    the new guy, wit dat heat

    its not that the xp 80 is bad, but when the bigger, better, badder brother is around for a good price, why waste your time? i mean there are options besides the fantom, but it comes down to personal taste after that.

    drum machines

    well, what else are you using with it? thats the best place to start. are you going to be sampling, do you sequence with your pc, do you use mostly keys, do you want to use mostly keys, or live guitars, things like that? and what is your budget? the obvious first response is the mpc, but there...

    the new guy, wit dat heat

    hey, given that fantoms are so cheap now i would advise to go for the fantom over the xp 80. i just sold mine a few months ago and while it was a good board the fantom is a SERIOUS upgrade over it, as well as several of the newer modules/keyboards. the motif rack was what i replaced it with and...

    Why do i need outputs on a PC audio card?

    what do i need outs on an audio card for? obviously they would be used to run through a mixer and through to a mixdown deck, but why would i do that? i can record, mix, and burn to disk all inside my pc, right? is there something else that i am missing?

    Blowing Up

    yup... that is key. 40 bar loops are boring (they do have their place) and dont really show off a whole lot of ability. bridges, hooks, intros, etc.,..... are vital to success i think. of course it isnt a universal rule, but it is good practice to include these pieces into a beat.

    dopest hip-hop duo... ever?

    gangstar better lyrically? guru isnt top 50 lyrically... his flow is like, "you know im the best/ ill pass any test" and their "greatest hits" album was justa collection of material. they have never had major radio or video play (early 90's, thats about it, but even that was nothing major) hell...

    Why do people hate Eminem?

    yup.... well after that post i can see that there is a deeper current to your thinking. my point about it not being ok for blacks to have to deal with certain things, the racial issues that dominate or society, is that there is a double standard coming from many blacks in this regard. i feel...

    Why do people hate Eminem?

    who is "him", that God isnt going to forgive? "uncle sam"? who is "uncle sam"? the government, the white man, who? is it every white person? most white people i know have never killed, brutalized or mutilated anyone, much less a black man. and yes, God CAN and DOES forgive people for much worse...

    Why do people hate Eminem?

    hmmmm.... actually i think that those who "do it for the love" say that because they arent in it for the money. i am not ding this for the money (i hope) i will one day see from it, but because i love to do it. that doesnt mean i wont take money..... i am sure i will wind up turning a few things...

    Blowing Up

    well, i say that you do what you do and if it strikes a chord with people you WILL blow up. thats the bottom line.... because you can introduce a different perspective to it, the way the roots did. they changed peoples perceptions of hip hop song structures, albeit a smaller portion as relative...

    Why do people hate Eminem?

    hey mr messenger... "starting to question my credibility as a judge of hip hop talent"? give me a break..... in other words "if you do no like these guys then you must not know anything about hip hop, because they were ahead of their time, they did it before so and so and...." first of all...

    For Sale: Proteus 2000 and Korg TR Rack

    actually i traded my motif rack for the trinity and proteus..... the reason being the best offer anyone was giving me was $700 and i figured that i would be able to move these for a little more, but it looks like i will get about the same for them. i already sold the mpc, so there is no turning...
