Research : Professional Practices : Demos

Throughout this project I have been carrying out professional practices to collaborate with artists/vocalists

One of the things I have been doing is ensuring all of the demos I have sent out to artists are produced and mixed to a high quality. Firstly I create a beat in the DAW Fruity Loops using a variety of midi instruments and samples I have also been applying processes such as reverb, compression and distortion to mold these instruments to make beats that sound good.

After I have finished making a beat in Fruity Loops I then export all the stems into Pro Tools where I mix the beat and use a frequency analyser plugin, the plugin I use is called Neutron and it allows me to remove individual frequencies from each instrument stem to allow each instrument to better sit in the mix so rival frequencies are not competing with one another.

I have attached two screenshots of the processes the same beat undergoes in Fruity Loops and in Pro Tools
