    YOU MUST TRY THIS!- If you haven't

    Yeah i'd co-sign putting the phaser on the Bass channel only. If you do it to your whole mix then you lose consistency all around. Might get uncontrollably messy. Could be a good idea to put the phaser on a send and then but your bass through that and a small percentage of everything else...

    Low-End

    Something similar to the low end theory is a do it yourself version. If your cutting up the samples and what not, get your filtered version of the sample and do your low end theory but create actually play out the bass notes. This is much much cleaner in my opinion. Sounds much better too...

    copying a sequence on fl5

    hmm. So your microcontroller is being used just as a midi keyboard to control the sounds from within FL? And the problem is that you hit a key and nothing happens, but when you release it the sound starts? Explain what you mean by all the sounds play at once. I dont know if i'll be able to...

    FL Studio Newbie (Advice Needed)

    are you serious? maybe they mean pro by like... buying an actual version of it. I'm still pretty sure they all come with the piano roll you just might not be able to use it in the demo version. I dunno though, that'd be whack if it didnt come with it lol.

    Is there something better then Recycle for chopping?

    cool edit has more things you can do to the audio itself in terms of effects. Recycle and beatslicer automatically chop samples for you and its way easier to manually adjust multiple chops in one sample than it is in cool edit. I've used both.

    yes another swing question

    co-sign. You can get the tightest swings by manually doing each sample/hit/note yourself.

    Ideas for improving local scene

    word, thats tight. I'd suggest running an add of somesort in something that gets good circulation (a magazine of sometype that has to do with music possibly). Are there any record shops or music stores in your area? Go to any of these places (and travel to ones a lil outside your area too)...

    How to have a clean/crisp sound??

    If you can somehow get the sample into audition they have some nice noise/humm cleaning options for dirty samples. Is your sample already filtered and thats why its muffled? try bringing the sample up with compression. Put your threshold around -20db with an attack of 50 and a release of...

    Ideas for improving local scene

    And Relic drops the knowledge. Where are you located? See if theres any local newspapers or classified ads you can get into and run ads from there. Just put the word out "Hip Hop producer seeks MC's or Producers to network with". Are you trying to record people as well or just make the...

    Turntable Set Up Question

    its good stuff. Digging is an art within itself.

    Compression

    So hipnotist, you only use compression on your masterbus? Not individual tracks? I've seen the arguements go for both sides but I go with what I know sounds best to me personally. I add compression to damn near everything. I get a the presence and punch that I'm looking for be it drums or...

    Is there something better then Recycle for chopping?

    All FL users seriously need to consider buying beat slicer. I just got it yesterday and it does exactly what I thought it would do. Beatslicer is to FL as recycle is to reason. It saves time and easier to use than going back and forth using adobe or something. Mad accurate. To the guy who's...

    glad to hear its good. I love music that has that powerful effect your talking about, "if only a million people bought and understood this album". That's good shit right there I can't wait to cop mine.

    Hey Whatsup

    welcome to illmuzik. I think the best way to learn isn't necessarily to ask questions, but doing a lot of listening first. This place has a lot of great information, all you have to do is put effort into finding it and then of course, applying it. Make sure to read forums rules and stuff...

    Compression

    You basically want to capture as much of the sample as you can so you have more of the sample itself to work with. you may have a kick with its ceiling at -2db and your guitar at -3db. It doesn't matter, they can be anywhere. You may find that your hats are much lower at -15db or something...

    Compression

    The ceiling depends. If your doing a final mix (like this is the last process before it goes to cd) than you'd use a limiter which is sort of like a compressor. It doesn't let anything pass a certain point so you can put your ceiling to like -0.2db or something, right next to -0db. Theres...

    Turntable Set Up Question

    Yeah you'll need an audio program to record into. One of the easiest ones is Cool Edit since your starting out. You'll need a decent soundcard (soundcard that came with your computer wont do). Like x-squizet said, get an M-audio card or something along the lines of that an you should be set.
