Have you tossed effort and money at beat creator after beat creator, only to find out that they don't provide, or supply too much of, the high-tech you need to set your beat production creative talent loose? Don't let the wrong production tools force you to feel as though you're mistaken to think that making hard cracking beats isn't too hard. Acquire a beat creator that has each of these four characteristics and watch the beat of your dreams come into existence.
1. Quality and Never Without Compromise
Talented though you may be, if your beat creator provides you with samples and kits that sound like they were made in a hurricane in 1986, you'll never make a beat that'll get your beat making career out of the ditch. When it comes to the sounds that you put together your beats with and the quality in which you finalize what you've assembled, it's the studio quality 44.1 wav way or the loser way. Use mp3s and you'll be rundown verbally by everyone who listens to them.
2. Bar Constructing Not One-Bar Looping
This might seem a little bit severe but it won't be 50 % as severe as the reaction you'll get if you don't adhere to it: if you want to develop beats that don't get you a spoken beat down, you have to use a beat creator that constructs patterns not never ending repetitions of a one bar loop, as if there is some sort of point to doing that. A good rule of thumb, is to go for an application that will allow you to build your bar count to 16 bars, although you'll need more than that if you intend to really expand your creative boundaries in the future.
3. Desktop Not Internet Based
You might have been compelled to use an web based beat maker on the assumption that, considering that you don't have to download anything, given that it's no cost, due to the fact it's designed for anyone to use, that it should be a shortcut to creating a beat you'd be happy to call yours. If you were unable to reject this urge, you probably gathered very quickly that this "shortcut" involved lengthy waits anytime you wanted to import sounds or source files and save full kits, and even required waiting for your beats to play, every last time you wanted to listen to what you produced. That's without considering that it probably wasn't developed by people with any interest in beat making other than getting wanna-be beat producers to click on ads and open spammy emails.
4. Sequencer Plus
producing pro beats without professional gear, with a beat creator is attainable but only if that beat creator can duplicate the workflow of a pro beat producer's setup. To have any chance of this you'll require more than just the 16-track sequencer that sums up many of them, but a drum machine (10 pad is best) and keyboard panel (four octave is best), as well. To make certain you don't spend weeks producing a beat that should really take a couple of days, you'll want to be able to import kits and sounds on the move, develop your bar count and double-up on layers with point and click ease, and apply volume leveling and some fundamental effects (i.e. delay and reverb) to each track.
