Beat Maker Online – How Good Is Sonic Producer?
With technical advances, mixing music and making beats has moved online from being just the domain of the traditional methods. Using paid membership sites, companies have set up their software on their own servers, providing a beat maker that is accessed online. This is a very competitive market and Sonic Producer has emerged in recent times, garnering a lot of interest and attention. So what exactly does this software provide the user and is it value for money? This review attempts to answer those questions.
One of the key points is that Sonic Producer is a music sequencer that offers mp3 export capability. It comes with tutorials covering aspects such as music production, use of different keyboards, studios and in depth lessons on how to use the Sonic Producer itself. This is all provided in the members area online and has a comprehensive catalogue of video lessons about the software and sounds library. There are also production lesson tutorials about Logic, ProTools, software instruments and keyboards and much more besides. You also get the opportunity to download your beats and instrumentals so that you can demonstrate your work with Sonic Producer.
Trying to assess the performance of Sonic Producer is always going to be somewhat subjective. Do you compare Sonic Producer with other professional grade consoles and software or is that just an unfair comparison? As professional consoles will always have the advantage over Sonic Producer, this review will focus on how it compares with other online software which makes beats online. When comparing ‘like with like,’ Sonic Producer comes out very well indeed. A separate volume control is provided for each of the sixteen tracks in the music sequencer. Also the number of beats per minute can be controlled which dictates the tempo of the music. There is also a virtual keyboard integrated along with drum pads. It is when Sonic Producer is compared against other beat maker software that it comes into it’s own and proves that it’s features are indeed extensive.
The sample library is definitely a strong part of the Sonic Producer package. Console beat making software, and to a lesser extent other software for making beats, are known for having sample and sound libraries of limited variety and variable quality. Sonic Producer has an extensive sample library, consisting of thousands of music samples of very high quality. Sonic Producer works on all computers and operating systems. It does not matter if you have a PC, Mac or other platform. If you have any troubles using the sequencer, drum machine, playing videos or entering the members area, simply send their staff an email and they should be able to help you.
Sonic Producer is very affordable when compared with other beat maker software on the market. The other key point is that although the Sonic Producer System is accessed through a membership site, monthly payments do not apply. Some online sites, however, charge their users on a monthly or yearly basis to keep using their software.
Sonic Producer is currently offering a lifetime subscription to their online beat making software for only $29.95. In summary, Sonic Producer’s good functionality, extensive sample and sound library and at a very affordable price, should make it the number one choice for any young or developing musician interested in using a beat maker online.
