    production software..preferences

    Reasons usually real CPU friendly tho. Even on a 512mb system you should be ok as long your not running too much FX or too may Maelstroms.....More RAMs always a safe bet tho.

    Check this dudes flow..who is this cat?

    Please believe that! - But i found it gets progressively easier as you grow as a producer and put yourself out there more. The more gigs you become a part of and the more people you touch and get down with tend to start a chain reaction and from there more and more people wanna get down and the...

    Check this dudes flow..who is this cat?

    I mean, its cool to be able to mold an artist if you get the opportunity but its much easier to just bypass all that bullshit and find an artist thats really about what your about in the first place otherwise your puttin way more work than necessary. You should still be able to help mold your...

    Check this dudes flow..who is this cat?

    A group called Oddjobs flipped that sample a while back in like 03, i liked that joint better but as far as the kids rhymeskills, hes just aiight to me. He does have somethin about him though but content-wise i aint hearin anything that i havent heard before and its def not progressive.

    Movie of the summer/spring....

    Iron man looks DOPE! Downey is a fucking cool ass actor so this should be good. Im actually waitin for Indie 4 tho. Hope it isnt a dud. The Transformer kids in it and hes not bad but he doesnt seem to fit in a Indiana Jones film.

    Get that "real drum" feel popin'

    Nice im a big advocate of natural feeling drums.....Overheads do def add that full sound....They can also seem to add too much room to the drums sometimes though, which im not a fan of for hiphop at least.

    12" 800 MHz iBook G4

    2 gigs of RAM, and a harddrive of at least 80 gigs, w/ a processor thats at least 2 gHz will be good for sessions that have a lot of tracks and heavy effects or use a lot of synths that are CPU hungry.

    Polow Da Don using stock GarageBand loops?

    Thats my bad then.

    12" 800 MHz iBook G4

    Word, Reasons real friendly to your CPU as well....The only time ive seen Reason choke on a system that had 512DDR was when too many Malstroms and XTs along with FX were assigned.

    12" 800 MHz iBook G4

    $150s a steal, but that may not be the best spec'd machine for music production?.....You typically want waaaay more ram than that. Im sure you can find a copy of Live for it though. Lives a pretty CPU friendly program actually, plus if it gets bad you can always freeze the tracks that arent in...

    Polow Da Don using stock GarageBand loops?

    Your kind of distorting what im saying here though Holmz. Its not like im saying you gotta be some super producer that is the king of digging in every record shop - im just adding that (IMO of course) using something like apple loops is a easy way out. Sure its royalty free and its just...

    Polow Da Don using stock GarageBand loops?

    No doubt. Im not even defending him in that respect cuz he did act like a buster. My gripe is on another tangent.

    Polow Da Don using stock GarageBand loops?

    Fa sho. Im not sayin its not valid in the sense that legally its not sound - im just saying from a producers perspective i find it played and unoriginal to use "premade" loops. When hiphop got its feet on the ground it didnt start with sample cds and the like. People were using loops, but they...

    Polow Da Don using stock GarageBand loops?

    I say if your gonna bite loops - find em yourself! Thats true hiphop to me anyways. Its kind of like building a website versus using myspace. Cuz dig it - myspace does everything for you already right? So all you gotta do is put in your info and your done. But when u build a site from scratch...

    EQ Automation: do a lot of you cats do it?

    The only time i ever automate EQ, which is super rare - is to achieve an effect that you cant get otherwise, but not fix problems in that sense. Rather, its to create an effect, like sweeping through freq's with a slightly narrow Q.....It just depends but i really dont bother automating EQ. I...
