This is the third episode in a mini-series of music production tips, and songwriting tips. Whether you're a beginner or an expert, it's always useful to brush up on your skills. And I've got just the thing for you: a quick rundown of some of our favourite tips and tricks for producing killer beats.

First things first: when you're producing a song from scratch, it can be helpful to start with a drum pattern. Here are some tips for getting started:

1. Program a kick drum and snare pattern using the Logic Pro X step sequencer.

2. Program a hi-hat and clap pattern using a step sequence.

3. Write a lead synth arpeggio using Native Instrument's Massixe X, an arpegiator, and Scalar 2.

4. Write a sub-bass using MIDI pattern using ANA 2. Use the ANA2 side-chain effect to modulate a sub-bass and pad MIDI sequence.

5. Improve your bass line with 3rd and 5th notes!
