What's up people? In my last video I reviewed the Akai Force that arrived on Christmas Eve and showed the first song I'd made with it. From DMs to comments, a lot of people seemed interested in seeing a video where I dove deeper into how I made it. More specifically, a lot of people wanted to know how I recorded the vocals and guitar directly into the Akai Force. There are some great Akai Force tutorials out there, but I took a slightly different route.
In this video I cover exactly how I arranged the song, how to swing samples, and exactly how I recorded the vocals and guitar. The good news is that even if you don't use a Force, these practices can be utilized on any groove box (though the Force reigns supreme for in-the-box production thanks to it's completely open arranger IMO).
To keep the video shorter, I point you toward some good tutorials from content creators I enjoy when an issue comes up that I don't want to spend 20 minutes on. Hope you dig it!

Disclaimer - While most of my videos say "Includes Paid Promotion" that is only shown because I have to AND SHOULD disclose that Native has sent me these plug-ins for free. However, no money has exchanged hands in favor of any sort of positive review. As I mention often, I simply never review anything unless I love it.
