What you need is a MIDI drum controller and a drum machine.

Vocal synthesier

Hi to U all!
I'm looking for some kind of software for PC that can reproduce human voice synthesizing it.
Do U know where could I find it? I mean something like telephone answering voice, or something similar.
Thanx in advance,

HOW to MIX SONGS LIKE KANYE WEST/JUST BLAZE?

Does Anyone Out there knows a software you can mixsongs like rocafella producers(KANYE WEST JUST BLAZE)

The Alchemist takes the throne ...

Posted by Robert
Rap News Direct Staff
9/1/2004 6:46:54

There’s a good chance you may already know just exactly who The Alchemist is. As one of the most in-demand hip-hop producers, Al has already crafted anthems for a virtual who’s who of the genre including rap & hip hop's NAS, Mobb Deep, Jadakiss, Snoop Dogg and numerous others. The Alchemist is now set to step into the spotlight as he gets ready to release his much-anticipated debut album 1st Infantry on ALC Records/KOCH Records.
Streeting on September 21st, the new album is already being deemed “A triumph” by XXL. Vibe has been equally complimentary, giving the album 4 out of 5 discs and heralding him as “THE go-to producer for the East-Coast street sound.”

1st Infantry’s first single “Hold You Down” feat. Prodigy, Nina Sky and Illa Ghee is already making waves on New York’s Hot 97 while a video for the record has already shipped to B.E.T. The clip was directed by Estevan Oriol (Cypress Hill, Blink-182).

1st Infantry features a mix of artists who best compliment Al’s progressive sound as well a slew of others who Al has worked with over the years. “Bangers,” the first street joint leaked from the release, features

G-Unit’s very own Lloyd Banks—it’s already received a lot of love on mixtapes across the country. Other guests on the forthcoming album include Cypress Hill, Havoc and Prodigy of Mobb Deep, T.I., Dilated Peoples, Jadakiss, Devin the Dude, NAS, the West Coast’s top prospect The Game, and many others.

As a much sought-after producer, The Alchemist most recently produced a track on Jadakiss’ new album, Kiss of Death. He also produced four tracks on Mobb Deep’s just-released chart-topping album, Amerikaz Nightmare including its first single “Got It Twisted.” Since recently being added to the management roster of Paul Rosenberg, founder of powerhouse firm Goliath Artists (Eminem, Xzibit, Cypress Hill), The Alchemist looks forward to taking his biggest and best step forward in his work in the coming year. Al can also be hear°>ÃwŒë
d on Coca-Cola's new Vanilla Coke radio commercial that he produced and performed on with acclaimed actor, Chazz Palminteri (Usual Suspects, Bronx Tale).

It was with Mobb Deep that The Alchemist started to be recognized for his more aggressive style of beat making when he produced two highlights on the group’s platinum album gem, Murda Muzik ("The Realest", "Thug Music"). While the underground crowd was already aware of Al’s tendency for hardcore tracks, artists like Fat Joe ("Bring it On"), Eminem ("Get Back") Freddy Fox (“Stock in The Game”) and Capone-N-Noreaga ("Bang, Bang") soon noticed Al as a producer that could prepare the right musical background for them to capture their aggression.

He has been sought out for projects with Jadakiss ("We Gone Make it"), Prodigy ("Keep It Thoro"), NAS ("Book Of Rhymes"), Snoop Dogg ("Hey Girl"), Ludacris, Ghostface Killah, Big Daddy Kane as well as alternative acts such as Linkin Park and Morcheeba.

Despite the increasing attention from high profile acts

take instrumental out from song and keep the vocals

i'm looking for a program that will take out the instrumentals from a song so that i'm left with just the vocals. I've heard that there is a software that will do this, can anyone help?

someone is spreading rumours..

Where did you hear this story? All you will be told here is that it is NOT possible for the results that most people are looking for. NOT possible.

: i'm looking for a program that will take out the instrumentals from a song so that i'm left with just the vocals. I've heard that there is a software that will do this, can anyone help?

my effort to add to the rumours..

Try this little experiment....
<ol>
<li>Take a stereo WAV file and process it with <a href="http://www.hitsquad.com/cgi/htdig/htsearch.cgi?method=and&format=builtin-long&config=htdig&restrict=%2Fsmm%2Fprograms%2F&exclude=&words=vocal+remover" target="_top">vocal removing software</a>
<li>If you got lucky and you now have a mostly instrumental track proceed to the next step or go back to step 1 using a different track in the hope you'll find one that works (ie a track with vocals only center panned)
<li>Using an editor like <a href="http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/programs/Cool_Edit_2k/" target="_top">Cool Edit</a> merge both the left and right channels into a single mono WAV
<li>Take your original track with vocals and instruments and also merge it into a mono WAV and reverse the phase
<li>Load your full track (mono reversed phase) into the left channel of a blank stereo WAV and then load your instrumental track (mono not reversed) into the right channel
<li>Play back the new stereo WAV and see what happens...
</ol>

Re: Where can I buy HIP HOP LOOPS

<a href="http://www.sonicfoundry.com">Sonic Foundry sell loops</a> but you can get them from <a href="http://www.mp3.com/">artists at MP3.com</a>.

Re: Where can I buy HIP HOP LOOPS

You have to be careful where you get your loops
from because you need to be sure they are Royalty
Free so you don't end up with copyright problems
later.

Buying loop CDs from reputable dealers is the
safest course of action, but if you don't intend
distributing your music in any way then it probably
doesn't matter too much where you get them from.

Cassette's

Hi PPL
I was just wondering if the DePopper also cleaned up the sound on cassette recordings too?Is the idea that you take the vinyl or cassette onto the computer then clean it up therefore making any source of music available to clean up?

Re: Cassette's

Why not just try out the demo?

What is causing this and what should I do to correct it? Please help.

Re: just!burn doen't work

Contact the vendor??

Just a wild stab in the dark... ;))

Re: just!burn doen't work

Well, I'd recommend contacting the vendor.

Software for recording audia tapes / discs

This is complete beginner's question - so I apologise in advance. I would like to copy from audio cassettes and vinyl discs to preserve an old (like me) and much loved (less like me) collection of music. I thought that if I could get the files onto my PC I can then burn them onto CD or something.

Can you recomment some software that would allow me to do this.

I hope you can find the time to help me with what must be for you amn embarrassingly simple question

Thank you for your help.

Re: Software for recording audia tapes / discs

If you use the search function, you'll find this topic has been covered many, many times before. If, after then, it still isn't clear, post again.
