You’ll then see ways to extend these ideas and flesh them out with other sections like intros, bridges, and more. Next, you’ll learn how to use Udio’s Remix feature to generate new ideas from an existing track, which can then be bounced out as a stereo WAV file or individual stems or tracks. Larry then demonstrates how to use the previously created sample and generate a new beat in Logic Pro (with Serato Sample) that’s ready to send to a rapper!

Been meaning to go against the clock to make a beat for the longest time. First effort is here! I actually liked this a lot. I admit 100% I didn’t realize how fast that 15 minutes would go.

Let me know if you’d like to see more; I def feel like I want to explore this avenue much more!
