  • Definitely disagree. Although I think some points have some weight behind them most of music making is preference and opinion. I personally like to get a few synths and beats, drop them in, and see where that leaves me. Sort of like letting me lead myself to the next sounds I need for the track. Although that method doesn't necessarily work well for others its all about what you like and how you want to go about making your sound.

  • @TheOfficialDestroi You're totally welcome to disagree. It's a matter of personal preference. This method takes discipline, which isn't always as enjoyable as being free spirited about it. So, my caveat is this...if you're totally satisfied with the rate at which you complete music and the quality of that music, then keep doing what you're doing. However, my experience is that most people are not there. And if you're one of those folks, then being open to a new process can be enlightening

  • I couldn't help but look at that sexy mpk88 the whole time

  • but one thing never to forget if you want to write exhotig, good, unique music, is to NEVER follow any rules... this means your "sound" of your music, will for EVER be fresh, rather than following a "form" or "steps" of writing music...

  • thx so much

  • bad monitors, bad hat.

  • i have not been getting any mail from u guys even after subscribing twice .....

  • Interesting ... i think i most def get stuck in the mixdown phase the most

  • I honestly think some of these tips are a really bad idea, specifically trying to build an 8 bar loop before arranging. I've done that in the past, but for me I've found it SO much easier to arrange the track as I go.

    I think more people will end up getting stuck when trying to create a perfect 8 bar loop instead of actually building the track.

  • I know several of you disagree, but for beginners and students lost in mix down or sound design - this is a very helpful roadmap to helping them get on track and complete a song quicker. Go from there.......as you progress.

  • @Luftbubblan when exporting find the dither options ,if you set corectly it will give you a spacial sensation and set sample rate to the maximum when mixing,but when you master it in the final you export it back to 44100 sample rate:)
