Learn How To Sample in 13 Mins | Tutorial for FL Studio

[@NavieD]

Whats your opinion on looping? Is it lazy? Or is it just as valid as chopping?

[@alexunder_ground]

I don't think looping is lazy, but easier to start with.

[@lilghob]

In emo rap is pretty common to just loop da shit i think, like guitars mostly, i like that authentic vibe but its lil bit scary for me to loop samples like that because of clearance issues, lol

[@slaxxer113]

Depends on how it is used. Mac Miller was a sampling god while some people just take a loop and drop some drums on top of it. It can help to get out of a beatblock though

[@txddyfarquh69]

I don't like to loop but when beatblock arises?...I turn to looping lol up until I can start building melodies around the loop then I delete it.

[@user-lt2rw5nr9s]

You already said chopping was where the creativity comes in. If everyone used the same sample, how would your's be different? Plus, I love the chop gods and if you saw how well they can flip samples, you'd probably want to emulate that.

[@fernandohafez6064]

Navie's hands in every single video be like: 👏🤲👐🤝

[@50CalBeats]

So glad to see someone making tutorials who puts a huge emphasis on subjectivity. Been going back through your videos and can easily say they've been exponentially more helpful than a majority of other FL tutorial makers for trap/hiphop, if only because you leave everything up to experimentation and don't try to force weird rules on your viewers. It also helps that your tips are genuinely unique and not on the "this was a cool a year ago and now I'm making a video on it just for the views even though everyone else has a similar video" bandwagon.

[@NavieD]

Dag thank you man! I definitely know what you mean. I try to avoid the "If you want to make X type of beat, use this sound, this synth, this preset". I moreso like to talk about fundamental principles and concepts

[@JONeal826]

Busy work who? This guy right here drops real gems!

[@Natepullup]

This was fantastic video to watch. As someone who can both “make beats from scratch” and make “sample based beats” fairly well, I thoroughly enjoyed the in-depth descriptions of small key elements like chopping so it sounds “musically correct” without technically being perfect, etc. Do more sample shit.

[@NavieD]

Thanks Nate! I love making sampling videos, but most them don't get good traction. I think people feel that it's not in vogue

[@vrce.]

@@NavieD make it. i really wanna learn.

You're welcome my friend!

Thanks Rage! Your kind words mean a lot to me :')

[@Deadend_Digital]

This video saved me so much time thank you! I could never solve the timing issue before.

[@NavieD]

Yeah it's a pesky issue for sure. Glad I am able to help!

[@LeMerch]

I've watched so many tutorial videos, some are great and some are hard to follow but the presenter is clearly very good. Yours are super easy to follow, perfectly paced and you really go into detail with an easy to understand method for viewers to grasp what you're explaining. Thank you!

[@abelshete521]

Dude I’ve been wasting SO much time chopping samples manually making each clip “unique as sample” and pitching and and stretching. Good fucking shit partner

[@NavieD]

Hahah dag that sounds time consuming and tedious my friend. Just use a sampler!

[@donsamokwan7958]

that's what I said.!!!!

[@24rival13]

As someone who makes sample based beats this is a game changer. Thank you Navie D.

[@NavieD]

I think the video I put out today will also be of interest to you!

[@24rival13]

@@NavieD Oh, ok

[@omgizu]

tbh i like to do what youve did with newtone by hand, but for some samples i think im gonna use that way !! thank you so much... i love ur energy !

[@stuartor3414]

This video is a game changer, I never knew that qunatize trick. Great tutorial, very well explained.

[@NavieD]

Thanks Stu! Yeah using Newtime can really help clean things up

[@scribblerjones]

First video I've seen about sampling in FL Studio - I've wanted to learn to make beats, but just now getting around to it. Sampling is something I've been really curious about - and this video gave me a lot to go on. I'd REALLY like to learn more about chopping. Hope you do a video on those chopping styles and techniques you mentioned, if you haven't already!

[@NavieD]

Awesome man, always happy to see people interested in sampling. I def do want to do that video on chopping techniques soon

[@jaketrotter8233]

That quantize trick though 👀 P.S. Thank you for not being so corny and gimmicky in your videos 😂

[@NavieD]

Hahah thank you. I don't like the idea of throwing in wacky sound effects and stuff, and want to focus on the learnings instead of gimmicks

[@timothyruben6621]

@@NavieD Facts your tutorials are always the ones I default to. You keep it engaging but never sacrifice the lesson for flashiness/laughs. Humor is on point though you got me rewinding and loling sometimes

[@danOpuz]

I learned how to make Beats much better in a few days just by watching your videos. Thank you bro.

