Hey guys, so it’s been two weeks, and I just finished my first beat tape. What now?

Do I hit up big artists to hop on my beats? Or pay some idiot to promote my shit to bots?

Oh btw, I have no social media, no yt channel, and no beat stars or nothing. SC is coming soon tho!

But anyway yeah. I plan on this being my primary source of income in the next year.

Where were you guys at in your first year? Were any of you able to like pay your rent and stuff?

Man I really hate working a real job, can’t wait to blow up and make it big. It’s my DREAM.

Any help is appreciated thanks all you LEGNEDS

Also, do I need to eq my beats at all or will the artists mix my beats for me? I just put reverb on everything and I think it sounds dope.

Thanks everyone 🙏

No really, I’ve been making beats for 3 and a half years now, while they are not the best I believe some of my beats are really good. Busy just sounds ass, he has no mixing, he always uses his drum kits which are ass most of the time, his sound selection is garbage, ik it’s like made for absolute beginners and I was complete ass at beats for my first 6 months, I barely knew what a synth is or some basic music theory. But how does he have way better tools than I have and I still make better beats, it’s crazy, he makes shit beats for almost the entirety of his career, how is he authorized by image line seriously, even when I was ass and everybody roasted my beats online, I knew that he was ass, I don’t get it

Deep diving into Travis Scott’s discography has made me realize that Rodeo is possibly one of the greatest albums of all time. The production quality, and overall sound of the songs/beats on the album is unmatched by any other trap album I’ve ever heard. It has stood the test of time, and it’s honestly without a doubt a top 5 album imo. I’m a producer of one year and I can’t even fathom the creative process of making some of the beats on the album, it’s unbelievable.

I don’t hear it much anymore. I hear southside and lex making hard beats but I haven’t been looking into it recently. I only like those type of beats and that’s why I got into producing and I was so happy it was everywhere.

I even looked at Ronny j and he’s making weird ass Spanish 6ix9ine pop music stuff. I don’t really like this new style. I’m kinda scared to invest so much time in producing and just have no one liking the sound I make anymore. I really really don’t like that juice wrld internet money type beats

I spent 5 years learning and now its over and it was the whole reason I spent all that time learning and I’m still not even close yet.

Yo today I got a guide on how to make your 808 punch like crazy. this is especially good for hiphop and trap beats where u really need a powerful 808.

step 1. first u need a 808 sample that fits the beat so once u have ur 808 u route it into mixer channel and u open the plug in vst fruity fast dist. And turn the dry wet down a bit so it just a bit crunchy on the beat

step 2 boost the bass like 4 or 5 db on fruity parametric EQ. 50hz especially make it rumble. U can also apply some subtle reverb to make it really huge. But not too much cuz then it will sound wacky wacky

Step 3. this is really the sauce step. apply the plugin little altar boy and And turn down the feedback all the way and the wet all the way up then u open soundgoodizer (I know a lot of people roast it but it a good plug in) like 40% mix dry just to spice it

hope u homies can use these tips to make some fire beats 🔥

If I use analog lab v and turn the midi to an audio clip for a beat I plan on selling is that bad?

Yall are a bunch of trolls lol. Thanks still

Hello everyone, I don't know if this is the right place to do this but I have krk rokit 5 speakers that I'm willing to sell for 50 each. The speakers are perfectly fine and sound great. They were my sons who moved out of the house and left them behind. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi everyone,

I’ve been producing and mixing for 3 years. I have a solid home studio setup, professional gear, and I’ve reached a point where my workflow is fast and my ear is developed. I also have some starting capital saved up to invest in my growth.

I’ve set a massive goal for myself: reaching $100,000 in profit within the next year. >

I know the traditional "Type Beat" / BeatStars route is over saturated and often a race to the bottom in terms of pricing. I want to build a real business.

I have been consistent in posting a beat everyday and I am getting barely any veiws. I was expecting a cool 40-60 veiws per video but that’s not the case. I used tags, hashtags in my description artist names artist as my thumbnail and picture what else am I supposed do? The beats are high quality and fit the title and category but still after all of this very little veiws. What can I do to fix this problem??

Hey all,

I've been producing in Ableton for a little over a year now because my friend taught me to use that in the beginning.

I've always noticed over the year of watching tutorials, I've seen that 808s on FL sound way better than 808s on Ableton.

When I pitch up/down the 808 in Ableton it either keeps it's quality but time stretches to the pitch, or when I warp the 808 it ends up sounding terrible but keeping the length to the pitch; As where to FL no matter where you place the 808 it keeps the length and sounds really good.

I was wondering is there any possible way of fixing this? As I know there are top producers using Ableton and their stuff sounds obviously really good.

Thanks all for taking the time to read this :)

Especially nowadays, because he kind of sticks to one sound and you know what sound I am talking about, the Florida sound. I am not gonna lie though, back in 2015-2018, he had some bangers, especially the ones with x, ski, pump, smoke purp and Denzel curry. But to be honest, he is just overrated. Especially since a lot of producers can do that distorted sound better than him (Example: Playboi Carti - r.i.p (Prod. Pierre Bourne))

But yeah, all I'm saying is that J's production nowadays is just flat and uninspiring

Have a question to producers that sell beats and work with artists. I decided to create a beat using 432 hz tuning.

If you don’t know about 432 hz you can find more info on google but the main idea is that when you tune your key from 432hz for A note the melody starts sound different. People say it’s more soulful and “alive “ and 440 hz tune is more mechanical and “not human “ . I also like 432 hz versions of songs, especially for sad melodies but from other side I have this feeling only when I compare with 440 hz. But want to give it a try.

So the question is: Will it be a problem for artists that buy my beats to tune vocals? Or maybe should I add it to the beat info?

It’s like with bpm. Producers don’t recommend to use numbers like 134,567 BPM if you make instrumentals for artists because it will be a headache for other producers and artists that use beat in production.

I know it’s not a scam, but I’d like to know what some opinions are on offers like these

Hello I am a new producer
I want to make good beats but i cant make them original how do i get past this barrier

I just started getting into making trap beats and I struggle trying to make melodies. I'm already not very good at it, but the worst part is that close to none of the sounds from the built in fl studio plugins such as morphine or sakura actually inspire me. The vast majority of them sound loud and annoying and I can't seem to make them sound pleasant in any way. I know the best solution would be to buy ok isphere, but you'd be joking, right?

You idiots always do the same three chord progression, stop, pluck going up, and lead on the stop. Do you not realize that Yale is not his only song. Ken Carson. I would add more insults but then my post would get removed.
