I don't have one. But Ill pay someone 10$ to bounce that shyt.
Would I have to break my beat into 16 second loops or some shyt?

I mean, the most hip hop sounding saturator Ive ever used was the FF Saturn. I had some beats where the drums were all over the place... I literally took out the mids on Saturn and the shyt was :ohhh:

The distortion/lo-fi plugins are the ones I don't like.

But they say the MPC has such a distinct sound... I'll pay a couple bucks for that shyt :yeshrug:

Saturn is the GOAT, better than waves and UAD shyt....

You should also try Satin by U-he that shyt is incredible....

Yeah I got you, just thought you were looking for a simpler route....

Iknow what you mean and had this been same time last year id do it for you. I bought a akai s950 for this purpose but while it did the trick (as well as make the bass sounds really noce like old school shyt) but it was more hassle than anything and was just collecting dust and i offed it to cop some new stuff.

Id just play wit the eq man. I figured it out eventually without it
