    Thanks a lot. I never actively chased a DITC sound but I can see what you meant all that time. I'm still firmly set in the boombap style, but I've started a few techstep and trap tracks a few months ago, still experimenting with that.

    @2GooD Productions Appreciate your style, very rich horns that sound good, but not as much with short notes. I hope you dig for stabs because they really are the way to go. The hats in the first track could use some velocity variation and looser swing. The second track is cold, pretty...

    Reality: this is how I code for ILLMUZIK

    Give it a couple more hours and it should start clicking together. FL's one comfy DAW.

    Uhhhhh possibly the best creation ever posted on this site? The video reminds me of the type of crazy shit I'd see on TV late at night when I was younger - whoever directed it had a really creative vision and great ideas with the 3d printing and what not. Very nice to look at, even the...

    I keep getting ads for BeatStars, has anybody used them.

    Airbit is essentially Beatstars, but without the stories of them pushing people's untagged beats onto streaming or whatever the story was.

    Pete Rock - Return of The SP1200

    I remember the stuff he did on Instagram, even downloaded some of the better ones. I don't think any of them appear here. Even some of the best stuff from Future Flavas isn't on the tape, think he's saving it for later.

    Cassette by WavesFactory

    That's amazing! I was actually thinking of incorporating a tape deck I've had for a long time into my setup and taping my beats or just certain tracks through. Convincing sound too!

    Gang Starr - One of the Best Yet (2019)

    As far as posthumous rap albums go, this one's among the better for sure. "What's Real", "Business Or Art" and "Lights Out" are on daily rotation on my phone. I'm just glad it even got released due to Solar being such a dick.

    What's up with "Beat Tape"?

    It's an interesting holdover for sure. Even the term "mixtape" has changed multiple meanings - from someone's own "playlist" tape, to the old hip hop definition of a DJ's mix dubbed onto tape and then an artist's promotional project that's not really an album. Not sure about how "beat tape"...

    Sennheiser HD280 Pro or BeyerDynamic DT 990 Pro

    Have you been able to try any of them out?

    My 4th Beat Tape so Far...

    FL's built in transient processor is great, but locked down to trial mode on my copy. I've found a free alternative called just Transient that does the same thing. For filtering I use FL's built in parametric EQ 2 - very slick equalizer with a neat view of the whole frequency spectrum and...

    My 4th Beat Tape so Far...

    Thanks, I appreciate it. My setup is simple, Cool Edit Pro 2 for slicing, Audacity for minor editing, FL 20 for putting it all together into beats. Felt like an idiot for taking so long to learn the transient processor - that's the key to punchy drums, not just good sample selection. Also an...

    Sup bangers!

    That's what I thought until about a year ago. Sure, you can click everything in, but pads get beats going quite a bit faster.

    My 4th Beat Tape so Far...

    The best I've made in the last month or so... enjoy!

    Finished Beat It Up! - Battle #78

    I don't fuck with the sound design on beat 1. Those harmonica sounding voices sound like something out of a Nintendo 64 game.

    @Matt-D The drums are just a touch too wonky, but I like the instrumentation here. Perhaps you should tweak the vocals a bit to be in tune on certain syllables (0:46, 0:52, some more spots). I don't know the original song, but this is a great beat, I definitely hear a lot of improvement...

    New Beat Tape Out!

    Thanks a lot, expect another one dropping real soon.

    Showcase - September 16-22, 2019

    @say nada music Good job with the beat, but the drums should overall punch more and be more pronounced. Interesting choice of song to remix because it's more of a club track but whatever. @2GooD Productions These tracks sound a bit more like TV or movie music than regular hiphop, but I like the...

    Studio Headphones (what kind do you have?)

    AKG K702, planning to get something like M40x for when it gets noisy outside.
