ojoawo: I personally record and mix with Adobe Audition...... Its also great with vocal editing buh I need one that's really good for vocals or one that's strictly Fø̲̣̣я̅ vocals.... And besides am a rookie with mixing, any hint would βε̲ helpful

thasouthwestson: @all like how many layers do u guyz double your vocals...and (2) how often do u use parallel compression on your drums

hulkaman: @ deejay harry can i hv ur contact plz looking to working with a nice producer who understands music

deejay_harry1:

like two layers is more than enough.. cox backups or main-overs will still be fitted in...


for parallels, i personally dont use it on my drums, execpt when im making a dirty south beat banger... i tend to also use it on my snare rolls as well... so it all depends on individual preferences..

thasouthwestson:

tankz for the vocal layering tip...and abt d parallel comp on drums,i feel lyk it does more harm(sound to squached) dan good when added to drums buss(i mean drums as a group) thats y i askd in d firstplace..or is there a way to prevent that too squached sound?

thasouthwestson: yea boss,i use fl too.
but i dnt really lyk fruity loop that much..though fl is cool n straight forward to use..but mix on fl after rendering mostly always lack that cripy clear sound...or is there a way around that too.am sorry for ma too much questions o..
lol

deejay_harry1:

yes there is a way, u just need to set ur asio... and sound drivers... look up tutorials and youtube vids of how to set up asio on fl, cant type them all... fl is best when it comes to giving out sound quality of beats....

ojoawo:
I use fl studio and prefer it, buh for real... Reason got better sound

thasouthwestson: ...yea for sure...reason and Ableton live.....i love both of em die!! wat genre of beats do u make?.

ojoawo: after setting up ur asio real good.. u would know there is a reason why cece-G and lex lurger chooses it
Talkng bout superstar producers; Chops, Outkast, Will Smith, Chris Styles (producer for G_unit
), will.I.am all use Reason... Scott Storch also used Reason before he switched... I basically love FL Studio which is my primary DAW, but Reason gave me something different in sound when I use it, the bass and drum re basically so clear and fresh I could eat them raw, lol


...yea for sure...reason and Ableton live.....i love both of em die!! wat genre of beats do u make?.
I love making RnB and the Seventeen classes of HipHop Instrumentals but signed to a label means I have to produce manners of instrumentals if not all of em...

i use reason as well tho, even nuendo...... but after setting up my asio on fl... gawd production was sweet... lol..

lol..its all good sha, so far the cause ends in making a banger....

ojoawo:

Exactly, I feel you bro
Do you use a sequencer?

deejay_harry1:

not really... still tryn to perfect it brotherly..

ojoawo:

Oo aii... Everybody works towards perfection
Do you mix and master your beats in FL too?

thasouthwestson: so guyz wat about we share links to our beats?...or what do u tink??..

deejay_harry1:


its ayt... but wah site do u have in mind..

achu442: The problem many producers have with FL Studio is mixing of beats..Please always remove ur limiter b4 u start up ur beat.Pan most of ur kits..Make use of the auto stero imager on the master channel(it makes ur beat surround).Send ur kits to a bus reverb with a little compression.Then add flanger and a phaser to ur stringed instrument..Then export at 350kps...by Zibit Da Replay(Producer,Audio masterminder and Songwriter)
