In this video, I go over on how i add bass lines on my sampled based production using the mpc live mk2 or the mpc on as both of those samplers work the same. in this mpc live tutorial we will break down some of the new tools in the mpc update 2.10 and match the key to the sample with our bass notes that I am using from the marco polo pad thai expantion pack. This will be useful for all of our boom bap hip hop beat making workflows.

Very good tutorial! I always go by ear and sometimes the bass just doesn't work with the sample, so when all else fails I just copy the melody and do a low pass filter, making that the bassline.

[Joebabylon]

You’re one of my fav MPC tutorial providers. Thank you again for this!

So if we want to use just one bass note sample (like in your older video) we can’t throw that sample in pad perform?

In other words, pad perform is only for vst’s?

I like the sub, it blended better with the beat. the other way was overpowering to me. Just my opinion.

[JSINATRA]

I have a hard time with base as well I’m going to try this and I hope it works I’ll let you know thank you for the info.🙏🏽 Oh I have an MPC live2 retro with the latest operating system so I trust it’ll work the same. I’m using it standalone without the computer would that be a problem?

[maddmarkmusic]

I would say it would have been better id you used a sample that has a wrong detection key from MPC. Then find/look for they key or go by the ear plus adding the bass.

[kirkstate]

🫡 I rarely use bass for simple fact I’m not a bass player 😔 if I do use a bass plugin I use the sub bass I can’t mess that up 😂

[JermaineLowden]

I usually put a low pass filter on the sample and use that as my bass

[ildarkinildarkin]

Sometimes MPC doesn't correctly detect key. Often sample name tells you what key it is in if the sample was downloaded say from Splice...

[OGSeason]

9 times out of 10 I’ll just duplicate my sample program and filter out the bass it the sample.

[elombrice]

How did you record your MPC Live 2 sound for the tutorial in standalone? Is it possible to stream the sound direct to something like OBS or Streamlab? Thanks 🙏

[rhezombra]

wow malo!! that beat its dope and ones again exellent video. thats waht im looking for haw to match my baseline with the sample btw whats the name of the sample

[MadHatProd]

GREAT Explanation !, perhaps the natural minor may provide a better experience.

[NawfSideNick]

that drive bassline actually sounded good to me on that beat in my opinion

[Hastur.in.yellow]

Great video! Maybe It'll help me not to use kicks as my bass :D

[SoundwaveTheBADman]

I just watched your video for the 1st time and you saying that "you're alive" resonated with me in a MAJOR WAY!!! I'm going through a battle with cancer and for that moment of you saying what you said, made my day bro. Thank you for that and for all that you do on your channel. Dope content as usual, I've yet to crack open my new MPC live II, but once I do, I'll have your tutorials to guide me. I just gotta wrap up some old beats from my MPC 2500 and Studio Black and move them over to the live and start working again. Once again, thank you brother! Keep rockin'. Peace!!

[the.wanginator]

@DJ Cuda we were working on this jus today lol

[AIRJAVITUBE]

When I first start making beats I didn't even add bass. Once I learned I still have trouble finding a sub tuned the way I like.

[DylanRotich]

Usually I go with the Natural Minor instead of the Harmonic Minor. There's only one note difference (harmonic minor has the 7th note up a semitone I think) but the harmonic minor ends up sounding funky in a weird way most of the time.

[avhadproductions]

Family you a blessing bro🤲🏽👊🏽 thanks for this video I’m on the same boat when it comes to baselines lol

[keeptrxllbeats]

But there is also a other trick that we csn do is by playing the bass notes in high notes to clearly see if its in key or not
