^well, thats more than i needed to hear. the goal for me is to make better tracks than that with nice production. i've already made some in my album, i bet you'll really like. i like to take equal steps in production and scratching at the same time. i think it's very harder to make scratch tracks an...

dope interview. especially what he says about sampling and originality. thats the whole idea of music making.

thanks for listening all. well, this beat is actually just a little drum beat, not music. i programmed this quickly using just a few drum samples, only to practice some scratches that day that i was sick. i recorded the scratches and then mixed them properly, so this is not intended to stand as an i...

very nice!

dope!

dope beat man. this drum loop is one of my favorite.

i was sick today

sick scratch

pretty good for one year.

aaah i am really glad i visited this board tonight!

that was beautiful. really nice influences. this beat made me listen to everything on that page! love the kick on from the sky. lost kingdom is just illess! what can i say, everything in there is dope. i have already heard some of the older tracks. where the fuck do you find those samples? damn...

dope beat man! you have to raise the volume of the vocals a little bit, it will sound much better. that guitar is ill!

dope stuff as usual. you surprised me, i didn't know you rap too. that was fuckin dope as well. can't wait for the album!

i started making beats with 2 turntables and 2 tape decks... no sampler... i didnt know shit about the technical side of how things were supposed to be... i think thats one of the biggest problems today, is that everybody is using the same techniques as everyone else... when u dont know what u are ...

negative. dont research how to make good music. leave your intellect at the door and create what comes natural. yes, but i didn't say that. you can't make good music by reading manuals obviously. what you can do is learn to use the software, choose what's more appropriate, learn the basics such as ...

you'll also need to do a LOT of reading, starting with the user manuals and guides, then tutorials, techniques, videos, magazines, articles on the web, forums like this one and so on.

if you want to make anything decent, that's mandatory.

first off, you have to calculate the latency of your sound card and manually enter the number in the preferences menu. there's a section in the help file that tells you how to do that. however, this didn't work for me. anyway, you can also try numbers and manually check your latency and after a lot ...

Let's say I have a 30 second sample. But I want to use 16 different clips of this sample, and I want some of them to fade in, or be backwards, or be delayed.. or whatever. All in all I want to have about 50 different sounding clips from the same source sample ... YES this is the kind of shit I some...

Would changing over from Acid 4.0 to this be worthwhile? I'm pretty content with acid, but you never know. get acid 5. i stopped using fl and totally got into acid 4 and ableton live. now i got acid 5 and it rocks! no doubt that fl is still a strong app, especially the 5 version, but i'll go with a...

dope album!

the only kinda annoying thing is that computer voice and the other voice that shouts "hiphopapotamus".

knowledgeable/dope guys on this board who are you talking about? anyway, i don't think that this is the place for something like that. that's because we have almost 10 messages or less in the sound lab daily. what i mean is, you can ask anything in a new thread. we're all going to see it and reply ...

when using records, a good thing to do (that's what i do), is look for grooves that you can see with your eye. they are not so tight written with music and they have a darker color. you can see what i mean when your record reaches a part that has a solo, or an acapella, or just atmosphere. these par...

me too, i'm working on my album that's called "dirty beats" :)

but, in my opinion you just gotta make'm dirty instead of using lo-fi samples. it's not bad, i do that too, but you have to be extra careful on the drums.

dope beat. it sure needs a better mix, there's a lot of annoying hiss. or maybe you need to clear the drums somehow, or use clearer drum samples.

these were all dope beats. i can't vote just one... i liked has', kaeo's and nygh's beats most. good work! i think we should vote with the old system and not just vote our favorite. this is more objective. anyway, has could most likely be the winner, so the result is fair enough. ...mine sounds kind...
