    Tutorials 6 Ways You Can Improve Your Mixes And Make Them Awesome

    Lol I actually listened in on a class with the same dude teaching in the 2nd video and he says to mix in mono and to never use panning as a means of trying to create space within the mix since most people listen to music on mono systems. He pretty much summed it up saying, if your mix doesn't...

    Production As A Job

    I'm gonna have to somewhat disagree with OG on this. It really depends on what you want to do within music as a profession. Do you want to be a producer, a songwriter, an engineer, or do you want to venture over to the business side of it? There's a bunch of possible professions to choose from...

    FL Studio - Saving Samples

    I don't have an issue with playing it back. I have an issue with attempting to save the sample with the pitch and time stretch changes I made. When I do try to save it with those changes, FL reverts it back to the sample prior to the changes made. I'll try out the method illest mentioned when I...

    FL Studio - Saving Samples

    After taking a 2 bar slice of a sample and dropping it into my channel rack, I time-stretched and pitch shifted it to prep it to load into SliceX. When I right-click and go to Save as and save it to my hard drive and open it back up again, it loads without the time-stretching and pitch-shifting...

    Snare/Kick Techniques

    It sounds like a mix of drum sample choices and cutting out the high frequencies of those samples to give it that "soft" texture.

    Acapella cleaning (if possible)

    acapellas4u.co.uk Check out this site to see if they have the acapella on there. If not I can look through my hard drive after work to see if I've got it from some of the acapella packs I've downloaded and send it to you.

    Appreciate it fellas. @Matt-D - The texture of the drums are dope. Not really feelin the spacey arpeggiated lead. There's a bit too much going on around the 1:10 mark. I do like the vibe of this though. @Jazzdrip - Those drums are heavy. Really well mixed. The flip is dope man. Wish the track...

    @S3oulC1ty - The way you mix and play your drums and bass remind me so much of 9th Wonder. Shit is dope man. That sample is fire. Those reverse chops haha! @Beautiful Noise - Idk if you were going for that effect, but the drums are packing no punch to me. Try layering them up a bit. Now that I...

    Music Theory Videos

    Same here - haven't messed with samples in months. Something about creating something from scratch has a different vibe that I've been caught on.

    a question about a certain sound...

    It sounds like a basic synth pad played as chords. Maybe they cut some of the high frequencies of it for it sound a bit "softer."

    Music Theory Videos

    https://www.youtube.com/user/Rhaptapsody/videos I've been trying to learn music theory recently and came across this guy's videos. I've gone through maybe like half of them so far, but they've been pretty helpful in understanding the basics in a super user-friendly and simple way. You guys...

    Haha I know what you mean. That's always the biggest problem when trying to kill out certain habits to make way for new ventures. Honestly, it's something that's personal to everyone since it's more of a mental limitation more than anything. It's hard to give advice on how to overcome it since...