[@roygitobu8640]

Who disliked this video, too many haters around! One of the best tuts on sampling, congrats!

[@808niel]

I like how you break it down step by step besides these other KZbinrs‼️

[@NavieD]

Thank you Niel! I try my best to be very clear with my explanations

[@JeromeKerr1]

ohh that quantization trick was what i missed

[@NavieD]

Yeah Newtime can really help you out. And you can use it to experiment in cool ways (as you will see in a video I plan on putting out later this month)

[@БахаЭкибаский-ж4ч]

Have never understood what Newtime did until now. Thanks.

[@MrSeattleshaun]

Yep same here. I have been dragging them manually in newtime, which is awesome, but Navie's trick is cleaner.

[@FoxxRyan]

I learn faster from your videos. Thank you. And out of the 50 sampling videos I’ve watched in the past two days, you were the only one to show us how to quantize the sample. I appreciate you.

[@KyleViewing]

I've watched plenty other producers talk about sampling but none and I mean none break down the topic the way you do and I appreciate that... So I am subbing👍🏼you a great teacher

[@NavieD]

Thank you Kyle! I love sampling and making videos on it. I am thinking about doing a vid where I show off a few different techniques when it comes to sampling

[@StayingAlive4Ever]

I really like how you show us step-by-step, cause some other Producers pull out some stuff and we don't even know where they clicked at 💀💩😐 but you show us where to click which is dope makes everything easier for us. 🔥🌍

[@Al-tx2si]

Bruh I learn a lot so much & you teach a lot more simple & clearly, really appreciate it! Now I have more confidence to use FL Studio. Also, just upgraded to FL Studio all plug-ins bundle edition definitely worth it & will use all the stock plug-ins. 🔥🔥

[@NavieD]

Ayyyyyy awesome man, glad I was able to instill that confidence in you. Now you can make some hot beats!

[@tapwaterstudios2559]

Thanks for another informative tutorial vid, Navie! I've never been that confident with my sampling, but have recently been trying more in the FL playlist. The first technique was very helpful. I wasn't aware about what NewTime really did, but it looks like it will help me out with problems I have been running into. Thanks again. You always put out quality content, man.

[@NavieD]

Thank you for watching! Glad to help. Sampling is truly a skill on it's own in my opinion. It can be really difficult when you start out, but you will get better the more you do it

[@slumpydumpy6994]

The one video that shows you how to really sample. Thank you, the other videos had my timing out of wack

[@parasomnia6905]

3 years later and this video still just saved my LIFE going chop by chop by chop. THANK YOU 🙏🏽

[@TheTonyTitan]

Dropping samples in Ableton's Sampler automatically warps the sample to the bpm, which eliminates the need for the extra work

[@NavieD]

Yeah I wish FL would do something like this

Thank you for making these videos, much appreciated. Just wanna make beats again like when i was in my 20´s and 30´s using 12 sec samplers, 4 tracks and later an MPC 500 and 1000. Is about 17 years ago...just can´t get a real hold of the software. That´s why i am so thankful just starting out again and see where the journey goes. God Bless you.

Looping is totally fine, every song is different and whatever sounds good, sounds good. You can chop and loop both at the same time to make sure you can mold the loop to your preference!

Consolidation is better sooner than later. If you want to change pitch or tempo, it can take a long time with a long sample.

[@zlatkobeatz]

Dude .. I really appreciate your content! Very calm explaination and straight to the point, I've seen some stuff related to sampling from Cxdy, Mai, Busyworksbeats ... but this method is much more efficient. I mean ... rather than chopping all the chords in the sample, making each one unique & making them fit like a dude who enjoys wasting his time ... you're just using 2 klicks within newtone. That's just crazy. Same goes for the wavecandy technique ... Thanks man!

I started sampling on an sp1200 which is super limited with only 10 seconds of sample time in order to sample you had to master the turntable first thats why a lot of legendary producers from the 90 's were D.J's first if you could rock a crowd you could make classics with tons of software and endless terabytes of sample time there are no more classics only viral songs
