    swing+drums

    so if hi hats make the swing, lets say i drop a hi hat on every other beat in the step sequencer, then export that to piano roll, should i just slide all of them over to the right a little off beat? is that what you guys mean?

    Place to Research best software

    this is perfect man. wish they had live but this is way better than anything I've seen so thanks a lot. should i also be looking at pro-tools M powered? I dont know why but I always thought of pro tools as something you bring your beats into after making them (like in a studio for...

    Place to Research best software

    Right now I'm using FL 6 and Reason and since I've been getting serious about my production recently, I'm starting to think about making a switch down the road to a more hardcore DAW (and that isnt anything against FL, I know its a solid program. but it ain't logic..) I'm not gonna ask the...

    Toning down combinator

    This weekend I made a pretty sick beat using about 5 NNXT patches together in the combinator, and now I need to put the finishing touches on this track and I've realized I just can't get any solid drums on it because the low end of my mix is extremely muddled from all of these instruments...

    General 808 tips

    So I know a lot of this comes down to experimenting on my own, which I'm doing, but at the same time, just thinking about how much the 808 has been used over the past decade I'm assuming there are some pretty agreed upon techniques by now for getting the sounds a little nicer and not as standard...

    Compression before or after EQ?

    If i'm compressing an instrument like a synth from reason, should I be Eq'ing before or after? Or both? On the same note, if I'm boosting an 808 kick around the 100hz range but I also want to add some punch, should I compress before or after eq?

    Compensating w/o Near Field Monitors

    i hear that, but part of my question that i should have clarified is that if i could just understand how my speakers color my mixes better, i wouldn't need monitors and I could get something more important you know a lot more about this than I do, but one thing I will say is, every producer...

    Compensating w/o Near Field Monitors

    Right now I don't have the money for a set of good NFM's although I should in a few months, so I'm working off of some JBL Monster computer speakers (the 3 piece set w/ subwoofer). The sound is pretty solid but I know these speakers colorize my sound and one of the things I'm wondering about is...

    Suffle/Flam Hi Hats in Step sequencer/PR

    So I just got done watching Sanova's what you know remake video, and one of the things he did in reason got me thinking about FL. he was showing how in the redrum program in reason, which is kind of similar to the step sequencer, there's function hwere you can tell the program to flam or...

    T.I. What You Know - Reason 3.0 by Sanova

    T.I. What You Know - Reason 3.0 by Sanova

    yo sanova just saw this video, its sick man. nice job. think i may have to stop rewiring and start just making my beats in reason by the way, i guess its late now, but did you know most of the song is an interpolation of a roberta flack song? someone just told me that a month or so ago and I...

    Fl/ReWire Maxing out horribly

    CPU seems to be fine, I got a brand new dual processor 3.2 ghz mac book pro so I doubt its that (1 gig of ram also). You know what it may be? I didn't realize hard drive speed could be the issue, because I was running a couple refills off of a CD. would it make sense if that were the problem...

    Fl/ReWire Maxing out horribly

    I have no idea what is going on because I have a ASIO sound card and keep my levels low, even when I rewire, but when I started working on this beat last night, once I combinated 3 or 4 synths in Reason, every 2 or 3 measures when FL repeats the basic pattern I'm working on, it makes this...
