    Beat Fight #433

    @Armani - mysterious, dark, and almost a bit folksy. There's a level of suspense here that's quite nice and got me to sit up in my chair. That said, I was waiting to see where that suspense went. You did a clever build towards the end dropping out the drums, but the pay off was a few scratches...

    @Armani - I appreciate going outside the realms of convention and the use of unique/interesting sounds. Snare is perfect level of moist lol. I don't quite care for that kick though. This intellectual, industrial stuff isn't my vibe - BUT - as I listened a couple times there was one thing I did...

    @Tomblr - These drums sound perfect! Nice punch, grit, and weight. That kick tone is really nice. I love the dreamy, ephemeral quality of this beat - but still has a grittiness to it and fits quite nicely on 'traditional' boom-bap drums. The woodwinds and the little guitar slide/licks, really...

    @DJ Excellence - This is flawless. I love that round, synthy bass used on this. Moreover, how well it was used - as a rhythmic accent. All the elements of this fit together nicely and work to build a very enticing piece of music. It builds, wanes, evolves, and continues to keep the listener...

    Let's go @Iron Keys !!!! Really digging this beat. Nice bass line. Juicy fucking bass tone too! This has both an old school and 2001 Dre vibes, which is a cool blend. Like @DJ Excellence the keys and strings are both really dope. Good luck!

    It looks good, sounds great, but costs $3,500. Personally, I think it's a bit pricey, although I understand that true analog ain't cheap. Regardless, if money wasn't an object, I would've scooped this already.

    Beat Fight #434

    Yeah, that's what I tried to do...but def missed the mark. It's the NI Rickenbacker and Massive's Trees (sub-bass) preset. I like the tone and texture of the Rick, but felt it needed some extra weight (hence the sub-bass).

    Very likely, It's two basses layered together. I had to bring the bass bus all the way down as it was far too strong in the mix. Will check and see what I had going on when I get back home.

    Thanks @2GooD Productions - will work on getting the compression. I was trying to get the kicks and bass to play nicely and was struggling with it.

    Sampling Method Tips

    Oh, this is perfect world scenario. The majority of the time I get lazy or distracted and just raw dog a sample. Also, all these steps can kinda be done concurrently. So maybe it’s not that convoluted.

    Sampling Method Tips

    I probably have an overly convoluted sampling process, but none-the-less, here it is... Sample Prep: Load my sample into either Maschine or Logic then chop main sections: Intro, Verse, Chorus, Bridge I like doing this even if I don't need the whole section Pitching Pitch the sample up or...

    @P.A.T. - The thick gliding bass with the delayed plucky synth is brilliant! I like that you teased it, then brought in back in proper. Nice intriguing arrangement, it really made me WANT to listen for what was coming next. Even the little echo/delay on the high synth stab does a lot to add to...
