Why did you decide to start producing?
Which program(s) do you use when producing?
What hardware do you produce with?
The hardware I use when producing my music are a MacBook Pro and Krk KNS 8400 Studio Headphones. I also have a M-Audio Axiom Pro 61 which I haven’t used for a year.
How long does it typically take for you to make a beat?
It depends. A lot of times I’ve been really busy, so I’ll “half-bake” a beat in 10-15 minutes and either leave it alone, or come back to it and add some more instrumentation to it later. However, a lot of the beats people hear from me are made by what I call a “Euphoria.” They usually happen at night after I have had no creative ideas for a long period of time. Generally, A melody would start playing in my head, and after I record that melody on my program, multiple ideas branch off of it, until I hear a “song.” I try my best to make the instrumental sound like the “song” I envision. This usually takes 1-7 straight (yes, straight), hours depending on the complexity of the “song” I mentally hear. During those hours, I can’t take a break or I lose sight or vision of the “song.” When I feel like I’ve done enough, I take a day break, or so, and then take an additional 30 minutes to an hour to finish mixing and mastering it.
Hi, thanks for sharing. I’m wondering if it’s OK to copy some of the text in my site?
As long as you give credit, I don’t see the problem!
