Re: Cotti's rolling snare's & hats

Re: MANTIS Sounds!!

If you're not on reason then just look at the FX chain and try to replicate it. It's better if you don't replicate it perfectly anyway.

Re: I've been getting frustrated lately about my songs

i'm having this problem recently, especially with intros. i think i'm just gonna post some WIPs on soundcloud to see if it's just me expecting too much from myself. i always seem to get annoyed that i'm not making stuff as good as the pros
