We as beat makers or producers need to get rid of these problems by not paying them every month and start creating our own sound melodies and drums why pay if we can't use I'm cancelling my subscriptions today
Splice stuff is over used, and it will eventually come back to haunt you. I’m not saying drop it completely, it might be good to Keep up with what they are using so you can steer away from that, also identify who’s using what to know where they stand. Fresh sounds and beats are what you want especially vocal hooks.
I also tell ppl to shazam the loop to see who else has used it. Since I came from the sample and chop era of the SP-1200, I know how to flip it or replay it. But alot of new producers don't come from that.
I use melodies on splice to create my own melodies and chords around it and then delete the sample. I build so much around the loop that I no longer need the loop
The issue is when an artist or producer uploads a beat/song using a splice sample to CZcams's Content ID via distributors like Distrokid. Audio/Video that contains non-exclusive samples (like samples from Splice) are not suppose to be uploaded to CZcams's ContentID. However artists and producers don't read. As a result the artist/producer that uploads a song/beat to CZcamsContentID, gets everyone else who uploads a beat to CZcams with the same splice sample copyright claimed. Reading comprehension is the issue.
Exactly. Happened to me so many times. But also artists do it with sold beats, which sometimes you don’t even know. They’ll just submit a whole album to DistroKid or something and one of the beats may be on there. Hard to say just to exclude one or two of the songs in that case. Right now it’s basically whoever gets to it first on CZcams until something is resolved lol or go through the process of disputing it
Thanks Bolo! Very rarely use Splice for anything other than beats. I’m one of those rare individuals who can actually play keys, guitar, and sing. I’m not that great at making beats and that’s where Splice comes in because they’ve got a metric tON of nice drum loops/one shots. I do like some of the female vocalists they have there though.
Thank you soo much for this info. Even though I learned a few of these things from school, this was a good reminder‼️ This video definitely helped me finish a project
I will continue to use splice samples every now and then. But, I think using and rearranging midi loops is way better, especially if you have a large vst library and effects plugins like stutter edit 2 and shaperbox.
Really thinking about getting splice, at least for a month or 2 to mess around with different samples. Right now I'm just sampling from old music straight from my phone.
What i Don't understand is WHY this is so hard for these company to get right.. If I were to go get a popular sample from a popular artist and clear it, one wouldn't have this problem. Producers used the same samples all the times and seem to not have the same problems.. it's weird to me..
It doesn't matter what you use ... Hundreds of other people are downloading that same sample or that same sample loop and using it in their songs and if they are, they're probably copyrighting them and uploading them to Spotify and Apple Music and then you download the same loop and use it in your song after someone else has already used it already.... Just never use a loop just by itself. Cut it, flip it, rearrange it, pitch it up. Pitch it down
Best way avoid splice, save $1000 get 3 big chicks from your local church and a cpl of crack head musicians make your own sample library lastly learn to play instruments on a basic level and make your own samples
You can’t throw tracklib into this conversation. Because you are required to clear the sample before using. If you pay to clear it you have the right to use it. Not only that it will be harder to use the exact same part of the song as someone else.
It seems the big problem here is that Producer A makes a track using a particular Splice loop, this track gets logged in the Content ID systems, then Producer B makes a different track that happens to use the same Splice Sample. So Content ID strikes Producer B on account of using Producer A's content because it doesn't know that it's a Splice loop. A solution to this problem might be for Splice to load up all it's samples into the Content ID systems and for the Content ID systems to be programmed to ignore them during copyright checks. A lot of expensive effort, no doubt why it hasn't been done. Personally I would say carry on using Splice samples (which you are absolutely licensed to do by Splice) as you like to overload the DSPs help desks, encourage them to sort this out. It's even more expensive to hire an army of new customer service reps to sort out thousands of automated false Splice strikes. Even more expensive still if they get their arses sued for loss of earnings on account of incorrectly/illegally interfering with the release of artist's 100% legit material.
Hey, Potential noob question here, recently gotten really into using beatmaker in my workflow as it and astra provide redrum like sequencing capability, but have recently had problems with keeping the sequencer from playing over my session even after I've closed the plug in window or exported a lane or sequence [regardless of audio or midi] What do I need to do to be able to use it in my sessions similarly to how one might use the redrum sequencer in reason I mentioned before without it breaking my sessions? Please help + thanks in advance!
Other good stuff to do is recreate the loop at your own way. I know a lot of famous producer always recreate the samples for not getting in copyright issues
This is a problem that exists because producers are being LAZY! You should NEVER be using a melodic sample as-is. Edit, pitch, chop, drop it in a vst and re-trigger it, etc. That should always be what you're doing with your samples. Yes, it takes longer, but it's FUN. Plus, music doesn't need to be done fast, it needs to be GOOD. Slow down and be creative!
Whats up Bolo brotha i need your help what would be the best specs on a home pc as far as specs i have splice,omnisphere 2,fl studio 20,arcade i have nothing but clicks n pops so now i only use my fl studio 20 my pc is 8 years old i heard that i need to get a faster processor i have enough gigs of ram so im good on ram
So if you were once a member of spice but not anymore eventho you paid to get those samples if your track gets a strike say on CZcams for content ID we are out of luck??
Might be a stupid question but would it be an issue if you blend two melodies together? I almost always pitch and change shit up but there are times where I blend two different melodies together to get a different sound.
Blending 2 melodies together is a good idea. One rule of thumb should be to chop or alter the samples. chop in it in 2,4,8 rearrange the parts, or a beat delay or something. I heard a dude do a tutorial on beat making. I recognized the loop from splice. I told him this same thing. At that point I realized some guys just do this for kicks. They have no desire to be great outside the neighborhood. You can not take a loop, put a trap beat on it and say u made the beat. U can until money is at play.
For example. Everyone is buying a box of Frosted Flakes and repacking it with these loop packs. Little do they know each flake is encrypted with the Kelloggs stamp. 😂. Just get a turntable or get it from the original sources. Then manipulate the hell out of it. 💯
Bolo I got an email asking about those splice sounds and samples and the email from there department told me i am protected as long as i dont change or variate the sample. What do you think there saying are they lying or cause unless you pay the big money splice plan the lower rated pay plans seem to only be the ones used the most and so who is protecting the artist you say you told them you used a sample from splice it was resolved yet there not smart enough in there algorythms and A.I to know where it came from the only new sounds are those that come from merging and manipulating sounds that come from nature
Get inspired by it. DON’T pay for a subscription- splice is one of those programs that’ll come and bite you in the ass. Once you start using it you’ll get caught up in their game, because and soon as you drop your subscription guess what your no longer covered by “I’m a member” and all your songs will instantly not be yours, besides why do you want loops that are used by 10,000 people. And they are using the same samples, loops, and beats there is only so many ways you can tweak those sounds they eventually all get copyrighted, and the last thing you want is to be fighting over someone claiming your royalties.
To be honest i feel like its cheating..... using someone else his work rather then creating your own sounds. I have used samples and i still do but the more i use them the less it feels like the work is mine.
I just want to ask why does everyone seem to have so many different versions of Akai drum machines or just drum machines in general. I have an MPC 2000 XL I bought in 2001 and now I’m planning on getting one of the new machines. But I’m just confused as to why everyone has bought so much of the same thing to a degree. I'm looking at the MPC X SE for my next one. Am I missing something?
We as beat makers or producers need to get rid of these problems by not paying them every month and start creating our own sound melodies and drums why pay if we can't use I'm cancelling my subscriptions today
The Problem is not with the Service, The Problem is with A-Holes who want to circumvent The Splice Terms of Use & file Fake Claims.
Samples are funny. Always check the rights you've purchased
Respect
Great Point 👍🏾

