Right now I have your attention (I hope) I hace got the old FL studios open again (reluctantly) and torturing myself to try and make a tune (50 times later)
Where do I start OK well I have tried (in vein) before to make something, anything, never get start to finish sometimes make my own drum patterns from hits, sometimes nice most times not so great when I go through thinking I know what I'm doing and boosting/cutting with EQ and pretty effects and laying out my pattern (sometimes 2 if I'm lucky) and then going on to find using FLkeys or Sytrus to no avail for a synth/pad wot not.
Then I would open 3xosc and try and think I was making the best bline in the world combining a sine (-24) with a saw or square (-12 maybe higher) and fart ass around making a bass that just sounds good in my head.
Well what's changed you ask (I bet you're not but hey) well as mentioned I re-installed FL for the same tragic purpose but this time I succomb to the free sample pack tasters from LM which were the bladerunner pack (which is where I'm drawing some insperation from as I love his stuff) Dread rec pack and another jungle pack.
I've taken a drum break from the BR pack as well as his signiture B-line (taken from a loop he's done, chopped a segment off and added a loop point so it tails a bit) as well as a sample from Patras "romantic call" (which I loved growing up) The reggae (probably bad) piano lick was made by myself in FLkeys.
I also have to give credit too @Moskit who has sourced some nice ragga sound clash samples that I can throw in.
So the point too this waffle is I would really reaslly appreciate any too all input, and you'll have to be delecate with me with some explination like I said earlier I would take an EQ and chop/boost without reason, gaining why you would do it (cut out below 80 for sub to fit etc) but applying it and probably wrong.
Just to let you understand what I'm working with well I recently purchased a build myself pc so have 16gb ram I3 6th gen processor asus MOBO and g710 graphics card, I was not planning on trying to make music again so never spent on a good AI but using onboard with my sennys HD25 Pro headphones.
Well if you ain't bored stiff yet and are actually insane enough to carry out my project with me then welcome onboard.
Anyway here it is just laid down at the moment as I would usually do to get a feel.
