 | I didn't listen to your clip, but in general, the response to your question is: Practice. Learn your tools. Learn your room and your monitors. Practice some more. Maybe get yourself an internship, or hire a pro to work on your stuff and see if you can't pick his/her brain while your stuff's getting worked on. Then go home and practice. For like five or six years. Then you might be getting close... There's no easy answer. If there were, I wouldn't have a job, and neither would anybody else around here.

| lol if having drums as good as dj quik was something you could teach someone in one thread, hip hop would sound a lot better these days. it takes years and years of hard work- one thing i do know is as of the trauma record he mixed everything analog.

A well treated room, and a set of sub-$1000 monitors can beat out a setup using an untreated sounding mess of a room and a set of $1000 and above monitors anyday. | |

Now if you're on the move it's a better choice. If you have your own studio, you'll care more about the room itselft and choose whatever you want as speakers. Most important of all, get a crappy sound system to compare your stuff where you know "commercial" songs and your favorite artist's songs just bang whatever the sound volume is. Every good studio has at least this kind of A/B setups... Good studios I said.

| Those drums sound awful...they are severely clipped as if it's built-in that they are played on a nasty car stereo cranked to 11. If that's you're idea of "great," just turn up the bass on your drums and send them through a limiter cranked to a -12dbFS threshold or so. One of the common limiters (e.g. the L2) will be making this particular clip characteristic, or if not, maybe these are just digital overs allowed to clip (after your limiter you can gain up the sound further). |
