    roland vs. triton

    Hey, The V-synth is a synthesizer in the classical sense of the word, you shouldn't compare it to the Fantom or Triton, which are both workstations. I would love to have a v-synth, you can make some pretty messed up sounds with it. Take care, Nick

    2 Keyboards with 2000XL

    Hey, A good producer will make a KILLER beat using a cell phone and a rubber band, if he knows what he's doing. What you've laid out before us is an example where you have mediocre producers relying on the quality of their gear instead of the quality of their knowledge. A good producer will...

    Best RECORDING/MIXING SOFTWARE?

    Hotshotz, Why did you decide to go with Digital Performer 3 instead of Cubase or Logic? Just asking to benefit some of the Mac users here, I don't think anyone else here uses DP. Take care, Nick

    Have any of you PC producers seen this?

    Hotshotz, Boy, how did I know that? MOTU are a fabulous company if you have a Macintosh: awesome soundcards, a powerful sequencer...but if you're a PC person, they are the worst company ever. They make all this great hardware, write good drivers (extensions) for Mac, then have some clown...

    Have any of you PC producers seen this?

    Hotshotz, Are you on a Mac or PC? Deuce, The card is pretty brand new, I doubt that even the magazines have seen it yet. You're going to probably wait a few months before you can make an informed decision based on what other people have said. Take care, Nick

    Best RECORDING/MIXING SOFTWARE?

    Hey, You're talking about crash recovery. There's no real magic to it: whenever you load something, record something or edit something in Acid, it writes that information into a big temp file, which only gets destroyed when you close the program. If Acid or Windows crashes, it looks to see if...

    RIP Jack Tripper and Johnny Cash

    Hey, HELL YES!!!! I love that stuff. I can't decide who is funnier, Mr. Furley or Mr. Roper. Don't care what anyone says, Janet (Joyce DeWitt) is HOT. On a good evening, there will be back to back episodes of Three's Company, followed by Bob Newhart on Nick at Night or TV Land. Pure...

    RIP Jack Tripper and Johnny Cash

    Two great men passed away yesterday, John Ritter and Johnny Cash. I wasn't a huge fan of Johnny Cash, but he did a lot for music, both country and rock. John Ritter was part of one of my favorite tv shows as a kid, Three's Company. It seems like his career was taking off again with 8...
