its look better than the sampler of Maschine, and more fast (momentum)

Hey bro! This is RIGHT ON TIME!! I do a lot of chopping-up of melodic/instrumental sample loops and I see where these are gonna be VERY handy in streamlining my creative workflow. Thanks!!!

[@AveMcree]

Any time

Idk why this video didn't pop up on my feed 2 days ago. Thanks for the info as always.

Oh snap I’ve been looking for a vst to layer my own shots thank you so much for everything you do 🔥🔥🔥

[@lanirus7515]

Thank you sooo much for showing the automap function! ive been desperately looking for the answer on how to map the pads in studio which no ones talking about it at all! thanks a ton super small but insanely helpful!

[@boimesa8190]

TX16WX = SO underrated :O

[@HOLLASOUNDS]

Great demonstration Ave, Definitely worth checking out a few of these.

[@teddybearasaurus]

The face you made listening to bread slicer was priceless 😂🙏🏽

[@AveMcree]

[@DisInfoWars]

I remember poise from way back, I found that plugin really useful alongside battery. It does a few things well and the round robin feature is what I used the most. Maybe there's better free ones but that was my go to

[@AveMcree]

If it was for the Maschine expansion compatibility. I wouldn't use Battery at all. Poise is a billion times easier to use.

[@TeksonikAudio]

@@AveMcree Why not just use FL Studio's FPC plugin?

[@baltimega]

@@TeksonikAudio poise is dope for when you're not using fl studio. I use it in reaper mostly.

[@dtfluker1617]

A.V.E. Man Thanks. Your videos inspire!!

[@MattmanAZ09]

Windows only but Shortcircuit 1.1.2 is still king in my book. You can layer/chop/ filter/pitch until your cpu hits a wall. CPU friendly too. 32bit so it needs bridged. Shortcircuit 2 was open sourced and is being developed by the same people who are working on the Surge vst synthesizer.

[@colbyisart]

You and pain are my personal favorites. Thank you both for all you do. 💯✌🏼💜🏴‍☠️

[@AveMcree]

My pleasure

[@im2cxe4u]

Poise use to be my goto drum sampler. Fully featured yet simple and not bloated.

[@AveMcree]

indeed

[@marknhopgood]

Thank you for the recommendation. Have enjoyed using the T Pain toplines.

[@petergedd9330]

Thank you, some great samplers here for free, just what I've been looking for, Subbed

[@reoscorpio]

Bro' please tell me.. what was the sound, what plug did it come from.. you mentioned it here 7:38 ..you said it came from a library.. but i want to make sure i got it right

[@rubengarcia-ks1fc]

Why in momentum in every video they do a cut when they drag the samples y tey to do it in my pc bur samples nsver go inside this plugin only sum extra small one shots, do you know whay i got this problem?

[@oliverlabani7511]

you are a jewel my brother most respect from South Africa

[@ELLIOT8209]

Limpopo

[@HewittH]

Sitala is free and so good for drums. It's smart as hell, too. I have dozens of drum VSTs and I always wind up going back to Sitala because everything I need is just right there.

[@AveMcree]

I should of added that to the list

[@TheLboogie330]

Is it still free

[@HewittH]

@@TheLboogie330 no. Since I made that comment they updated to V2 and it is no longer free. Still totally worth it, though!

[@LeoXonix]

Sitala and Speedrun Lite are two great free drum machine plugins.

[@kisho2679]

which ones are recommended for recording, live looping and mangling during performance?

[@TheLboogie330]

All

[@E_-_-]

Used poise for ages! Good stuff

[@sftraxx]

Used to fw poise all the time. (I still have my kits) Unfortunately it stopped loading in Cubase so I retired it...

[@sftraxx]

Grace too. Cubase's in house sampler replaced that.

[@morphinebeats]

2:06 - This takes me back ... 5:00 - Can hear Nas Escobar over this... like an Urban version of "The World Is Yours" "A thief's theme, play me at night, they won't act right, The fiend of hip hop has got me stuck like a cr*ck pipe."

[@eigos]

Bruh, it's through your video that I found the Poise sampler VST plugin, it's absolutely ridiculous - so good, that I'm struggling to find something similar (and for free...). The problem is, it works flawlessly in older versions of my VST host (Carla), but since 2.5.5, that sampler no longer loads in the host... it's old by this point and isn't actively patched/maintained, so longevity is gonna be an issue. I'm using it with older versions of Carla without a hitch, but here comes the question - which sampler comes close to Poise in terms of functions? Any suggestions?

[@rafaelhoyos]

Vital y Sitala

[@Dunbar0740]

Use a wrapper plugin to load Poise. I use JBridge to load ancient VSTs in modern hosts.

[@gilldanier4129]

Thank you. Very useful. Momentum looks good. Subbed.

