Sounds in HD Usage Rights...?!
Does anyone know what the usage rights for their sample packs are??? (Including their demo kits) Does anyone know the usage rights for other software instruments/DAWS etc. Wanna make sure I'm fully in my right to release material using the sounds contained in software I use. Much love -
Help analysing time sig / key of track...
Easy, ill brethren. Trying to remix this track, but for the life of me can't figure out the fuck is going on with any of the song's structure. All I can work out is its tempo is 84bpm... Just wondered how y'all cats break down the structure / time signature / key / notes of this... -
Weird instrument drum thing...?¿?
Easy, family. Was talking to some reggae musician at some event, and he told me he plays this instrument called a "kahan"(I think this spelling is dramatically wrong), and I was interested in finding one, or whatnot online, but google searching that word hasn't really proved well for me... -
Sonar / Grizzly VST
Just wondered if anyone here uses 'Grizzly' vst to load their drum samples into... I never usually have a problem with it, have had the odd occasion, but my last few beats I'm getting this problem... After producing for 5(ish) minutes, either sonar (or grizzly <- think is this) is... -
Distortion(drive) / EQ
In a very typical circumstance, is it best to process your signal i.e compression/eq THEN overdrive it... or is it better to add such processing after it??? I know it depends on what you're after, and perhaps if you need to trim / bring out elements of the distortion... but for processing of... -

Good Kick hits ... ???
Where the fuck do motherfuckers get 'em from? I'm tired of downloading / being sent / being given tonnes of 'these are good, use these' kick samples, that blatantly have the sound of a hihat in them too. Samples like that are of very little fuckin' use to me. Where can I find, single... -
The processes of a track/record???
Was talking to some guy today, and he mentioned the following... pre-production production mixing post-production mastering I only really thought it went production -> mixing -> mastering. If anyone can clear up the different stages a track goes through, and what you can... -
Professional Mix Comparisons / Pro Advice???
Just wondered if anyone knows of any professional mixed(but not mastered) tracks that are floating about, to use as comparison??? (surely trying to compare your mix to a professional master isn't totally helpful??) Also, are there any professionals (decent) that have tutorial videos/dvd's... -
Swing/Groove
I've recently started trying to use Groove/Swing function again, but i find it to sound a little un-natural. Also, what parts of your track should stick to the groove? For example, if I had a 70% swing on my kick drum, what else has to follow this? I imagine the bass does? But isn't... -
Sonar X1 Users...
What it do, guys. I been using sonar 8 for a while now as cubase just kept crashing on me, it's kinda fiddly and not quite straight forward when it comes to some things, and midi-editing isn't so easy (i find). I just wondered what Sonar X1 users make of it, the pros and cons of it and... -
compression / gain
Quick question... does the gain control on a compressor affect the whole signal or just the compressed signal? (the signal after the attack setting) If the former... how does this benefit 'fattening' up a kick drum...? surely it'd only be making the tail a lot quieter in comparison to the... -
Compressing a kick... punch or weight
When it comes to Hip-Hop, what is generally the best way to compress your kick drum...? Would it be best to try and emphasis the transient so you get more 'punch', or would it be best to squash the transient down so the body/tail of the kick sound is more level with it... I find with... -
Favoured Pianos and String synth/sampler
Just seeking your guys experiences with string synths/samplers/romplers(whatever the names are) and which ones you think are the best. I'm looking for one that has a lot of flexibility in terms of controlling various elements of the sound, including whether the sounds are equally balanced... -
Layering kick drums...
Kinda curious about this one... Now I've often heard lots of people always say 'yeah if you want a good kick drum just layer like three kicks together', but I've also read somewhere that this is a rookie mistake, and actually not the best thing to do due to things such as phase cancellation and... -
Routing/recording/mixer&computer...(?)
As I haven't done this for a while, and I'm considering buying some equipment as soon as funds allow, I need to remember how to set everything up (which may actually help with decisions on equipment)... What I need to know, and feel free to link to any appropriate videos or threads that... -
Names...
Just curious of how you guys came up with/got your names and the meaning/reasoning behind them. As right now, I'm bugging out over not having a 'name' to produce with. It's putting huge spanner in the works, as I'm not giving out tracks/realising any etc etc until I have a name I'm... -
Finding your own 'style'
How would you guys suggest going about finding your own 'style'. I find my style follows what sounds and feels 'right' to me, of course this is going to be a big problem, if this influence comes from a small number of producers and their style is very obviously theirs... you end up... -
Wonky midi sync
I'm having a really odd issue with my midi sync... It seems to be fine in most other projects I have open, but in my last project, no matter what settings I change, the midi is like half a second slow at responding. I have no clue what's doing it. I've tried to see if it's just the... -
wanting to kick my drums
Right, no matter what I do to my kick drums, layering, eq, compression, whatever, they never hammer. I went through a phase ages ago where they would thump. But I cant for the life of me, no matter what I try/read, get the drum to thump. So yeah, kinda ironic im still asking for yet more advice...
