your bars tired, trite, lack substance, did you read what you wrote?
just like legend4ry locking threads and screaming REPOST

Now now, lets save the raps for the main event :p also, you DEFINITELY should rock the t-pain style, there's no doubt.

can you actually set the length of the contest to something reasonable and conducive to actually putting in proper time for all aspects including some downtime before doing a mixdown

O for the love of fuck plEASE don't do the t-pain shit.

I personally cant wait, i got a shit microphone but im lookin forward to droppin a verse or two.

Try the signal chain of.....

Compressor, Expander, Gate (on a wide setting).

Maybe expander after the gate if there isn't much hiss. - Get some small reverb in there to make it sound "bigger" since gating it will suck out frequencies.

I'm not sure if its technically sound but its wha ti do for my shitty microphone what gets loads of hiss

AfterEmpire · Post by **AfterEmpire** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 2:37 am

I used to brick wall my shit on that old fruity parametric eq back when I didnt know much.

Soundcloud

case in point.

But ill give this a whirl since I was always looking for a cleaner way to do it. Thanks for the quick response Ledge.

I wonder how many folks are actually down to drop a verse.

U gonna drop one Paravrais?

jrisreal · Post by **jrisreal** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 2:51 am

AfterEmpire · Post by **AfterEmpire** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 2:59 am

well you use the compressor to get an overall solid level from your vox so the loud ain't too loud in relation to the rest
the expander makes it so that any ambient room noise (like say footsteps, breathing etc) or low level crap doesn't make it through
it's really handy when using a condenser mic in a less than ideal room

by SC, do you mean soundCLICK? lol then yes. SoundCLOUD, no. And I got a good idea for a beat just now so nevermind

BTW, for some reason my fruity loops won't let me overdub when recording. if I record, it deletes all the notes I have in there. anyone know how to fix this? Im recording a complex piano pattern

EDIT: NVM...FIXED

legend4ry · Post by **legend4ry** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 3:25 am

Click the R<| in the recording panel (next to the play, stop, record buttons)

Turn off the chain-link next to it.

AfterEmpire · Post by **AfterEmpire** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 3:36 am

Ima give this a go, as it seems a worthwhile diversion from my normal methods...

jrisreal · Post by **jrisreal** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 3:46 am

ah my other idea sucked as well...ill just stick with one of my other beats.

AfterEmpire · Post by **AfterEmpire** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 5:22 am

Look Junior Isreal

I have had some beats in my head that were fuckin dope, but when i laid them down in my DAW, they were less than mediocre, but after a while of just fuckin with shit and really just puttin my time in, they surpassed even my greatest expectations.

Point is, keep fuckin with that idea that you thought was silver until it turns into gold.

Rome wasn't built in a day, and from what i can gather by ur sig you'll appreciate this, neither was the world... It took a week.

haha thanks man

thing is, i usually can get out a rap beat in under an hour so i just dunno...maybe I have writers block...or maybe not...i usually work when an idea comes to me, not when I desperately search for an idea to use in contests...too much pressure on it

I got a sick beat for use anyway. Not even close to my best, but its got a dubstep type sound in it so I thought it would fit in with the forum http://www.soundclick.com/player/single ... i&newref=1
I may change my mind, though...or edit this one alot