[@towerrunner4675]

Thx for Bread Slicer. Useful for my DNB attempts. I'm still learning MPC software, so I can't suggest sampling plugins.

[@AveMcree]

You got the best sampler in the biz. So I understand 😂

[@towerrunner4675]

@@AveMcree Good to know☺. You mentioned DNB usability. Break beat tutorials are welcome.

How do you download momentum? I tried to download it but when I clicked on download for pc it just came out as a browser option on my desktop.

Dat beat was funky

[@jimshannononsounds]

I've had Momentum for quite a while now. It's not bad. I'm DL TX16 as a VST now, thanks.

[@AveMcree]

yeah it's awesome

[@jimshannononsounds]

@@AveMcree Maybe the answer is further along in the comments but I haven't (yet) found a way to get the ARP to work either. Also, I haven't found a latch or hold button. Most like in the Pro version

[@erectejohnson5098]

yo i got an issue with momentum it wont let me drag in audio files theres a x icon on my mouse when i try to drag it in... any help?

[@AlexaDigitalMedia]

Momentum has been crashing Cubase 12 since the first version of Momentum up to the current version. Also crashed prior Cubase versions. BFA is aware of it, but still hasn't come up with a fix. From what I've been able to do with it, it seems like a good tool. But I haven't been able to finish anything with it due to the crashes. I'll keep checking up on the updates but I'm not holding my breath.

[@Antweezy]

can you automate the adsr in poise?

[@pinkbuddha_samplepackreviews]

yo brother how are you I"m thinking about getting fl studio but how do you brighten the color because I don't like the dark look can barely see at my age lol

[@docnova]

So I just bought Serato, after seeing a bunch of vids praising it. I got it instead of getting XO on sale for 80. The only samplers I had were the stock FL stuff and CR8. Did I mess up? Is Serato over hyped?

[@AveMcree]

Nah Serato sample was good back in 2016. Then it came out later. So don’t feel bad.

[@efe056]

God bless you bro❤

[@JdjdbNdjdb]

does anyone know of a sampler vst that uses mp3? all these sample packs are vst but i cant find a sampler that plays them its reaaaaly stupid

[@derfred9571]

I donwloaded poise. installed it into my vst directory, but my fl studio doesnt recognizee it. it doesnt show up. any tips? cant get it to run, thats frustrating. My experience with vst plugins is so weird, every indie vst plugin installs different, can anyone help me? i dont get it

[@NocturnoenlasSombras]

I got the same problem, and after searching diff alternatives all day I actually found out that the "64 bit" installer its actually 32. I use Soundbridge and it was recognizing the plugin but it could not open it, later I tried in LMMS and it worked fine! Its sad bc you cant even contact the site and tell them to release an actual 64 bit installer.

[@Chriswoodworker]

Great video

[@kingcheflos602]

Thank you my brother I really appreciate these gems 💎 💎💎💎💎

im just wondering whats the best 1-shot sampler. the sampler that changes tone naturally, not sounding like computer. i though soundpaint was coming up with something new. but idk.

Well all samplers are digital

@@AveMcree Sorry brother but poise is a toy compared to the FPC. I have both installed and have for a long time. The FPC gets used in every project while Poise never gets called up. I don't think Poise is even supported any longer.

ezSampler the only mp3 sampler I know and it decent but someone should make another one to use mp3 you just need LAME exe encoder I just made a track on FLStudio using it sampling a vintage 70s record the result came out pretty triphop so I recommended this VSTi but I'm going to look for another I think HighLife is very old classic

[@AveMcree]

Thanks for the info

[@5iKing]

You can score a number of free programs that’ll convert .mp3 to .wav ….. not sure if you’re deliberately avoiding that route for potential loss of the samples quality & integrity…. I been out the game for like 16 years… had a Jedi status workflow on reason 2.5….sampled everything from Percy Sledge & Benny King to System of a Down, fuckin Madonna’s crazy ass, the Beatles, Star Wars imperial march off original wax… was cranking them out.. just grabbed an m-audio oxygen 49… wish I got a mini pro tbh… & scored Ableton, MPC Beats & Reason 12…. My fuckin brain hurts… bout to re-install reason 2.5 lol smh…. But I never noticed any significant loss of quality using software for conversion… I literally just converted the whole “greatest hits” from the doors & been Choppin up that the past few days

[@Noiserockerofny]

@@5iKing i like wavs a lot real talk but the conversion rate and time it takes to use an mp3 is mad faster then ripping a wave but to contrary why i do is ease of having something to sample quick and i also love the 320 to 192 quality of an mp3 cuz it very much downsampling but anyway wav or mp3 just let all sample and highlife or bliss from discodsp is are very great for the use of mp3 etc formats ty and have a blessed life sampling becuz sampling can and nvr should ever be dead = the art of hip hop and all forms of music electropop/electronica/etc becuz are we not all under the influence of all artists none are original and will never be done rant!
