In this video I demonstrate 3 techniques I use in Quick Sampler for creating custom drum, synth and bass sounds. Enjoy! #logicpro #tutorial #quicksampler
That flex time tip is a lifesaver, amazing that all that stuff is right in front of our noses but we never think about using most of it until we've seen it in action and in context. Great vid!
Good & usefull video. The bass loop: Instead of slowering the envelopp attack time on a clicky loop start you can also slighty fade in the begining of the loop.
Thanks! You're really helping me get up to speed with Logic. I'm teaching beat making to kids this summer, so I'll have bunches of techniques to share.
I use the Quick Sampler for loops too, works great! I love the Slices features, makes it so easy to personalize pre made loops and make it your own. LOGIC RULES!
I love this so much! I was just talking about whether or not using loops as they are is cheating or not. I feel like it is cheating, and this puts a stop to that! Thanks again, man! Your vid’s are saving my broke a** from spending money I don’t have to learn.
Another great Vid. I haven't done much of this experimentation with splice samples, it's on my list of things to do. With all the ways you can use logic it can be over whelming sometimes but good to know.
Another fun trick: In the gear menu in the upper right of Quick Sampler, you can choose to take a sliced instrument and convert it into a Drum Machine Designer track. This will create a Quick Sampler per slice, and organize it into a Pad based drum machine style layout. This will also automatically generate a MIDI file from the slices. :) You’ll get a channel strip per slice! :)
Awesome Video Josh....Shut my place down for a few years trying to improve personal health....slowly getting back into things....glad you are still kicking it awesomely....Joe from Staten Island
I'm embarrassed that I'm JUST NOW finding out this quick sampler has even existed in Logic - to use for dragging Wav samples into to immediately convert to MIDI files. So handy
I've been a sub since I first got LP in 2013 (LPX back then), and can I just say - there has not been a single day since then when I have not been absolutely impressed by your content and delivery. Not a single day. In my books, you are the Wayne Gretzky/Cristiano Ronaldo of LP videos. #wellflippingdone
Do perfect DAW tutorials exist? Look nowhere else than MusicTechHelpGuy!! Wow!! I had no idea this is what quick sampler could do!! I can't afford native instruments base package at this time which comes with Battery but this sampler plus splice will open up production for me for sure!! Thank you so much and God Bless you!!
Thanks Music Tech Help Guy!! The explanation is so clear. Can we directly drag the audio into midi info using quick sampler so I can edit on it? From this video it seems that I have to build the beat myself. Thanks!
I want to be able to play the sample so that I can push the key or pad and not have to hold the key down for the whole thing to play. Also want to have it so that when I push one key and then then another, the first one stops as soon as I hit second key. With the old Logic and exs instrument I had this dialed in but can figure it out with new sampler!
Thank for the tut. I am trying to create a drum kit of found objects. How can I import my own sounds and put one completely different sound per key. I thought I could do it with the kit designer, but I only see ways to use samples already in logic.
I noticed your project was set to c max. When dropping samples from splice to logic. With they convert to the project key like apple loops or do they stay the same? Just wondering thanks. By the way didn't know all about the sampler coming from studio one to logic but I really like logic. Great video. Thanks
Excellent as always Josh. One question (I feel like a moron for asking) but (for example) in the bass line - you said it chose C3 and if you play that it plays the sample. How do you get all the notes - do you just play the notes on a midi player as you would any VST?
If you use any of the modes other than Slicing, the default pitch of the sample will be set to C3. So that means that no transposing is happening on C3. If you play on any MIDI controller, or with the Command K, keyboard, when you play higher than C3, the sample is pitched up, and lower than C3 the sample is pitched down. The tricky thing is that C3 may not be the actual pitch you're hearing. If you drag in a sample that has a root note of A4 for example, now when you press C3, you're actually hearing A4.
The thing is: when I import my sample from splice to the quick sampler, it won't play back. I hit the keys in my midi controller and Logic does everything it is supposed to do but no sound is coming out of it. Anyone can help?
Quick question. With the pulsing bass sound, why not load that into the ‘Optimised’ version of Quick Sampler. Wouldn’t that sort out the key issue and tempo?
Hi musictechhelpguy, How do I for example make a short note last for example 20 seconds that I have dragged and dropped into Alchemy or Quicksampler? For example if I want to chop a short C note of a bass guitar from a sample thats 1/16 note however when I press a key it will last 20 seconds long like it's from a Plugin preset?
