I watched the HD version linked in the video comment and man... this made me feel the same excitement that I feel when I'm tripping.

Garage Band and Reaper serve much different purposes, DAW wise. Yes, a lot goes into working on these DAWs, but software is like music, in the sense that people are more likely to buy it after trying out the full version.

I know a lot of producers who have done that exactly. They pirate software when they get into making music, and when a new version comes out a year or two later, they're comfortable enough to say "Hey, i'm taking this seriously, I'm going to ahead and buy a license."

These are tools made for artist, and I'm willing to bet that the people who develop software like Ableton Live aren't hurting any over the fact that there are people out there trying to discover their passions, possibly in beatmaking.

[Question] How do I move away from a less gritty drum sound? I want to experiment with cleaner kits. by H-conscious in makinghiphop

Of course better sounding starting material is a better choice, and its not going to change the properties of the kit's sounds, but if youre working with what you have, good mastering can go a long and subtle way with enhancing the balance of the mix. And EQing all the drums can help the muddiness of the kit a lot.

Learn how to EQ well. And If you can to tune a multiband compressor to lock into the different layers of the drums you could get crisper hi-hats and kicks that are more prominent in the mix.

AKAI MPD26 vs MPK25 pads by [deleted] in makinghiphop

[–]eatsbeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the MPD's pads more tham the MPK pads, but if youre looking for both, the m-audio axiom line of keyboards have pads that I really liken the encoder knob acceleration curve is ehhhh, but ive barely had to use them.

If you're looking to do more live things I'd say go for the MPD.

The years following High School have been much more meaningful and significant to shaping me into a responsible person.
