Ever try to Re-Make any of your Favourite beats?
I agree its great practice. On the same lines as guitar players playing other peoples stuff all the time or piano players learning other people's sheet music. -

What about Cubase?
I use Cubase for everything even if its rewiring reason through it. I can achieve anything through cubase that any other DAW can and more. Anyone that says its not good seriously doesn't know how to use it. -

Ever try to Re-Make any of your Favourite beats?
One time I was messing with some Orch sounds on a vst and I heard this perfect hit and played it out when I realized it sounded exactly like the strings on In Da Club. Then I finished the whole beat from memory and got it pretty close. IMO it can be harder to remake a beat than start a new... -

so i found out i used the same sample as...
that sucks guy and no offense but I dont like your version at all. The Victory beat is amazing I don't care how much effort went into it as long as it sounds good. That song has always been a favorite of mine. In time you will probably learn that most of the hip hop classics are fairly simple... -

providing a Hook along with a beat for an artist
I think good producers are the ones who have no problem telling the artist what they want to hear or at least give examples to get them in the vibe. I saw a video where ODB was in the studio with Pharrel and he just straight up asks Pharrel "what do you want me to do i'll do it". Once you get... -

FUTURE OF PRODUCTION? Open Labs...
you can download samples online of different hardwares and see first hand how the quality can't be captured in emulation. in hardware these sounds are being actively/dynamically made and are not simple samples being replayed when you hit a key. Trust me I've spent days looking for a substitute... -

You Produce AND Rap...??? WACK....?
When you produce you are spending a lot of time with the beat and you see it differently than rappers that just spit over it after a quick listen. The producer feels the beat out better and knows what should go where. A perfect example of this is Dr Dre or Neptunes tracks. Not only do they... -

Should you stick to one style of hiphop to improve your sound?
personally I think you have to be able to compose to make a decent beat. even if its mostly sampled you still use basic composition knowledge to add drums and bass and whatever else you put into it. I do pretty much only compositions nowadays, it just has more benefits imo as far as not having... -

Mixing the Master Channel
Tricks There are some fairly common tricks to panning I hear a lot of producers doing lately. First off panning should always be done carefully enough to keep the mix symmetrical or even. Hihats don't have to be in the middle as long as they are balanced around the middle. Have a closed hat...
