Watching this I realized that I am exporting an untagged wav before the trackouts which is redundant when you can copy the master like you did. This was helpful 🤘
@@LifeStyleDidIt i made something @130 bpm and exported it and than loaded that file in my dj controller and it is off the grid and also the bpm is @190 instead of 130... any idea anybody?? please help
Good rule of thumb to is within trackouts create Wet and Dry folder so the engineer can do their thing if the artists engineer wants to make their prefered tweaks. Wet with any EQ/REverb/Etc, Dry without anything. Also you can upload your tag inside beatstars should you not need an MP3 file with a tag to cut some time. It will automatically play on the song even if you upload trackouts and WAV file. Great video bro.
You have the best information for producers and beat makers I have seen on the internet. I have always said to take advice from the people that get the tracks after you make them…. Like mixing or mastering engineers… which I did for a good chunk of time and you are the only person I have found that teaches the same techniques that I have been for years… your experience with mixing and mastering really show because someone that hasn’t usually gives very bad info in tutorials.. keep it up man you are awesome!
@@LifeStyleDidIt anytime…I call it as I see it, don’t ever change your style it works well and is very informative without all the bloat and self promotion all the other “producers” have in every video. More need to pay attention to what you have to say, their careers would benefit greatly from it. There are channels that are much larger than this that don’t come close to the same quality of information let alone the industry level tips and tricks you give that are very accurate.
Thanks Bro, I had about 10 beats up on my store and then realized I was uploading the wrong file types lolllll so I wiped it clean and now im slowly but surely getting them back up with the peace of mind that im doing it all right. Thanks again homie!
Damn bro I haven't been on UA-cam like I remember subscribing to u way back when u only had like 2k sub an was like man his puts out great content why isn't he growing come back an your at 90k ita been a long grind man an glad to see your finally getting the shine u deserve 🙏
Really appreciate videos like this bro, was just trying to sort out my exporting settings the other day. Channels like yours have helped me become so much more successful than what I thought I could be. Always gonna show love 💙
this coming in clutch though ngl, I am an Ableton native and I'm getting way more comfortable in FL studio and its a whole process to get everything up but it seems like once you know the process seamlessly only like 15 mins to upload to BS/YT. One thing I never did was name the tracks but I see how that makes a huge difference in trackouts
I've been making music for quite some time now and I know the ins and outs of all this jazz but I always like to see how others do things and maybe implement some new techniques in to my workflow. I tend to get really bored doing the same thing over and over....even if it works. Its just who I am, I don't like routines, I like to change things every once in a while but enough about me. This video was great, I already do this but there was a few little pieces I can take away from this and it's reminded me to stay organised ALWAYS! Love brother 💙
@@LifeStyleDidIt i made something @130 bpm and exported it and than loaded that file in my dj controller and it is off the grid and also the bpm is @190 instead of 130... any idea anybody?? please help
Woop woop. Bro idk how youtube/ google does this. But they know I just officially bought FL and im ready to start selling my beats and Swear I have only been thinking about this in my head. I have only ever exported to WAV (xD)and have uploaded to soundcloud. Next thing you know this freaking video gets recommended to me and here we are! I am so stoked. Thanks for a great tutorial straight forward information and well explained. Never been here before and now you got a new notification subscriber. Cheers!
Huge thanks man, exreamly helpful video! 100% a like and subscribe! i didnt have enough room on my c driver so i moved the music folder to the d driver.
You can't imagine bro, when i start watching your mixing and mastering tutorial My whole beats get another level of sound bro. You just put down my beats at next level. Defn. Credit goes to none aother LifeStyleDidit🔥🔥💣
@@LifeStyleDidIt hey man, also had one question about it. Can i use parametric eq2 insted of limiter? While doing final mixing at the end? Cz i can't find L1 limiter on google or any website :(
Thanks for the video dude! After 20 years of working on music i just recently got into beat making. Definitely needed to learn a lot regarding uploads etc, kept coming across your videos. Just got my first beat up on YT and beatstars. Keep up the informative content!
