    Production RECORDING VOCALS -- Drop ur techniques and tips!

    i don't know if anyone has mentioned this but i often use an omni pattern (using cad vx2) when recording raps. It works great with deep frequencies when you get up close. (with an omni pattern you really do need to record in a quiet environment and i also use deaden behind the mic so i don't...

    Not using quanitze in your beats.

    i often just play my shit in and record as wav files so quantize isn't an option sometimes. I think it is important to 'develop the metronome in your head'

    The reason why hardware IS better than software !

    this is a none issue with modern daws ("audio constipation" eh hee) but i myself like hardware because of the process i find it's fun and it's more easy to be creative enjoying yourself i like playing synths in as just wav files, playing patterns straight into sonar on my sp-404 as wav files...

    offset drum pattern?

    it is usually a 16th3rd swing on the kick in hip hop (reminicent of hard bop and later fusion drummers such as art blakey etc.) rarely will you have to quantise lower than this on hip hop drums (rolls and etc. are different and southern hats etc. are often using rhythms at 32nd3rds) i often...

    MPC & VST plug-ins

    i don't use the mpc but i have my sp-404 set up in a send in sonar and (i have six outs on my soundcard) it might be easier exporting your synth sounds as wav files from the program you're using then just bringing them in on compact flash

    Difference in Mic's?

    59 and 200 dollar mics nowadays are really in the same price range. Like big d said an mxl can sound on par or close to on par a shure (low mid range usually) it is with mics like u87s c12s manley mics etc. the rode classic 2 or the cad vx2 or se electronics gemini are cheaper higher...

    how do i get melody?

    i think this isn't quite the truth some people have a larger capacity for musical expression but everyone in order to progress needs to increase their melodic, rhythmic etc. vocabulary and understand new concepts in relation to playing and composition. you can try basic things like following...

    Difference in Mic's?

    i know there is alot of difference between my adk a-51 and my cad vx2 but in the low price range i reckon just get the cheapest like mxl if your just recording raps in your bedroom with no dead room or good pre's / a/d convertors.

    just got the sp-404

    just bought this machine two days ago. From the few hours i've had to play with it it rocks. As a sequencer it is suprisingly capable and intuitive which was something i wasn't sure about and the effects are dope. I will post a proper review in a day or two hopefully i can post a track...
