Some guy offered me $200 to make a Reggateton beat but....
i'm predicting that this thread will be closed by the end of the week... but before it is let me interject. i dont know kurtis rich. but i think it is safe to assume that his financial wellbeing does not depend on this solitary reggaeton track. that being said, people act like he's...- Agent Smith

Software or Hardware?

Software or Hardware?
also it sounds cheap when instruments are used in a way that they don't sound natural...what i mean is like a saxaphone player doenst control his saxaphone with keyboard keys...so you have to remember that and play it (as much as the keys will allow) like a saxaphone (or trumpet or...- Agent Smith

This could get ugly...
word...illmuzik is priceless because people here want to progress and they want you to progress too. if that means telling you that your beat is ass crap, so be it-- i'd rather have people do that than lie to me and make me think i'm good enough to shop my beats...that hurts someone way more...- Agent Smith

where do you get yours?
i've noticed tht a way a producer programs/chops his drums is almost like a fingerprint...where do you guys get your drum ideas/inspiration from? i definitely get mine from drum n bass patterns. dj krush's drums are exquisite and i like a lot of jazz drumming. also, i like that hardcore...- Agent Smith

Pissed off beat maker
well first of all, the mpc has sounds loaded in it when you get it...plus there are plenty of sample cds you can buy so you dont have to dig through vinyl. or just get reason 3.0 and use your computer...- Agent Smith

Is there something better then Recycle for chopping?
word...when you have too many slices the program has to struggle to keep it on the bpm that you set it for...i would suggest putting in the slice points yourelf and if youre already doing that, put only ones that are most important- Agent Smith

Some guy offered me $200 to make a Reggateton beat but....
i think it would have been sick to take the main elements of reggaeton and then ripped the shit up out of them with your own style...then be like..."well, it's my verson of reggaeton" and then walked away with your $200...sort of in defiance of the genre...thats what ive done with a couple...- Agent Smith

How long does it take you to finish a beat
i would say the beats where i compose take longer during the actual making of the beat...but when i sample it takes at least an hour to get the sample chopped and ready- Agent Smith

Sampling Producers.
first of all get your hands on recycle...that will make your life easier for sure. what i usually do is jsut try to find a few bars (hopefully just drums or nstrumental but it can be interesting if theres both) and i sample it. maybe 4-8 bars of it. then i load it into recycle and slice it...- Agent Smith
