    Manual Digging vs. Internet Digging

    I dig what your saying man but no one showed me what was up with digging when I started - I just figured it out and did it. Its not complex. Go to the spot when you got a couple bucks to spare, look through collections of vinyl for as long as it takes, pick some cool looking pieces out, go home...

    Manual Digging vs. Internet Digging

    Honestly watching someone else dig is prob the most boring thing, but the process itself is really what its all about. Pug made some really good points too..."the thrill of the hunt" is a great aspect of it. And dont listen to the heads trying to front like you gotta spend butt loads of money...

    $700...what to do?

    Word, I agree...Lion has a good point too tho - the monitors and the soundcard sorta go hand-in-hand really cuz both are just as critical to your setup. More so if your trying to work on music in the box, but even if your outboard - you gotta get your music into the computer somehow eventually...

    $700...what to do?

    True - More details as to what your aspirations are for future musical endeavors would be helpful in order to provide the best advice..... But I quadruple that - cop some monitors. Your gonna need some good ones regardless of what kind of way you work, ie. outboard or in the box.

    FTP Programs...

    Well it sounds like the FTP program Stress is using is working fine so suggesting other programs for him to use is moot at this point. It sounds like your problem lies with your host more then anything else man.

    Who are u hosting with? Some free servers will put locks on certain things like allowing others to download files, etc. ------------ So are u uploading this to www.stresswon.com by the way? Was the file called "Fun Times Tracked"?...cuz i found one file in your directory called that. >>>>...

    How much do Video Game Musicians get paid?

    Thats why I said "typically" man...Because in many cases for a job like this you really will be either encouraged to learn, or already know programming languages such as C++...Theres the obvious exception like what Dream does apparently but I guarantee this is the case at least 75% of the time...

    How much do Video Game Musicians get paid?

    Honestly man, the majority of people who say that sorta thing to you are simply coming to that conclusion because of the sounds your using most likely. I bet if you chose more organic sounds to play with in your beats you would rarely ever hear that. When I first started out in 2000 I had cats...

    Bass Changes Kicks

    Word, glad we could help Jamal... Another thing you might delve into later once u start experimenting with frequency stacking and EQ is trying out sidechain compression with your kick and bass - that is if you have an actual bass track to sidechain to! (this doesnt always work so well if your...

    Bass Changes Kicks

    Jamal - I wasnt really hearing many bass frequencies represented when I was playing back your track so its a bit hard to determine whats happening to your kick without a reference to how it sounds on its own without the influence of other sources/tracks...but my guess is that if your kick sound...

    Does wealth make you special?

    @ Sucio - I can dig that. All I'll say tho is just remember where you come from and be true to that. For me anyways, thats what grounds me in life. Thats not to say I wouldn't appreciate enjoying having the ability to buy a new car whenever I see fit, or taking my family out to dinner whenever I...
