How often do you make beats?
I haven't had time to sit down and finish a beat (all the way through mixing) for a while now cuz of work, but I always try to at least get some ideas down every day. I need something to relieve my creative juices that are being capped while at work so I've got a bunch of "skeletons" within my... -
Compressor Plugin
The ratio knob on that DCAM is hard as fuck to turn lol I do like the Rough RIder though. Appreciate it man - you're always coming through with the resources. "thedreampolice, back at it again!" -
Compressor Plugin
Is there a free compressor plugin out there that kind of mimics the layout of the stock one that's available in Pro Tools? I'm pretty much looking for something that shows the input level, output level, and gain reduction like the stock Pro Tools compressor does. I came across the one linked... -

CreativeLive Online Classes
Word I did as well but after understanding why was huge for me. Conceptually, I've already got a better grasp of how to sonically approach my mixes now. Just gotta put it into practice haha. Sound is made up of frequencies. EQ is a tool that helps cut or boost specific frequencies of a sound... -
CreativeLive Online Classes
I'm almost done going through the EQ class. Pretty dope learning experience and perspective on the topic. It's already helped reground my foundation on what, how, and why EQ should be used. Before, I had no clue what I was doing and experimenting through trial and error. Trial and error is... -
Looking to get back into the game after a long break.
I never really understood the whole software vs. hardware debate and how people can be extreme towards either end. I think it mostly came from old hardware heads not wanting to accept the change/introduction of software to the mainstream that was taking place during that time. Why not make... -
FL Studio 12.3 new features
I love FL Studio cuz of the lifetime free upgrades when you actually purchase it, but yeah, shit has been buggy as hell. Been experiencing a lot more crashes lol. But yeah that real time audio stretching feature is dope. Long overdue. -
What BPM do you usually work with?
I'm in the same boat as crog. Ever since I've gotten back into beat making, I've been working in double BPM. I feel like, at least with FL Studio and the way it's sequencer is set up, it makes it easier to be a lot more creative with your drums and messing with those off beat hits to get a... -
Showcase - August 8-14, 2016
@eelxb - Appreciate the feedback. I've always heard people mention sidechaining, but I never really fully understood what it exactly does/how to use it properly so I stayed away from it. I'll look up some shit on it and try to apply it going forward. Listening to your track now...digging the...- Koey

Showcase - August 8-14, 2016
@NONONSENSEBEATS - Digging the drums on this. That touch of reverb on the snare is nice. I like the mellow vibe of this. Not a fan of those strings that come in around the :40 mark. The tonality of it seems a bit off from the rest of the beat. @Chi K.O! - Rhythmically this is cool. The piano...- Koey

Radio Frequencies Being Picked Up in Studio Monitors
I've been hearing some J. Biebs come through my speakers haha so I just assumed it was radio signals. And yeah, I'm on the top floor of my apartment building. -
Radio Frequencies Being Picked Up in Studio Monitors
I mean if I turn down my volume I can barely hear it. It's a manageable situation. It's just annoying as fuck knowing that the problem is still there. Still having issues with my "song bar" flickering while I'm playing a track though. -
Radio Frequencies Being Picked Up in Studio Monitors
Well looks like it's time to move out lol cuz this shit is still not working even with trying the new Focusrite Scarlett that came in today - still picking up radio frequencies. On top of that, my FL Studio all of a sudden keeps crashing after I installed the Focuswrite software lol. I'm just so... -

True. It kinda threw me off when I went back to make sure I voted for the right beat/listen back to some of the submissions.- Koey

I didn't actually end up submitting this go around, but dope comp! I narrowed it down to 3, but still was tough to choose among that smaller group. I just realized when I refreshed the page...do the numbers associated with the beat change?- Koey

Radio Frequencies Being Picked Up in Studio Monitors
Appreciate it fellas. Hopefully this does the trick lol. If it does, gonna be selling my Lexicon away. If not, then time to move lol. -
Radio Frequencies Being Picked Up in Studio Monitors
I'm okay with something between $200-$500, but I'd rather stay closer to mid and lower part of that range. Not exactly sure what you mean by that. The Furman power conditioner has a light on that says "Protection Ok." Not sure if that's what you're asking about.
