That Beat Was So Insane I Swear

[keanureams]

MDL uses FL studio and Cubase to make his beats.

looks like he does his beats in Fl and his vocal stuff in cubase.

[ToxicXRaver]

What program do you use???

[EfendievKarim]

which program he use?

[samuelkeshon]

@EfendievKarim I think its cubase

[officialsuraj]

@EfendievKarim he uses Nuendo, very similar to cubase, both made by Steinberg

[TheBasstone35]

[coldclockpro]

After reading all the posts below mine, I'm realizing that the criteria for posting comments on YouTube is mental retardation. That's my bad, man. You probly stopped reading these about 10 minutes after you uploaded. By 10, I mean 2.

[TheeUrbanGentleman]

@coldclockpro Probably*

[coldclockpro]

You're a talented dood. The way you work is similar to the way I work. I almost wanna say you did the Berklee online curriculum. I suppose this was 3 yrs ago but I dig it! Hit me up, man. I got a lotta talented cats around me.

P.S. It's clavé. Like claw - vay. Cheers!

[giginaxxx]

[MichaelAngeloBeats]

Whattup Bro, how can I download the song? I went to the link you sent (to your Facebook Account) but it doesn't allow me to download. This remix is the sickest I've ever heard anyone do to the song! You're on a different planet with this one!

[raruenify]

Can anyone recommend me a decent (and cheap) interface just for speaker->computer connectivity?

[DeathShadowGamin]

what software u using?

[DaBeatmaker93]

@DeathShadowGamin i think it is pro tools but i don't know the version... :)

[nuen8]

@DaBeatmaker93 you speaking for MDL or yourself?

[JohnnieTech2]

@nuen8 It's Cubase, not PT.

[nuen8]

@JohnnieTech2 I knew it was Cubase the whole time,lol

[JohnnieTech2]

@DaBeatmaker93 He actually says Cubase in the video...

[blahblahblahghufran]

if i get a keyboard,,must i get a mixer as well?

[Redwanbeatz]

@blahblahblahghufran no, u can mix ur beats in the programm via virtual mixer if u programm has one

[gpbeatz]

OMG YOU THE BEST MDL :D thank you for you tutorial

[TheRexer23]

what program do you use to record vocals? what mic, and do you run the mic into the mixer?

[ladieslovecooljosh6]

the pads sound like not afraid by eminem

[dilutinginertia]

FASHION FAG BEAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[00viperXX]

The fastest way is to use a bus on the computer within your DAW and not by re-recording the audio through the interface. This can all be done in the box.

[20Four7ven]

sick.

[stephen6292]

11 mins in is sick



[KUSHbeatz]

That lead was sick! So figuring out the original melody is just trial and error?

[cygaene]

gay :D

[CHUCHINC]

thats dope

[Reelo2214]

is that a motif 6

[u2good2b4gotn]

I have a question for somebody (I don't know where to go with this): When you have a track that you like and think is sellable, what do you do to make it ready to give to the record company or publisher? The electronic file itself, maybe done in ProTools? A professionally mastered copy?

[50EmEazyPac]

whack

[italkBroadCasting]

i thought it said cock suck until

i lookeed in the description

[JohnF30Music]

MDL is good as always. check out my beats too, i get my beats on fantasy Factory on MTV every season

[Mc3FlowProductions]

man every tune of his, got sum bangin snares and kicks, they always stick out to me and what makes his music so good to lissten to, esspiecially wiv his melodies. id love to know wher he gets them drum samples from.

[yardee101]

how to get drums in cubase

[TheRudeboy702]

i was wondering if you could hit me up wit a list of the things that you use like ketboard wise an software and stuff like that

[Hazmat347]

Nice

[leasecleaning]

Do you have a sweep compressor for your bass lines? Just curious if you can lower the pitch of the bass track or change the frequency? I know that those monitors are not getting the lows over this video.

[julix2008]

08:49 did he sidechain there?

[NewMoney90100]

that songs my shit:)

[BlackSpider808]

Could you pls make a dirty south beat and post it?

How much did u purchase that motif?

[RealSkyDiver2]

@BlackSpider808

with money?

[RosadzMusic]

damn you're givin all our secrets away man... teachin about the zoom is crucial.

[RosadzMusic]

@RosadzMusic i take that back you're definitely teaching me shit too!

