Rediscovering Cassette Tapes with MPC Sampling | In Tune Ep.09

[@Freight_Up_Trucker]

This made me feel old because I walked to school with a tape player on my hip listening to my music. LOL!

[@s0litune]

Hahah glad I can bring back memories

[@jaymac8421]

That’s pretty dope, using samples from cassettes on a Walkman from the ancient 1900’s.

Wait until you get fed up with the hiss, the crosstalk and the pinch roller eats your tape right in the middle of your favorite song.

I sampled using a cassette adapter playing off Spotify to test it out . Works fine !

[@s0litune]

Good video

[@s0litune]

Thanks for watching brotha! 🙏🏽

You could record out of the headphone output, then you would get the warmth of the tape itself, without losing all your bass frequencies like the built in speaker.

[@s0litune]

I connected the RCA cables into the Headphone output to grab the sample. I hope I made that clear in the video. Thanks for watching by the way 🙏🏽

[@joeboo9801]

​@@s0lituneyou should also buy a few blank tapes and re-record onto a blank tape then record back into the MPC

[@s0litune]

@ that’s sounds dope! Thanks man I’m definitely doing that next time

[@ishigirihayato]

​@@s0lituneoops didn't catch that, anyway cool concept, nice work!

[@s0litune]

@ thank you 🙏🏽

[@Maulleygxxx]

The sound quality not being the best makes it THE BEST! lol

[@s0litune]

Right? There’s something about that raw, gritty sound that just can’t be replicated digitally! Glad you’re feeling the vibe! Thanks for tuning in 🫡

[@resleone6609]

In 2024, one of the main reasons to sample from cassette is due to its Lo-Fi quality.

[@s0litune]

Definitely! Those textures are amazing man!

[@OM19_MO79]

An advice from someone who *suffered* compact cassettes because there was no other option: If all of you want to still love cassettes up to your 50s, don’t listen to them more than twice a week.

[@s0litune]

Thanks for the advice 👊

[@sooperheep]

Cassette is god

[@s0litune]

Man!! You’re not lying!! Love them!

[@sooperheep]

@@s0litune In case its interesting, I’ll share a tip from a vid on the KO2 I saw recently for getting low fi samples. The guy would sample really pitched up or sped up sounds and then drop them down a few octaves and they were really gritty and lo fi but beautiful. Especially just a synth note recorded in the upper octaves and pitched down then played as a chord just sounded amazing. Works great for loops as well, kind of mimicking the old SP1200 technique.

[@s0litune]

@@sooperheep thanks man!! I’m a definitely look into that now! Appreciate you 🙏🏽

[@sooperheep]

@@s0litune same to you, thanks for the video👊
