 ….The Sonic Producer is one of the hottest beat makersout today in its price range. Hi….I am Dman from DaFlow Productions. We have been making rap beats, pop beats, gospel, r and b beats, hip hop beats for many years and consider ourselves professionals when it comes to producing, mixing, mastering and writing songs. We,  along with one of our associates, have directly and indirectly worked with a lot of big names in the industry like Paula Abdul …yea the one on American Idol…..as well as Randy also a judge on American Idol……James actually recorded some demo songs with Paula at her house. Other artist include….Lil John, Kutt Klose(Keith Sweats Last Girl Group)…Deon Farris, Baby Face, Birmingham J, Ruben Studdard American Idol winner a few years back, Nevel Brothers, Gucci Mane, and many more.

As you can see in the picture, we use a lot of equipment to achieve that just right sound,       but one of our secret weapons lately has been the Sonic Producer Beat machine, cause it is so easy to just pull up a few sounds and put together a quick slamming beat in minutes…then we usually build around it…..but in a lot of cases the Sonic Producer  holds the groove together solo. If  you are just starting out or if you have a full blown studio, you can benefit from the beats that are easily put together in a matter of seconds with this beat maker. WATCH THE VIDEO
  Only 30 dollars gets you this beat maker that you can make unlimited beats with using professional hard hitting sounds. No weak or low quality sounds that usually come stock with most beat makers.  You can hear how powerful and professional the Sonic Producer Sounds in the video playing at the bottom of the page…..very impressive for mp3 samples if I must say so myself…I usually don’t  feel this good about programs that are this cheap,  but…..the sounds are precise and focused and have distinct characteristics that give this beat maker a professional sound.

I wish the Sonic Producer would have been out when I first started making beats….I paid 300 dollars for my first drum machine which was a Roland 505 and it didn’t come anywhere near the versatility or quality of sounds you get with the Sonic Producer. If you are just starting out making beats, this is the perfect beat maker. It has an easy to understand interface. It comes with online videos to show you how to use it. How cool is that?!…….I could go on about this great sounding hard hitting beat maker…..but I advise you to just see for yourself….Just CLICK HERE TO VISIT THE OFFICIAL SONIC PRODUCER WEBSITE or on the sonic producer banner above and get started making your own slamming Hit beats.

  This is not a beat maker but a website that has thousands of  beats already made for you.    Out of all the instrumental sites we could find that let you purchase or even get free instrumentals, especially for hip hop and rap beats, this one got our highest rating…..visit the site yourself by clicking the banner…You pay only one low price and get to claim as many beats as you can handle for life….All slamming and top quality sounding.

……..We visited over 16  instrumental sites and discovered that this one out performed all the others because of the quality of there instrumentals as well as the value.  Best sounding hip hop tracks we could find for the price……These guys have been around producing beats for a while…so they know how to put together hit sounding beats.

If you are a rapper or singer and do not want to deal with making your own music, then it would be worth your while to at least visit this site by clicking here or on the beats 365 banner and listen to instrumentals this site has to offer.  Then determine for yourself  if the one low price is worth the quality of beats you will have to choose from……From what we have heard so far….this site has more than enough beats to satisfy even the most crucial type of listener…especially if its hip hop they are looking for……We have not had the chance to go through the other styles, but we are pretty sure they are just as good.

Although most of the other beat making sites did not measure up to the professional sound quality and overall arrangement of the instrumentals on the beats 365 web site,  the instrumental sites that did were a lot more expensive , and required you pay per download. This can get really expensive if you write a lot of songs or raps really fast…..Beats365 only requires a one time fee that allows you to download instrumentals for life….and the producers are constantly adding new beats weekly…….top quality instrumentals with a wide variety and new beats added weekly or daily makes this site a top pick!

 The MPC hardware beat maker is the most used drum machine/sampler  among professional producers for over 30 years, and for good reason, Nothing else sounds like it, and its easy to program with a wealth of ready made features all built into one portable package. No computer needed!

