i see alot of people asking how and wut and when and where and all the doo dads in software chopping.

so basically i hope i can help sum of the new guys here

To start off

you need

PropellarHead Recycle
and FL Studio
Audacity

1. steal a banging 16 bar right?!? in audacity
loop by pressing shift and space bar

2. once it is in a loop. fly that **** over to recycle
and begin the magic

start by clicking the "Preview toggle" button next to the stop button
at the top insert "1" for bars then OK

3. drag down the view menu and click show grid

4. now the grid should show the chop points perfectly if you have a 16 or 8 bar

if not then read numba 5!!

5. **** with the number of beats til you get wut you want

6. go to Process menu then "add slices at grid"

and also make sure "export as one sample" is NOT clicked on
in the process menu

now go to file export and make yourself a folder...seriously a folder

no desktop **** here!!!

7. all your chops shoudl be in that folder now right???!!!?!?!

8. open up that newbie ass sounding FL studio of yours hahah

9.go to PLugin Presets>generators and go to FPC

10.open an empty one into your track

11. click on the first pad..whichever one.

12. arrange the FPC and your samples folder so that you can see both of em

13. drag and drop your samples in order on to the pads

14. all your pads should play a sound now but it might not be in line with your MIDI controller so nowwwwwww

15. click the first pad and go to "Midi note"

16. find the word "learn" in the MIDI Note menu

17. now click your MIDI controller pad to assign it

18 yadadadada ***** do the same **** with the rest!

now all your samples should be in order

start choppin **** up but wait!!!!!!!

ech sample wont stop itself if you click another

so now go to each note and change the "cut" and "by" to 1
on EVERY sample pad

now go to "options" drag down menu and click "save note layout"

so that you never have to **** with doing all this **** again.


FINDING BPM.

wut i do is get the original sample and drag it the FL studio playlist
and change the bpm til it fits perfectly and loops perfectly in the playlist

yadada!
