When making beats, should you sound design while making the beat, or should you just use a ROMpler to select high-quality presets?

This is a question I get ALL the time!

In addition, I also get asked is using a ROMpler cheating? And the answer is NO!

Remember, sound design is a totally separate industry from making beats. We as beatmakers need high-quality sounds to make our beats fast and with quality. It still takes A LOT of skill to make a beat.. but drum samples and synth presets allow us to make professional beats fast, and it makes mixing A LOT easier, too!

If you try to sound design while making a beat in FL Studio, you will discover it slows you down way too much.

My advice is to do sound design separately, then use those high-quality sounds to make your beats.

The beatmaking process goes:

Make the Beat -> Arrangement -> Mixing -> Audio Painting -> Mastering

Sound design is a TOTALLY SEPARATE INDUSTRY.. and one you may never have to learn to make high-quality beats..

If you want to learn sound design, that’s totally up to you.. and be prepared because it’s overwhelming.. just like learning to make beats was!