……….Out of all the beat makers I have ever tried….hardware or software…..the MPC serious of samplers are the best in my opinion……Especially when it comes to sound, durability, features, and ease of use. The MPC drum machines have been around for as long as I can remember, which is a long time…..lol…..but seriously……The MPC has been used on more hit records than any other studio instrument ever made….at least in the past……but it is still one to the most used instruments in professional studios even today.  Back in the day I use to dream of owning one…now I have two…..but could not afford my first one until they lowered the price.

In the eighties you could not get a new mpc for under 2 thousand dollars……average cost was even more than that…..but now they have one that was not too long ago released that you can get for around 500 dollars…….Its the cheapest one they have made yet…..but believe it or not…it sounds really good…. Unlike software beat makers that you use with your computer, the mpc comes with everything you will ever need to make beats with all built right in…pads to beat on, sound effects, a sequencer and much more all in one box…….The new ones also come with a large selection of samples you can use right out of the box……This was not the case many years back….In the olden days …you either had to purchase samples or make your own…..which you still can do today…but its nice to know that the MPC comes stocked with some good sounds to get you going right away.

What made and still makes the MPC one of the most requested beat makers is its sound……Nothing else sounds like it…..although I must admit computer software beat makers have come a long way since the start of them…….but the MPC sound was so unique in earlier days, that a trained engineer could hear it on a record and know a MPC was most likely used to program the drums and samples…….The MPC excels at producing drum tracks that have lots of punch. this is why rap beat makers and hip hop producers just love them…..but the MPC has such great converters that it is also the most used beat maker in just about every style of music.  This is due to the way the converters are made within the machine….but that’s a whole different subject…..just know that the MPC paved the way for having excellent sounding rhythm and sample tracks long before many producers out today where even born!

There where other beat makers out that sounded really good also, like the Yamaha spx 90 which was also pricey…..I heard one at a live show and it sounded amazing….I actually liked the sound of it more than the Mpc, on that show…..The Yamaha spx 90 was used on a lot of hit records back in the day also……It was soon beat out by the MPC ..and is now pretty much gone…I have not seen one in a while…which is a shame considering how good it sounds…..I think most of the reason for this was because the  MPC was easier to program with more sample memory and features for around the same price or less…which was still in the thousands back then when the spx was out……….at least this is the story I have heard over and over from professional producers who used it a long time ago… I also want to state that there have been a lot of new hardware beat makers that have entered the market that deserve mentioning like the new Roland line of sample drum machines that closely resemble the MPC……I have not worked on any of these machines so I cannot do an apples to apples comparison…..But I do know that the MPC is still one of the most used beat machines in the industry among professional producers, so that should tell you something, and if you are thinking about getting one.Since I have never actually programmed on the Roland look alikes ….I cannot say how they sound compared to the MPC, or how much easier or harder they are to navigate…..but why even wonder unless you just are a die hard fan of Roland…..might as well get  a MPC cause it has and still is a proven winner……….just click here or on the banner above if you are interested in purchasing a MPC…..the newest version of the MPC is the MPC 500 which cost a little over 500 dollars. This is unheard of considering the sound quality and features you get from a well know respected machine, not to mention you will be that much closer to sounding like the big boys with a MPC.  I like them so much, I have two…but one is all you really need.  You will be directed to zzounds online music store which has the best prices on all the new MPC series of beat makers, as well as a lot of other musical instruments, check it out!

IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD THE BIG DOG MPC DRUM MACHINE ALTHOUGH THE NEWEST ADDITION WHICH IS THE MPC 500 ONLY SELLS FOR A LITTLE MORE THAN 500 dollars…… THEN YOU MAY WANT TO CONSIDER GETTING A CHEAPER HARDWARE BEAT MAKER. THE Best Ones we have used are listed below….You can click on the drum machine picture or the  zzounds banner to get the best price on any of them……AND THEY SOUND PRETTY GOOD FOR A LOW PRICE.

