    get your regroove mixer on in r4

    They bit that off the MPC. Back when i used Reason a lot that was one of the features that I really wished it had. I hated how shuffle/swing was global too, that bugged the shit outa me. Really glad they fixed that finally. I think that the groove mixer is the shit though. It helps give a more...

    the most interesting recording process i've heard of

    As an engineer that would be a little annoying but if it renders a dope song i cant complain i guess.

    the most underrated producer

    Id have to say ANT but I guess he is getting growing respect constantly so I dont know if he counts then???....I still say ANT tho because hes still on the come up. But for someone older thats been in the game for a while id have to say Lord Jamar.

    Sick of the music industry. Jaded? I sure as hell am.

    Sounds to me like your just being real with yourself and are acknowledging the fact that this industry is one fickle dog-eat-dog world. I mean, i would totally relate since I think we all have our own threshold and you can only deal with so much bullshit and plastic personalities before you have...

    It def is a business like anything else. They know they have niche and so they run with it and charge more. Its like fucking pharmaceuticals. The universities are not exempt either but they def charge less in comparison. As far as music technology in general...If your an industry major and...

    OPEN LABS NEKO TSE or MAC BOOK PRO/APOGEE INTERFACE/AKAI MPK49

    Man, i would get the MacBookPro with the Apogee Interface handsdown. Even tho the Neko is like a ridiculously cool, fancy spaceship - the MacBook is so much more useful for various other tasks plus ur getting phenomenal converters on an Apogee interface whereas the Neko doesnt even offer that...

    I think both are valid, and it comes down to what u said...You need to make shit happen on your own and not expect your degree to buy you a job. I believe regardless of going to full sail or a 4 yr, its still a total gamble and more of a "be at the right place at the right time" or "know the...

    Sorry man, i havent checked back here for a day or so... I went to an accredited university for a bachelors in Recording Arts. CSU CHICO to be precise. Mainly due to my lack of funds to go elsewhere, but it just so happens that CSUCHICO is actually one of the top respected universities for...

    Callin all 2500 Owners....

    Its the machine I wish I bought! :( lol. The greatest strength the mpc has over many other platforms is the ability to sequence horribly fast and give it a live feel. Plus time shift and the mute screen are the freakin shit. Or if you know you want the entire program to cut each pad off...

    wordpress or blogspot

    Smith is right. Blogspot is def way easier. Wordpress requires more time to get going but apparently is more flexible.

    wordpress or blogspot

    Im pretty sure Wordpress is where its at in comparison to blogspot. At least thats what I keep reading everywhere. I was gonna start my own as well and then just decided it was more cost efficient and easier (at least for me) to make my own website from scratch.

    I think your gonna get mixed feedback from everyone honestly depending on their experience, own opinions, and if theyve attended already or not. Generally speaking, I think it sounds like you know what u want to do which is good. It took me a long ass time to decide the same thing. Full Sail...

    Thats def critical... Im not sure if this applies to all universities like the one im at, but we def never had much new gear to learn on. We were fortunate to get a Mackie X-Buss to mix on! I know for a fact that other schools get waaaay better funding as far as gear needs go so in that respect...

    Does anyone use LIve with Logic??

    Yo peep out this guys tutorial out: This is for Logic 8 though, I dont know what version your on. This video is in regards to using Reason with Logic, but its the exact same thing with Ableton. If that that doesnt help hit me back. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=<object width="425"...

    reason users

    Yeah I believe Reason gives you -3dB to -6dB of gain reduction on the stereo buss when bouncing. Its still good practice to not monitor with the maximizer on until your finished with your mix though. Wuts good NN??....Been a minute!
