    Hey I got an Idea

    Hmm actually what i was thinkin with my reply to the post is, if we post the beat, and post the beat with lyrics that we recorded, then we could get feedback on the production teqniques used while recording and mixing.. not a network for selling beats. people should be hittin the streets in...

    Hey I got an Idea

    sure i say post it in the showcase. but only if you want feedback on the beat as well. recording vocals is a HUGE part of the production process. i might just do the same if everone is cool with that

    Delay time

    ok ive been using delay as a sort of echo effect forever now. but I alwayz just mess with the delay time till it sounds good. now i figure there must be a formula to find the time that i should set my delay for. for example if my beat is 89 bpm then each eighth note runs for a specific time. so...

    Techniques you noticed in songs...

    yah i put an 808 kick behind tons of thangs. its a layering thing for sure. i hit the 808 on the one and place the first hit of the sample(s)on the one, along with the first hit of the bassline. it gives it a big hit with lots of bounce.