I have always preferred the hardware beat makers to the software kind….Its just something about being able to actually put your hands on the device that is making the actual sound for you, in this case the beat maker…..If you are considering getting a hardware beat maker but cannot afford to pay much….I would suggest going with the Boss drum machines…..Boss drum machines are a division of the Roland line of drum machines and in our opinion offer the best sound variety, and quality for the price……especially if you are doing rap, rnb, or hip hop…..now for other kinds of music ……any of the other beat makers may be better suited ………….Although we mostly deal with Mpc beat maker now days….we have used many other drum machines in the past……and they all sound pretty good considering there prices…..The best thing to do is to try and visit a music store and listen for yourself…..If your music store does not carry a variety of smaller beat makers ….and you want to purchase a hardware beat maker…..I would suggest ordering one and just trying it out for yourself. You can always send it back if you are not satisfied…although this may be a bit of a hassle……but in our opinion, if you want a low budget hardware, hands on beat maker that sounds great….the boss line of drum machines is the way to go. ZZounds is currently stocking three different versions at different prices…….they also have some other great sounding brands of drum machines….such as the Alesis brand which is also a great sounding one……I have not personally heard there newest version…..but the older sr version was actually used on a couple of  hit records….or at least some of the sounds in it was…..I know this for a fact cause I own the Alesis myself…..but at any rate…..The final decision is up to you…and if you have a personal question about any of the drum machines you might be considering to buy……just leave a question in the comment box at the bottom of the page…….If you want to purchase a beat maker for lowest price…click the zzounds banner, they have the best prices on all music gear, and you avoid the extra cost of taxes if you order online in most states….some states are not eligible. ……..here’s to much beat making!

 Fruity Loops is widely used by a lot of hip hop producers who are just getting started and by experienced producers. This beat making program started out as a simple freeware program many years ago, but has since  matured into a full blown multitracking program with a wealth of effects and features. I give this program 4 and a half stars because of the higher price and necessity to get extra sounds if you want to sound like the big boys.

 There are many programs that have just as much power and features as fruity loops…some have even more…..but because of the nature of how fruity loops grew over the years, it has become the go to program for making beats that sounded pretty good for free  …..I believe its because fruity loops is one of the few beat making programs ever released that actually offered a free version that would do everything most paid software programs do.   This way of marketing coupled with an easy to use interface, a decent collection of stock sounds, and just enough of everything else needed to make professional sounding beats for free ,  made this program a house hold name among producers.

Even today you can download a free version of fruity loops and start making instrumentals almost instantly…..but there is one big catch….until you pay for the program…you will not be able to save any of your unfinished projects. This means that if you are working on a beat and the power goes out, or if you turn your computer off, you will loose everything.  Not a pleasant thought…….although a lot of producers deal with this delima just to be able to use the program for free………It is possible to save a completed version of whatever you are working on to disk…..I am not sure in what formats……or if all of this still holds true as of today……

Fruity loops has released a new version of its program for around 60  dollars……which is not bad considering the program can also be used as a multitrack recorder….comes with a number of soft synths in addition to the samples that has made this program what it is today.  I do know that in the past ….In order to get the really good sounds like you hear with the sonic pro, you had to purchase separate disk . I am not sure how good the sounds are with the newer versions of fruity loops…..but you will have to pay extra for more sounds if you are not satisfied with the ones that come stock with the program.

Personally….I would never use a program that erases anything I have spent time working on if the power goes out….or that will not save my unfinished work. The free version of fruity loops is designed to do these things on purpose. The reason there is a free version of fruity loops, is so you can get familiar with how the program works and hopefully want to buy it. Of course once you pay for it ….all the parts of the program that do not work in the free version will start to work, after you pay for it. I would advise anyone who is serious about making beats to try the free version for a short period of time and if they like working with it, go ahead and  pay for the program as soon as possible as opposed to just leaving there computer on all the time, just so there project does not get erased……which by the way is not a good thing in my opinion cause you are burning your computer out faster by leaving it on all the time.

There are many more excellent beat making programs on the market like reason, acid pro by sound forge, bpm, and many more……If you want to try out any of these programs, including fruity loops, you can click on the guitar center banner, and enter the name of it in the search bar once you get to the guitar center site. Guitar center and zzounds have the best prices I have seen so far on any type of music equipment. Guitar Center will even try to beat anyone elses price if you tell them you have found someone that is selling a particular item for cheaper price! If you want to try the free version of Fruity Loops just type Fruity Loops in the search bar at the top right of this page and you will see a list of places you can go to try the free version.
