If you’ve ever thought about making a rap beat, you’re not alone. The rap industry has grown substantially and with all this money everyone wants to get their own slice of the pie. It only takes watching a music video on MTV to dazzle you with all the bling bling, or hearing about the latest scandal involving Eminem’s relationship with Mariah Carey to turn you into rap music. And it’s no wonder so many people want to produce their own beats, after all, they already have the main apparatus they need: a computer.
You can turn your computer into a beat making machine simply by getting the right beat making software. This software can cost a lot of money depending on what you get. For example, an audi workstation might cost you several hundred dollars, but there is also other beat software you can access to make your beats online.
Obviously, your beat making software should have a user-friendly interface that makes it easy to mix and master your beats on tracks. But getting into some less obvious qualities, I should…
So what are some good qualities that this software should have?
1. Owner Reliability
Providers of this software should be actively looking out for you when you purchase their beat making software. What this means to you is that they must have customer service to answer any questions you may have. They should also have some kind of community where you can talk to other beat makers so you know you’re not alone. In addition to this, they should always provide you with updates and upgrades as they continually improve their software.
2. Online capacity
The advantage of allowing you to make beats online is very significant. For example, you can access online storage and doing so will save some space on your computer, which is great if you have a slow computer. On top of that, if your computer catches a cold or has a virus or whatever, you can access yourself better through any other computer, like your friends and neighbors who will lend you theirs. Also, it would be horrible to work with an extra slow computer while trying to make some hot beats.
3. Various collections
Your beat making software should absolutely have a large diverse collection of sounds to aid you in your quest to make the hits. You should have a wide range of instruments and instrument sounds at your disposal to empower and guide you in creating the perfect beat. There can be loops, samples, and even beats made by current music producers. But what you absolutely want are those instrumentals. You may want to have all the instrumental sounds you can think of. Guitar strings, Spanish chords, drum boxes, you name it and you should have it.
