Thank you, Navie I find your explanation thorough and clear. Thanks for the drum kit, I thought you forgot. You have the best trap tutorials, keep it going!

The cowbell is used a lot in memphis rap and phonk. It's pretty tonal, so it's usually pitched around like a counter melody.

[@NavieD]

Oooooh boy do I love me some phonk

You can always tell how passionate someone is about a topic when they're constantly talking with their hands lol. Thanks for helping us to learn what you love Navie!

Hahah I can't control what my hands are doing

This is the exact video I was looking for! Thanks again Navie, these videos are amazing!

Excellent, glad I was able to help Darian!

This channel is wayyy underrated these tips are really nice

[@NavieD]

Ayyy thanks Apollo!

[@legitios5774]

Watched one of your videos implemented some of your tips into my beats and amazingly it sounded so much better thanks bro

[@NavieD]

Hahah awesome man, which video did you find helpful?

[@arnaudnieuwoudt5211]

I am finding your videos to be extremely useful. Solving many issues that I have been having for weeks. I'm sharing to my producer friends. You are covering all the things producers struggle with. For instance in this video you addressed multiple points which I would have normally had to look at 10 other videos to find the same info. You my new favourite!!

[@NavieD]

Hahah thank you Arnaud! I appreciate you spreading the word to your pals. Trying to grow this channel as best I can!

[@arnaudnieuwoudt5211]

@@NavieD Just keep doing what you are doing and it will for sure. You don't waste time on gimmicks and trying to be cool. You are giving us what we need and that is very valuable. I really do appreciate your content and the way you do it.

[@arnaudnieuwoudt5211]

@@NavieD let me put it this way. You have solved more issues that I had with production in the last 2 weeks since I subscribed, then watching tutorials elsewhere in the last 4 months.

[@illustrous6851]

you will be a succesful youtuber!! thanks for the tutorial man

[@NavieD]

I hope so! Thank you for the support

[@idesel]

Great video as always Navie D. It got rid of a lot of confusion I've been having when programming drums. Yes, please do the video on layering kicks.

[@NavieD]

Glad to hear that it helped clear things up! I think I am going to record that video this weekend

Glad to hear I was able to help brobro!

[@alexunder_ground]

these are quality lessons 👌

[@NavieD]

Thank you Al! And also thank you for popping by the livestream on Saturday

[@fvilxre.]

I personally play around with the envelope to remove the kick from the 808, makes it sound a lot smoother and it removes the clicking sound that you can hear when using the smp start knob.

[@ashokflash]

Great visual and good explaned. give more videos please, i want to know complete FL

[@RapTrapBeats]

awesome video mane

[@NavieD]

Thank you brobro

[@munibrickmafiarecordz4287]

Wassup bro keep up the great job making these tutorials. Very thorough and straight to the point🤟🏾

[@NavieD]

Thanks man, I try my best to be concise and not waste peoples time

[@veryfitting]

I'd use a small amount of sidechain combined with some transient shaping to allow the kick to pop out more.

[@TheGameSharer4U]

New to this and absolutely love these videos. Some of the best man subscribed

Hey man glad I found your channel u are really putting out quality content appreciate it mate 💪 ..can you do a beat from scratch video please ...

[@NavieD]

Thank you Gaby! Yeah I have been trying to figure out the best way of doing it. I like the explain concepts and go in deep (as you may be able to tell), so a start to end beat video would end up being like 5 hours long hahah

[@olialimusic]

[@NavieD]

Hahah thank you Pref! 👌 You're a legend

[@craigdaubbeats-rapinstrume9185]

One think I've learned about percussion sounds is not to use them by habit. Not every instrumental requires them. I used to always move on to percussion after I got all my other drums done by habit and 99 percent of the time it led to an over cluttered beat with sounds in places they didn't belong or dealt out of place. And what's weird is while your making the beat it doesn't sound out of place at all. You'll listen a couple days later and think, why did I do that? Lol So now I don't use them by habit. I only do it if I feel like there's something missing or I'll use a percussion element in place of something else. That can sound cool at times. One thing is for sure tho. It is extremely easy to over do it, especially when you're in that zone where you just want to keep adding and adding. That's why taking breaks is important. Sometimes you just gotta break out of that mode for a moment and listen to something else, or nothing at all. This type of thing might not affect everyone. I have ADHD and anyone else who does knows exactly what I'm talking about. Constant racing ideas and if you don't get them all out now you lose them forever. 🤣 It's a blessing and a curse at the same time.

[@ChiragR-007]

your videos are very helpful thank you

[@airportsecurityaustria182]

The "bad" hihat sounds kinda cool, like an army march vibe sort of lol

[@kxshav2395]

Helpful 💯✅

[@NavieD]

Thank buddyyyyyyy

[@FacundoTupac]

Great vid, Navie, you're bringing a lot of value through your teachings. I'd like to ask if you could do a tutorial from start to 'end product' on getting lofi drums using just the samples in your pack, indicating which ones they are. as the sound design is not the part I like to spend more time on, rather than on playing and composing. Also, I've been working with Reaper instead of FL studio and it's native sampler doesn't seem to handle velocities in your samples at all, or could it be my mistake?

[@NavieD]

Thank you man! Typically if I want lofi drums, I actually start with using acoustic drum sounds like from a drum break (which would be illegal for me to distribute unfortunately). I plan on doing something similar though where I show typical FX chains to get normal drums to sound really gritty and dense, so hopefully that will help. As for your Reaper conundrum, sorry I don't use Reaper to produce so I am unfamiliar

[@FacundoTupac]

@@NavieD Cool, will be looking forward to it! A tutorial for dummies like me haha

[@shivscholar8839]

Hey Navie D ✋🏻 I'm learning a lot from you ❤ very happy cuz I'm a real beginner and didn't know anything about music until I found you 👌🏻👌🏻 it's a request if u can upload subtitles too or if u don't go fast saying your important magical things 🌟you're cool you're clear but u can understand it's hard for some people who lives in the different borders like me 😄 Love from India ❤

[@NavieD]

Thank you man! I should try to look into a subtitle service to add them in, good idea

[@JD-gt9bd]

Hey. Great vid. Can u make a vid on the best plugins cause I recently got some money. Both vsts and effects

[@NavieD]

Hmm that would be a good idea. Just to give you a quick opinion, Omnisphere, Soundtoys Bundle, FabFilter Bundle would be the first things I would rebuy if I had to start over from scratch.

[@JD-gt9bd]

Navie D. Yaa I was really thinking about omisphere. That would be the only thing u could get tho. I was also thinking about the soundtoys bundle since it’s on sale now but I don’t think I’m advance enough to use those effects since I’ve only been making beats for 5 months and still mix in earbuds. I would buy monitors but then it seems like I’ll need all of this sound treatment for my room
