    New Outkast..... What the hell?

    Personally I think the Horz are always tight...it's how you use them, I don't listen to people that tell me a certain sound isn't in or its not what people like to hear.....as a producer you gotta cut against the grain not produce what the next man does or try to sound like them....you make the...

    roland vs. triton

    See the Triton was way ahead of its time when it first came out but looking at it with how computer based production has advanced the triton is definitely to be appreciated by live gigging musicians not really the sit at home behind the board and mpc type musician........but people nowadays need...

    bullshit about quantizing

    Well I mean look if you don't quantize that's great but for some reason or another other people can pick up on it.....don't ask me....I mean if it's within a reasonably accurate vicinity of the realtime clock when you recorded or the metronome then it won't be too bad but if you have a lot of...
