    I'm down for anything that creates constraints, I agree it's more fun that way

    Mine was an experiment (feel like I say that often ha) where I used bucket drumming for the drums. I'm curious if it could support vocals or if it's too experimental, so I'm open to any feedback! thanks guys

    I think I’m gonna ditch my mpc 2500 for Koala

    That's one of the reasons I got the Fire to support my MPK. I sometimes don't even record but use the MPK to tap out a melody from samples I chopped or do some finger drumming, but I then usually just transpose it right to the step sequencer. When it comes to mixing, I don't think I've ever...

    I've commented a few times too where I prefer theme/sample battles. I think it's good because it gives everyone the same time/creative constraints.

    Music keeps me balanced. The 2-3 hours/day of zoning out has been keeping me regulated. I think I'm mental.

    I didn't vote because it came down to a few and honestly I felt like they all deserved a vote. Tough when you can only vote for one!

    little turd > big diarrhea though. I'm actually still very surprised by the lack of swing in new hip-hop.

    Mister Fade, I had to reupload my file but I put REUPLOADED in the file name to distinguish the one to use. :eggplant: p.s. no particular reason for the eggplant.

    I think I’m gonna ditch my mpc 2500 for Koala

    I think my ADHD benefits from a lot going on. The beat I just submitted I actually made in like 4-5 different 20-30 min sessions, to include chopping some samples on my phone via a wav editor app I found haha.

    I'm still working through initiation and trying to get out of Fade's basement, he said I can get out when I win a battle. It's all good though, we've been doing this thing, where, well it's hard to type out and explain. But he calls it "Polishing Mister Fade's shoes."

    I think I’m gonna ditch my mpc 2500 for Koala

    That's what I do right now in FL. Chop in Edison and time stretch right in the playlist. But I'm looking for something where I can snag a loop I like, save it down to a Google Drive, and then when I'm able to sit and work at my desk/DAW load up what I chopped and fine tune as needed. Right now I...

    Do you think Koala could be a good tool to chop samples on the fly? I've been looking for a wav editor or something to chop samples on my phone/tablet whenever I'm listening to music throughout the day and find something I want to flip.

    Stop using reverb on your snare.

    What's the difference between using a freq splitter vs. a high pass curve at 150Hz? I can play around with some sounds later to experiment too but genuinely curious to get folks thoughts on this as I keep tinkering and learning.

    Stop using reverb on your snare.

    I haven't done this but I'll usually EQ the reverb BUS.

    Is my name cool?

    I was called floppy for a bit when I was around 14 yo. Friend of mine peeked through the window when I was about to get my first BJ and saw me when I had a semi. Could be a great time to bring it back.
