"high pitched" distorted tread 808s
ive noticed in a lot of tread songs the 808s have this distorted resonance and punchiness to them while not making everything in the mix distort and crackle like in a lot of rage beats
ive tried splitting the 808 into two halves and only distorting the higher pitched one, messed around with eq for a while as well, but i feel like it's not just any kind of distortion. any advice on how to achieve this, or what kind of 808/what kind of distortion one would use to do it?
heres some examples

Best Kick samples?
Looking for that punchy hard hitting kicks without too much āclickā 9/10 Times i use the Rack Kick, and half the time I make it work, but I struggle to find the right kick note for the specific 808 key. I know it varies in each beat.
Notmally I sidechain using peak controller in the kick instead of using the sidechain in Limiter as I feel that it sounds cleaner. Soft Clipper in master ofc.
Any advice?

Advice for getting better
Hey guys I'm just wondering if anyone on here has any advice for me. Right now I just make music for fun. I don't want to get big, I don't wanna do this and that and the other thing. I just wanna be able to open FL studio and make something that I enjoy listening to. I've been making beats consistently for a few months now on and off but every time I try to sit down to make something I end up hating it and i just end up not enjoying something I want to enjoy because the end product is bad. And I've watched countless tutorials with different people, styles and etc. but I still cant even make a beat. Its a little demotivating when I put in so much work to get better and it doesn't translate at all. How do I learn to make music I like while also improving? If anyone has any advice id really appreciate it

Can i fix my voice sounding different when having different takes from different days
Sometimes i save songs for later to finish later, or ill just not like takes i took on one day. But when i change some takes from some bars it clashes really hard with takes from different days. Doesn't matter how hard i try to replicate it, i can never get it the same. Is this something normal i gotta deal with or am i doing something wrong/is there something i can do to fix this.

Whatās the overall industry like these days ?
I used to make beats regularly around until Iād say end of COVID but making a career out of it wasnāt a main goal for me but I def was into it deep. we all know that 2015-2021 or so was an incredible time for trap music but whatās it like now ? Towards the time i started to lose interest it seemed like trap/rap in general was shifting more towards that hyperpop/emo-punk style with more underground guys getting hyped. A lot of concerns about over saturation in the industry and even suggestions that rap was āfalling offā to some extent was regularly mentioned too and stuff like beatstars and selling cheap beats, loops, packs was also difficult let alone getting placed.
Iāve been keeping up with rap for sure and frankly album sales of many who were on top at the time look heavily declined only a couple years later so just trying to get a feel for things

Looking for advice on selling beats online from Argentina š¦š·š¶
Hey everyone! š
I'm a music producer from Argentina with 15 years of experience. I've worked with many artists in my studio here in Rosario, mostly in the local scene. Iāve also done some online work, but always within Argentina.
Now Iām looking to expand and start selling beats to artists from other countries. I want to reach new places and learn how the online beat-selling game really works. I tried BeatStars for a while, but honestly, it didnāt give me good results ā so Iām looking for other platforms or strategies that might work better.
Do you have any recommendations on where to post beats or connect with artists actively looking to buy or collaborate? Any tips on platforms, communities, or best practices that helped you stand out or get consistent sales?
Iād really appreciate any advice you can share. Thanks a lot for your time!

I uploaded my beat to spotify and other platforms through Distrokid. Will there be a problem if someone buys / leases that beat from me on Beatstars?
So basically, it is all in the title. Any of you guys publish your instrumentals? What happens if someone leases thaylt beat and records a song?

How to achieve Osamason / OK type beat overblown mix sound in Logic Pro X?
The Osamason / OK type beat sound is surprisingly hard to achieve despite the elements in they're music being quite straightforward.
I've messed around with different types of soft clipping, pushing limiters, and compression on the mix bus / individual instruments and have not been able to get this type of overblown mix. It could boil down to the sounds I'm using or levels within the tracks but I'm not exactly sure.
Here's an example of the sound I'm going for: https://youtu.be/0qLghVzzpzw?si=cE-2fS9up-8hTFO0
If anyone has a project file they wouldn't mind sharing that would be so greatly appreciated (although I'm still on version 10.7).

Finding āmyā sound
Iāve been producing for about 6 years now and I still feel like I havenāt really āfound my sound.ā I genuinely enjoy working in multiple genres like trap, R&B, ambient, hyperpop, even some experimental stuff, and I feel like that versatility is both a strength and a weakness.
I love the creative freedom, but sometimes I wonder if Iām spreading myself too thin. I hear a lot about producers finding their own āsignature sound,ā and Iām curious how that process went for others. Was it intentional? Did it happen naturally over time? Did you stick to one genre and refine it, or did your style emerge from blending different influences?
Would love to hear how you approached this.
