Ok, so I made a new beat, I only put up the sample of it on my website, so you all could hear it. There's something missing, and I'm not quite sure what it is. This is my first beat that I haven't sampled out of. I made all the sounds, and put it the way I thought it should sound.

I think the snare is a bit too tight, needs to be loosened a bit, but everything else sits right, in my opinion.

Please, let me know what you think, any advice is wanted and needed.



Also, it sounds better when you have the sub woofer on, just so you know. Those of you with laptops won't get the full effect.

:D Comments needed!!!
 
Turn that kick up and add a tiny tiny bit of reverb to the snare. The track needs more parts to it. Maybe you should add a piano melody in there somewhere; a stronger bassline...some add ins here and there and u got a hit...another opinion try turning the tempo down a tad to give a more gangsta feel

Kick turned up.

Reverb added to the snare.

I have no piano sound worthy of the compilation, so I'll have to find something else for it but I do hear ya there.

Tempo turned down from 170 to 165, a little bit slower.

I'll work on that piano part. and the bassline.

Other then that, is it fairly good?
 
I think Noddy hit the nail on the head with this one. Some pianos in a mid to light pitch with a nice melody would DEFINITELY help this. I also agree with the reverb on the snare. Also I think a nice synth would help give this more depth too...but you have to be a little picky about the synth, because putting it in front would kill the track. If it were more to the back to let other instruments stand out, it'd help that out IMO.


How are you making your beats? That might help a lot for us to give you more critique.

I'm workin' on finding a decent piano sound, I'm makin' my own with Fruity Loops.

That's all I use for all my beats, is Fruity loops.

I tried to add a harder bassline to it, but it distorted alot of the others out, so I'm leaving the bassline, as it does hit fairly hard as is. But, I'll work on tuning that as well.

Thanks!

P.S. About the Synth, you were correct on the ending, it does drown out alot but I can throw somethin' in there in the background, definitely.

It's a matter of getting the melody right on it. but Ill try
 
Aye FL has some kinda bangin pianos in it already...Insert FL KEYS or DX10 and use ething
 
You could also search for some soundfonts free. Those work in FL too and they can help enhance that sound.

I think I accidentally sped it up, rather than slowed it down, but I think it has a nice flow to it, never the less.

Uhm, I couldn't find any good piano parts to throw into it yet, I'll work more on it tomorrow. Parents are in bed since it's 9PM here, and I can't have my subwoofer on anymore. But, I did add the bassline to hit harder, and it does sound about 20% times better than it did before, I appreciate the help, anything else I can do to it besides the piano part? By the way, remember it's just a sample I'm showing you guys, it isn't the finished song, the ending is kinda just "BOOM" and I'm going to adjust that, I'm going to set the parts differently in the song, so it goes "verse" / "chorus" / "verse" / "chorus" type of thing, but we'll see how it turns out. Here's the product after editing and what not..



Hope it is a decent one.

Once again, Thanks for the pointers. :D
 
Im really feeling that drum pattern home boy...I still believe it will sound WAY better once the piano is added in, in some type of fashion...maybe a Grand Piano....if i was at home I would ask if I could put some noddy juice on that thang :D (ur first HR collab) ;)
 
I KNOW WHAT IT'S MISSING!!!

After I peeped that update, it needs chimes about every 16th bar. That'd help that a lot too.

Yeah I'll definitely get that Grand Piano added in and what not. Do you want to do a collab? I wouldn't mind at all, if you spiced it up a bit. Definitely.

Now, question. How much do you think i could throw this one out for? 10 bucks? hahaha..

let me know.

Lol, I didn't even notice that! I thought it was a Mac Apple. Holy hell, I'm totally changing that right now. Thanks for pointing that out, I'm straight, just so you know man. Lmfao. Pathetic I tell you. See? this is what happens when you get online at 4 in the morning after not sleeping for 3 days and start messing with stuff.

:D

Collab for sure man, I will probably have it decently done by Sunday, but I'd like your "spice" to it, so I can actually make a profit off of it, if that's cool wichu, otherwise I'll throw it down and collab so you can get some of it too.


Thanks agian for pointing that out.. hahah ...

There, now my avatar is changed to a logo I made, which it only shows the R because I can only have it 60x60 Pixels. I wonder if that'll change, because I've seen some avatars that are way bigger than 60x60 Pixels. But at least I can get a custom avatar now, I was told I had to wait til 250 posts. I guess not!

P.S. - I'll work on that beat some more tomorrow and see if I can do anymore to it, if I can't I'll have to get you the FLP file so you can work on it on Sunday and hit me up with the final outcome and we'll work something out.

Thanks again for pointing out that gay apple, although it was "Apple's Logo" it looked quite, queer.

Never the less, Take care, and thanks for the comments, keep 'em comin' :D
