    Mixing question in FL

    How do you know what your final mix level is in FLStudio if the master track in the mixing console is only telling you what the mix coming "in" is peaking at and not the final mix going out? If you add any effects to the master track, is there a db meter that shows if I'm still at -3 or -6db as...

    Do your prefer sampled or real-time hip hop production

    sampled all the way. you can't beat an old dusty loop from vinyl and a nasty drum break to match.

    struggle, endurance, or children. i'm not looking for a big list, just throw out a few songs that come to mind. i need to add some cuts to the hook for a project i'm working on and those 3 words describe the theme of one of the songs. i'd prefer to keep it real hip hop, underground type...

    FL Skins

    will these work on version 5? also, how do you install it, and how do you retain the default skin if you ever want to go back?

    Flea Market Diggin Today

    i copped 20 records at a flea market saturday. found alot of good stuff, esp some 60's and 70's rock tunes (allman brothers, led zepplin, etc). flea markets can be a very good source for cheap vinyl.

    Garageband is a great program

    we use it to record all of our tracks and do some mixing and mastering. it's a dope program. i create the beats in flstudio and then my best friend/emcee loads it into gb, and takes it from there. he's made some nice beats with it too.

    Boosey & Hawkes - "Library", sample used by Jay-Z

    btw, the jay-z track is "so ghetto".

    Boosey & Hawkes - "Library", sample used by Jay-Z

    just curious, after listening to this sample, did they have someone replay the sample or was it taken directly from the original and altered using software? i can't figure out how they got it to sound the way they did on jay-z's track.
