Really though. I’ve been using Slicex for as long as I’ve had FL and I prefer it over Edison almost every time, but not one video on CZcams has as this much articulation and understanding that I don’t want to just know how to do something, I need to know what and why I’m doing something a certain way. I don’t really subscribe to any tutorial channels, but I definitely subscribed to this one. Saw you’re comment at the top and I was like, “Damn, I feel that.” 🤟🏼💯
When checking the length of a note in the piano roll, you can double click on the note. The duration is shown there and also editable directly. No need to move the note in the piano roll or measure using the playmarker.
Dude thank you so much. For years I have been frustrated trying to figure out how to time stretch each chop. I always saw that there was an option to do so, but my frustration always got the best of me. Thanks man, game changer for me. 👊
Not my discovery but to get a play-through effect (for those who don't know, meaning the sample doesn't stop at the end marker and plays till you let go). Delete the sustain node, make a new one, drag it all the to the top and drag it really far back considerably and voila, more freedom for better unique sampling but make note: it will have to be recorded.
dude you gave us more sauce in this 12 min video than a bunch of other tutorials ive seen that are 20 min long to tell us how to do 4 main things YOU ARE A GODSEND
For anyone wondering btw, might be obvious, but you can ctrl c, ctrl v a piece you've already chopped into another section with the same method he uses to replace a section of a sample, if you wanted to process the same sound on different inserts or cut it differently :)
This has taken me to a complete new level. I am so geeked for this milestone of progress in my producer career and just need to thank you Navie! You go crazyyyy
I never bothered to learn SliceX but it's 1AM and I wanted to do something new. This literally taught me everything I needed/wanted to do. Thank you so much! Not sure why there are 7 dislikes on this smh some people just hate to hate.
The Start Function Knobs can also be used to make a more Precise de-click by moving the start point away from the clicks. I’ve had to use this function more often than declick out/in regions, because of the inability to actually take away the clicks at times.
Brooooo thank you so much for showing how to asign all samples at once to Cut 1. I have been asigning each slice to cut 1 , ONE BY ONE. Now you can imagine how painful it can be doing that every time you are chopping samples to play it mpc style
I know I said it before, but this is true for this case as well. This video is super useful, my head is exploding from realizing all the possibilities of Slicex. Thank you, you're the best!
I always use Slicex but didn't know half these tips, I used to dread sending 10+ chops or whatever to a cut group manually I didn't know you could do it that easily, thank you
I was just in the middle of manually chopping samples and figured there had to be a better way. This tutorial is gold, going to save me hours of tedium, thanks dude
Yoo these vids are amazing bro keep doing what you’re doing I can see this channel blowing up in no time for sure! Some tips on beat arrangement and structure would be super helpful btw, keep up the good work 🔥
Thank you so much man, and thank you for watching 🙏🏽 funny you say that, I actually just uploaded a video about beat structuring that's going to be released next week. Hopefully you like that one!
Been watching loads of your videos over the past few days and I have legit learned more about fl then I have in the past year. I have only been using it to record vocals until recently I have decided to have a go at producing. You are the man! And you deserve way more attention 🙏
🙌🏾thank you for sharing , I learned alot about slicex that will shorten my production time. 🙏🏾 People sleep on slicex but its one of the best ways to sample on FL to me.
Thanks for all the tips! I remember when started to learn how to use Slicex from scratch I was trying to remake Numb / Encore by Jay-Z & Linkin Park with the sample of Numb. A thing that I do when I use melodic samples is in the ADSR part I select single curve 3 and put it to 100% just to avoid de click at the beginning of the chop
Oooh I'll have to look into this. It's funny that you started off doing remixes/remakes like that too. I used to do that type of stuff when I was super young and first got curious about music
yo thank you for being thorough, ive been trying to mimic a specific sample used by a popular producer, on and off for about a year & this video helped me understand how i can manipulate the original sample in ways i didnt think i could before!
Navie if you had a class offered, I would definitely pay to take it. You are well-spoken, and your knowledge depth is evident by how well you break down the complex stuff so beginners get it first shot!
Bro, thank you so much for this video, I don’t normally subscribe to tutorial channels but if your other videos are as clear-cut as this one than you got my subscription for sure. Stay up and really thank you again, man. 🙏🏼
subscribed, this video is a gamechanger i been using slice x for years and have been feeling so limited by it, guess I just didn't know how to really use it!
Ayyy awesome man, thanks. I did a video a few weeks back on a sampler called Momentum that I use instead of SliceX now. You may wanna check that video out cuz I got sick of SliceX and its limitations too
Thanks for your video. Helped my get routing out to each marker in Nuendo's track out or aka active outs. Now you can have effects of your choice to each marker.
@@red0ctane19 I've been wondering about the masterclass myself.. lol might look into it after my baby boy comes into the world 🌎 this December. Good luck with the choppin!
@@MvnStn I meant this masterclass 😝 But as far as his course, it's well worth it imo! Been in it since the beginning and have progressed so much so quickly. Super active discord. Beat challenges every 2 weeks to push us to try new things and understand new concepts we never would have attempted. I connect really well to his teaching style so was a no brainer for me for sure. If I revisit these old vids a ton you bet I'm hitting those course sections up nonstop as I progress. Lol. Still learning with each watch. Not tryna sound like a salesman, though. Just trying to be honest and support and help others. 😝 Congrats on your upcoming child. That's dope! Good luck choppin too my friend! Stay safe. 🙏
@@red0ctane19 well IF you were a salesman, you woulda sold me! haha But yea, totally agrred on the same points you made. Navie just has a knack for gettin it through my head haha and thanks, im super hyped! Gonna have me a legacy to leave behind! Cheers!
@@MvnStn 🤣🤣 Maybe I needa ask for some commission! Lol. But for real. Went through so many other people before legit learning like I do from Navie. Definitely learned a few super basics from others, but that was more just workflow stuff and shortcuts. Lol. But that's legit! Can't even imagine having a legacy to leave behind. Keep going back and forth. Still have time, though. 😅 Best of luck! Will be dope!

