling. Thanks a lot man
Much appreciated! 🔥🔥🔥
You break it down better than many lectures I've given/received, and the material you're using perfectly compliments the subject. Planned or not, super helpful lol.
Not planned, the technique is really that good. Just gotta know that it works better on certain material.
very helpful technique. I heard one of my favourite house producers uses this technique to keep his tracks stripped back, but sounding full. He'll layer lots of drum sounds, in a similar pattern or use saturation etc to fill the frequency range of his tracks, and this gives it that 'full sound', without adding too many unnecessary elements. Sick video man! Reaffirms for me how important this technique is when selecting samples etc.
Honestly I didn't even realize you could use a high pass while in the sampler on the mpc live....killer.
Right same , I mean I guess I saw the black empty square , but I just never thought about it, does it record the sample with the effects or ..
Also I just realized I've totally been doing this approach but in reverse . I find my sample , put the kill eq filter on it ( no kick drum preset ) Then add my bass and drums and call it a day. Sounds wonderful. I don't think this technique helps with finding new samples to fit your pre existing beat. I think he had a beat and knew that miles Davis track was in the same key and let it play. I spent about 2 hours going through records and sweeping thru different filter kHz and found maybe 1 sample that kind-of worked.
Man.. I’m nowhere near my MPC right now but I had no idea you could do a a high pass filter while sampling.. I don’t have a mixer to do this with (like we did in a the past) so I would filter out the Los after sampling by using one of the effects lines for the track.. Now I won’t have to do that anymore.. and will have an extra spot for effects. I was today years old when I learned this. This machine is full of surprises💯 thanks for the dope tutorial✊🏾😊
You are so articulate and calm & you seem to have great patience. Just by watching your process I felt encouraged to slow down and take my time getting to work. And the workflow tip itself was incredible too - thanks!
Our best tool is listening 👂🏼 you can't rush that, always take your time. Thanks for tuning in Tim ✌🏼
Fuuuuuckkk…I didn’t realise the new MPCs can have fx on the input!!! Been wanting to do this for ages. Thank you Marlow!!!
Been there for long time now. Also on the audio tracks and the looper.
I've been doing this intuitively already but you gave me a lot of inspiration to layer more than 2 samples in a beat. Thanks for your input!
Thanks you change my approach to sampling
Great to hear that 🙏🏼
You see Large Professor do this technique on Rhythm Roullette. It's a natural way of doing it when you're using vinyl and are able to easily adjust the pitch. Creates a lot of 'happy accidents' which is something digital sampling you get less off because of inability to adjust pitch although you can also use the pitch adjuster on the input also, that works well on acapellas too. Trouble with pitch adjusters at the moment is the digital artifacts they create, they make the sample sound weird.
Also you can put a slight LP filter on the input also as well as the HP to get rid of the noisy ride and hi hat cymbals. Sometimes works to put both on.
So dope to think about what frequency range is missing from the beat, not so much what is missing musically! I’ve been thinking way too much about what’s being played and not simply just looking for large gaps in the sound of the beat!
You are a master of filtering. Your beats are sick. Thank you for this video 👍
Appreciate you 🙏🏽
I think most beatmakers do this intuitively already, but it's nice of you to make this video for new producers. The way you explained the idea was great. Excellent job man.
Love this simple and powerful tip!!
🤯 i needed this man! Been a struggle getting layers that don’t muddy everything up 👊🏾
Wassup fam, I was thinking the same thing 🙏🏾✊🏾💚
@@lindasson what’s good man! Yea I’m normally chopping from the same song but i wanna expand beyond that and this has helped a lot so far. I just started going back through my records that i skipped over to see what’s there and finding a few little pieces. Now to get it to blend together and sound like it came from the same source…still working that out!
Dope technic Marlow! Thanks for sharing bro bro!! 🙏🏾👊🏾
Thank you. This will help a lot!
Legendary! 🐐 This sounds so timeless. I'll be trying it out. Thank you Marlow Digs 💎
1) LISTEN is still one of my favourite records on deck right now
2) I graduated from the musicians institute in California in 2005. One of my favourite classes was the one we had with a very famous sound engineer who taught us and quizzed us on frequencies, even though we were in the recording artist program. That class was my most challenging but I ended up getting one of the highest grades because when I got it, I got it...
3) then I started my MpC journey and watched you talk about hi pass and low pass filters for cleaner production and it all REALLY clicked. I wish we saw your screen in this one. But the fact that I know what you were doing just by watching and listening, shows me you’re a damn great teacher and well, I definitely got it now.
Thanks for all you do, Marco! You’ve been pivotal to all 500+ songs I’ve created since dec 2009. Now finally adding my vocals on it.
You’re creating monsters lol😂 ❤❤🎉
Hey Tera, always great to hear that I can bring knowledge with my videos. And the same happens to me with various production tips, it only makes sense after a while. Sometimes we need to reach a certain level for things to make sense. Thanks for tuning in once again 🙏🏼
@@mpchead You are a gift! Can’t wait for what your little one creates! 💕💕
So helpful. Thank you
thanks man for your generosity
rly good idea thank you for making this video
Definitely a dope tip, I'm going to try to work this into my sampling structure.
