forget the strings steros, work on dropping some hard ass drums.
i uploaded this just for you (thanks button ahem)
edit: notice the little OFS knob? use that for the kicks and snares to make them swing late, and not sound so humanized, and then drag the swing bar somewhere... sometimes it helps to wait until after youve patterned your instruments/samples to swing the entire thing... but it doesn't matter really.. the crunchy drums are what take it.. it took me along time to realize that simple trick, so i enjoy passing it on...
for a good starter kick go into plugin generators/ fruity kick / low....
set the knobs, play with them, you can drop some kicks like that...
wanna make dance music? drop it down to sixty and hit them low kicks every other click on the pattern organizer, 2 kicks a bar.. thump thump thump and then make a dance track...
hip-hop bpm: 75-105 or 130-175 are generally my ranges...
dance / reggae bpm: 54 - 83 bpm
any other things youve thought of wanting to do just ask
