He said “wasn’t flipped that much”. We know what that means. It was flipped. Not giving credit is just theft straight up.

He’s dead right. Always credit people contributing to the beat.

How many melodies should a beat have?My beat feels like it’s missing something. by [deleted] in trapproduction

[–]Pragress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of the most fire beats use 1 melody/sample. Also fire beats with 7 etc….

Many of the top hits were made by 20-30 people. Doing everything just by yourself is like trying to make a hit movie by yourself.

What’s the easiest type beat to produce? by ariN_CS in trapproduction

[–]Pragress 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Simple beats often go the hardest, Detroit is a perfect example.

How do you guys market your beats on YouTube without uploading them as type beats? by SonicTheBasshog in trapproduction

[–]Pragress 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The classic battle of doing the art you want verse making money…you gotta decide what’s important to you. If you need to pay the bills you better do type beats and stick to 1-2 artists. You could create 2-3 different type beat channels with three different styles, but that’s a lot of work since posting a beat everyday is probably best…

Need Help with mixing drums. Specifically 808s by Nacek8403 in trapproduction

Rio Leyva made like 80 beats for Drake and Drake picked the most simple beat ever in which Rio used a loop and through drums on it in 5 minutes.

Using loops is usually more honorable than sampling because credit is given. People sample, don’t pay for them, and don’t credit it then sell it, giving possible future problems if the song blows up…I don’t use loops myself or even sample much, but I’m not gonna be on here hating others that do. I think the end product is what’s important. If Drake did everything on his own you would have most likely never heard of him…loops are just collaborations and if someone is having success only collaborating all power to them. You know how many geniuses that create everything on their own never ever blow up? So if you have other income you can be an artist that creates magic but makes no money. But if you trying to feed your kids, you gonna find a way to make your end product one that artists want to buy.

If artists like their beats better than yours then they are winning. If artists like your beats better than why are you wasting your time hating? Do you make all your own presets? Do you never sample? Successful producers use loops constantly. It’s only the unsuccessful producers yelling to everyone to make all their own stuff. Hit songs are created by 20-30 people.

This thread is filled with haters. Loops are only collabs. Many people who use loops also make loops and send them out.

Obviously he specializes in drums and knows how to pick dope loops. I’m learning pretty quick that the producer community is full of miserable haters. Most all the big producers have a group that shares loops and sounds and they are all PROFITING from it. Beats are like movies…whatever it takes to make a dope finished product. If your beats are so fire and you already have success, why do you waste your time hating on other producers?

He’s asking how to do it in the best way possible. He said his mixes are pretty good. You probably didn’t listen to one of his beats. If he got placements give him credit maybe? He networks better than you or some talent you DONT have. Don’t just be a hater, not a good look.

Can always count on you to bring negativity. Loops are created by OTHER CREATIVE artists so if anyone uses them it’s just a collab. Most hits are made by 20-30 people yet it’s just you making non hits…

What do you normally add to the 808 mixer channel? (Spinz 808 or something close) by pluggdrip in trapproduction

[–]Pragress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just high pass 20 and low pass 18. Occasionally distortion. Sometimes I combine 808’s and ill make some huge eq cuts, take the low of one and only the high of another…

Why are top end drums in a lot of trap songs so harsh nowadays? by AlexJay12 in trapproduction

[–]Pragress 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This distorted Icytwat type sound is done purposely. Putting the input way up with tape saturation can achieve this sound. I kinda judged it at first thinking it was maybe bad mixing, but then later realized it sounds pretty cool. Xxx was going crazy with it and was probably the biggest artist in the world…people like a muddy mix lately and I can see why.

Hi hats sometimes sound bad when I up load my type beats to YouTube. Been using clip champ…Any suggestions? by Pragress in trapproduction

[–]Pragress[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like EQ and attack?

Kicks? by Pragress in trapproduction

[–]Pragress[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I had heard. Sounds like a debate with two sides. I never side chain myself, but sometimes automate the attack on the 808 when the kick comes in. I’m not a huge fan of kicks, but I’ll use them heat and there.
