Tutorial starts at 1:52 Includes: - audio sample - using warp markers to chop the audio - Slicing audio track to a MIDI track so slices are assigned to MIDI keys to then be performed on the MIDI controller - Performing the MIDI slices on the MIDI keyboard - Freezing the new audio track and warping - Working the groove of the track - Creating the groove

Video tutorial that outlines how to slice an existing music file or sample.  Covers:  - Cropping a large loop into a smaller loop - Slicing the cropped loop - Setting up the drum rack device - Working with MIDI clips - Grouping slices - Building chains - Creating a groove - Sound design

A tutorial for dividing an audio sample or track into slices so that each slice can be triggered via a MIDI signal.  Includes how to: - import the sample - identify the BPM - warp the sample to prepare it for slicing - slice the sample according to the warp markers

Text-based tutorial on using simpler to chop and slice beats to use in MIDI

Unfortunate name. Unfortunate gender references. The narration is a bit annoying. Good use of a visual layer to show the ableton over the physical activity, WOuld be better if he continued showing the physical along with ableton when he started playing the MPC controller. Nice job taking us through the process with explanation. cropping, warping, Explains why he thinks the sample is good and how to improve on it. Talks about creative process. Discusses slicing process. Don't think the proposed tempo is accurate based on playback and his counting.

Utilizing one of the vocal samples that comes with Logic, Shadetek slices each individual note of the sample, converts them into a sampler instrument. Shadetek delves into the ESX24 Instrument Editor, in order to re-pitch the vocal samples and make them playable across the keyboard. He then utilizes Logic's Pitch Correction plug-in (similar to Antares Auto-tune), which he uses to refine the pitch of the re-pitched notes. At the end of the tutorial, you should have a strong grasp of how to take a sample and play your own melody with it in Logic's EXS24 sampler."
