    Too much BOOM on my kicks.

    Ok, so Saturday I tidied my desk up a bit and moved my speakers (shitty speakers, not good monitors) so that they were about ear height and in a triangle with my head. The bass speaker is sat in the middle now too, as opposed to everything on top of each other like before. So yesterday, I was...

    Composition within a sampled beat?

    For example, I've just started making a sampled beat and got some ill horn chops to start the bar with, and need to come up with something in between. When you dudes are making a sampled beat and need to come up with a composition to fill the gaps, how do you do know which instruments will...

    Which is better for chopping samples?

    At the minute I'm using ReCycle, and while I think it's dope, it still leaves me thinking it could be better. Which software do you guys think is the best for chopping samples? If I was to use AL7, could I rewire it into Reason so that I only use AL7 for chopping, and Reason for playing the...

    What did you have to give up when you moved out?

    So my uncle rang me yesterday. He's moving out with his girl to her place, and he asked me if me and my girl wanna rent his current house. Since we're living out of one room at the minute in my parents' house and got a baby in the way, I said yes straight away. £400 ($600) a month rent, 2...

    Making a battle/diss beat

    What would you guys say are the elements I should be implementing into a battle/diss beat? Dirty drums? Piano samples? Stabs?

    Headphones

    I'm on a big hardware hunt haha. I'm looking for a set of headphones so that I can actually hear basslines instead of using the shitty sub I've got. At the minute I'm using a pair of Sony MDR-NC6 and while they're decent headphones, the bass through them is weak as hell. Any suggestions? I don't...

    I'm having trouble with my mic...

    Having trouble recording on Cool Edit with my Mic. It's a Marshall MXL DRK mic, and I just recently formatted my laptop, the mic was working fine before. Now when I record in Cool Edit, it records above the 0 Sample Rate in the waveform view, and there is barely any sound recorded. (See pic...

    Problem with Refills

    So I got a Yamaha Motif Collection refill pack (about 6gb) for Reason and they came in a .daa file. I got PowerISO and extracted them all to my Reason folder, but now when I go in to Reason and click 'Create Instrument', I can navigate through the Refill folders but they are empty. Any ideas?

    Turntables

    I wanna make the crossover from MP3 to Vinyl/LP sampling, or maybe do both. I'm looking for a decent (preferably USB) turntable, but I haven't got much dough to spend on it. Any suggestions for a decent quality set? How about these -...

    Playing samples on the MPK49...

    When I play sample chops with the pads, it only plays for however long I hold the pad for. If I set the release to full in the NNXT then it plays the whole chop and overlaps. I've seen videos of people using the MPC making beats, and they tap the pad, it plays a chop, then they tap another pad...

    Remote Override Settings

    So I've set up the basic remote override settings on a few buttons, using the MPK to control the Record, Play, Stop, Rewind, Fast Forward, Tempo, Click and Precount. Only problem is, when I open up a new project then the override settings are gone. Anybody know if there's a way to save these...

    Quick question on monitors...

    Ok, so I've decided, after reading a few reviews, to get these monitors - http://www.dolphinmusic.co.uk/shop/flypage/product_id/6424 . My equipment is a laptop and an MPK49. Do I need an audio interface to use the monitors with my laptop or will they just plug in to the headphone socket like my...

    Confused

    Ok, so I'm new to this shit really, and to be honest I don't have a clue. I need some good links where I can learn everything I need to know about music production, all the effects etc., what they do and how to use them etc. etc. Any suggestions?

    This site

    All the other production forums I'm on, it's like if you ain't been there for years then no-one gives a fuck and wants to help you or guide you. But this site is dope. I mean, I've posted 2 or 3 threads asking for help on certain things and got like 10 responses of all dudes wanting to help and...