@@10kucold23 check out Navie’s other sampling video - he teaches how to quantize chops using newtime
How do I start my marker at c3 stead of the default
bruh this is the best tutorial for slicex ever wow
Thank you man, glad you got something out of the video 👌🏽
I want to second that! No fluff and straight up. Only really the most useful functions
Big facts my guy
It's true💯
And I'm only 3:48 into the video... I already know alot
Just need to get used to the shortcuts tho
Really though.

You literally changed some lives with this one.
😂 that may be a bit dramatic, but thank you nonetheless
Not dramatic at all, trust me🙂
I wish every tutorial was like this. Quick, to the point, covers the common pitfalls. Fantastic!
Thank you Cheef! I try my best not to waste peoples time
This is hands down. THE BEST Slicex tutorial ever. You helped me, and so many other people with producing. Thank you!
Hahah you are welcome Alex!
When checking the length of a note in the piano roll, you can double click on the note. The duration is shown there and also editable directly. No need to move the note in the piano roll or measure using the playmarker.
This doesn’t change the length of the sample dude
the auto dump button!!
Thanks man. I didn't know that even existed. I almost gave up because of that problem.
Hahah yep, the auto dump button has ruined many beats throughout history. Glad you're able to avoid it now
Little weird quirks will frustrate you in fl just like the medium slice
@@NavieD I really don't understand the purpose of it.
Dude thank you so much. For years I have been frustrated trying to figure out how to time stretch each chop. I always saw that there was an option to do so, but my frustration always got the best of me. Thanks man, game changer for me. 👊
Ok, this thing cleared A LOT for me. I was breaking my mind with that master pitch thing, pissed me off much because it changes time also.. thanks!!
Yeah SliceX can be really irritating with it's time/pitch shifting
This video is literally a sample-saver. Thank you so much for making this.
You're welcome!
Slicex needs an instant pitch and stretch feature. Pitching samples with Slicex is very inefficient. Great video btw
Agreed. It's so frustrating. They need to copy the way fruity slicer does it and just put that in slicex.
Let me know if you have a useful tips that I didn't cover in this video!

@@tysnblck Good tip! Thanks for sharing my friend
Thx alot man. I feel alot better since IL took Edison away from me
Adding marker 1 as downbeat is better for me, then I have the snap to grid option and can look sections. Need to enter/know bpm
How do you slow the sample down when its pitched up?
dude you gave us more sauce in this 12 min video than a bunch of other tutorials ive seen that are 20 min long to tell us how to do 4 main things YOU ARE A GODSEND
Hahah thanks man, I try my best not to waste peoples time
Your videos are extremely helpful, step by step and thorough. So refreshing!
