Another DOPE session everyone 🔥🔥🔥 this song came out FIRE!! Links to my merch, vocal template, and sample packs used in this session in description 👏🏻

[@1Sancho00_daboss]

If I were a good microphone , what would my name be ?

[@KSHMRmusic]

Go Karra!! Love it

[@iamkarramusic]

Thanks for providing the community with the most amazing samples 🔥

[@makobeatzhaiti]

I always find pleasure watching KARRA doing his stuff. It's Crazy Rap though!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@iamkarramusic]

So happy you enjoy my sessions! 🎧

[@DjjkrisRTC]

This helps when I’m feeling uninspired in the studio. Keep it up

[@iamkarramusic]

Yay!! So happy you enjoyed it. Many more to come! 🎉

[@ReidStefanMusic]

Those 808s are too DISRESPECTFUL 🥵

[@iamkarramusic]

The most disrespectful in the game 🔥

[@richertz]

So F'n cool, Kudos to the production of this on every level!

[@iamkarramusic]

Thank you!! i think this might be my fav session so far 🙈

[@jacksp8de]

Dope! This is more like Pop Rap than Hip Hop IMO but it sounds Great! Love the shots and editing. Switched to a Prism I see. I heard good things about that.

[@iamkarramusic]

I know it’s hard to define my music with one genre so I always try and pair it with the closest thing! Prism sounds lush 👏🏻

[@jacksp8de]

@@iamkarramusic I feel you! I'm the same way. I settled on Alternative Hip Hop and Dark Pop. Much blessings to you, you inspire me!!!

[@johndecelien]

Did you know that Justin Bieber and Chris Brown Recorded their vocals on the ELA M251?

[@iamkarramusic]

I did actually! 😊

[@hey_maurice]

Video? 🔥 Beat? 🔥 Vocals? 🔥 You’ve definitely got it dialed in! Out of curiosity, how long was this studio session? Hours? Half day? Full day? Multiple days?

[@nataribaek8115]

M.I.A. & Fergie vibes combined✨i like what you came up with❣️❣️

[@roqsabeatz]

This helps build my confidence when you simplify the process like this. Go Karra!

[@iamkarramusic]

That’s why I make these! Don’t overthink it 😉

[@alexissanchez140]

What Kontakt library is that flute please?

[@OneOkami]

That was sweet, Karra. Not just the song itself but the quality and pacing of this video production of your making of it.

[@iamkarramusic]

Reid and I put a lot of love into this one! I’m glad you enjoyed it ❤

[@oussamabasti8300]

Wow ❤❤❤ i don't even know what to say this is mind blowing ❤ the flute,percs 808 ... That's something else 😭🥰 ur the best

[@LionOfKingston]

Should have a new segment on your movement , where you choose a random underground artiste to help them up. That would be a true gift in return to the community ❤

[@iamkarramusic]

I would love to expand and do sessions with other musicians!

[@elinkpizz8310]

I want to learn how to mix and master

[@juniordemelvevo7646]

Karra where do i finde all the sample your using ?

[@iamkarramusic]

WholeLoops.com and KSHMR sample packs 🔥

[@Stummpmusic]

A question: can you get MPC quality music from using the software from an iPhone, using a Volt interface or a soundcard?

[@NineRecordz]

Nhìn bộ móng tay là biết có người khác làm cho sẵn ! Bà này chỉ diễn thôi :)

[@ericrichardson7681]

This beat goes hard

[@flstudiotipshindi05]

Big fan 😊❤

[@iamkarramusic]

i appreciate it love 💗

[@PrinceThurmMusic]

Is the song out?

[@eddwardmusic]

I know I may be late, but anyway. First, really cool to see the process from 0 to 100%, it's really informative for those who struggles for years. I have a question, if you can help me please. I record the vocals, and after the question is, should I mix the vocals in stereo or mono? Should the verse always be in mono and only harmony/chorus in stereo? Or everything in stereo and just adjusting the vocals more wide or to center or left and right?

[@hipethenomad]

In my learning i'd say keep the vocals in mono and have your effects in stereo, have any panning or the harmonies also mono and panned (If you can manage, Have the harms /bvs all routed to a Stereo bus and simply pan the original tracks ) This helps you process them all together but place them where you want in the stereo field. Hope this helps!

[@iamleoneljimenez]

Hey Karra, I was wondering what VHS camera did you use at 0:21? Thank you

[@forevertitus]

Fergie vibes

[@manlust5439]

[@AnwaarAliOfficial]

what do you think sounds better the prism titan or the mt 48?

[@iamkarramusic]

they're very close! I use Neumann for portable recording, and prism in-studio

[@code_2377]

You have grown too much we should work on a project for fun

[@iamkarramusic]

Anything can happen!

[@makobeatzhaiti]

INTERESTING!!!

[@oussamabasti8300]

I like that low pitch vocal ... How did you do that ? Hope you make a video about tricks like that if you got time ❤

[@iamkarramusic]

I simply duplicated my Lead Vocal, then transposed those duplicate clips down -12 using Complex Warp Mode

[@oussamabasti8300]
