I know that’s why I said maybe I shouldn’t say DAW. Only really mentioned it cus seems like FL is the norm and gets used the same

Nah keep them heavy 808 drums, let the nerds go listen to Tyler or sum lol

No its just people usng the same 3 sample packs

Doesnt matter if u on a daw or sp 1200

This to be honest. Plus most artist and producers copy each other because it's the easiest way to make a hit, instead of creating their own sounds.

Pusha T - FIFA

live hard drums

Nothing beats Compressed live drums with drum machine sounds sprinkled in

Like remaking the drums with your mouth and ptting it on top of the actual drums lol

(Ill post the link to where I get some sounds later when I find it)

Tyler does these drums too

I don’t f*** with you

Oh lmao bro I thought you was talking bout some plug in called “beatboxing”

That method works tho?

Best drum machine sounds in your opinion?

OG LinnDrum
Especially for layering and stretching/designing new drum sounds

It can give intersting results imo like sounding more organic and original

So basically you saying record live drums, and then layer them with drum machine sounds after

I feel you. I don’t have access to live drums and wanna figure out the best way to program drums to sound like they are live.

I already know about groove and swing to give it that human feel. But more so the best sound packs to utilize and other techniques to achieve that sound

One thing I like to do is to change the velocity of my sounds for it so sound like it was played by hand Ith different accents

Yup I do that too. Not sure what DAW you use but this really intrigued me and might get cus I use Push

Also any method you kinda have with velocity?

Im on Logic/Garageband I usuzlly set a velocity fork for each perc sound and do some slight variations

You have any songs to share ?

Btw the site where I find my drums :

samples.kb6.de/downloads.php

909s, Taiko style drums (might sound hard if done right), drums similar to the ones on law of attraction

That’s what I think sounds the best. It ultimately comes down to programming/sequencing/mixing properly for drums to sound good but that sound is hard to f*** up

Battery 4 has some really cool kits. When I’m tired of trap drums and trying to switch it up I use that. Also trap drums are changing. Like pierre 808s are the norm now but before it was always sub bass with a hard kick

The only guys with a distinct sound rn is wheezy and Jetson in the mainstream, everyone else is copying those dudes

this is a really good thread idea I’ve been thinking about this a lot
