Making Good Sound Choices When Creating Beats Online
Making beats online has become the best way to produce a professional backing track, especially one with a steady or repeating rhythm. Creating a beat that has the fullest sounds and the most powerful arrangement of timbres can be tricky, however. Choosing the right patches and placing them properly within the composition is the only way to get a outstanding music track that will stand out among the thousands that are made and published every day.
There are ways to go about making your sonic choices and placing them within a sequence to create the strongest musical presentation you can while still maintaining your creative integrity. One way is to work from the ground up, starting with the most prominent sound and build around it. For instance, pick a bass drum sound that you like and creating a basic rhythm to stack other sounds upon. If you choose to place them on the two and four for a rock beat, or the one and three for a more jazzy sound or if you stagger them and place them off the main beats or a combination thereof, you generate instantly the type of beat you want to present and then make it more unique with the sound you overlay on top of it.
The other method is to start with the sound you want to be the most melodically prominent. If you have a chord or a sound with a specific tuning, you can place that sound on the beats that will generate the melodic structure of the beat. Then place the rhythmic anchors underneath that to strengthen the backing track and fine tune from there. Some sounds will only sustain over the time of one beat, while others will sustain for much longer, even over an entire phrase of the beat track. You can use these in conjunction with each other to blend melodic elements together, emphasizing phrasing within the overall phrase of the beat track. Punctuating the phrase emphasizes with the strong rhythmic elements can only increase the strength of your track; remember that placing the rhythmic elements off the beats or phrase strong points can be just as or even more effective than supporting them directly or keeping them on the up beats. Play around with it and see what work best. I usually find that a mixture of the two makes your track sound the strongest.
Choosing your sounds is just as important as placing your sounds. Usi

ng a full range of frequencies tastefully placed is usually the best attack plan. Listen carefully to the sounds you want to use and then select a few other sounds that compliment and support those primary sounds. Tinkly high pitched sounds crossed with rumbly bass sounds obviously compliment one and other, but you may also want to try complimentary sounds that are closer together in frequency range. You can support sounds with each other creatively and professionally by paying close attention to the frequencies bouncing around in your track.
Frequency differences, though, are not always the way to compliment another. Remember that sounds are waves and they each have a unique shape and form. A sharper sound and a smoother sound in the same frequency range may complement each other properly more so than frequency differences. Try isolating sounds and then adding one at a time to see how they merge together sonically. Use two at a time until you find the best two that work together and then repeat the process adding more and more sounds until your track is full and complete. Be sure not to over work your track, but make sure it is full enough to stand on its own. Making a sparse track if fine; making a weak track is not.
Try these tricks when making your next beats. You should be able to create beats that are high quality and professional following these approaches and these approaches will give you more ideas with some patience, some trial and error, and all while having loads of fun working on your music!
