Amir Perry Congratulations you are very good at what you do, greetings from Colombia.

[@amirperrymusic]

Thank you David! 🙏🏾

[@marcusjohnson1952]

I love it how so many sounds can come together like that and make a dope beat. Also at the end great point about pushing through personal barriers to do what you love, even through lack of motivation. Your a great producer bro keep the dope episodes coming.

I love your videos Man and your drive

[@amirperrymusic]

Thanks man. I appreciate you.

[@thefamilyseed2415]

Nice !!! It's amazing what you can create from a dark or unmotivated space ...that beat has high positive vibes to it ...I love it when a real musician is mixed with technology And I hear hael princess Leah on that track ...super talented artist who is rapping with intention intelligence and purpose !!! She is real handy with the pen and spits 🔥 fire ...Thanks for the upload!!

[@amirperrymusic]

Thanks again for tuning in. I was feeling really unmotivated but I think the chord progressions just took me to another place. Music has a way of doing that to you! Again, thank you for watching.

[@luvidfrankkelyslinares1551]

woooooow, that was very hard, I don't quivoque, you are the best, wooooooow man, that's hit, sounds already finished processed all full, I'm working hard, I'm doing two beats a day and knowing well my sound library and studying more knowing my daw and not letting ideas escape, what ahun is not done is a complete instrument and I almost always do only the beats, do you think it is more convenient to do the complete instrument than just the beats? I don't know, I thought that if I only did beats for a while until I made very good beats I could make the arrangement better in the future, but now I'm a little confused about whether or not it's better. I would be very helped by your professional opinion on the matter because I think it could be a mistake but I'm not sure, thank you master you are the best, indisputable of all the beats maker that I've seen. God bless you very much.

[@amirperrymusic]

Thanks! I usually finish the beat first and then work on the arrangement.

[@gidzzahc9747]

Man u make dem beats like so easy.. eish. Im looking for of your tutorials mate.

[@amirperrymusic]

Preciate that man. 💯💯 You'll be able to do the same. It's just all about practice. It'll start coming to you easily after awhile.

[@gidzzahc9747]

@@amirperrymusic i like the way u narrate in yo starting of the beat, the melody thing and end up ,,BOOM a big tune. I will be learning from Scratch and i will tell u after 2 weeks if i can do that. Thanx.

[@amirperrymusic]

gidzzah C dope! Let me know how it goes.

[@ryansmiley2492]

I watched this video yesterday after doing a bunch of yard work and family been sick all week. Man I did not feel Like doing anything until I got in the room. But, the DAWs kept crashing. Pro tools wouldn’t even open. I was like nope, not tonight.

[@dereksheppeard6373]

You are very talented, I hope to master my skills one day.. Good job very nice beat.

[@amirperrymusic]

Thanks man. It's all about practice. Keep honing your skills and you'll get there. It's all about consistency.

[@ViceVersaMusik1]

Chris Brown would kill this beat!!

[@thomasgillmore8459]

I've been digging your videos. Your words at the end of this one resonated with me. I've been struggling, I like all types of music (grew up a pop punk kid though) and I work in the industry but so often I struggle to even get in front of tools and make something. Just the other night I stayed up all night grinding out a pop track and honestly, it felt good. It's nice to know that even you struggle sometimes cause you make fire beats like nothing (at least in the videos). I'll make sure to share your content with all my friends who use Pro Tools to create music. The 808 video alone has is going to be an invaluable tool to making more modern type music. Keep it up!

[@amirperrymusic]

Thanks Thomas. Yea, we all struggle sometimes. Gotta keep pushing though! I appreciate you taking out the time to write that message though and I'm glad you dig the videos.

[@musiquecreation4135]

good work

[@chrisjennings5731]

No doubt bro! See you at the top!!

[@arkmusic7408]

nice beat.. for me is short of a few things to bring it to live. a conga live percussion or find a loop. and a bongo for your transaction part. two shakers . and tom for low ends sounds. high hats don't sit well with such beats.

[@amirperrymusic]

I could see that. Thanks for the feedback and thanks for watching! I appreciate it.

[@jailman2533]

Yeah I saw your video today, but one thing I point out. Watching how to videos over and over is confusing. Your pro tools beat making video caught my ear where years of this search been a grind. Basically I want to create my beats and become more creative. Where to from here? What do you suggest for my situation.

[@itsShay_E]

So many Nigerian artists would be fire on this! just got on you channel about last week, keep up the good work. Also if you could make a beat using just xpand2, that'll be great.

[@amirperrymusic]

I'll have to do one! Thanks for rocking with me.

Love this. I just downloaded Sylength1, but it doesn't seem to have the Mallet of Corallium as a preset. Do you know where I can get it?

[@amirperrymusic]

I think that particular sound is in a preset pack my boy gave me. I'm not sure what the name of it is though. My bad bro. Next time I'm on I'll try to find it and let you know.

[@72Dexter72Manley72]

I liked the beat My Man. I enjoy listening to your creativity. We always have to focus harder when we are going through things in life. Life is not supposed to be easy. But when we are mentally strong we can get the job done, when other people are all over the place. People will look to you because they know you are calm and you can focus through it.

[@eu.clides]

Hey ! What plugin you used for the bass sound?

[@amirperrymusic]

Euclides Gomes the plugin is called Serum. It's a preset called TH_bass_25. It can really be achieved by using a regular sine bass with some distortion. Just so happens I picked that sound this day though. Hope that helps!

[@LEVIJmusic]

Loving this beat🔥

[@amirperrymusic]

Going to check them out! Thanks!

[@bboymac84]

Respect for making this beat despite how you were feeling. Also the transitions just needed some stutter snare rolls. Other than that the loop sounded fantastic!!

[@amirperrymusic]

Yea, I can hear that in there! I may need to go back and add those. Thanks for watching though man. 🙏🏾

SR Zyonborg-070 that is correct!

[@rythmiq]

Super fire! Dopest yet! Love this whole thing.. when they baseline got laid I almost jumped out of my chair. While difficult in practice the way it fit into the beat was simply magical as if it played itself so dope! Fire!!! Keep it coming bro!

[@amirperrymusic]

Thank you bro. I feel like the chord progressions in this one just kinda makes the beat make itself, if you get what I mean. Usually I control the beat making process but the beat controlled me this go around. Lol

Man this channel is 🔥🔥new to producing so any chance of a midi controller breakdown? How you assign your pads/keys Edit: this dope series gained a new sub btw 👏

[@amirperrymusic]

Thanks for checking out the channel man! Glad you dig it. As far as my midi controller, I honestly don't do any special assigning or mapping. I basically just use it as is out the box.

[@icegamestunnin123]

@@amirperrymusic So any luck mapping out the faders and panning knobs on the akai? Heard its near impossible to use on protools.

Oh I'm not sure. I've never tried it.
