@Carlos how did you do the "stutter/stop" effect? I notice that the drums keep going so you must be only affecting certain tracks.

Also, some of the filter sweeps and slowdown I'm guessing is the X/Y feature if you're on an MPC?

I was wondering about that too, I just assumed it was chops

I’ve been using the effects in Koala. It’s similar to the x/y on the MPC. Workflow is a little more straightforward with Koala.

This is different. Was this 5/4 time signature?

Maybe but not intentionally. I think the drums are 4/4 but the rhythm of the sample hits might not be, or at least some of the layers, so this might be a polyrhythm :hmmm:

MPC has gate effects that can get that done also.
