Grammostola Rosea skreiv: >> Ok, nice thanks. And how do you make your beats and with which software? For the drumbeats I use Hydrogen, and Ardour for longer samples/loops, scratches and voice/instrument recordings. I might also throw in SEQ24 and a softsynth if I want some of that. > And the scratching? Do you use samples, how do you get them? They're by me, done on a good ol' Technics SL1210, one fine piece of equipment, with actual vinyl records. As Dave pointed out you can also use Terminator X, which is one fine piece of software. If you already got turntables, but want to use non-vinyl samples, I strongly recommend xwax: http://www.xwax.co.uk/ Be aware, though, if your music gains momentum you might experience that the fellow hiphopers you took samples from demand royalties for the samples used. Even more so with 70s/funk/etc artists who don't realise that the main reason they're still selling records is that they're being sampled. You can solve this problem by only using samples from works with permitive licensing, for example one of the Creative Commons licenses. To me I realise my music is illegal, so that's why I've called the collection "Illegal Musikk", and I'm ready to take any consequences of that - call it art ;) -- Ringheims Auto - Fri musikk for bilstereo! http://ringheimsauto.org _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
