Thank you I needed this for 3 years!

[@aomidk2755]

Mate, you are awesome. Great review! Thank you.

[@loganmoore7129]

You could do a sample of saying "harder better faster stronger" with it lol

[@CherylM0stert]

THANK YOU! Been looking for this. Your videos help a LOT to figure out the RC-505. Keep it up! :)

[@davidladen7326]

Thanks once again!

[@kokerbeatbox]

Very Helpful! Thank You!

[@SgtJesseDowning]

Enjoyed your tutorial and beat. Thank you.

[@gianniselvaggi]

Nice one!

[@thevvolf9836]

Great video man, and you have an infectious attitude. Thanks for the tips and good vibes! :)

[@adfletch7687]

It’s a stronger and cleaner sound if you use your midi as the input carrier but perfect video again thanks 🙏

[@DFTBAndy]

Cool, I haven't tried that because I don't have any midi devices 🙈 But I'll try if i get the chance! Thanks for the info 👍

[@RandyJism]

A UK ?w 7gv czafu

[@ClaesWegener]

Ad Fletch. How? You can only select the carrier to be tracks 1-5 ... not MIDI

[@adfletch7687]

@@ClaesWegener I have an Akai mk2 mini plugged in! Make the vocoder input on track 1 with the mini, then sing on channel 2 , the midi is clearer for the vocoder. Txt back if you don’t understand 🙌🏻

[@MilanLD]

@@adfletch7687 so you set track 1 as the carrier, then record a note (or a melody?) with your mk2 on track 1, right?

[@goodkat7853]

Dude your awesome....oh and super talented keep it up.....ty for the tuts

[@lodve.musique]

great job !!!

[@DFTBAndy]

Thanks!!

[@gianandrealuise7632]

Grazie mille :) Ho appena iniziato a suonare e il tuo video è stato illuminante!

[@Pauluz_The_Web_Gnome]

Maybe you can use a plop cap....for the B, P's!

[@dawidwenderski9097]

You are super cool guy! Thanks again for content :-)

[@aidandevoy7875]

thanks legend

[@reinhardwolf2855]

Cool, vielen Dank 🤩 und ja 👍🏻 mod sens ist ja eine geniale Sache 😉 habe noch den ziemlich analogen Vocoder von mam, steht hinten drauf „ made in Bavaria“ 🌺 wenn man über Boxen spielt kann man da ganz derbe Feedbacks kriegen.

[@ruscular3d]

I have the RC 202 and it also has the vocoder. I have wonder how to use it! Now how to use it with only 2 tracks? I was hoping to use it on just the one track.

[@billychan4633]

Dear Andy, I have been watching your tutorials for quite some time now. I recently got a second-hand loopstation, track 4 and 5 sliders are not turning down properly when I slide down. Did you have a problem like that or can it be fixed by cleaning thoroughly ?

[@liesbetleroy]

Great video... can you prepare harmonics beforehand and then put them in a track? How do you put things from your memory in yourtrack?

[@DFTBAndy]

What do you mean when you say "from your memory"? And yes, you can prepare that beforehand, you can save and load ;) I see i need to make a basics video 🙈

[@liesbetleroy]

@@DFTBAndy that’s what I mean 😉 Oooh yes please, a basics video is highly needed 😂😂😂

[@TenisDimants]

Catchy melody at the end! Great tutorial, thank you. Was trying to figure out why it doesnt affect my voice when tried to record with it first loop.

[@finnleyuriah5833]

i realize I am kind of randomly asking but does anyone know of a good site to watch newly released tv shows online?

[@hezekiahturner5939]

@Finnley Uriah Flixportal xD

[@finnleyuriah5833]

@Hezekiah Turner Thanks, I went there and it seems like a nice service =) I appreciate it !

[@hezekiahturner5939]

@Finnley Uriah Happy to help xD

[@cathyny83]

Hi since there's two row of abc knob left and right, is that each time you press only can assigned to one track for prerecorded and all track for performance despite one track is edited

[@DFTBAndy]

So the left a,b,c knobs are for input effects and the right for track effects. You can only apply track fx to all affected tracks at once.. I'm not sure I understand your question...

[@cathyny83]

@@DFTBAndy do you mean affected tracks as edited track herr

[@claudialopez7326]

hey! great video...so..i only can use the vocoder track as a carrier, not as an input fx?

[@girlinagale]

You need a loop on the RC to act as the target track. Then you can use vocoder as an input fx.

[@TheHammockProduction]

how do you get multiple input effects and track effects channels at once? whenever i try to use multiple they replace the previous one.

[@DFTBAndy]

It's a setting you need to enable ;)

[@TheHammockProduction]

@@DFTBAndy where do i find this setting?

[@DFTBAndy]

@@TheHammockProduction it could be that you have an old firmware.. then you need to upgrade to v2 first...

[@80slimshadys]

you have to enable multi fx

[@sethburnsman]

“It will sound like this” Then you instantly change what’s playing and instantly start talking over the sound you just asked us to listen to… like… I have no clue what it sounds like during that part of your video because you didn’t let us listen. (5:30) Edit: came back to say the rest of the video is 10/10. Thanks!

[@marcosgarcianorris]

Now that's a complicated FX! I think I will return to your video once I am more familiar with all the rest of the 505...one FX too far at the moment.

LOOPSTATION

[@guidobrunellijr.3]

Yea some of us are late too the game, let alone know what the hell the game is ?

[@DFTBAndy]

Gawd dmn. I lost the game -.-

[@subtitles1492]

less gesticulating and more research, then you’ll be fine :-)

[@ned_frankly]

At&t created the vocoder to compress speech for transmission over crappy copper lines. It was not for artificial speech.

[@DFTBAndy]

Yes, did I not say that? :P

[@thorstenmichels5662]

I know it is so common, but it is as wrong and annoying as it is common to speak and hushshshshl and plopp directly into the mic. Put a little bit to the side or below of your mouth and then it is much nicer listening to you. And then it will be more pleasent to listen to your great tips and tricks.

[@DFTBAndy]

I'll try to keep that in mind :)

[@username4eternity]

Not creative but he does create pointless content with misleading titles spoken in poor english! But hey, I watched all 23:55 seconds and no doubt about his sexy pretentiousness.

[@juan-topic6664]

go away. nobody wants you here.
