thanks disk, i actually prefer the vocal approach for my previous mixtape too. the reason why i did it this way for song was because i felt it suited the song better. when i recorded, i couldn't feel the "power" when i did it in "normal" tone. the aggression gave the song "life" in my opinion. oh and the whole swag cookin thingy, we were just having fun and riding on the hype. no one here locally has done that shit, so we thought we'd just fuck with it for fun. i totally understand when you say bandwagoney. thanks again for the input.

haploid i like this track. The only thing I could say to make a track more complete or cohesive is to look into harmony thoery to understand phrasing, this really helps to progress a track tonally. Also you could try a modulation and change keys, this helps to break up a track.

amardeep, i think it's pretty cool but the volume of the instrumental is too high which leads to the listener losing focus. I think

[minou]

yo amardeep, i like how the instrumental gives the song a different vibe but i'm a little disturbed the sounds being off key at some points to the general chord.

everyone, lets all try to make a lex luger beat and see whose is the best (0)

[destructodisk]

i like this ha ha i'm in.

[haploid]

fuck i dont have fruity loops so i can't use the pre-made shit that comes with it that he uses

where to cop rising synth sample? if we're staying true to form, everything has to be a loop or something pre-made lol.

[ROYALEFATALE]

i have the sample of that rising synth in every one of his tracks, i'll upload it

[haploid]

we should make this a communal project. should i post somethin up in misc musings thread as a wanted add: "real trap rappers wanted, must be swaggin out to qualify"? we could theoretically put out a mixtape.

might have to cut off the last bit but that's basically the rise

[ROYALEFATALE]

--e: on a unrelated note, what do y'all use as audio editing software?

Logic Pro 9

[Rafique]

Logic Pro 9

same here, ableton is pretty cool though

[amardeep]

i meant more like editing samples

I use ableton to arrange stuff and put samples on drum sounds but use soundbooth to chop up longer samples and pitch/time editing

[destructodisk]

you have infinitely more flexibility and power using a DAW like Ableton or Logic for sample editing, not sure why you'd use soundbooth at all actually..

yo, here's a trak I did with a girl in LA. lemme know what you guys think of everything, all CnC welcome

[destructodisk]

this is a shameless self-bump so that you guys peep the track up there^^^^^^^^^^^^^^, really curious to hear what people say, plus I added some vocal adlib chop chop whatnot

[ROYALEFATALE]

really good production wise, the only CC i have is like that synth being panned/filtered behind the vocals kind of washes them out a bit, not sure how to explain it...it may be that the vocals aren't powerful enough, or it could be too loud in the mix, sidechaining the vocals to that synth track with a compressor...essentially 'ducking' may help a bit, or maybe i'm just hearing shit, i didn't listen at a loud level just what i noticed, still the beats and everything sound very tight

Everything production/ mix sounds good to me. Maybe add a lead over the chords?

shouts out to royalefatale for the wav

[ROYALEFATALE]

here's my beat so far, there's plenty of drops as per every Lex track, still have to add those snare rolls, and the synth is pretty much just a placeholder at this point
