Thank you man, glad you got something out of the video 👌🏽

[@boglemeister]

I want to second that! No fluff and straight up. Only really the most useful functions

[@kevinfair2364]

Big facts my guy

[@Mk47_buoy]

It's true💯 And I'm only 3:48 into the video... I already know alot Just need to get used to the shortcuts tho

[@sennozenmusic]

Really though. I’ve been using Slicex for as long as I’ve had FL and I prefer it over Edison almost every time, but not one video on KZbin has as this much articulation and understanding that I don’t want to just know how to do something, I need to know what and why I’m doing something a certain way. I don’t really subscribe to any tutorial channels, but I definitely subscribed to this one. Saw you’re comment at the top and I was like, “Damn, I feel that.” 🤟🏼💯

[@christermini2216]

When checking the length of a note in the piano roll, you can double click on the note. The duration is shown there and also editable directly. No need to move the note in the piano roll or measure using the playmarker.

[@greenthumb14]

This doesn’t change the length of the sample dude

[@snaggletooth1881]

Dude thank you so much. For years I have been frustrated trying to figure out how to time stretch each chop. I always saw that there was an option to do so, but my frustration always got the best of me. Thanks man, game changer for me. 👊

This video is literally a sample-saver. Thank you so much for making this.

[@AA-lq5pu]

Your videos are extremely helpful, step by step and thorough. So refreshing!

[@IgneusBeats]

Ok, this thing cleared A LOT for me. I was breaking my mind with that master pitch thing, pissed me off much because it changes time also.. thanks!!

[@NavieD]

Yeah SliceX can be really irritating with it's time/pitch shifting

[@dirtymoneybp2511]

dude you gave us more sauce in this 12 min video than a bunch of other tutorials ive seen that are 20 min long to tell us how to do 4 main things YOU ARE A GODSEND

[@OhShootKid]

For anyone wondering btw, might be obvious, but you can ctrl c, ctrl v a piece you've already chopped into another section with the same method he uses to replace a section of a sample, if you wanted to process the same sound on different inserts or cut it differently :)

@@red0ctane19 I've been wondering about the masterclass myself.. lol might look into it after my baby boy comes into the world 🌎 this December. Good luck with the choppin!

[@red0ctane19]

@@MvnStn I meant this masterclass 😝 But as far as his course, it's well worth it imo! Been in it since the beginning and have progressed so much so quickly. Super active discord. Beat challenges every 2 weeks to push us to try new things and understand new concepts we never would have attempted. I connect really well to his teaching style so was a no brainer for me for sure. If I revisit these old vids a ton you bet I'm hitting those course sections up nonstop as I progress. Lol. Still learning with each watch. Not tryna sound like a salesman, though. Just trying to be honest and support and help others. 😝 Congrats on your upcoming child. That's dope! Good luck choppin too my friend! Stay safe. 🙏

@@red0ctane19 well IF you were a salesman, you woulda sold me! haha But yea, totally agrred on the same points you made. Navie just has a knack for gettin it through my head haha and thanks, im super hyped! Gonna have me a legacy to leave behind! Cheers!

[@red0ctane19]

@@MvnStn 🤣🤣 Maybe I needa ask for some commission! Lol. But for real. Went through so many other people before legit learning like I do from Navie. Definitely learned a few super basics from others, but that was more just workflow stuff and shortcuts. Lol. But that's legit! Can't even imagine having a legacy to leave behind. Keep going back and forth. Still have time, though. 😅 Best of luck! Will be dope!

[@mohaumoloto5253]

I always use Slicex but didn't know half these tips, I used to dread sending 10+ chops or whatever to a cut group manually I didn't know you could do it that easily, thank you

Brooooo thank you so much for showing how to asign all samples at once to Cut 1. I have been asigning each slice to cut 1 , ONE BY ONE. Now you can imagine how painful it can be doing that every time you are chopping samples to play it mpc style

[@JamilLeslie]

The Start Function Knobs can also be used to make a more Precise de-click by moving the start point away from the clicks. I’ve had to use this function more often than declick out/in regions, because of the inability to actually take away the clicks at times.

[@MaliceDaModeler]

Navie if you had a class offered, I would definitely pay to take it. You are well-spoken, and your knowledge depth is evident by how well you break down the complex stuff so beginners get it first shot!

Great video! There is one thing that bothers me though - let's say I stretch my chops to a certain length (in miliseconds) using the alt+t, but if I later decide to change my BPM I would have to re-stretch my chops again (is that correct?). Can I stretch the chops in a way that will respect the grid itself and adjust to the correct lenght when I change the BPM?
