    @ListeningJunkie Post individual beats in the showcase and I'll comment there. I'm not looking for spending 6 hours critiquing a list of beats because you posted something wholly positive on something I made. Let alone not posting it in the same place as I do. I know you have the beats posted...

    TAKEOFF

    I really like the base slides. I really like the sweep up the scale with the piano as well. The percussion works with it well. As does the back and forth between the bass and the piano. Mix is pretty good. If I had any complaints about it is that the beat itself sounds pretty muted. Not in...

    Stayin'Alive Hip-Hop Remix

    The mix is really all over the place on this one. I don't want to be harsh, but right from the get go its not enjoyable. The claps in the beginning stick out like a sore thumb, especially when they're taken away immediately. Then they're brought back and sit better in the mix, but almost...

    The reality of takes and comping

    Could be a bunch of things, stage fright being a big one. Could also be his voice coming in over the headphones. I still have a hard time with it. I need to hear it, but I also need to hear my voice outside of what my microphone picks up. I almost always shift my right can off of my ear...

    The reality of takes and comping

    One of the most impressive tracks I've ever heard is even scarier than that. A-F-R-O & NGHTMRE's track Stronger. They went ahead and recorded straight to vinyl so not only did A-F-R-O have to do the entire track in one take, but the entire live band had to do it in the studio at the same time...

    The reality of takes and comping

    I definitely do this to some degree. Definitely not to that extent, but if I find a certain cadence or pronunciation that I don't like in a song I stopped bothering with re-recording whole verses out of convenience and started comping. Never really knew what it was called, and it definitely...

    "Pirates"

    Wasn't sure where this was going, but it dropped real nice. Gotta say this is one of my favorites that I've heard in a while. Change ups keep it interesting for sure, smooth transitions that work perfectly. Good job with the mix too. The 808 cowbell definitely isn't for me, and feels like it...

    The Music Technicians' Union

    Forget the union, its all about the music onion. Every beat has layers

    Meh, well FL 21 just came out the other day and it all works with it right now so I guess I'm good for another 4 1/2 years

    Seems weird. Should just be a VST3 plugin regardless, so I don't get how that would affect things. Then again, what do I know? Its fairly recent that I started buying plugins and shit.

    As far as i understand, the update plan is only a concern if you want access to new features in the plugin, which you get a year free incase something updates before that time is up. For instance, most of my waves stuff i bought in V13, but i updated to v14 free. You still are licenced for...

    I just looked and it looks like the renaissance bundle is still the same 85% off price it was when I first looked at it.

    honestly i might get it anyway because 60 bucks for all of it even though I have a couple things or better versions of them is a much better deal than 30 bucks for just r-vox

    You're just out here to feed my plugin addiction aren't you? I'll check r-vox out. I assume its the waves plugin? Looks like it works similar to R-Bass that I used on this beat actually. Pretty straightforward plugin.

    Loren Gray beat

    I like it, but I agree with @InsideOutBeats that this is definitely in need of something to change it up and keep things interesting. Especially considering the main loop is like half a bar long, or at least is close enough to sound like it is.

    TBD2

    A lot of variety in this one. Has a real mysterious vibe to it. I really like the beat over all. Particularly the way the bass and drums play off eachother and leave a bit of empty space. I've always been a fan of that. If I had any gripes it would be that the synth that comes in at around...

    Thanks dude. Bumping this shit because nobody other than you has commented and I've posted quite a bit of feedback.

    My first one online

    Some creative chops you got there. I like it. I think if I had anything to say is that the bass could stand out a little more, but otherwise I really don't have a lot of complaints with it. Haha funny, I was actually messing around with that exact acapella the other day.

    Not in a Rush

    Hah, space whale fits this perfectly. I like the rich tone you have going here. Feels like an interlude track. Bass is good. Really makes it feel ethereal. I'm not sure I'm a fan of the drums though. The kick is fine, but the hat is too subdued. I don't think it should be "in-your-face"...

    I'm close to finishing my first Project.... looking for tips plz!

    Sorry bro, but I'm not gonna sit here for hours picking through all of that. I like Jammin though. It's fun. Very simple lyrically and not at all something I'd usually listen to, however. If I had to say anything, it seems like it rambles through, saying alot but not really anything at the...
