    What you use to make beats is very important

    You absolutely can filter on anything, I do it on my MPC and in my DAW. It really just depends on my goals for the track or the day.

    @Iron Keys I don’t agree at all. Using your imagination to envision the song is just as “soulful” as feeling it etc. that’s why I still think this is largely a semantics discussion.

    I have a theory that Kayne may try and off himself in 5 years or less.

    Actually, check this one out. (Im NOT a fan of this song) but he really breaks it down here.

    There has ALWAYS been disposable pop music as long as recorded music has existed. Its nothing new. Computers just made it so that its easy to make more music across the board. So there is more filler, but also more good music too.

    Yes im gonna bump this over ten year old thread. I still have this same theory. Although obviously my timeline is incorrect.

    The MPC 2500 sure forces you to focus on what your sample is actually doing. Where FL has everything and the kitchen sink in it. I can see likening a stripped down workflow.

    Man, Logic has probably the most bang for the buck of any DAW but at the end of the day it doesn’t really matter. They all get you to the same destination. And really you don’t have a beat, a melody, a lyric, anything in your head when you make stuff? That’s baffling to me.

    But certainly you have to imagine the sound you are going for in your mind first. Then you can translate it to your “soul” which isn’t very well defined in this particular discussion. My larger point is that your sound comes from you. Not your gear.

    Cubase is probably the most well rounded DAW on the market. I used it and Nuendo for years when I was doing freelance engineering. And before I got my Pro Tools certification. Once I had that I only worked in Pro tools. I have mixed a LOT of records on cubase. These days I only mix in Logic. I...

    Sure, that’s just semantics.

    9th switched to an mpc 2500 and used it for years before he got Maschine fyi. You can get about any sound out of any setup. Hardware doesn’t have some magic sound that computers don’t. Your sound should all come from your head. That being said even using the same exact sounds you will make...
