    Spraycan Sample

    anyone have or know where i could find a sample or more likely a wav of the sound of a spraypaint can being shaken and sprayed? kind of random i know but i think it would make a sick sound effect on some tracks.

    Panning instrument to both sides

    no doubt...i had thought out of inexperience that if i only put one channel on each side the sound wouldn't be 'full' enough, like i'd be cutting it in half and panning, but i realized you just compensate by raising the volume.

    for the cats that bought the platinum refills...

    Gradually changing the pitch of a sample

    Anyone know how to progressively lower the pitch of a wav sample in FL 6 or Sound Forge? What i'm talking about is like if you've got a record spinning on a turntable and you slowly slow it down, so it gradually decreases in pitch, that kind of thing...real popular right now with vocal samples...

    Panning instrument to both sides

    panning is used to locate things in your mixes. you keep drums/bassline center and pan the rest of your instruments- if you don't, you're gonna have a hard time separating sounds and it can confuse people's ears. yes, you can just pan something to one side. but that gives it a hollow sound...

    Why I am i always using the minor keys?

    appreciate all the feedback guys. my bad on calling them minor keys, i just meant sharps and flats...classic i hear what ur sayin, i'm just starting to learn the piano with Carl Humpries' book but learning progressions is a major goal of mine for the next 6 months or so.

    Why I am i always using the minor keys?

    I've noticed something odd about damn near every beat I make...i find myself using the black keys on my piano to compose instead of the major chords on pretty much everything. I mean nobody has complained about how my stuff sounds it just strikes me as odd that I always think the minor sound...

    Young Buck. On Dr.Dre's Level? /Producer/

    i disagree. alchemist, denaun porter, hi-tek, focus, all of these dudes who work for aftermath, they have access to these kits and studios. do you hear hi tek making dr.dre shi*? nah, and thats coming from a huge hi-tek fan... by the way, dre mixes and masters on the fly. most of his...

    Panning instrument to both sides

    I got a piano i want to put around 25% L and R in my mix, and I'm wondering if there's any way to tell reason to do this without duplicating the NNXT and using the mixer to pan each to one side at 25%. anyone know?

    Mastering Question.

    yeah man if you are gonna do it yourself, i'd definitely buy at least a book or two just to get you to a point where you're comfortable. also, relic is right- har bal is a beast. as a bunch of other people said theres no sub for professional mastering, but har bal helps a lot. also man...

    Simple/Dre Style drums

    yeah i layered a 808 kick with a punchy kick on this cause i noticed its hard to get that thump out of those real punchy style kicks he uses. i hear what you're saying on the ambiance though, i think that was what i was really trying to figure out. like this dude's drums are so, so simple, but...

    Simple/Dre Style drums

    yeah thats some solid advice, after going back and listening to some of his stuff i see what you mean. right now my kicks are right on the first line of each measure of the piano roll (like right on the 1, 3, 5, 7), should i shift those just a bit over to the right also? thanks for all the...

    Simple/Dre Style drums

    i've noticed dr.dre, scott storch, rotem, a lot of the west coast guys will often use very simple drum patterns on their beats. especially dre, sometimes its just K-S-K-S, etc I'd like to do this with some of my beats, i think keeping the drums this simple is nice for some compositions...

    Waves VST plugins in FL

    Does anyone else have trouble with the Waves SSL plugins opening in FL? I'll admit im using bootlegged software (i know this is the price i pay for doing that...), but whats strange is I've found maybe 5 different packages of waves stuff, from the L3 plugin alone to the entire diamond bundle...
