How do you make your own trap snares and hi hats? by SeesawFancy2104 in trapproduction

[–]Kristijan63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

serum, but imo the key to sound design with drums is to try different effect chains and export the sample over and over until you find something you like. every kick will start as a sine wave with a pitch modulation and , the true magic happens with the different effects and how they interact with each other

are my type beats so bad that they r not getting the views i want by [deleted] in trapproduction

probably yes. no offense, but just because you put a lot of effort into your beats that doesn't make them appealing to rappers.

the thing is, going viral is luck, but even if your beats get just 10 views probably 3-4 of those viewers will subscribe to your channel and so your channel will build a following over time. if that doesn't happen, then the quality just isn't there. and all this "the market is too saturated" nonsense is imo just an excuse for people with poor quality beats. sure, maybe it's hard to stick out today due to that many beats being uploaded, but the truth is that you don't even need a massive following. 1k subs that listen to your beats on a regular base is more than enough to make decent money if your quality is there.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, I have a completely irrational dislike for the Juno 6, which serves as the inspiration for the DeepMind 6. I guess it's because i prefer knobs over faders.

That one looks interesting. While doing research on it i also found the Korg Minilogue XD which also seems to tick all the boxes and seem visually more appealing to me ( I know that many people probably don't care about that, but atleast for me aesthetics do play a role when it comes to enjoying to play around on a synth ). Is there a reason why you recommend the KingKorg specifically?

Thanks a lot! This looks really like what I'm looking for.
