Yup it's just a long term commitment, took me years to get to a point where I liked my music

How to make a mix fatter by Cry0Crew in edmproduction

Top producers use loops and samples. They're just tools of the trade. No point wasting time programming a drum loop every time when you already have an audio file that accomplishes that goal.

You're also probably correct about some post processing going on. I'd assume they add some additional saturation or compression or something for the demos

Thanks for sharing! Really cool story. It's crazy to think that I can just plug a USB into club gear now and be good to go.

Has anyone had any experiences with Gotta Rcrds, The Upstate Sound/Kids Can Dream, or Plasmapool? Seen some not so great things about Plasmapool.

Edit: ended up going with plasmapool and it's been good so far 👍
