    Software Samplers: What, Why & How?

    @2GooD Productions Pretty cool use of Cubase’s built in capabilities. I’ll so something similar, occasionally, in Logic too. Flex Time and audio editing functions are pretty powerful, it is again, kinda cumbersome - but I agree, it’s probably the most control you can get over the raw...

    Beat This! Competition - August 6-7, 2025

    I've got an 80s Synthwave playlist going while I chip away at some admin work today. Let's see if I can pull some inspo from it for the battle.

    Software Samplers: What, Why & How?

    @Iron Keys - I'm not sure if I want to add/change my DAW but I'll check out the Atom. @konceptG - I've always been intrigued by those old rack samplers. Not sure if I'd actually have the patience to use them though lol. To your point, I really think I just need some of that hands-on hardware...

    Software Samplers: What, Why & How?

    Software Samplers: What, Why & How? Background While I don’t often make sampled beats, the sampler is still an integral tool in my music making tool-kit. Often times I’ll load short composed loops into the Maschine sampler and chop them up to see if I can contort and squeeze out a new idea...

    I might dust off the MicroKorg and TB-03 for this one! Too bad I loaned my JU-06A to a friend.

    SHOWCASE: July 27 - August 3, 2025

    @attila This nirvana mash up has me conflicted lol. I mean it fits, and both source pieces are dope…but I don’t know. As a mashup it works, but there’s a comical quality to it. Cool, but fucking weird bro lol. @P.A.T. If you’re just casually out here listening and flipping Bach….your sense of...

    Lofi Girl X Native Instruments 'Study Beat Challenge'

    Just gonna flex on us like that?! lol I’ve tried too many times and just can’t get that sound. I’m convinced it entirely has to do with the SP404

    @P.A.T. Drums on this are cool. I like how the kinda tribal acoustic sound matches the guitars. Speaking of which, all guitars are cool. Bass is fucking filthy! lol. I think a different synth would suit the piece better, but overall everything goes together nicely. It’s cool to see how to...

    You did a great job matching the tone! Getting outside of a structure or set template can really help to capture the energy. Nice!

    @2GooD Productions Finding Time: A pretty cool departure from your "typical" sound but still has a few of your hallmarks. I like the sound selection on this. The tight little fill is really nice. Good use of dynamic range and more "ephemeral" sounds: Verbs, wahs, serene spaced out vocals...
