One Blog, Two Purposes

Marcel — Fri, 23 Apr 2010 07:03:27 +0000

Hi, and welcome to the BeatFuse blog.

The primary intent of the blog on this website is to inspire and inform the next generation of successful music producers. That means you!

I will only post something if I think there is good potential benefit for you, the visitor. Therefore, the blog may not get updated in a consistent manner, but when I do drop something you can be sure it’s worth your time to watch/read.

In addition to the regular posts, I’ll also post special offers for BeatFuse products occasionally. These will be time-sensitive and removed altogether after a certain period.

Thank for your visiting BeatFuse.com!

Beat Maker Software

Marcel — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 11:21:31 +0000

When it comes time to pick beat making software, you have literally hundreds of choices. The process of picking just one can be pretty frustrating, especially if you have not been at this for a long time.

For those new to music production and beat making, I suggest one of the more popular programs. There are some very obscure solutions out there, and even some free software, which I would not recommend for a number of reasons. Cheap solutions include FL Studio (which can be downloaded for $99 — or more if you want some of the luxuries added by the high-end offerings), a full-fledged software package that allows you to compose, edit, mix and record. Producers like Soulja Boy have used it for hit records, and more recently Hit-Boy and Chase N. Cashe, who created Lil Wayne and Eminem’s single Drop the World with it.

So which beatmaker do you go for? Well, my above recommendation is a good start for minimal investment, but you can certainly start with something a little more expensive. It’s all about how good you work with the program. Some people just don’t like FL Studio. Make me a promise today that you will try the software before you buy; you’re going to be upset with yourself if you get off to a bad start because the software doesn’t click with your work-flow. The different beat maker software solutions operate in different ways, so you’ve just got to get a hold of the one that works best for you. Some more programs often recommended by hit makers are: Propellerheads’ Reason, Cubase and Sonar.

Stay tuned for a video detailing the differences between these beat maker software solutions.

Drum Machine Samples, Sounds

Marcel — Mon, 29 Mar 2010 06:19:08 +0000

Since the ’80s, the drum machine has played a pivotal role in urban, dance and techno music production. Many beat makers cite drum machines as having a certain warmth that software has yet to replicate to a satisfactory degree.

From Ensoniq to Roland and AKAI, the choices were numerous, and the sonic character of the different models was highly sought-after. Some genres were influenced by the work-flow of these devices more than others, and the distinctive drum machine sound has pervaded a substantial portion of hip hop records made over the last three decades.

Even to this day, with digital music production more accessible than ever, producers are turning to drum machines (or rhythm machines as they used to be called) for that sound. There is something magical about using these. If you can’t get your hands on one of these legendary boxes — and I don’t blame you, a lot are quite expensive! — the next best thing would be to get the drum machine samples exactly as they came out of them, with no other processing and recorded with absolute precision.

BeatFuse is doing such a thing. It’s going to take a while, and we’re well underway. The world’s most faithful drum machine sounds collection will be here soon.
