Akai MPC 4000 Beat Making- Sampling Live Drums and Bass Guitar

Here's a quick video highlighting my process of sampling and developing a beat with the MPC 4000.

I started off by sampling acoustic snare drums and claps using an SM57 through my Mike E Preamp.

Then I recorded the drum sounds into Logic Pro to make use of the effects. I followed up with some sound shaping an sound design using Logic Pro X.

Once I got the drum sound that I wanted, I resampled the drums into the MPC 4000.

Next came the bass guitar which was also sampled into the 4000 through Logic Pro.

I added additional keyboard chords and synths that I sampled into the MPC to add a bit of harmony to the mix.

This is how many of my beats start. If you're interested in learning more about my sampling process let me know in your feedback and comments.
