Yo! What’s going on guys? I’m going to make a beat, a hip-hop beat and I’m going to start with the drums. So let me select my drums. And I’m going to go to Timberland’s kit.
First, I’m going to select the kick. I’m going to mix two kicks together, these two, and I’m going to turn off the loops. Then what I’m going to do is I’m going to set my channels to eight. It gives me more freedom when I make my beats and going back to his kit, I’m going to select the snare now.
Let’s try making a beat. So you want to keep your snare sound like, also at the tempo, turn it down to 90, 95. I’m going to try 92.5. Let’s see how this sounds, let’s just hear the snare first. Let’s turn off the loops on that. All right, let’s start adding the kicks to it now.
[Demonstration]
Then play around with the sounds. That is good. There’s lot of things missing in there. Let’s add other instruments. We’re going to mix the snares on with that one. Now it’s got a bit more of a swing. And now we’re going to add the high hats.
[Demonstration]
I’m just thinking how to do this. All right, that is perfect. We’re going to add more things to it now. That’s a nice bass, I’m going to use that later on this beat. Check the part two for this right, adding the melody. I think I’m done from Timberland. I think I like this shaker though. Let’s see how this goes.
[Demonstration]
And now we’re going to add the channel effect it and equalizer. Listen to this snare. Also add the reverb. All right, I’m going to add the equalizer. I’m going to go through the Eq’s of all the-.
[Demonstration]
The beats already got the little rhythm where you can just rap to it, you know what I mean. So this is part one making the beat. Check out part two which is making an actual melody for this.
