Techniques to Remember When Creating Your Own Beats

Creating your own beats is considered such a remarkable talent.
Especially in the field of hip-hop music, creating beats is a defining
factor if the song is salable in the public or not. It is not surprising
to know then that more and more people are being interested with
beat-making. If you are one of these beat-making enthusiasts, then you
should bear in mind these techniques that will give you the edge when
creating your own beats.
Provided
that you already downloaded and used a credible beat-making soft ware,
the first technique is to explore all possibilities of sound effects
from the kick down to the clap and loop. This will give you expertise on
how to use these effects and when to add them on the intervals when
creating your own beats.
Adding a kick using the sound of the drum
set is the next technique when producing your own beats. A pumping kick
makes the sound livelier. Different tracks can be used like the bass
drum or kick drum, depending on your preferred sound.
Adding a
snare is the next technique for a more attention-grabbing beat creation.
Other effects that should be considered adding are the open and closed
hit hats that should be added in between the kicks and the snares
intervals. To give zest to the entirety of music, you can also add
another technique - the clap. These can be inserted in between kicks or
onto the snares for a more profound sound.
The last technique that
is worth pondering is adding a loop. At times, beats become redundantly
sounding. To avoid the boredom, adding three or more extra loops is
highly recommended. Remember though that the loops you choose to add
should complement the ensemble of sounds. Otherwise, you are just
creating noise, and not music. It is best to use only light sounding
instruments like light percussion. If high defining sound will be used
like kick and snare, the loop will actually cloud over the whole sound
and the whole music will fall apart.
These techniques are sure
ways to deliver the perfect sound, when followed correctly. Just
remember to always exceed the expectations both yours and the others
every time you create a new beat. With these techniques to use, good
quality instruments and tracks to use, and your own creative
imagination, you are on your sure way to create the perfect beat!
