I have been unable to find a beat sound that I liked to insert under the music. I realize most people do this, but its something ive never tried. Does anyone else have an opinion on whether its totally necessary or not.
It's not that it's that hard to find the beat in a 4/4 song, but if you show me the beat I can show you one twice as fast, or half as fast. If there is a distinguishable beat sound you use throughout the whole video, then the player doesn't need to think about it. He can focus on the action on screen better, knowing that if the intended/instructed beat changes, he'll be able to hear it. He can also jump ahead or back in the video and will instantly know what the intended beat is without having to wait for another text cue.
Others have made tutorials. There is a tutorial thread with a lot of great advice in it
here. Cock Hero God and legend, Vindicare, tells how he does the beat audio layer in the first post of that thread, step 5. Modern master, Gern Blanston, gives his advice later in the same thread,
here.
I hope you'll do it. I think adding an audio track specifically for beats to your project can make a mediocre Cock Hero a great one.