First great video! Thanks for this. Just wanted to share that Beatstars has auto tagging now. If you upload a untagged wav, it tags it with your tag on file. Your method is better when you have time though. Because you can control where the tag sits and tempo/pitch can be adjusted
Lol the thumbnail is actually what you need to do to export in high quality Ik clickbait is really pointless here but you're straight to the point w it n I fuckin love it
So since we leave headroom for engineers, should I not worry too much about my beat sounding a little quiet? I just got a sample pack and his mix sounds way better. I overthink.
@@leavealegacymusic so what? your the owner of your beat man if someone making stacks with your shit than get the lawyers on their ass... 1 tag in the beginning is enough bro
@@juice-xr5dr Lawyers are expensive. Not to mention the person who stole from you will probably use the stacks of revenue they made to also hire lawyers who will use confusing jargon to try and swindle you out of your beat. I'd rather just put 3 extra tags in my beat than have to deal with all that shit tbh
Great video bro 🔥 for trackouts I prefer to export each playlist track which is more convenient specially when the project has more complex routing in the mixer, thanks again for the videos bro, your channel is amazing 🙏🙏
Dope. One of the problems with Traktrain upload is that if u wanna upload beats with headroom, those versions are the only ones that u upload. So if u leave headroom and someone wants to listen to your beats on there, they are quiet. I guess peaking at -3 would be the best option in this case right? Just so it aint too quiet lol
@@LifeStyleDidIt Nah its one MP3, one WAV and one Trackouts zip. Pretty much the same as Beatstars except u dont get to upload the "tagged MP3" which is mixed louder than the ones u sell
Pretty good video, only one question .. wouldn't it be better to name the trackouts like "LS - Tonight 86bpm (track name)"? I ask because lets say a artist purchases multiple beats from you and for some reason all the files get mixed up, they're not gonna know which sounds go to which songs. For example, if they purchased 5 beats from you, they will ultimately have "LS - Kick" 5 times which can get messy if somehow the files get mixed up, you know.
Hey man, I have a problem... The way I mix my beats is like Cxdy! IDK if u know or not but in this method I dont leave any headroom... What should I do about it for the beatstars???? BTW ur videos are awesome! Thanks
Masih Khosravi if you’re talking about clipping, you can just trim the gain back, or grab your faders and turn them all down together, it’s truly up to you. I’m not sure what method your referring too, but if you purposely clip the mixer inserts, and wanna keep that tone, you can just trim gain the master back with a plugin
@@LifeStyleDidIt Holly shit! Ur right, the easiest way is to turn everything down! Why didnt I think about that? Thanks man u literally saved my beatmaking procces... BTW yeah that exactly what I do!
SOLVE THIS PLS When you make busses, you have to manually track out right? or is there some shortcut I'm, missing.... For example, If I have keys, guitar and a lead routed to a bus with a tiny bit of compression and reverb... and I want one track of each, but want the effects from the bus, I'd have to manually track each on my own right? Otherwise what I'll get is a dry track of each and a bus track with the effects, but also all inst on the same track. Just want to make sure I'm not overlooking a short cut for this....
You forgot to unable "insert effects". Trackouts should deliver without any "non creative" effect on it, such as EQs, reverbs or delays. Also have to disable this effects on the plugin's gui. At least for industry artists. What I do is to send the trackouts with and without insert effects.
Watching this I realized that I am exporting an untagged wav before the trackouts which is redundant when you can copy the master like you did. This was helpful 🤘
THE MONEY BEATS haha I did the same for awhile too
damn man i been doing that shit too smh
same:(
I can't upload a wav file and I converted it from mp3 to Wav in the 44.1hz format. Still won't upload

if the fx is for a creative purpose (e.g haftime) live it in.

Should the stems have their fx on or off for the trackouts or even any master fx on them?
Deidara Sama I leave them on
Deidara Sama u should leave them on 99% of the time, the beat will sound completely trash without reverb and all the other effects
this is what i needed
