Making a Smooth Beat from Scratch on the MPC ONE
In this video, I cook up a smooth, sample-based Hip Hop beat from scratch on the MPC ONE, taking you through the process in just 5 minutes—no talking, just raw production. Watch as I chop samples, apply FX processing, and fine tune the track using FX on the Drum Bus and layering sounds from plugins. The beat comes to life with a final performance on the SP-404MK2, adding that extra texture and vibe through the 303 Vinyl Sim Compression.
If you're into sampling, Boom Bap, MPC beat making, and Hip Hop production, this one’s for you.
