The Science Behind Why Your Beats Are AWFUL

Usually the problem is the beat is terrible.

If that beat sounds mid, check your mids.

The problem with the first one is that it doesn't actually have a musical idea. You didn't fix it by adding sustained notes, you added an actual bassline and came up with a core melodic idea.

A good tip to fill low mid that i use is: 1.duplicate a synth or a pad
2. Add half time and play with the ‘release’ and ‘speed’ setting to give it a fitting rhythm
3. Eq everything but from 250hz -550hz or so
4. Adjust volume to make it sit
5. Do some stereo imaging to give it more depth

If you use stock plugins and want a more processed sound add distortion, color, reverb, and decay can make a world of difference here

This format is underrated ! Really awesome to see you fix beats with such simple changes

6:38 Stickguy shouldn’t feel bad abt this beat, I like the 2013 Earl Sweatshirt and Tyler, The Creator vibes from it

Navie. I have a doubt. What do you do when the

great video, you can't stress these tips enough

Dude, I really like that you've been using a wide variety of plugins like Kontakt libraries, Guitar Rig, etc....especially applying GR to samples and non-guitar instruments. I've been doing that for awhile and always have loved the results. Nice to see a pro doing it too!

I've got a notebook with your name on it to write out ideas from your videos.

That mr pickles beat was exceptionally ass, but you made it fire

[lazyandslower]

whenever i see “music professionals” give tips, most of the time they haven’t really done anything with their music career and just post yt vids which makes me skeptical to listen to their advice. you letting me know that you’re a qualified artist who’s worked with many people and produced quality stuff makes me feel a lot better 👍👍

When you said some of my best friends are low energy I laughed out loud. Plus the beat fix for Stick Guy was dope. I feel like his version could still be used as the intro to segue into yours

That checklist is going on the inside door in my studio. This will help keep the mixing process focused on the complicated tracks. Much THX

hay loved ur vid man, but i have one comment in 10:43 about the stock plug-ins isn't just more about how u pick ur sounds from these stock plugins than just every stock plugin isn't suitable for beat making ? surely if u puck the right sound with the right fx-s it will always sound right .
I kinda get what u on with these plugins r more suitable for dance music but still u can always make any sound work with ur beat if u just pick the right one doesn't matter the plug in

Downloaded the PSD right away! Creators like this who help us out so hard are such a gem, thank you!!

whenever i have this issue i just find a reference track that somewhat resembles what i want my track to sound like. it's genuinely a cheat code to making good music because you're just copying what worked for someone else.
