hi this is max from fo studio tips and
today I will show you five tricks for
better drop and hip hop minutes so this
trick will be about making alt detuned
kinda sample piano only using stock
plugins so let's go to effects
instruments keyboard and choose close
grande as you can see I already prepared
first mixer channel for that now let's
add some notes I have this MIDI right
here
okay so first thing we will add is
equalizer but in preset called radio you
can tweak it a little if you want second
thing will be Maximus in preset called
lo-fi
[Music]
next thing will be compression so let's
add limiter go to compressor mode turn
down the threshold and increase ratio
[Music]
and the last thing will be patcher as
drug line from our studio to fo studio
and choose preset called human eyes err
you can drag the volume speed down as
you can hear it will add some type
detune kind of effect now it's here in
the mix second trick is about reversing
melody but preserving the notes and
here's what I mean first thing is to
write your MIDI of course
now you'll need to hit ctrl a to select
all notes and hit alt Y we'll need to
flip only horizontally and preserve
start times hit accept and now we just
need to take our base notes and drag on
to the left as you can hear we already
have called different melody but what we
want is actually go to the playlist mark
our pattern and hit ctrl alt C set tail
to cut or rub I set it to cut and sort
now when we got our sample let's double
click it and hit reverse
[Music]
as you can hear we preserved our notes
that we had earlier but we got the
reverse effect let's hear it in the mix
[Music]
by the way this is actually our preview
for our trap sample pack if you're
interested check out the link below next
freak is about using scales let's insert
sampler
go to camera roll and insert one of the
scales that we give you as a freebie
today now when you go to scale let's go
to the instrument and open piano roll
now the one rule is just to follow the
notes that are highlighted for example
as the super simple bit like next trick
is about adding movement to your sample
so let's say I have melody here that I
made and I rendered it to sample so it's
easier to play with it the common
technique to you add movement is adding
volume automation so let's double click
on the sample right click on volume and
create automation clip now you can do it
by a double clicking on automation clip
and setting it to LFO and play with the
settings but I find the following
technique more convenient so let's
shorten it to one beat and now we'll do
some kind of shape here band it up and
extend here and bend it to the opposite
side now what we would like to have it
shorter we can double click on it set
the range to 12 and increase it all the
way up
now we can just mark it and hit ctrl B
yeah now we can just render your example
hit shift em and shorten it and set it
to stretch mode to preserve the pitch
yeah and actually let's hear it in mix
[Music]
this trick will be about making your
melodies unique and interesting
especially when you're working with
loops so let's load a loop from our new
trap sample pack let's slow it here
[Music]
double click on the sample right click
on the waveform and open and fruity
slicer now when you play notes and you
can actually make totally different
sample but today I want to merge two of
them so let's put down the pitch
now let's assign it to new mixer channel
up maybe delay I'll use delay free maybe
set it to ping-pong increase the
resonance set it to bandpass now maybe
some reverb
[Music]
and maybe some a queuing
[Music]
okay now let's hit f7 to open camera
delete everything and draw you Mellie
[Music]
all right
now let's go to the playlist view and
put the pattern over the original sample
[Music]
cool let's hear it in mix alright make

you enjoyed it and I hope to see you
soon in next video
