    Melody v.s. Beat

    both equally important imo i usually start with an extremely simple beat (to use instead of metronome) then make an excellent melody and then add a beat which meshes with the melody precisely its nice

    Hearing the Lows

    damn, i want to get a sub so bad, but seems pointless now. it will at least be good for just listening to music tho right, even if its not 100% accurate? all those crappy pc speaker systems come with subs and they sound pretty aight

    Wow, only a few songs posted so far. This was a tricky song to flip for some reason, but I spent a while trying different things and really like my results: On Tha Fader lo-fi URL: http://www.soundclick.com/util/getplayer.m3u?id=4406961&q=lo hi-fi URL...

    Swing?

    i think the placement of the snares has a lot to do with it; like if you put them a few tics after the 2 and 4 of the beat it sounds more "relaxed" and if you put them a few tics before the 2 and 4 it sounds more driving

    drum solo techniques on mpc/trigger finger/etc

    okay, i just got my trigger finger a few months ago, and having been messing around making some pretty good drum beats on it. usually tho it takes me a while to get the drum pattern exactly how i want it and i have to build it up in layers- like start with the kick and snare, then add high hat...

    Hearing the Lows

    ^^^^^ i was worried when i heard all this talk about a room being "too small" for a sub - b/c my studio is pretty small and i was wanting to get one - but then i found this article, and apparently the too small thing is a myth. heres an exerpt: " BIG WAVES, SMALL ROOMS There is a common...

    How long does it take for Production on a Track

    yeah, really depends on the track for me, and how much time i WANT to spend working on it. i could put something nice together in like a half hour if i'm lucky, but a lot of times i get stuck making the drums EXACTLY on time, or programming a synth sound, or finding ways to mix up the arrangement.

    Compression with Reason

    yeah i agree with sanova, can't get the reason compressor to sound nice. sometimes it makes the drums really pop, but sometimes it kills their sound... guess i need more practice or something

    trigger finger with reason

    yeah, i've got trigger finger, i'm liking it a lot. make sure you have reason 3 tho, b/c its a LOT easier to assign the knobs and stuff with that; i was using 2.5 for a while and having mad trouble with it

    Ableton Live 6

    i've got live 5- liking it a lot, not sure if i'll need to upgrade. the new sampler does sound pretty nice, but costs extra. i heard it also has new effects, like "tube distortion" and a 8 band eq (instead of just four). if youve got 4, going to 5 is nice b/c its got the "beat repeat" effect...