This is dope, nice change of perspective!
Knowledge is the key! thanks Marlow
Thank you for this 🙏🏼
Great to see your sharing the art of sampling.
Respect
Great tip, thanks for sharing this technique. I can really see this working, especially for secondary/next layer samples
You made that look so easy in the end! Keep up this content. It's a gold mine my friend.
Cool way to look at it!
Great technique and great idea! Something to try next time!
Such a simple, yet effective technique 🙌
Gonna use that technique from now on! thx for sharing 🙏💯
Best way to adding samples to your drums I ever heard! Love this tecnique! Thanks for sharing!
Still bangin’ “Come Home”
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thank you Marlow, I am very motivated with this, I am going to put it into practice. ♥♥
Yooooooooo this is crazy been trying to really elevate my sampling game been studying micro chopping too thanks for this man about to make some beats today
Such Gems 💎🙌
Nice video Marlow. Good vibes. Love that chill music
Great technique! Ty
Thanks for sharing this man!! Never thought on using the filter straight away🙏🙏
Great video...love this technique!
Your choices are always top notch. I am not a beat maker but learn so much from your content. Thanks!
Dope Dope Dope! This opened my eyes to some new a technique that’s classic but I already love from the past.
Brilliant. Never occurred to me to filter first.
Or just listen to the records with the filter on
great tips as always brother
This is an inspiring technique, thanks for this.
Real nice tip man...very powerful technique. Thanks!
It's great to know how these old techniques started and how to implement them today. Awesome vid bro!! Much ❤️ Marlow!!
Genius technique!! Never even thought of doing it this way
Awesome this will really help me out
You just opened my eyes man. Thanks-big time!
Many thanks 🙏🏻 This technique is very interesting
Great video. I love learning things that I always knew how to do but never thought of!
Grande Marlow!! Sempre un fiume di ispirazione !!!! Rock on !! :)
Thank you 🙏
Welcome! ✌🏼
Excellent teach, thank you 🙏🏾
Glad it was helpful!
Perfect. .....your vids really help....
This is crazy cool, I've never even thought of trying this. Def gonna test it out next time
I'm glad I came across your page you real changed my thinking of sampling technique, great video and vibe.
🙏🏼
Dope vid and definitely opened my mind to something new
Great video! Thank you ❤ Expression!
Live mixing, tight work!!! We call it groove catching
Mate this is something I have never considered when finding samples. Im gonna run Tracklib through this. So good.
This is dope I gotta try this. Thank you sir
Great Video, and nice technique, will try that later :)
I'm new to beat making and sampling (about 2 years in) and this video is SUPER helpful good looking out Marlow 👍 I love to see beat makers with more experience pass knowledge down to youngsters like myself who are trying to soak up as much as possible 🙌
Thank you for sharing
Muito bom, mano!!! Agradeço pelo conhecimento passado!!!
thank you 4 your service, sir
Genius technique !!!!
Your knowledge and insight never disappoints
🙏🏽
This wild…. Use to do this a long time ago. Thanks for the reminder .. respect!
Bro you took me back. I did this for my MPC60/S950 set up. I would just do this on my 15 band Sansui eq. Man you reminded me of this and I’m gonna do it again. Salute.
You continue to inspire me man. Great video:)
🙏🏼
Ear training for Vinyl heads... Dope tutorial bruh... your style speaks music appreciation, emphasis on sampling...
So Sick Love it😊
Thanks, such a useful method
I've been using this technique sometimes and even it's a Sound/Noise that is a second long and fits it can give the beat a whole new depth. Should use this technique more often. Great video, Marlow!
Marlow!
You are keeping it real.
Very nice tip!
you are an amazing teacher thank you for keeping the craft alive
🙏🏼
My dude got that SunRa record. I got a decent collection of SunRa. PEACE my man, dope video. Just watching this for the 1st time and I got to say, I LOVE sampling with the mids and highs boosted and I usually kill the LOW end so I can use my own bass wit the crispy mid-high filtered sample. It's how I sampled for years when I was rocking my SP12 years back. Somehow the limitations of the older machines produce the most flavor when used right. Keep on, I love your videos.
I'm also getting deep into Sun Ra, just got 4 new records from him recently. Gonna listen to one now and try to catch some cuts, should be easy. ✌🏼
@@mpchead For experienced ears it should be FUN to sample some SunRa, but for the inexperienced I feel like he is so all over the place and really abstract with the compositions. It's either pure brilliance, or sounds like a high school band on acid HAHA! I love it.
Hey man, absolutely LOVE your channel. Found this video yesterday and it totally changed my entire sample workflow and immediately fit a TON of new pieces into tracks that I'd been struggling with. Thank you so much, keep putting out the great content. PS more with the rytm mk2 plz :).
Glad to hear bro ✌🏼
Really amazing technique to sampling and great tips in the 90's i used to use a guitar pedal as a sampler then later purchase a Gemini sampler which I currently have put up with my records and turntables and mixer I don't really sample anymore. Sampling has really come a long way it has become an art form. 🎧Like#73
Great video mate
