The Ultimate Guide to Crafting an Amazing Beat: PO-33 Sampler Tutorial

Moschops gives a master class in cutting, scratching and sampling on his PO-33 Sampler. He talks through his process start to finish whilst recreating a recently finished beat.
I've been sat on this vid for a while as I wanted to make sure it got all the attention it deserved. But I now figure it's best to just get it out into the world. Sorry for the shots where I'm just sat there like a gooba, I was going to be in the video more but decided to cut myself out when Moschops did such a good job of hosting.
Massive thanks to Harry Moschops!

Love a good process vid. Thanks so much for putting this up lads. love it!

[@upbeatoffbeat5293]

This was extremely educational. Inspired and motivated me to work on making beats and sampling rather than always work on my scratching. Gotta get me a sampler but for now i'll practice with an app called Koala or if you can spare a few bucks, Andrew Huang made a nice app called Flip. These 2 apps got me sampling my friends discreetly. They hate that I do it, but when I play it back for them to show them what a badass sample I got from them they get a kick out of it and are onboard and want me to keep at it. That last bit about finishing a beat I really needed to hear. "Very important to stay productive is delete everything." I had to play it back a few times to wrap my head around it but I get it. Thanks you guys!
