[djdmc24]

hey i love this, its def. helpful. i would like to get into producing, what do you recommend as to what would be a good hardware to have with logic? an akai mpk or...?

[ejdubbs]

@djdmc24 Thanks a lot..make sure you check out my newest beat making video also...but as far as hardware. I would go with an mpk with at least 49 keys. You cant go wrong with keys and drum pads on the same unit.

[ejdubbs]

This is just a simple beat..not meant to be the nicest beat you ever heard. Hopefully this helps a few beginners

[mw2king89]

this is not pop or techno but its alright

[maineyac]

THIS IS REALLY GOOD IM JUST LEARNING NOW HOW TO DO THIS KINDA STUFF, WHERE DO YOU GET ALL THE COOL SOUNDS AND SYNTHS FROM? AND CHECK OUT MY YOUTUBE :)

[ejdubbs]

@maineyac all of the sounds i used in this video came from within the Logic pro 8 program

[Eltsyboy1]

Man, you come right out of a comic book! Great fingering technique!

[boitahaki]

@MayonaiseKing100 amen

[boitahaki]

This is great man

[ejdubbs]

@boitahaki thanks! i really need to stop being lazy and make new beat making videos

[13StoryFall]

how hard do you push your keys in please =/

[ejdubbs]

@13StoryFall don't worry, I didnt hurt it

[13StoryFall]

@ejdubbs haha i've never seen anyone proper mash the keys! haha

[XxpianosterxX]

@13StoryFall It's easyer to keep the beat that way.

[rawrgrr4298]

You've just given me some enthusiasm to open up Logic again. Would i be right in assuming that the sound is not a VSTi but a built in one? (for the synth)

[ejdubbs]

@rawrgrr4298 awesome man...yea that was a stock sound

[darkshadows612]

shit dude...turned out mad good, very well mixed good job

[MrMykebou]

[aStarrToWishOn]

[ejdubbs]

@aStarrToWishOn Thanks!

[mw2king89]

@ejdubbs sounds great but i could name every synth (not really). what im trying to say is TWEAK UR SOUNDS

[ejdubbs]

@mw2king89 yea this video is over a year old and I've learned a lot since posting this...especially to change make my sounds unique..thanks for the input!

[mw2king89]

[ONEyeMarco]

[ejdubbs]

@ONEyeMarco thanks a lot!

[JackieOMusic]

I've watched this before but didn't comment, just like to say I love what your doin man. Keep up the good stuff.

[ejdubbs]

Thanks for the support and encouragement!

[IntoxicatedTV]

one suggestion to all nuproducers out there,

Once you find a sound that you like tweak it a lil so it sounds your own,

[ejdubbs]

Thanks for the suggestion..although, this was just a lil simple beat not mean to be anything special

[IntoxicatedTV]

@ejdubbs

well it is a nice beat, best of luck and stay at it.

[EDTProductions]

@IntoxicatedTV how do u tweak it, im real new..

[IntoxicatedTV]

@EDTProductions

Wow, you add plugins such as distortions to the kicks, maybe a filter directly from within ultrabeat.

nothing too crazy other than to make it sound with more personality than stock.

i've gotten some cool results using thet libraries and changing some aspects.

[keganprickyc]

what drum kit are you usin

[ejdubbs]

I Used like 3 different sets...i forget really which ones they were now..but you might want to try deep house.... and i think one of the acoustics for the high hats