I never use samples or loops. So I'm straight. I do like how easy sampling and chopping is now, and how inspiring a sample can be.
Aye let's work
Same man. Sampling can be a damn headache at times
I also tell ppl to shazam the loop to see who else has used it. Since I came from the sample and chop era of the SP-1200, I know how to flip it or replay it. But alot of new producers don't come from that.
haven’t watched the video yet but i’m pitching all samples either up or down
That + chop ups + effects
I use melodies on splice to create my own melodies and chords around it and then delete the sample. I build so much around the loop that I no longer need the loop
That's a dope idea though. Thanks
@@jondilliom Thats actually Genius you should be proud of that method fr.
Good idea.
@jondilliom it's a great tool for inspiration especially if you have a creative block.
That's what I do as well! It's a great guide and actually helps you mixing your own stuff
I’m doing a video on a similar topic. I keep getting copyright claims on drum patterns that I am literally making during the video. It’s crazy.
Producers are over saturating the drum patterns with the same drum kits
Please do!
@@3SixSoulz listen, the part the claimed was literally the most basic, starting drum pattern ever. 😂. The crazy thing is, it got 2 separate claims.
@@DDS825 crazy
Do your own drum patterns.

Best way to use Splice is to not use Splice at all lol 👊🧡👍 preferance of course and to each their own ✌️
This is my mentality. I do everything myself, maybe takes me longer but it's 100% intellectually mine.
@@intricateinc8566 💯% on point brother!
Great video Bolo!
Thanks!
You can also take the sample melody and turn it into midi.
Really thinking about getting splice, at least for a month or 2 to mess around with different samples. Right now I'm just sampling from old music straight from my phone.
Thanks for the content bishop bolo
Best producer on this platform
Also Shazam the loops you’ll see how many people searched and which artist used the loops.
What i Don't understand is WHY this is so hard for these company to get right.. If I were to go get a popular sample from a popular artist and clear it, one wouldn't have this problem. Producers used the same samples all the times and seem to not have the same problems.. it's weird to me..

