If I'm doing a simple intro for a song, I'll use Sound Forge (ver 8). If I'm doing a mashup, I use protools (ver 8).

I use Audacity for all of my own edits. It's free and easy to use once you get the hang of it.

I make my own edits to countless tracks using Live 8

+1 but still using 7.

I am just starting to do re-edits and re-works. I like the style of Danny K, Dimitri, Terje and Eli Escobar. I have Protools 7.4 LE ( Digi 002 & Mbox1), Reason and Live 8 Suite. I am new to all of this as well as new to Scratch Live (former Torq user.) Do you guys have any tips,hints tutorials? Trust I am Googled out...lol.

what i usually do is start in Pro Tools (8 M-Powered), normalize, trim the ends, and do basic re-arranging, just cause it is so much quicker to work audio-only in PT than Live (for me).

then I go into Live to add extra stuff- fx, more drums

you have good taste in djs...

i would suggest finding someone who uses the software who will show you. otherwise you could buy a book for $40 or use online tutoriols to learn on your own.

Thanx Benny B. I was a major label A&R guy & manager (which is also how I've been getting gigs,) so I am a lil spoiled by getting to work with some of the top DJ's & pick up stuff . I just met Eli but he has been very helpful as well, I guess I need to work my relationships better...lol.My goal is to be half as respected as these cats. I will hit up a few people and buy more books & attend a few more workshops. I am still open to anyone's input, as I just want to be the best I can.

matty hit me up if you are ever in NY ok

Another +1 for live. It's so easy to work with.

We called these DIY acapellas... From what Ive been told, You need both the Instrumental and Original version of track. The thing is, They need to be ripped from the same source and encoded at the same bitrate (preferably). Otherwise, It may not work so well (Dont quote me).

For some of my own remixes Ive posted online, My process is simple.

- Open up both Instrumental and OG tracks on Soundforge
- On Instrumental, Hit "Invert" and it performs an invert process on the Instrumental
- Copy Instrumental
- Mix Instrumental over Original track. This is where it gets tricky.

They have to lineup very close to see if it will work or not. Sometimes they will work, Sometimes they dont. Im not that great at EQing otherwise I'd have 100% better remixes and mashups.

Crash course in DIY. For more advice, Do what I did. Get on YouTube or research "DIY Acapella" or other similar terms on DJ google.
