  • Tutorial covering my work flow on the EP-133. I hope you find it helpful. It was off the cuff & unscripted but I think I covered all of the bases. If not, I'll make a part 2.
    Let me know if you have any further questions. Go create! Spread love & knowledge! Peace!

    Hey Louie, at 19:10 when you erased the pattern, did you know that you can just hold A and press "+" to step to a different pattern for "A" (or any group). You can also hold "A" and press numbers to select the pattern that you want. I have been making patterns for each group and then stepping through them to see what fits.

      Hey! I was aware of being able to change patterns that way but I just got in the habit of doing it as shown here. Definitely good advice though. I’ll pin this comment for others to see! Thanks

    you could use the fader to pitch the entire sample group but that might cause some unforeseen issues when performing live. Personally I want as little shit as possible on the fader..

    How did you keep the ko2 on the sampling page (with the pads blinking) after recording the first chop? Immediately after I record 1 chop, my pads stop blinking. Thanks for the tutorial and dope beats 🔥

    • @louiewithapen
      @louiewithapen  Před 14 dny

      That’s strange. I haven’t had that issue before. My pads stay blinking to show the empty slots. Do you have space available to record additional samples? Maybe your slots are filled to capacity

    How do you set the count in and also how to set how many bars you want?

  • @Nenga117
    @Nenga117 Před 5 měsíci

    FYI, the tempo you are tapping is double the speed of what the tempo of the sample actually is. Snare hits are usually on the 2 and 4 (counting as 1, 2, 3, 4) and the kicks are on 1 and 3. This makes more sense with not “racing” with the speed and keeping everything within a smooth layout.
    Just some knowledge from a drummer. Dope beat!!!!🥁🔥

      I thought I'd continue my story in case anyone is wondering about TE customer service. Ordered 1/26, arrived 1/31, and reported defective 1/3. TE contacted me 2/2 with a form request so I can return the unit. I'm currently waiting for return instructions. My unit was shipped from TE in New Jersey. Their voice mailbox is full and I've been unable to reach anyone. My suggestion is to email TE directly from their site. My unit was purchased from TE. Stay tuned.

    @sarundayo Před 7 měsíci +2

    Dope track, though I feel the drums were overpowering the whole mix. Bring the level down of the kicks, too bassy imo. Also, the samples are fire, just need a bit more trimming to get the right sounds in place. The real mastery comes from knowing when and how to apply effects/transitions. Overall 8/10 track 🔥

      I didn’t think this was a video about sample execution mastery, but more so about workflow concepts- I respectfully disagree with the homie and I’m going for 10 out of 10 on this one myself! I’d rather have a masterful tutorial on workflow than the kick amp dialed in…
