The Think Break | Sample, Process & Chop to Sampler & Drum Rack in Ableton | Perfect for Jungle

There are four excellent breakbeat samples in Lyn Collins' 1972 'Think (About It)' plus a super useful tambourine loop. In this video I show you how to sample and process all of them in Ableton, and two methods for chopping my favourites to Ableton stock devices: Sampler & Drum Rack. Method 1 is to chop to a Sampler, for every slice of the Think. Method 2 shows you how to chop the Think break to a Drum Rack. The Think breaks are perfect for jungle, drum and bass and all kinds of electronic music and they pair up beautifully with the Amen. You can get this Ableton Project, along with loads more chopped breaks, Project files, Ableton presets and sample dumps on my Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/posts/think-b... I made a playlist featuring this video along with all the times I've worked with the Think break in one of my music production livestreams:    • The Think Break   The software I use for sampling and screen recording: https://rogueamoeba.com/loopback/ A really good, high quality free alternative sampler for audio in Google Chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/de...
