I have few questions, I'll drop just a couple.

1-I use midi to make beats, sounds nice to my ear (monitor tannoy
reveal active no sbwoofer)but once I export it and drop on a cd, it
sounds like **** on anyohter output stereo. I use Nuendo 2 and I also
have tc works and prosoniq bundle (I only use dynasone)... it is for
french hip hop. my question is, am I using the good stuff or what? and
what point a rookie would miss first... I'm begenning making beat,
beats are great but sound like I told you is ****!

2-Drums, anysuggestion a vst something to make bad drum set?... I'm
using battery from ni, I'dont know, it clips all the time, retouching
the evelop change the sound of the drum

Sounds to me you have room troubles. Read "Acoustiscs: building a good sounding
room" and everything else at this link to.

True, Your room is playing tricks on your sound. You can try to compensate
for your room deficiencies by adjusting your mixes so the sound good on
outside equip. This is a trial and error process until you learn what your
room is doing (and how to correct it in your mixes).

Acoustic treatment works well at taming room problems. I had a similar
problem severely reduced with $250 worth of acoustic foam and glue.
