subject: Make Beats At Home On Your Computer- It's Easier Than You Think [print this page] The many, many advancements in technology (particularly over the past decade) have now made it very easy for the average "Joe" to metamorphous into a "Super Producer" if his (or her) heart so desires. There are some incredible beat-making software programs out on the market today that will allow you to make quality, robust sounding beats at home, right from your computer. The good thing is many beat-making programs are designed for all levels of experience. You don't need to be a professional musician or really have any experience at all in order to start making high quality, original beats right away. Of course some programs are strictly for the "more experienced". However, don't be discouraged if you aren't quite there yet. It's not too hard to find beat-making programs that not only provide you with the software and sounds you need to make the hottest beats, but some will provide you with video tutorials as well to guide you every step of the way.
The ability to produce music or make beats can open up countless doors for you. Artists and songwriters who are looking to break into the music industry are always looking for local producers who can get them hot, original beats to write to. And, they'll pay you for it! Of course, if you yourself are an artist or a songwriter, it would be an enormous advantage to be able to make your own beats. You'd really come out on top by not having to pay anyone else to do it for you or wait around on their schedule. Plus, your completed songs will sound exactly how you want them to. But ultimately, the potential money you can make as a producer is the biggest perk. Once you master the technique of making beats and producing music you'll be in a position to work with established artists and even "super stars"! Some of the top music producers in the industry make well over $60,000 just for one track! That's not even including any royalty payments. I'd say that's a very, very pretty penny.
When deciding on which beat-making software program to go with, one huge factor to consider is the number of "sounds" the program offers. You don't want your creativity to be limited because you only have a couple hundred sounds to choose from. Instead, go for one that offers a selection of a thousand or more sounds. This will allow you to get lost in your creativity and only the sky will be the limit with the kind of awesome, original beats you'll be able to make!
