    Nice laid back beat, thedreampolice. Great production. Love that funky bass! Here's a beat I made using the Maschine Conant Gardens expansion. Peace \/ chisel316

    Thanks! I enjoyed your beat too. Love the breakdowns and change-up, but most of all I dig the swing on the hi hats! Peace \/ chisel316

    Help!! Getting that ''sampled sound'' without sampling...

    I'm resurrecting this old thread, because I've based my whole production technique around what I call Faux-Sampled Beats - an original composed hip hop beat that sounds like it uses samples from vinyl recordings. Creating these beats has been the most fun I've had as a musician. I have nothing...

    basslines

    Try to figure out the bass line by playing several octaves higher so you can hear the notes better - this especially holds true for when you're trying to add a sub! Peace \/ chisel316

    Thanks. It was a fun track to work with. Plenty of goodies in there! I liked your flip. Good use of delayed stabs. Those are my favorite! Peace \/ chisel316

    I'll bite. The only sound I used besides the song was a sub. This is a great song/band. Thanks for introducing us to them! http://soundcloud.com/chisel316/play-it-cool-flip Peace \/ chisel316

    Comments... 2GooD Productions - Smoking Kills: I was ready to make a comment of how the keys you used in the intro sound completely out of place with the rest of the beat until I heard that amazing piano! If you replaced the intro keys with that piano, this beat would get an A+ from me...

    I've been rockin' NI Maschine and Komplete 8 since the Summer, so all my new beats are exclusive to Native Instruments VSTs except for the effects and drums. I hear ya about the silence. I usually just drop out one part and not the whole thing like I did in this track. I'll definitely go back...

    Dirty Delores - Nice strings, pads, funky bass and drums. The synth that came in during the chorus was a bit too much for me. Maybe turn down the level a bit. Otherwise, good beat. The Robbery - I loved this beat from the second I pressed play. Love the swing on the drums. I'm still head...

    I made this beat tonight in one hour using Native Instruments Maschine in stand-alone mode. It's my typical Faux-Sampled style. Hope you enjoy it. Comments: odbarq - Nice laid back joint ya got there. Good swing to the beat. The vocal sample got a bit repetitive for my taste, but...

    How many hardcore Ableton users?

    I know I'm resurrecting a two year old thread, but I had to respond. Ableton Live is the heart of my studio. I use it with all my external gear to compose everything from Hip Hop to Trance. The workflow I have in Live is amazing. I use it with my Creamware Pulsar II in XTC mode. It's a...
