Death Grips use Ableton Live 8

9th Winder used to use FL Studio, but now he uses Pro Tools.

Ski Beatz uses Ableton

Any info on other producers? Avoid producers that use Pro Tools

Clams Casino uses Sony Acid Pro

Soulja Boy uses FL Studio

a bit of piano (im not good, but i can learn songs if i try) and wind instruments... but the guitar thats where my passion is.

Cool man!

See, I'm pretty good at the piano, but I suck ass at the guitar. I probably was actually learning within a normal time frame, but I'm too impatient because I'm already good at the piano so I'd rather play that, plus I'm busy with school; so I actually sold my electric :sadblu:

I still kept the acoustic. I can only play Lost Without U and Hotel California on it, lol.

tbh tho, u can mix good, im jelly... i can make some sick beats, but i cant mix worth shit.

Dude, thats funny... because its like 50/50. Either people love the mixing or hate it.

That's because I hack-jobbed that whole project on my bandcamp. See, here's the story:

I was gonna drop the album, and put alot of time into it, but I got burnt out with music, so ended up quiting for like 5 months or whatever. So when I came back, I wanted to start fresh, because I got alot better on the piano, and everything; but ****** was like, we want Castle Music. So I'm like, I'll give ya'll ****** Castle Music alright :he:

So I rushed this album together.

I swear I mixed tracks 3,7, and 9 in like 5 mins each. Just reverb and compression. Fucking hack job. Track 9, I didn't even do drums on it, lol. Its just a chopped sample.

Track 2 was the first track I ever mixed it, but I'm upset because it was probably the worst mixed track, but I thought it had potential.

But yeah, before I write another wall of text, yeah, that shit was soooo last minute. But I got another project I'm working on this summer, just summer music. Alot of keyboards, rhodes, a few synths, acoustic guitar, maybe some clean electric. Trying to get some summer music out.

see yeah, me i like chopping up sounds, fuckin around with the drums shit like that, but then EQing = volume leveling lol... i think my problem was i would never EQ it as i went along. it was always too late to equalize certain sounds that needed work individually. i would wait until it was a bunch of sounds meshed together and i'd try and equalize that lol. then i'd choose between terrible mixing, or muffled/fucked up sounds.

my mixing is fuckin sad lol... but that was in FL 8.. i got 10 right now, but i havent made a full song on it yet or anything. but some of the mixing plugins ( :delfap:

) make shit sound SO professional... i should probly get back into it.

but yo post it on ktt when u make your new tape, it would be cool to see your progression, and im always down for new music lol

I use Logic. It's awesome imo.

I found Ableton kinda difficult to get used to and I found FL too limited, though I wasn't an avid/in depth user.

Logic is so deep it's crazy.

I got pro tools through school, and idk, everytime I try to download fruity loops from a website or torrent there's like some weird virus warning so I end up deleting the shit.

hook me up with a code so I can activate from the demo or whatever :hah:

I went from logic to maschine to fruity loops. I prefer fl studios but i have a lot of problems when i export my shit. I will spend all day mixing my shit but it when it gets exported the mix is trash :clap:

never had this problem on maschine. And everything on logic was always so clear i never even needed to mix stuff.

But fl has a few cool plugins. Only a few tho..sequencing is the best tho...automation clips are sick too
