The Jim Jones vs. Nas debate—started by Capo himself—continues.On Sunday (Aug. 17), Jones debuted his new podcast, Artist 2 Artist, where he sat down with New York rapper Fivio Foreign.

When you open Guitar Rig these days, what’s usually the goal, tone shaping, movement, or mood? When we open Guitar Rig in the studio, our primary goal is to craft emotions. Guitar Rig is our go-to for injecting some soul into our productions, especially when it comes to basslines that feel full, rich, and almost alive, like they’re carrying the weight of the track. We use it to add warmth or crispiness and character. For example, we’ll run a synth bass through an amp to give it that gritty, organic depth, or layer on the Tape Delay to evoke a…

No law enforcement agency has confirmed the incident, and no official statement has been released by the…

Dystopian Waves has released Drox, a free Max for Live device for glitchy, real-time audio manipulation in Ableton Live. If you’re into creative sound mangling, this one’s worth checking out. I don’t personally use Ableton Live, so I haven’t tested Drox, but it looks like a really fun tool for anyone who enjoys glitch processing, rhythmic destruction, or adding unpredictable movement to audio. Sadly enough, that sounds exactly like me, haha. But Ableton Live never really clicked with me, so I won’t be using this one. Our writer James recently covered Spectral Wobbler from the same developer, and if you…
