SAMPLE CHOP · free · in your browser
Sample chopper for the MPC Sample
Load a record, record what's playing on your computer or dig a free sample. Padhead finds the tempo and the best loop, and chops it to 16 pads ready for your MPC.
What it does
Finds the loop
Detects the BPM and suggests the best 4, 8 or 16 bar loops, with or without drums.
Four ways to chop
Equal chops on the grid, on the strongest hits, on every transient over a threshold, or by hand.
Record what's playing
Share a browser tab and Padhead records it, starting on the first sound and stopping when you pause. Only sample what you are allowed to.
Dig free samples
Search public-domain recordings and chop them in one click.
How it works
- Load, record or dig a sample.
- Pick a suggested loop or drag it yourself.
- Choose how to chop, then play the pads.
