In this Waves Premium Masterclass, get into the mind of Grammy®- winning producer/engineer Lu Diaz (DJ Khaled, Pitbull, Jay Z) as he works with up-and-coming artist Rey King on a homemade hip hop track to give it the competitive sound and polished feel of today’s commercial hip hop greats.

In Episode 1, you’ll learn which small touches can make a massive impact on the low end of a hip hop track. Lu reveals his workflow for getting stronger 808s and other low-end elements, plus subtle tricks you can use on your own loops, synths and drops to build tension and drama.