Hey bud...I have a question that I just cant seem to get an answer to. I want to mix a live show. So it has separate stems (for each vocal and instrument), but its this whole show. Each song is in different time signatures. But I want to lock the whole show to the grid to make quantizing and other things possible. Can and How do I change the tempo at 05:57 for example to accommodate the time signature of the next song? I use the tempo track up top, but I just cant seem to get it smack on the first downbeat of the next song. When I try to move it onto the first downbeat, most of the time it either jumps like a millisecond before or after the first downbeat...which does not help. Any advice? You would be saving a life here! LOL!
This video hits the mark so we'll in terms of information that allows you to use Logic in the way it was intended that I almost feel like I've cheated... I mean. I do feel like I cheated. Cheating hurts so good🤣🤣🤣
when i drag the audio file i'm not getting the option for quick sampler to open up. nor am i seeing quick sapler in intstruments on the instrument track panel on the left. i have logic pro x
Please bro I need help! Ever since I updated logic I cant show the output master track anymore. I cant make master track automations and I can see it anymore. How do i get it to pop up cause ill click show output track and nothing comes up. Thx
I love how concise and loaded with information your videos are. Definitely the best DAW teacher on CZcams
I agree
👏👏👏
Didn't realize we had flex inside Quick Sampler...very helpful
That flex time tip is a lifesaver, amazing that all that stuff is right in front of our noses but we never think about using most of it until we've seen it in action and in context. Great vid!
This is an excellent video. Thank you. This opens up a lot of unique possibilities.
this is so sick thank you
Very cool, so much control!
I've been using logic for a while, and this update has really got me excited! thanks for the video; you really cleared some things up for me!
Amazing! Thanks so much for all you do.
Great tips. Thank-you!
Great thanks so much! Really clear explanations - I'm ready to try some things out now!!
Great vid! Love the balance of concise info but still throwing in plenty of detail. Well paced.
Excellent…and cool tune! JPMusic
Thanks for another wonderful video and tips. I look forward to trying this.
Good & usefull video.
The bass loop: Instead of slowering the envelopp attack time on a clicky loop start you can also slighty fade in the begining of the loop.
Awesome! Thanks! 🙏
Thanks! You're really helping me get up to speed with Logic. I'm teaching beat making to kids this summer, so I'll have bunches of techniques to share.
Tip #3 was EXACTLY what I was looking for! Thank you for enlightening me 🙏
Very informative, straight to the point and clear! Thanks!!
I use the Quick Sampler for loops too, works great! I love the Slices features, makes it so easy to personalize pre made loops and make it your own. LOGIC RULES!
Thank you for this clear and useful tutorial
Super awesome video!
Thank you. Great tips.
Wow! That was incredibly helpful... Thanks!
great video man. thanks.
Amazing starting point here.
Life saver! Thankyou
Such a great explanation.
Bravo! Excellent Tutorial!
Cool stuff !
Liked and subbed. Finally got my head around sampler. Thanks
Great! Thanks a lot!
You're great, thanks sm for the video
great insight thanks
Thanks Joshua yours is the best channel for logic, pro content
Great channel and excellent vid!
Nice!! Thanks!
Amazing tip very cool man. I was thinking how to make loops more me in my production. Prayer answered
For a newbie to Logic Pro X like me this was invaluable! You are an excellent teacher - Thanks so much!
congratulations on the upgrade/ switch to logic :)
I love this so much! I was just talking about whether or not using loops as they are is cheating or not. I feel like it is cheating, and this puts a stop to that! Thanks again, man! Your vid’s are saving my broke a** from spending money I don’t have to learn.
Thank you so much!
cool stuff!
That trick with the flex & follow tempo to keep the pulsing the same tempo …. THANK U
Another great Vid. I haven't done much of this experimentation with splice samples, it's on my list of things to do. With all the ways you can use logic it can be over whelming sometimes but good to know.
you are the man, man.🦀
I knew you’d have the answer! I was struggling with the pitch and tempo of a pulsating sample and BOOM! Flex.
YOU ARE AMAZING ...THANK YOU
KATSHING.... Lesson learned again! Thank you!
Thanks...just learning logic...very useful
Learned what I needed to know in the first minute! bookmarked, subscribed and thumbs up'ed! lol
Lot of inspiration from this vid 🎹👊
Another fun trick:
In the gear menu in the upper right of Quick Sampler, you can choose to take a sliced instrument and convert it into a Drum Machine Designer track. This will create a Quick Sampler per slice, and organize it into a Pad based drum machine style layout. This will also automatically generate a MIDI file from the slices. :)
You’ll get a channel strip per slice! :)
Thanks!
How do you get just a small number of the slices onto a DMD track? Rather than all the slices?

