my first "beatmaking video"
Yeah short and succinct to, so easy to stay engaged. I did this I did that this is what and this is why. Too many videos where I switch off immediately because they take about 10 minutes just to open their plugin, they sound like the most painfully slow and boring people to be around. Like "so... -
Cool new mini Bluetooth midi controller.
Isn't that got mad latency? Or is that just on audio??? -

I hate when you be working on a beat, and it be a really good beat, but you just go, ah it's not feeling like battle excitement type of beat. And now you have to debate whether submitting a good beat maybe pointlessly, or making a whole new one just for battle points- Iron Keys

Question For The ILL Vets (And Noobs)
Same, we'll 2000s. Back when it was considered positive to sound different to the next man. -
Question For The ILL Vets (And Noobs)
Mine's a lot more straight forward, ironically, than 2G's or Fade's romantic stories. I used to read the CD booklets of albums I had. One day I had a bunch of Hip Hop albums where I was like 'oh I reaaally like tracks like this one' 'these tracks to me sound like how i think music should... -

Anyone want their beat mixed?
I usually give em a haircut too! Have a drive function I use, not too sure on what it does, feels like an aggressive gain, just tickle it like 0.20 of a boost. -
Anyone want their beat mixed?
I usually boost em there if lacking. Depends on source sound! Don't ever think I recall hearing a 2good snare and thinking that's weak (unless in jest!) -
Anyone want their beat mixed?
@Jimulacrum The EQ I applied to your snare... Take me back a year ago, I would have had anxiety applying that kind of cut to that frequency range of a snare! But we learn and we grow. Please note the eq cut and the output gain. IRON TIP: if a sound like this snare 'needs more lows'... -
Anyone want their beat mixed?
Really cool beat, really cool music and sounds. I fuck with this. Other than your drums needing a little rescuing - I employed a similar approach to what I did on Dusty's beat - refer to the DRUMS feedback I gave him, very similar. Only different thing here, is I boosted the low on the kick to... -
Anyone want their beat mixed?
So, was really excited to approach this one, as I love the whole NY mixtape scene and early 2000s era. So first thing I needed to address was those DRUMS - like you requested, and as I'd expect. So they were really lacking some weight and punch and as you know, we really want that kick punching... -
Anyone want their beat mixed?
In this mix, first thing I needed to do was just get a nice balance between all the elements. As it's a sparse mix, really important to get the balance right so it sounds cohesive, and make sure it tickles all the right parts of the freq range. In your initial mix, the hat was too loud - I... -
Anyone want their beat mixed?
So far in this mix thread journey... My initial observation on why some of you may struggle with your mixes; Source sounds. - pick good and 'right' sounds Some of those sounds were so rough to work with, it takes some real effort to get them to sound good --- before you even think about mixing... -
