    whats so great about a MPC anyways?

    What sets a dedicated hardware sampler away from software samplers such as fruity loops? I use a software program (that you probably havent heard of, but it works great for me) and I think my beats sound pretty hot. After all, its the quality of the samples you use that determine the sound...

    copyright question

    gec: I think we are on the same wavelength. I was thinking about doing your first suggestion. 1. Do I have to get him to terminate his rights in exchange for a royalty? 2. What if he refuses to accept? 3. Can I register the SR without his consent? 4. What good is a SR...

    copyright question

    first a little background: A rapper approached me and asked me if he could use my beats for a show he was doing at a club. I said fine, but it would cost him a few bucks. One of the things we decided to do was make a CD single with two of the songs that he was performing at the show. So...

    This track is HOT

    ha ha , funny yeah, FREAKIN HILARIOUS. They should call this place "Home Comedians.com." Okay, so I was in a little bit of a hurry last night. I wrote the post while it was still uploading, and had to make a 9:15 movie. I guess I spaced out. Anyways, to make matters worse, for some...

    Selling Beats???

    great contract... looks like you mean well, but whats with this "the producer shall receive no royalties" garbage? I think a cash advance with a 3% royalty would be more lucrative for you.

    Give it to me Straight

    Thanks for the feedback!! Thanks a lot, guys. Its amazing how fresh ears can pick things out of a mix. I will definitely take all your comments to heart. I would like a little clarification on a few things though. Its interesting you ALL commented that the bass sounded synthetic; it was a...

    I want that G-Funk Sound...

    When I go for a G-Funk feel, I call up my friend. I lace the drums just fine, but he knows those crazy chord progressions that you only find in west coast rap. I reccomend you find a gospel church around you and steal their keyboard player. Gospel and west coast G-funk are amazingly similar.

    Give it to me Straight

    This song is supposed to be a stirring and passionate love song. The mix is good, but not perfect, so I want some other opinions. If its possible, I would love to hear some feedback on the tone of the song, as well as technical pointers. My main questions are: 1. How is the vocal quality...

    Annoyingly Flat Vocalist

    Auto-tune has a free demo that works about 15 times before it wants money. You could probably fix that flat note for free.

    A question about normalization in Soundforge

    the normalize function in SF5.0 has an option to normalize to RMS with dynamic compression if clipping occurs. It amounts to a maximizing of the overall volume, and sounds quite natural, too.

    For those of us who aren't lucky enough to have a TRINITY, does anyone have a favorite sample CD for drum sounds and synth hooks?

    De-essing and compression on vocals w/o hardware

    Any suggestions for de-essing and compression using a wave editor such as cool edit pro? ie. ratios, thresholds, attack times, release times, etc... Ideally i would like to simulate a chain of real effects processors to get a natural and transparent sound. Can this be done with software after...
