How I Capture Songwriting Ideas on the Fly

What’s up, DigiGang? Ever find yourself with a random lyric or melody stuck in your head at the most unexpected times—while eating dinner, watching TV, or just living life? Same here. Over the years, I’ve developed a method to make sure I never lose those moments of inspiration, and I want to share it with you.

My process combines two simple tools: the Notes app and Voice Memos. Here’s how it works:

Capture the Thought: The moment an idea pops into my head, I grab my phone and open the Notes app. I write down whatever lyric, concept, or spark of inspiration is on my mind.

Record the Melody: If a melody comes to me, I switch to Voice Memos. I record myself humming, singing, or explaining the delivery of the idea. This helps me remember the vibe and details when I revisit it later.

Combine and Organize: Here’s the cool part. I press and hold the recording, drag it into the note, and drop it in place. Now I have the written lyric and vocal sample in one spot, making it easy to revisit the original inspiration.

This system helps me stay grounded in my ideas and hit the ground running when it’s time to write, produce, or fine-tune a song. The next time you have a creative spark, try this method and see if it helps your workflow.

Remember, the best ideas often come when you least expect them—don’t let them slip away. Keep creating, DigiGang!

Ok here we go again. Producers tonight we are talking about sound selection. Some instruments pair well with each other and often the genre determines what sounds and instruments need to be used. If you make Trap then there are certain drum sounds, synths and instruments that are common to that genre and are heard in popular Trap beats and songs. If you make Boom Bap or Lo-fi, there's quite a different aesthetic. #producersofinstagram #producerlife #protools #producernations #musicproductiontutorial #musicproductiontips #musicproduction #musicproducer #beatmakingtips #beatcookup #beats #beatmaking #beatmaker #mixing #flstudiogang #flstudio #flstudio20 #ableton11 #abletonlive #reason #melodyloops #royaltyfreeloops #hiphopbeat #hiphop #rapinstrumentals https://www.instagram.com/p/CPAFtQaFk3A/?utm_medium=tumblr

Panning is Everything to a Mix... FREE MIXING GUIDE >> LINK IN BIO Panning is essential to a good mix but here a few basic rules that will help you achieve a better mix in no time 1 - don't pan instruments sharing the same frequency range in the same position to give them space. Use a spectrum analyzer to identify if two instruments clash with each other in the same range. 2 - If the bass source comes from a stereo instrument, it's a good idea to send it to a mono bus as low frequency elements should be panned close to center. 3 - as a general rule, lead vocals are also usually placed in the center. Harmonies, double tracks etc can end up being panned left and right when it's necessary to bring some more stereo. 4 - Not everything needs to be panned. You got to trust your ears for this Double tap if this helps! Make sure to get your free copy of our Essential Mixing Guide that will teach you other cool tricks for mixing.

This is parts from a mic review I did for a company called “Fifine Technology”...It’s an affordable mic and it’s great for sampling.
