ERICK SERMON, I love you my brother. This is the greatest thing ever. It’s like you created the wheel, paper, the damn internet. I am so full of joy right now that’s the only way I can explain it. What a creationist you are. I know the BLACK MAN IS GOD now. Keep creating. Ultimate love and peace king ✊🏾👊🏾💪🏾🙏🏾
Raydar used to (and very likely is still a professor at Berklee College of Music) and taught DJing courses, hip hop production courses, and even a Hip Hop ensemble (featuring a band a la The Roots with vocalists, MC’s, and a DJ). Definitely check this man out, he’s is a musician and producer/audio engineer of the highest caliber and not “just a DJ/beat makers etc..” Grateful to have found this and looking forward to being able to learn from it to apply to my own projects.
I was TODAY years old when I discovered this video, and Tracklib. I’m sitting on 🔥 that I didn’t have this at my disposal. All stock and human elements. This is so dope, and opens another world for me that had pajamas on….sleep as ever! 😎
I am a new Tracklib user and working on my first tracklib sampling song. I used 4 seconds of some horn stabs from the song and 8 seconds from the bridge of the song. I am worried that it will be rejected when I send it back to Tracklib for approval so I can release the song. What guidance can you provide regarding how Tracklib reviews my song? How different does my song need to be? I mean, if you are sampling a hook, you kind-a-need want that hook. I do down pitch the samples and change the speed, but are they going to say "no" if I am using the most memorable portion of a tracklib song? Thanks to anyone that has an experience they are willing to share in getting tracklib to approve your song.
If you sample other music just for your own entertainment you are free to mess around and fair use is acceptable. Usually when you publish your music with samples, your publisher or label deals with all the royalty payments etc. It seems that Tracklib cuts the hustle and brings this closer to you if you dont have your own publisher or deals.
Only if you plan on releasing it. Don’t pay for it unless you plan on selling or releasing the music. And like the other guy said, if you have a publisher or label they’re the ones that need to pay for it you just need to tell them what samples you used
Don’t let that hold you back, there are SO many free resources online to download including DAWs and plugins and midi and audio loops and drum and instrument kits
a year later and alil more aware or the process I can never get my mpc one transfer of music into Logic Pro x with such clarity.. it’s usually very low at unity and chances may be when I come back to it (after saving it of course) some of the tracks are missing 🤦🏾♂️
What programs were you using, it looks like logic pro in the background, and serato in the foreground. As he's stepping through he's recording to the DAW logic pro to sample. Is that correct ?
some people are new bro and have zero clue how......this is actually brilliant. many of us learned on the fly. didn't know shit about pitch, tempo, transposing, all we knew was what sounded good and fit into a beat. we have come a long long way. Salute!
