    monitor headphones vs monitor speakers

    I don't know but the mix coming Thru my Sony headphone monitors is different from the mix coming from Event 20/20 monitors, I don't know if I would rely on a headphone mix as the truth of the actual sound even studios use at least 2 Pairs of monitors to reference certain frequencies and speakers...

    playing keys

    I suggest if you want to learn some good riffs, band in a box, or video tapes and last but not least lessons, band in a box plays any midi song and it will show you the notes to play and you can slow it down to any tempo, and you can play along with it, it has every known scale, chords and you...

    DJ Premier's style a mathematical formula?

    Afrique is Right....and he hit it on the head, a lot of the Premo patterns are realistic as far as the feel and swing of the drums....thats where software lags......he is emulating a drummer with his patterns so you have to step to good drum rudiment programming.....listening to some Billy...

    Who do you get feedback from?

    The best thing is to go and have different people that don't know you listen.....Friends will usually tell you lies so they don't hurt your feelings.. I try to find People that at least can write lyrics and have a good delivery or flow and might understand how a song needs to be...

    DAVID BANNER is better than kanye

    Cool bottom line though, I won't compare Kanye to David Banner, I would rather find someone that does what he does to compare, I like Lil Jon no matter how obnoxious he might be.....he's been in the Game for awhile, his shidd rocks too man ! I think David Banner will need to keep from being an...

    Def Jam In A Jam

    All of the recent allegations against Universal & Def Jam and Overstating Chart results and possibly sales will completely lead to either their restructuring or collapse......also I think it is a pivotal time in the industry, with the Fall of Rawkus and the scandals around Universal, compounded...

    DJ Premier's style a mathematical formula?

    You have to figure that now a lot of cats do not respect Premo for whatever reasons they have or they trivialize his techniques....Premo was the groundbreaker as far as making the head bobbin, hip hop SWINGin shidd.....he has influence sooooo many producers styles more so on the underground...

    DAVID BANNER is better than kanye

    I listened to David Banner, one because someone wanted some beats like that and 2 they needed bounce tracks otherwise I would only play that for like 45 seconds, I mean the beats are truly dirty and 808 and heavy bassline carries it as they should......but don't get upset at this, his beats are...

    HELP!! Pro Tools

    Yeah the G4 boasts the Mac's Processing power but plugins need ram and they eat up processes too, maybe there is something you can do to optimize protools on the Mac besides adding more ram?

    HELP!! Pro Tools

    Hey Swivel, sounds like you might have a lot of plugins in use, here is a tip, if you absolutely have to use plugins in protools during the dump it's cool but the best thing is to process each track by applying plugin fx to each one, process it, then just unload all of the realtime plugin fx...
