    Mel-Man.... Rich?

    well, heres the thing: simplicity is a very underated aspect of production! every beat does its own thing with the listener, and even heads like diamond and primo arent the most technical guys around. the real issue to think about when making a drum track is effectiveness for its purpose. a...

    Proteus 2000???

    well, i actually own one now, and it is actually a great machine! the effects tweaking is by far the easiest i have seen and the midi interface is the best as well, you literally just change the channel.... no implimentation, nothing like that! soundwise, the drums are better for hip hop then...

    While were at it - Who's the Most Overrated Rapper?

    yeah. 50 just the same, although pac is deserving of actual praise. i think pac was a good artist, but he wasnt "the greatest" like everyone says he is now. he was what dmx is, what ja rule is now. people didnt talk about him the way they do now before he died. we say the same thing about every...

    Why do people hate Eminem?

    yeah, i have to agree with deuce.. all he does is run his mouth. yes, a lot of cats have just ran their mouth off at him, but look at his targets in the past: cage (a nobody, really), nsync (please...... yeah, eminem is real hard dissing boy bands who wouldnt do anything) brittany spears.... i...

    Most Underrated Rapper of alltime?

    mos def and kweli never get mentioned as "the best lyricist" its always ras kass, nas and rakim...... these two, and common as well really do not get there due for their lyrical skills..... and lets not forget about miss lauren hill, who will smoke any female on the charts....

    Rapping versus Producin

    as far as money, producers seem to eat better as a whole then rappers..... if it came down to one or the other, i would stick to production because it really leads to so many more oppurtunties; i.e., film scores, commercials, video games, etc..... the thing with rapping is that you dont need...

    MPC .wav files to Cubase SX....

    ok..... so the program itself, and not the individual hits? all of my drums were individual samples, not sample disks or anything, if that changes anything. (it doesnt look like it, but you never know) anyhow they are saved as programs, so i should be fine. would sampletank work for this? it...

    Boring production

    well................. let me just say that while i am also bothered by the style that has invaded the airwaves, there have been many artists that have come to the forefront in the last year that are very good for hip hop.... let me start with little brother and 9th wonder's production.... say...

    Will the Neptunes' new CD be the dawn of producer oriented records?

    well, hi tek released an album a couple of years ago that took the exact same approach as the new neptunes album, and it was a very good album start to finish, as did the creators.. those of you from europe may be a bit more familiar with them than the guys here in the us. the neptunes arent...

    Head to Head: Cubase SX vs Digi 001

    yeah, it does seem like digidesign/pro tools is the Triton/MPC of the recording side of things.... in other words, the company and the consumers that buy them have convinced a lot of people that this particular product is the ONLY way to go..... me and my friend wound up trading our xp 30 for...