game changer thank you
Thank You!
Best music production channel 🙌
Great!
Thanks!
Thank you &&&Very helpful
All of this makes my sample library that much more useful. I’m going to have fun with this. As ever, many thanks for another great video Josh!
Great !!!!
Also: you can automatically tune a sample by control-clicking in the sample area and choosing to auto-tune
You rock !
Commenting so the algorithm gives me more of your videos
Bestttttt man!
Thank you so much

Dude, I literally did not know this. You can color them! Color them!
I'm digging the sampler too! It's alot like serato sample!
Do perfect DAW tutorials exist? Look nowhere else than MusicTechHelpGuy!! Wow!! I had no idea this is what quick sampler could do!!

Hey man great vid, just wondering do you know how to automate the loop length in logic sampler ?
Thanks
I was going to pick up the Sample Logic Animation Station, and this just prevented me from doing that. :)
Good material Josh! Thanks.
What color scheme are you using. I like the hues you got going on. Anything special?
I want to be able to play the sample so that I can push the key or pad and not have to hold the key down for the whole thing to play. Also want to have it so that when I push one key and then then another, the first one stops as soon as I hit second key.

Thank for the tut.
I am trying to create a drum kit of found objects. How can I import my own sounds and put one completely different sound per key. I thought I could do it with the kit designer, but I only see ways to use samples already in logic.
Think i could really get into sampling.
🤯👍🏾👍🏾

Thanks!!! What is splice?
how about changing the news note position on the keyboard controller?
Let ist Go

Do you know how can I sample any sample and remove the decay but when I press the note it sounds long? I don’t know if you got me (In Quick Sampler)
Hey do you follow the same procedure by drag an audio track to the same location. Anybody I'm at work and can't try right now, just wondering.
Yes, you can drag any audio from the tracks area into the track header.
Should I get logic or FL?
when i drag the audio file i'm not getting the option for quick sampler to open up. nor am i seeing quick sapler in intstruments on the instrument track panel on the left. i have logic pro x
Hi where can I find good drum loops for pop mus?
How to EQ the drum topper separately?
Can this be done with the apple loops that are part of Logic?
Yes, absolutely. You can drag any Apple Loop into Quick Sampler.
A question for you, i have Logic Pro X, where do i find that Quick Sampler Tricks? Is it build in Logic Pro? Thanks .Cheers
Yeah it built in! If you just drag a sample onto the instrument/audio column area thing, a menu pops up and you select the quick sampler
@@hyly8038 thank you
Is there any advantage to using a step sequencer pattern instead of just MIDI?
Nope. I just like it because it only shows you the lanes where you actually have slices.
@@MusicTechHelpGuy got it, thanks!
Please bro I need help! Ever since I updated logic I cant show the output master track anymore. I cant make master track automations and I can see it anymore. How do i get it to pop up cause ill click show output track and nothing comes up. Thx
Press shift command M. It will appear in the tracks area.
@@MusicTechHelpGuy Thanks man! Big fan of the channel.
