I couldn't agree more. It's so important to push through a track when you get stuck in the mud a bit. It's just as much about developing techniques to get yourself through those situations, as reinforcing your brain not to give up when things get frustrating or challenging. Even if someone can write an amazing track in an hour on guitar, we often forget the years and years of daily practice and discipline it too to develop that ability. ✌

I have been listening to this music for a long time but have only recently started producing it. I've worked with ableton and logic for years (mainly making house and synthwave) and would often find myself listening to old jungle tracks and thinking about "how I would do it/what a good workflow would look like" in either of those DAWs and the answers was always some combination of IDK + lots of layering and automation.Yesterday, I watched this video and your "Amen Breaks: The Secret to it All" video, downloaded a demo of renoise, and started messing around with it and rather enjoyed it. Today, I was driving to my mom's house to take her to lunch and I was listening to Hard Drive's Original Rude Boy Tune and thinking about the way you were doing drum replacement and effects (plus the whole tracker work flow) with renoise and it all kind of clicked. Thank you so much.

Thanks for the comment Stephen! I'm so happy I've inspired you to pick up Renoise. I also came over from Logic X but am obsessed now i've got into Renoise. For drums especially its really incredible. All those hit replacement tricks and Sample Commands make working with breaks super fun. Its also amazingly creative. Such a great tool to use on its own or even combine with the DAWs you already know really well. :)✌️🥷

Thanks so much for the comment! I actually did something quite similar and started on Logic before eventually finding my way to trackers. I think in some ways it helps to be able to visualise things in a timeline based DAW like FL before you step into Renoise. All these techniques can of course be applied in other DAWs but there's something about the tracker workflow that makes them so fun and easy to apply here. Merry Christmas mate :) 🎄

Great vids In addtion to the mono long gated break option you could still slice to phrase and do the following options create mutliple phrases/edits and: 1 Use the Zxx to trigger each phrase 2 Use the Sxx command to change the startpoint of the phrase (if you are using Dec instead of Hex for Line Numbering some things may not seem logical e.g S10 in the main pattern = line 16 in phrase) 3 Use Keymap in Phrase Editor and then you can replicate the old school way e.g. "C-400" = Phrase 01 , "C#300" Phrase 02 and so on Using Option 3 allows you to port the break into other DAWs via Redux

Okay, the break swapping technique is awesome! There's so much stuff inside Renoise that I still haven't gotten around to using. Except phrases, I've definitely tried to use phrases and I must be missing the point. The way you've used them here is cool, but otherwise they seem kind of not worth the trouble. I feel like they were just pasted into the full version of Renoise after they were made for Redux.

Thanks mate. Lots of fun to be had with break swapping in Renoise! I largely agree about phrases but I do find cool ways to use them every now and again. You can actually send program messages to Renoise to change the current phrase. This can lead to loads more phrase swapping techniques. I also love using them to create FXs. Even still. I work almost entirely in the pattern editor. Mainly because the tools work in there and you can also step automate plugins. Happy New Years!

Hey MrZenshphere, nice to hear from you mate. Yea that technique is a lot of fun. You can get amazing results for other genres as well pitching down Hip-Hop breaks etc. So much potential I'm sure you'll dive right into! Adding FXs per slice in the instruments tab can get super crazy. This technique actually works amazingly for chopping records as well. J Dilla used to do this a bit. If you chop directly on the kick and snares of a 4x4 beat, you can start to pitch around the slices but as the kick/snare are always at the start of the chops, they stay in time with your own drums!✌

@@groovining Thanks for the quick answer. At 2:58 you show how to do the trick with slices to phrase. I use this on a loop that is repitched with beatsync, but when I slice the sample to the phrase the slices play at the original speed. To fix this I had to click the "T" to copy the beatsync options to the transpose, then it works, but only by pitching the sample. It's important to do this before placing the slices. Is there a way to "freeze" or resample on the fly inside renoise? Is it possible to assign the pitch macro to a "Repitch" algorithm? With your technique it changes the speed of the samples, too right? Pitching it really high makes more compressed samples pretty choppy and the decay macro is not coupled to the pitch, which influences the playback length. I found mapping pitch from -1 to 1 and decay from 304ms to 64ms at the same time worked pretty good to mitigate this problem on my break that I pitched to 140BPM. Thanks very much for your channel, it's been a really great resource for me :)
@groovining
9 ай бұрын
If you've already sliced the break and then hit beatsync only the top reference file is transposed. What you need to do is hit 'T' and then turn off beatsync. Then copy the transpose and finetune values to all of the slices of the break. To resample on the fly in Renoise right-click in the pattern editor - Track - Render to sample. I've mapped this to a hotkey. The Gate To Tempo technique we're talking about here is actually really cool as you don't need to repitch the break to get it to warp to your tempo. It cuts off the ends of the hits to make them fit. What's even cooler is you can assign a macro to pitch and decay and play with them both live. You can pitch the break +/- or change your BPM and the break will still fit perfectly. This allows you to choose whether you want your break at its original pitch or sped up without having to time-stretch it. You correct that when you pitch up samples they also speed up. This in turn pushes their frequencies higher and makes them more snappy in the case of drums. The choppiness does not actually come from compression. It's due to the decay of the samples not being long enough. The hits have been sped up so much that there is now silence in between the hits. :) Glad you're enjoying the channel! 😊✌ @@MultiMeschi