What about Loopcloud & Tracklib is similar to a Splice, is CZcams targeting those samples too for copyrights.
It doesn't matter what you use ... Hundreds of other people are downloading that same sample or that same sample loop and using it in their songs and if they are, they're probably copyrighting them and uploading them to Spotify and Apple Music and then you download the same loop and use it in your song after someone else has already used it already.... Just never use a loop just by itself. Cut it, flip it, rearrange it, pitch it up. Pitch it down
Tracklib you can clear the sample before you release the track very simple process, loop cloud idk
Best way avoid splice, save $1000 get 3 big chicks from your local church and a cpl of crack head musicians make your own sample library lastly learn to play instruments on a basic level and make your own samples

@@GOASTWRITTER Good point that’s why I lean to tracklib real samples may even help real artist
Great Video! What about using Shazam after you make a beat to check if it's being used?
Thanks
If you were a member at one point you are covered. It says you can use samples that you downloaded while you were a member
I think he's talking about the people who download torrents of Splice content and don't have a license to use it.
I only use splice for drums, perc loops, sfx...
What about reversing it?
i love zzounds!

I have a big question. How do youtube find out copyright issues?
Content ID
Other good stuff to do is recreate the loop at your own way. I know a lot of famous producer always recreate the samples for not getting in copyright issues
I thought as long as you had your certification for the sample you used and you were a member, you would be protected. Is that correct?
Love this channel... love the info
I only use the vocals loops and i chop segments out and pitch em

Why’d you slow down on the iPad content, if you don’t mind me asking? It was pretty awesome.
Nothing has been exciting about most of the programs. Only thing I like is the Audio Kit sounds and a few plugins
@@BoloDaProducer gotcha
Thanks bolo
man thanks for real ur a real one , FEETIUS
decided to join the part :)
Thanks!
Do you ever use SoX for converting bit rates, etc?
I would have thought generating a license for any samples and uploading them with the track would have covered any issues. But am I wrong?
Whats up Bolo brotha i need your help what would be the best specs on a home pc as far as specs i have splice,omnisphere 2,fl studio 20,arcade i have nothing but clicks n pops so now i only use my fl studio 20 my pc is 8 years old i heard that i need to get a faster processor i have enough gigs of ram so im good on ram

Chop everything. Pitch everything. Change the speed of everything. Don’t just use the loops. Flip everything.
For example. Everyone is buying a box of Frosted Flakes and repacking it with these loop packs. Little do they know each flake is encrypted with the Kelloggs stamp. 😂. Just get a turntable or get it from the original sources. Then manipulate the hell out of it. 💯
Hey DUDE! RANDOM ASS MF QUESTION, did you do voice over for few charachters in FALLOUT NEW VEGAS???
No, but I wish I did lol
Does this apply to loopcloud and using acapellas?
I always manipulate spice loops and make them my own that way I won’t have this problem
Bolo I got an email asking about those splice sounds and samples and the email from there department told me i am protected as long as i dont change or variate the sample. What do you think there saying are they lying or cause unless you pay the big money splice plan the lower rated pay plans seem to only be the ones used the most and so who is protecting the artist you say you told them you used a sample from splice it was resolved yet there not smart enough in there algorythms and A.I to know where it came from the only new sounds are those that come from merging and manipulating sounds that come from nature
So the certication that you can get stating that you are authorized to use the sample is null and void. Interesting.
Does this apply to Arcade samples as well?
Don’t use any sample in its original state…..that’s my motto
One shot drums only.
Man splice never worked linking up to my MPC

I only use Splice for drums I don’t sample I just recreate it
who the f pays for samples? loops or drums. it's CALLED SAMPLING!!! buy a sampler and pay for samples? make it make sense
😂 okay, I see your perspective. Paradox of life. Everyone is different! 😊
The best way to avoid content id and copyright is to NOT use splice. Easy fix!
Also the best way to not drown is to never swim 😂
To be honest i feel like its cheating..... using someone else his work rather then creating your own sounds. I have used samples and i still do but the more i use them the less it feels like the work is mine.
You are spanking folks on here. Lol haaaaaaaaa 😛
Nobody should be able to say "I used it first" when using material from splice
Or, you could learn music theory and not have to sample 😀. Your music is better than someone else’s music.
Just dont
i ain't had no problem since 3 years. i utilize #5 constantly.
Or just go and learn some music theory and create your very own and original music and avoid all these hassles
