Your sample's BPM does not match your projects BPM

fallen burrow Feb 18, 2025, 10:31 PM

You must find the sample bpm

You gotta learn to find the tempo of songs without google

#

Its super useful

fallen burrow Feb 18, 2025, 10:32 PM

#

I just got good enough at that to actually use samples effectively

#

Only bad thing is when the bpm changes

golden remnant Feb 18, 2025, 10:32 PM

fallen burrow Feb 18, 2025, 10:33 PM

#

You have to find out the tempo on your own

golden remnant Feb 18, 2025, 10:33 PM

#

yeah idk how

fallen burrow Feb 18, 2025, 10:34 PM

#

rancid hinge Feb 18, 2025, 10:39 PM

#

Example

#

You just gotta listen to the sample, and try to find the speed at which things happen

rancid hinge Example

the clip doesnt move when i change bpm

rancid hinge Feb 18, 2025, 10:44 PM

Does it have time stretching settings enabled?

golden remnant Feb 18, 2025, 10:44 PM

#

rancid hinge Feb 18, 2025, 10:44 PM

#

Double left click it in the piano roll

#

then screenshot what you see

#

We are looking at the "time" knob here

golden remnant Feb 18, 2025, 10:45 PM

#

its to the left a bit

rancid hinge Feb 18, 2025, 10:45 PM

#

Right click it, "none"

Something else I just noticed, your drum pattern seems to be an odd length

golden remnant Feb 18, 2025, 10:52 PM

#

its at 13

rancid hinge Feb 18, 2025, 10:52 PM

#

Normally you want it to be something like, 4, or 8 bars long. Since your are 4/4 as your time signature. You want it to go 1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4. Make sure your pattern itself isnt like, 3, or 5 bars long.

golden remnant Feb 18, 2025, 10:54 PM

#

i just made it 8 bars it still sounds pretty bad

When you go into the drum pattern itself, when does it end?

#

For example, this is a drum pattern in a beat I made

golden remnant Feb 18, 2025, 10:56 PM

#

rancid hinge Feb 18, 2025, 10:57 PM

#

I notice that the end of pattern 2 does not like up with the grid on the playlist as well, is there a reason for that? or could that be part of the issue?

golden remnant Feb 18, 2025, 10:58 PM

rancid hinge Feb 18, 2025, 10:59 PM

#

The green line is matched to the BPM of your project, whereas the end of your pattern does not match up with that

golden remnant Feb 18, 2025, 11:00 PM

#

oh

#

idk that was just the default length of the pattern

rancid hinge Feb 18, 2025, 11:05 PM

#

I gotta get off my pc for a bit so I wont be able to help much more, but here is an example of me making a drum pattern on a sample. Step one needs to be finding your sample's BPM, then match your projects bpm to it. Then you make sure the sample loops correctly, then you can do drums.
