10 Beat Making Techniques To Become A Hip Hop/R&B Producer

Course details

So, you went out in brought thousands of dollars worth of production equipment. You turn on your DAW or hardware set-up and randomly select sounds as part of the foundation of an untitled track. After spending countless hours constructing a track with no specific focus, you finally settle on an idea and move on to the next track.

Contrary to the belief, a beat maker and producer are not one in the same. There are many differences between being a beat maker and a producer. A beat maker comes up with beats and rhythmic elements on top of samples or other instruments. A producer may not create beats at all but he or she can bring bring in musicians and tell them what to play and how to play it. He or she understands the basics of music theory and production psychology. Making the conversion from beat maker to producer can be a difficult path, especially if you don't know the necessary steps.
