In this video I go over 2 techniques for chopping samples within the Akai MPC Live II. The first one, is layer your chops with other drum one-shots or get creative and layer one-shots with other sounds or samples. The other technique I go over very quickly, so you might miss it. It's chopping by "region" and being a little more random, but the entire point is to make music and have fun doing it!
I hope you enjoyed this video. Be sure to subscribe, like and share if you found anything useful in this video or so it can reach people who can really use it. Also, if you want to me to make a video about something specific, let me know in the comments.
