    Monitor Help,,,,,(FUCK)

    you may want to check the unobvious....I got 2 behringer mixers from old skool gathering dust.....make sure you have the routing correct for the main output....sometimes there is a button that you have to push to enable the the main output....headphones usually mirror the control room signal...

    Best Digger

    Flipping samples a proper way is sort of an oxymoron though I mean you flip a sample an make it sound good depending.....to me the samplists that impress me are ones that either leave very little of the original song intact.....but just enuff of it to think you know where it came from but you...

    Since Kenwop sold a beat I gotta question...

    If you live in any reasonably urban situation nowadays you got many opportunities to find an artist, that will pay you for your work....The metro DC area where I live might not really be a hip hop mecca either but I have been able to sell beats regularly for the last 4 years or so as well as a...

    Why I love my MPC ...

    Look man Ya'll know I SWARE by my MPC....I love my mpc because I can program really some realistic stuff & patterns, I have had other samplers but the timing and sequencing just is VERY hard to find in other sequencers...and the way my drums sound dope...but I heard some beats on the computer...

    when did you start producing?

    I have been producing since the early to mid 90's before all of the hoopla about producing, using a drum machine Alesis HR16 and cheap ass yamaha keyboard and tapes for some cats in College, LOL took a biiiiiig break from it after buying some gear, DJ'd a lil took a break and started back into...

    Everybody is a producer now (article)

    There is some truth to what you say but your beats thru a computer will sound 10X better with much less effort than someone using gear....I think there a soooooo many steps to build a beat to a finished good sounding endproduct though than software....consider myself equally skilled with fruity...

    LOL I swear I wrote an article on this very subject within a few months of joining....see I remember making beats before there was fruity loops(yes I got a copy at version 3 something back at least 3 or 4 years ago along with acid) LOL all I have really known is gear and I am sure there are many...

    Jin Video

    I think that sometimes this shows what commercialism can do to street credibility, its hard to walk that line, you look a Joe Budden, his album, choice of beats and when it dropped sort of gave him a black eye or the listeners and fans he had before were like what??...beyond pump it up I think...
