[@kdeeone]

that bassline you do near the end is sick!

[@Verysickbeats]

Haha, just messing around... thanks!

[@InspectaMorze]

yeah good tip, i normally use low end theory but i match my kick drums to the bass of the sample, tends to bounce a lil better

[@darthknowl9222]

@@Verysickbeats I just downloaded your bass kit, and I just used your technique for my MPC One.

[@shangobashi]

Great vid, as always. The last bassline you did (à la Slum Village) sparked a question in my mind: those bass sounds you had on your pads didn't come from the same sound, did they (aka 16 LVL)? Some pads seemed to finish differently when you pressed em' longer (Pad 8 didn't seem to have the same sound than Pads 9 to 16)...

[@Dhindsakarmon]

How do u make your bass be on tune with the sample I don't think u can do that in logic

[@Verysickbeats]

you have to mainly use your ears and change the pitch until it matches...kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6Cpqax-jNeKiNk

[@Dhindsakarmon]

i dont understand how to change the pitch in logic with the bass

[@jonobeatzz8023]

Damn u talk good, been looking for your words. Thanks

[@Verysickbeats]

thats the first time I've ever heard that one! LOL thanks and my pleasure

[@NIMMHATVRapBeats]

Hey Thx for the Video again, i Love your Videos! Since i have Seen alot of Keyboards You have, which one has the best Keys? I Need a quality midi Keyboard with 61 Keys but cant find one .. Need Keys like on the Emu xboards ..

[@Verysickbeats]

my pleasure, it all depends on how you want the feel of the keys...light weight, semi-weighted, heavy-weighted. i still love my rhodes the best even though its not a midi keyboard...the other ones i have are all light weight and personally i prefer semi weighted

[@NIMMHATVRapBeats]

don't know what my E-MU Xboard 25 has.. i think they are semi/heavy weighted.. i bought a Nektar Impact gx61 (because i needed 61 keys) but i can't play that thing!! the keys are so small and feel like plastic and there is like no weight behind it... anyways, thx for the reply J-filt!

[@vijayrules32]

what sample is that? and nice video, very helpful!

[@Verysickbeats]

I sampled myself on keys. glad 2 help

[@ray-mond9215]

how do I sample a type of bass from old records or mp3s and play whatever melody I want with it?

[@Verysickbeats]

hope this vid helps, this is my favorite way...kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqiZamZogJuVZ6s skip to 6:50

[@ConsciousFX]

Whats Up Filt.. Just copped your Bass sounds brother.. Hip Hop Artist gotta support one another.. I had a question though.. I'm on Maschine and was wanting to try to filter those bass sounds to get a bit more of a classic boom bap say MPC bass sound as oppose to them acoustic bass sounds.. Any advice of filter percentages or Fx I can use on maschine to get the sound you playing on this Vid? I been playing with trillian and can't seem to get that crisp of a bass sound as the ones I copped off you.. Dope sounds bro..

[@Verysickbeats]

Incredible Josh Thanks for the support. At this point i dont have maschine but i always say just tweak the filter/fx until u hear what u like.

[@theStepFamm]

maschine got filters bro. check ur modules

[@kwervo1206]

Change your settings to MP or SPL

[@cybermartian5627]

how are you making those kicks sound so full??

[@Verysickbeats]

layer and filter is the trick

[@asthereal1502]

How do we get that Dilla sounding bass. I know it’s some sort of sine wave but any idea how to get that sample or sound?

[@Verysickbeats]

filter ur bass, take all high end out

[@asthereal1502]

@@Verysickbeats yeah obviously but I was hoping you knew how to get that signature Dilla bass he uses in so many of his beats. its not a bass guitar... do I need an mac to make that sound? love ur channel ur the man btw much love from Australia

[@MSTAX1000]

im on this......stellar video

[@Verysickbeats]

MSTAX1000 lol, thanks fam

[@Schemez-16vhiphopbeatz]

actually a great tip..

[@Verysickbeats]

much thanks

[@blacklava4978]

how do you get those bass samples together into an instrument like that? Like I understand that you can just get a sample of a single note and get it to range in pitch but any time I try that the sample length is shortened as it gets higher which sounds whack. Im trying this in Logic rather than MPC but I'm guessing the sample principles will apply

[@blacklava4978]

ps, havent tried using your samples yet will check them out tho

[@Verysickbeats]

All i did in this video was assign some bass samples from #verysickbass to the pads, i didn't use 16 levels at all

[@blacklava4978]

***** Ah ok, so those samples are not necessarily arranged in any musical scale? They are just individual samples on each pad?

[@Verysickbeats]

Blacklava exactly

[@theStepFamm]

bless you brother,

[@Verysickbeats]

step fam thank u fam

[@imZenqii]

yo I don't really know how to structure a beat for it to sound good to me, should I just read deeper into song structure and go from there? i'm pretty new to making beats also

[@Verysickbeats]

imZenqii You could take the approach of just experimenting. To me song structures and rules just put u in a box so do u and have fun. Peace!
