i have tried using that program and it was difficult to feel the groove.tone_aot said:If you wanna chop and screw, use acid pro. It is extremely easy that way. First you beatmap the song(which means you put the metronome on time with the song). When you beatmap, it puts the song on time with the grid system on acid pro. Then, just lower the tempo of the whole project to your desireable tone. When you chop, you take whatever is on the third quarter note in a measure and copy it to the second quarter note. It's usally done on the snare hits. Everything is mapped out in the grid system so it is extremely easy to find the places to chop. This is how i usually do it.
Hi_D_Ho_Man said:When you pass this on reffer to it as as the 'Hi-D-H-Man method'
Tha Set Up
1. Pick a song, load it into an automation enabled program like Cubase, Sonar whatever.
2. Pitch shift to knock out the screw part.
3. Load a tempo controlled delay program like the free Voxengo plug here >> http://www.voxengo.com/product/tempodelay/
4. If you know the tempo put it in, if not Adjust the tempo to feel which is actually a bit better IMO.
Tha Method
The delay plug in allows you to chop on the fly in realtime as you see fit. Do this by switch the mix parameter on the dely from back and forth from 0% to 100%. 100% being your actual 'psuedo chop'. you record and play back your chop performance by using your sequencers automation feature.
Tha Down Side
1.If you screw up you gotta start over (unless u know how to edit automation, I don't)
2. Chops have to be clean or the levels may need to be compessed at the master fader.
Extra tips
add an extra delay plug or 2 with different tempo feeds (maybe one at half tempo) and do a second layer of automation.
I posted these tips a long time ago but I couldn't find the thread but try it out and tell me what ya'll think
have you ever heard the dj d version? it is really badass! i met the guy once at a dj scratch off.Mindset said:screwing is easy, there's really not that much skill to doing it. It's just another thing for the shitty music of the south. Granted it did cause a good revolution down here, but maybe the next phase will be the north turning their music into chip munk sounding crap. I used sound forge & mp3 audio mixer to chop & screwed stuff, like michael jackson's billy jean. It sounded real good, but halarious... My bad for hating on it, I'm just into the older generation of hip hop, and I disklike most of the newest things they call music. The lyrics' are like shit, the beats are so simple, my son can create them on his toy. I admit, there are some chopped & screwed songs I like, but now-a-days after dj screw, it's just crap. 1
what is it?Hi_D_Ho_Man said:Here's an example using my method. No double tracks needed. Less than 10 minutes including 5+ mins. to run the song from front to back and export final resort. The only thing you CANT do with my method is when they stop on a line and repeat it several times back to back.
Did this @ 10:30 this evening when I saw this thread pop up again. Check it out

Hi_D_Ho_Man said:^^yeah^^ tempo based delay like the one in the link are easiest for this.
I'm black nigga thats why...Decipha said:im just curious as to why some one would want to screw a song? Isin't that defeating the producers purpose?
