    Kanye getting fleeced to clear samples

    @Iron Keys @thedreampolice Oh, sorry, I meant no more Kanye debates FOR ME. If you guys want to, go for it. I find it fascinating! Just let me squeeze in here and get comfy.

    Kanye getting fleeced to clear samples

    Of course that's going to happen. Is it fair? Of course not. But if he's willing to pay stupid rates then that's probably why he gets charged ridiculous amounts. Who cares. Fuck Kanye anyway.

    Yeah that's a possibility, but that's where producing and having a good ear comes into play. There were SO many mixtapes I heard back in the 90s where DJs would just line shit up but it sounded like shit. It just amazed me how this was acceptable. So line your shit up, but it's common sense...

    Yeah I noticed some videos where the acapella was from some guy recording off of vinyl but the pitch wasn't even at zero lol. So it's hard to get a good source sometimes. If you have a good pitch effect in your DAW, lining it up with the full song shouldn't be too bad.

    Yeah it's much simpler this way. I'm surprised more people don't do it this way. I've heard lots of beats where the vocals were off slightly.

    Oh yeah, one issue with this though is your source. See when I did it as a DJ, I had the instrumental and acapella on a 12" so they were both the right BPM. But for example, if you download the full song or instrumental from YouTube then download the acapella from some other YouTube video...

    Yeah I've tried doing it like that by pretty much guessing but that's risky. Like you said, sometimes you think you have it but then it drifts off lol. That sucks big time. Plus it wastes time. The reason I do it like this is because I would do DJ blends all the time, mixing an acapella from...

    My trick for acapellas lining up (started doing this when DJing), is to get the instrumental (or the full song), and line that beat up with my beat. Then I'll know exactly when to drop in the acapella. So in my DAW I just solo my drums and line it up with the song then line up the acapella with...

    @Vossi Beats If I were you I wouldn't worry about it. Do what you do best, what your strengths are. If you're not comfortable with vocals then don't use it. I've voted for plenty of beats over beats with vocals. We're still voting for the best BEAT. If it has vocals on it and the vocals sound...

    The 10 drum machines that changed musical history

    I had the Roland R-70, that was a lot of fun to work on. I just enjoyed the simplicity of these drum machines.

    Yeah but you don't HAVE to have vocals. You can just submit a regular beat.
