[@dexobeatz2024]

Aye bro dont listen to these dudes telling you to do something different. At the end of the day, they the ones watching you and you not watching them. Each beat is unique and each track is hard as hell. You keep on diggin, I learn something new each time💪🏾

11:13 You hold shift + press up or down on your arrow keys to go through 808s like how he's doing I didn't even know you could do that I would always drag and drop my 808s into the channel rack little things like this speed your work flow up and makes things so much easier I swear

Yooo Dirkey 🔥🔥

[@AdamsGoingGhost]

Yo do a challenge video where you start with the drums before making the sample. It’s pretty fun to see what you come up with when you work backwards like that

[@Dirkey]

Bet!

[@piyushkhanna9554]

[@RebelMuzik-s7m]

Thankyou man

[@ToreyWilliams-r9f]

That beat 🔥

[@sebastiengorecki4254]

Loved the video bro, I got some video recommendations. You could do videos: -about music equipment -about specific plugins and how they work (more technical) -and maybe some more real life stuff, related to music I know thats not your usual content, but you could try changing it up if you like any of these recommendations, keep it up bro💪🏼

[@YehyaElkingGamer]

happy new year 2025 best tutorial ive watched for 2025 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤

[@NOKKYSOUND]

yo i got 2 keyboard shortcut questions, first what do you press to to instantly cut instead of having to draw the cutting line (20:20) and then what do you press to instantly fill empty spaces in the piano roll (10:41). hopefully you understand what I'm asking lmao, thanks in advance and fire video 🙏

[@DrumKits2030]

OMG kingggggggg

[@boshf_ern5115]

you doing it bro good shi

[@phinnroutier4965]

Yo, I'm a huge fan of your work, and you've helped me create the type of beats that I enjoy listening to and rapping over. But there's only one video for them: ethnic beats. Can you make more of them? (p.s. I know this might be a big ask, but could you show how to program flute riff/licks by using a keyboard of MIDI or something like that?) Thanks for reading (hopefully)

[@Boogie-m9l]
