Hi Guys,
I’ve only just got into sampling and would think that it would make a great tutorial.
i would love to see the whole process , from finding the a good sample to cutting it up ( maybe in recycle) then making a song from it.
i was thinking along the line of:
a bit of Daft Punk!
I think you’ve just gotta get creative, but yeah an example or two would make a cool tech tip. Hmm, how old does a song have to be for you to be able to use it like that without asking anyone? Or do you always have to? Not sure about the legal side of it, although I’m pretty sure you can use anything as long as you don’t sell it right?
Yep if you use something in your song you have to pay royalties .
but people like the prodigy use samples and completely transform them and not even the original artist can tell it was there work.
i cant believe no one else has even +1 this, surly someone would like a sampling tut( i hope) !!
+1 from me on this one.

I love sampling (as you can probably tell from the tracks lol)
but id def be down for hearing any more tips on how you guys do it. Love to learn more

I’d have never guessed :P:D:hehe:
i would love for someone to be able to teach me how to become a sampling master but i don’t think it’s possible. The reason why liam (The Prodigy) is so good has nothing to do with his sampling technique, after all most of what he does is just cut out, time-stretched or re-pitched. Liams brilliance comes from his keen ear and ability to pick great samples, he has great musical memory and loves create digging for those old obscure samples.
a tutorial on sampling would be great so i will +1 but i don’t think anyone can teach some one how to be passionate about what they do.

truth, well put. but i would like to just see more of a tut on time stretching and warping techniques in general.

This would be great, though the problem being SA can’t be seen as encouraging anyone to rip samples from other artists - sure we all do it from stealing a kick or what ever but its one of those things we all know it happens but we don’t publicise it
I am sure there could be a workaround

Well do it on the fact that if you use a copyrighted sample and try and get it signed you have to clear copyright (as alot of artists do. I’ve been sorting that for a few tunes recently)
For bootlegs its normally ok its just you making a version of a tune u like and not profiting (though some labels can still get mad)
Sampling random stuff like sounds from tv, old music etc can be fun and doesnt always carry a copyright issue
Well sure I sample alot from old sci fi/horror films and docs, also evangilical speeches which is sort of turning into an obsession these days - just worried the later won’t indoctrine me
…and if you don’t agree your all going to be damned in the firey pits of satans lair
I remember a friend of mine once sampled a basketball bouncing in a gym, it was one of the best sounding kick drums ive ever heard lol. The key is creativity and not getting caught lol.
I’d like something on this, but more like how Duck Sauce took that old thin sample from Boney M ( or the even older version that Boney M copied) and then thickened it out for their track.
Same with Daft Punk, in fact it doesn’t sound like samples to me, sounds more like they re-made the whole things from scratch, as it sounds very up to todays’ spec.
Either that or they are masters and really EQ/effected it all the way up to that standard?
Yes please exactly what I was thinking … A tut on this would be mostly appreciated
Regards,
Carlos.
