some of you kids have some pretty backwards views on breaks. have you never listened to hip hop? jungle? they are a real thing. and to say that they kill musical freedom is so...i can't find an emoticon with its head up its ass.

jokes.

i agree that the chart is both a handy intro to eq for beginners and that the numbers themselves are suspect. boost snares at 6? that sounds like it could be pretty sharp and irritating to me.

don't forget to put some oomph in there. seriously, though, build energy throughout the track. build towards a drop, hold that energy, then release somewhat, start building again, big romance explosion, vamp out. my sig track is an example. you don't even have to listen to it, just look at the wavef...

Also, i know controllers look nice, but, alot of clubs dont appreciate you hauling in tons of kit when they have a set of decks and cdj's that have been hooked up since the dawn of time. i respectfully disagree. almost everybody (at least around here) is using computers to dj these days. of course,...

mediocre synths at best. don't believe that they can be automated.

yeah, le's pretty sweet. limited, but geared towards live sets. it only allows 8 channels, i think, but that's how many my nanokontrol has anyway, so it's been working out great.

sucks this is UK only, what a heartbreaker I love chase and status and now I can't enter their fucking contest. you can still download the stems and make your own remix. not like you're going to win anyway (no offence at all intended, just odds are...) hell, even send it in, maybe you'll slip throu...

all the cool kids use it.

i use fl for production but got the LE ableton for my live sets. i love it. loads o' fun.

come on, at least try...

listened to the section and thought it might be an lfo instead of an envelope attached to the pitch.

have the envelope go up instead of down?

Also, does the melody have to be 8 notes?

absolutely not. whatever gave you that idea? don't you listen to music?

i'm toying with the idea of just rearranging all the parts, without modding anything, and sending it in. might actually win, i figure.

since you all hate them so much, here's an opportunity to show them how much better you are than them.

dear god.

that is the wrong reason to make music.

dude, 3 years is but a flash in the pan. get yourself a midi keyboard (but don't expect it to write hits for you) and keep at it.

been making some old school acid tech of late when bored with breakbeats (??? - not very often).

since it's all done with massive (someday i'd love to get a 303 and a virus) i tend to call it massid.

i didn't listen to the sound in question, but another idea is to attach an lfo, but leave it unsynced and deselect restart (sorry i'm talking massive here) so that it just keeps on doing its lfo thing without starting from the beginning every time you play a note. now, if you write a catchy rhythm w...