[C94H]

[carloskingdaddy]

i just got cubase 5 and i came from fl studio. I want to know how do u make ur drums into audio tracks like that cuz i wanna have my kick in one channel and make a pattern but when i drag the kick into the sequencer it only shows the kick im seen mdl has his drums in seperate audio tracks and he made a pattern out of it thats wat i want to know. Right now im putting all my drums into battery 3 and opening the tracks into the mixer which im ok with but i would like to learn the way mdl does it.

[bADproductions87]

[joshguitar08]

[FlyingFridges]

11:16 that lead is a hit.

[superslikuzi007]

I agree. I dream of having talent like that.

[ytxcg]

just make beats everyday dude. sooner or later u will get to the point when someone else dream of having a talent like u.

[ArtixxProductions]

@superslikuzi007 there's no thing such as "Talent" , It's called "Hard Work"

[superslikuzi007]

Not really. Hard work comes into play, but Talent is God given.. your born with talent. And from what I'm watching this guy has talent.

[dukez]

@superslikuzi007 Not rly bro, Every can do What this dude`s doing. just set your mind to it.

[ArtixxProductions]

@superslikuzi007 it's your opinion. i respect your thoughts

[superslikuzi007]

Yea, I respect yours too.. sorry if I came off as rude or something, just wanted to get my thoughts out there..

[JulianThaProducer]

[5loveable]

[McJellow]

Wtf???!

I think so Lmfao

[erab232]

were u get da tap tempo thang at

[TyumenStyle]

tell me pls the steps to open the beat calculater

i cant find it

[paranaque1700]

stereo or mono, wats best?.

[MyPassionsss]

"stereo or mono, wats best?." - LOL:) Best for what?

[losangeles6189]

its really good, but u dont actually have to be that good to succeed in the business. listen to most ditrty south beats, which are simple and easy made as hell

[GorgonTheMagicMan]

Why not just run your monitors left and right out of your interface?

[4thDimensionBeats]

Bullfrog24... no talent for sampling????

tell that to J Dilla (RIP), DJ Premier, THe Alchemist, Just Blaze, 9th WOnder, etc.

It takes just as much ear to sample as it does to play the keys.

[VoidProductionz]

Damn, Ill match you on the beat making, but not the keyboard skills, and from what im seeing is still pretty simple, but still better than my fingers, I believe being able to play keyboard or an instrument is the key to being a great musician, but maybe i just say that cuz ive yet to fine tune my skills in that area

keep up the good tutorials

Void Productionz

[xidica]

man mdl your shit has been going hard. I'm patiently waiting for my MO8 this friday or next monday I'll have it and then it's on...

[AAR1357]

sampling is one of the best ways to make music. mixing your originality with someone elses = 1 great song! most of the time anyway. nice work man i like it.

Anthony

[proofmc2]

so say im using a digital recorder that has usb outputs and midi, would i be able to use that as my audio interface to record to software. im pretty new to the computer part of things so any helpful tips you have would be appreciated. thanks

[BASSLINESSSS]

yh, where can we get this track m8 ?

[metalshredhead1]

wheres the full remix :(

[Halloranisy5]

i agree wit lildrewZ he is fuckin talented. sum people are just jelous..can we not appreciate talent anymore!! keep it up md

[Mac3YD]

how are u recording your instruments? via midi? because they look like audio files in the mixer

[Whitesock12345]

I think he records his midi and then transfers the note data to another instrument.

[djcripplecrunk]

if you have the mixer hooked into the interface and your monitors how can you hear whats going on in your sequencer wouldnt you have to plug back into your mixer from your interface? i dont get it, unless your using 2 pairs of monitors which your not.

[fnkdrmr86]

fuckin wig

[LYTEYEARPRODUCTIONS]

this dude is whack chop a sample get some dirty drums and make a real hiphop track bet mdl cant do it

[YoungScene]

i dont see anything wrong with what he is doing... i think you are just a hater...

[lildrewZ]

let em do what he wants with his own mind and skills, bring somethin to the table if you're gonna talk shit.

[thebullfrog24]

samples = less talent then people who actually know how to play music

[sanctusn]

That's just stupid..

Everybody samples. So you'r sayin that timbaland or jay z dont know shit bout music?

[lancsno1]

the chords are similar if not the same used in Taio Cruz song

[mellamanchulo]

link me to the page of the acapella of that beat plz
