    Any Graffers?!

    Cool concept. I dig it. I graff but I wouldn't be able to help ya I don't think. Haven't picked up a pen in over a year graffwise.

    Compression

    It depends on how many bands you have in your multiband compressor. If you want to leave the high's uncompressed or lightly compressed than you would have a lower threshold and a lower ratio (say -12 threshold and 3:1 compression). Thats a very general example, but you'd look at how the...

    Compression

    No. Multiband compression is good actually, depending on mix to mix i guess. It lets you compress certain frequencies at different amounts. You can compress a certain frequency range that is comming in really loud and leave another frequency range (typically highs) lightly compressed. If it...

    Compression

    the threshold is based on where the meat part of your sample is. You basically lower it to the point so compression only takes place on the part of the sample that needs to be compressed, but the rest of the time (when the sample isn't really loud) then it runs through uncompressed. I'm...

    Crazy Breakdancer

    word hardboiled. Breaking is far from dead. It's definitely went underground though, it's hard to find unless you know someone who knows where to look, where its happenin at. Tight video, i seen this one way back. When the second guy does the hand stuttering.... Wooow. Kid on the piano...

    yes another swing question

    I don't believe so.... but you can manually align each hit by turning quantize off and arranging it in the piano roll. Much better than the gridlock sound. Peace

    Dirty it up

    Agreed. If you can get your hands on a 12-bit sampler just run your composed stuff through that. Or resample like Haze said. You can also run your composed stuff out to your tape deck and record it. Then record it back in from your tape deck with a lil punch and hiss. Peace

    How to go about selling your beats?

    Definitely read books. Read as many as you can actually and keep on pushing to learn new concepts, music techniques and understand all aspects from the business side to the music side. You really have to have the mentality for this if you want any chance of success. If this is going to be...

    Reverb On Drums

    I always use reverb. Snares, hihats, samples, etc. Don't use reverb on lower frequency samples though. Aside from adding reverb to snares and hihats, you should try putting all of your drums into an auxilary buss (or send buss or whatever) and put a 100% wet reverb on it. Make the reverb...

    FL Studio Newbie (Advice Needed)

    www.flstudio.com They have a very useful breakdown of the differences on the site. All of the FL versions come with the piano roll, but check the FL site and you'll find the comparison chart they have there.

    Compressin' and Reverbib' vocals.

    What platform are you using to mix? I usually add slight compression, roll off some of the bass and send the vocal to 3 auxilary (send) busses. One is a heavily compressed buss, one is 100% wet reverb and the other is 100% wet chorus. I'd use some type of chorus plug-in obviously, but it's...

    New Big L album !!!!

    word!! thats real nice to hear actually, I agree with you Fury. I wouldn't trust something as delicate as L's unrealed acapellas to anyone else. Prem should do it nicely an i'm lookin forward to that. Peace!!
  17. 5th Sequence

    For Those that make 5+ beats a day, tell us your beatmaking process, please!!

    That's definitely stretchin your skills (and sanity) too far. 150 beats is horribly unrealistic bro and they will not only all sound the same, but you will like 10 at most from that whole batch. Trying to force that number, or assigning certain time slots to work on certain beats and then...

    I'm looking for LEGAL Music Services

    What exactly do you mean by "legal" and what exactly do you mean by "music services". Sampling is illegal if you don't have permission from the owners of the copyright (which means you have to pay them to obtain that). If you rearrange that sample, filter it, mangle it and pitch it up or down...

    copying a sequence on fl5

    I don't think you mean three copies of the same channel, but rather 3 copies of a 1 bar pattern so u get a resulting 4 bar pattern? What you should be doing is actually filling out the rest of the bars. You may not want to and are looking for an easier way to fill it out but you really just...
