So if you go online, there are so many sites to buy quality samples or even whole beat and people like to start their work with samples maybe to speedup their workflow but should I do the same or should I start from the root and is it gonna affect my overall workflow and result ??
I want your personal opinion on this if possible !

Hey Akshay, great question! Some producers do like to start with samples and modify them to their production style. As with any process this isn’t the only way to approach music production. My suggestion is to experiment, try starting a song with samples and also try making music from scratch i.e programming via MIDI and/or audio recordings. One thing to keep in mind is that yes, this will effect your workflow and results but that shouldn’t be thought of as a bad thing! Over time and with experimentation you’ll find a process that suites you and helps you get the results you want. The objective should always be finding processes and approaches that help you express your music, so never consider different methods “right” or “wrong”, try and find and focus on what works for you!
