How To Make A Progressive Trance Beat. Actually the title should say How to make a beat that can be used in a progressive trance because the drum beat by itself doesnt necessarily determine the genre.

First of all, creating a nice sounding trance beat or ANY beat in that matter starts from choosing a right combination of a good quality samples. Choosing The Drum Samples. In electronic dance music, well produced drum beat is like 7. ESSENTIAL to select a good samples. And I dont just mean that theyre good in terms of bitrates and such, but also that they fit together.

Some people like to layer two kickdrums together, but this requires some filtering in order to make them to work together. I usually dont layer kickdrums. I have a wide range of kicks in my sample collection and 9. I can find a one that works as is. If youre interested on layering kicks heres a quick guide choose a kick with a nice top end click and kick with a good low end oomph and use high pass filter to cut the low end out of the clicky kick and low pass filter to cut the high end out of the oomph kick and mix the two together. Trance beat needs a clap as well. With claps I do occasionally use layering so Ill pick two different kind of claps Im also going to show you a little trick what you can do with claps and a snare. All of these are going to be layered together for fuller sounding clapsnare combination. Hihats are also essential for a good beat so Ill choose a bunch of them as well. Closed hihats. Choosing the right drum samples is really the key here. Adobe Photoshop Cs2 Serial Number on this page. Finding a working combination is a bit of a trial error, but after that, its mostly just fine tuning with volume levels and equalizers. Okay. After listening a bunch of samples I found few good ones and first thing I do is I drop each sample to an empty Sampler channels in the Step Sequencer, rename the channels to keep things organized and assign each to its own free Mixer track. Now, to the groove makinBuilding The Beat. In progressive trance the tempo is usually around 1. Ill set the project tempo to 1. Next, Ill extend the current pattern to 8 beats per bar. This is just because one of the samples will be used only once per bar and using standard 4 beats per bar pattern it wouldve been a bit too repetitive so Ill just make it 8. Using longer patterns allows to create more complex sequences per pattern without the need to add new pattern for each variation. Extending the pattern length is done by using that little box at the top left corner of the Step Sequencer place the mouse cursor on that box, hold the left button and drag. I also rename the pattern to Drums to keep things organized. Now, Ill just draw a steady four on the floor rhythm with the kick. That means a kick on steps 1, 5, 9, 1. As for kick mixer settings, Ill leave its volume level to 0. Bonanno Part 2'>Bonanno Part 2. B. Thats what I usually do leaving the kick loudest and then mixing the other instrument so that they support the kick and wont compete with it. In dance music, kick should really stand out and therefore Give power to the kick is a good rule of thumb when making beats. Kick. mp. 3Okay. Back to Step Sequencer and Ill place the clap Punchy clap to steps 5,1. This particular clap sound requires to drop its volume level to 2. B otherwise it wouldve been too dominant compared to kick. Also, I drop a Fruity Parametric EQ 2 PEQ2 to its mixer track and using the high shelf filter I boost the 4. Hz area and above about 2. B to give it a little clarity. Punchy Clap. mp. Next, Im going to lay another clap with the Punchy clap. I call it the Loose clap because it sounds loose and not so tight. Now heres the trick I mentioned instead of using Step Sequencer for creating a sequence for the Loose clap, I go to its Piano Roll view and draw a short notes of C5 on spots 1 0. Then, I select all the notes, hold the ALT key to bypass the snapping and drag the notes a bit to left so that they start SLIGHTLY BEFORE the exact spot. So the first note starts at 1 0. This makes the clap slightly out of sync with the kick and will make the claps section sound fatter. Neat little trick which usually works best with tiny or loose claps. I also drop the Mixer track volume level of the Loose clap to 1. B. audio http howtomakeelectronicmusic. Loose Clap. mp. 3Im going to layer one more sound with the two claps snare. First, in the Step Sequencer I place it to steps 5, 1. Also, my ears tell me that I need to drop its volume level a bit so Ill head to Mixer and bring its volume down to 2. B. The snare also requires equalization as it has too much life around the 1. Hz area so Ill drop a PEQ2 to its mixer track and using high pass filter and a steep curve I roll off everything below 1. Hz. I also boost the 3k. Hz area by 1. 8d. B with a bandwidth of 4. Snare. mp. 3Okay. The kick claps section sounds pretty nice so far, but I will add a little twist to the groove I clone the snare, reverse it and create a reverse snare sequence that leads to every second and fourth claps. Cloning is done by right clicking on the snare channel in the Step Sequencer and choosing Clone. Ill rename it to Snare reverse and also assign it to a separate free mixer track because it may require a bit different volume settings than the original snare. Next, Ill reverse it. Reversing is done by opening the Channel settings and clicking Reverse under the Precomputed effects. Then I head to the Mixer and copy the PEQ2 settings used in the original snare mixer track to the Snare reverse track. This is easily done by clicking the FX slot options in the original snare mixer track and from the menu click holding and dragging the Save preset as to the Snare reverse mixer track. I also drop the Snare reverse volume to 1. B. Alright. Now, back to the Step Sequencer and I just place the Snare reverse on steps 1. Thisll create a nice lead in effect to every second clap and makes the rhythm sound more interesting. Snare Reverse. mp. Ok. Then I move on to hihats. Ill start by placing the first closed hihat on steps 3, 1. This is otherwise a nice hihat sample, but somehow it has low end frequencies in it so I need to use eq. Again, Ill add the PEQ2 and using high pass filter with quite gentle curve, I roll off stuff below 4. Hz. Also, Ill drop the volume level to 1. B. audio http howtomakeelectronicmusic. First Closed Hihats. Now, the second closed hihat it goes to steps 7, 1. This hihat requires some tweaking as well as to my ears theres just too much of high end in it so again with the PEQ2 and this time using low pass filter with a steep curve Ill cut everything from 1.
