What Is a Sampler and How Does It Work?

[@sweetwater]

Since the 1980s, samplers have been integral to development of electronic music, hip-hop, and pop. Now that you know how samplers work, what would you sample first? Let us know in the comments, and check out Sweetwater’s DJ equipment demos here 👉 kzbin.info/aero/PLlczpwSXEOyYu-FR8wZ3DLc88xCK8VQQr

For someone WHO DOESN’T know anything about the engineering or creating aspects behind making music, I think this was helpful. It gives me a starting point. I don’t think this video was intended for those who already knows a little something about Samplers. Great job. I look forward to seeing more videos in the future.

A demonstration of how to create a sample & apply it in a recording would be much better.

[@joshknight1620]

Or even just a demo of it in action at the end.

I think that wasn't the goal here. This was defining a higher level view of sampling. Showing you without defining it might confuse you.

Can we got one on time stretching?

[@scasey1960]

No example?

[@spirittravels.]

Can you use a sampler to re edit a track, to select only the best portions you want?, and can you do that with each upcoming next track to create a "megamix"?

[@MrRickPanick]

Most folks know what a sampler is… oh, myself, I would like to see a demonstration of how it is used in the real world. This video told me nothing.

I first introduced to this instrument through Linkin Park DJ Joe Hahn and the samples are 🤘.
