    guerva, you are one funny cat... hey whats up Mr. Freeman. on to the topic... welcome to illmuzik, um....chewy? if you have checked the site out for any length of time, you will know that we arent like other sites. the mods keep a pretty good eye on things so that they dont get out of hand...

    Im assuming its just me...but does anyone else think 50 Cent bites tha big one???

    you know, there are plenty of ways to keep yourself out of jail... not selling crack is a good start, moving away from the hood with all the money he supposedly MADE from selling crack would be a good second move, maybe trying to get a job-gasp!!!!- there's an idea!! i dont want to here how hard...

    General Software Question...

    you use pro tools to make beats? everything i have been told is that pro toolsis horible for beats..... anyhow i am still looking. i found a cheaper version of the aardvark ($350, which saves me $150) and so i am seriously leaning towards the cubase. the Digi 001 looks real good, but again you...

    General Software Question...

    well, i have been researching a lot of software lately. it seems that most people here use reason or fruity loops, and some use cubase, cakewalk, pro tools, etc. i have been looking at software and the cards i will need to run them, and allthough i am sure that this is a dumb question i will ask...

    Cubase Sx!!

    i have been considering cubase for a while and have done a fair amount of research. it looks like i am going with cubase sx and the aardvark 24/96 Pro i think its called... the Aardvark comes with Cakewalk 9, or something like that.... would this work well for latency? what exactly is latency...

    What software instruments do u use?

    wha-? fruity loops is better than cubase sx? you sure? anyhow, sampletank looks great on paper. sonic foundry has some good demos i have heard, and the Halion instruments are good. all i have heard are demos, so i do not know how well they work.

    Are we not tellin or is this a Industry Secret?

    he didnt say anything about RE-creating anything; he said that you can create different textures using the base sound with the current software. if you have been doing sound design for 10 years, i am sure you have great knowledge regarding this topic, but your argument is a bit out of place. we...

    So You Wanna Make Beats?

    ???? no, trust, me, not just 'anyone" can make a beat with an mpc. even after much practice. i have been kind enough to let many people try on my mpc and most people have no sense of rythm, and almost everyone will use the stupid little percussion sounds on a keyboard to do a drum line... most...

    Digi 001 and Sampletank: good combo?

    if i had the digi 001 pro tools le setup with the sampletank plug in, i wouldnt need another sequencer, right? i am under the impression that Pro Tools does both audio and midi. am i wrong in this thinking? i have heard the sampletank demos... very good, similar to the halion vst plug ins. i...

    So You Wanna Make Beats?

    yeah, i think that sentiment has been beat to death. of course you have to be musically inclined, you have to have a certain measure of natural talent, you need certain skills- but that has nothing to do with someone seeking out a learning method. reading articles on techniques has helped me...

    So You Wanna Make Beats?

    billy bathgate... man... someone isnt "wack" because they want to learn a few things they may not have known. you act as if people are supposed to know it all from the get.. someone might be undecided, and watching that video may have sealed the deal for someone and made them more motivated. i...

    Digital Multitrack Recording Workstations

    ???? ok... i recomend NOT getting into a vs-type recorder, unless you have the $$$ and dont really need anything else. i am fully convinced that these are a waste for those on a budget.

    Hip Hop And Jerseys!

    thats got to be the dumbest look in hip hop, ever... and that includes lees and grandmaster flash... i dont like styles, but i would have loved to be there. the throwbacks are cool, once in a while, but thats all we see nowadays. oh well, people can dress how they want. you wouldnt look at me...

    More Eminem Beef.....Vs Dilated!!!

    lol.... funny stuff. i guess there is nothing more to discuss, since robin has shown all of us the light. ev came pretty well, and i think he was deserving of that spotlight, because he is a very good underground mc. he wont sell a mil, but that isnt what he does; he rocks shows well. and he...

    who uses cubase?

    the akai and tr rack would be add ons later- a year down the line, maybe two... just because i prefer the feel of hardware. i am selling both, and i am making the current switch based on financial circumstances, not because i prefer one piece over the other. the tr rack and jv modules would be...

    Korg PXR4-4track...Is it Worth iT???

    how much $$$ you got to play with? i would advise the software route if you are just beginning. i have been at this for a while, and i keep having to shell out more money just to get up to speed and have a complete system.... so i am seling my two hardware units and going the pc route myself. i...

    Korg PXR4-4track...Is it Worth iT???

    well, if you are using these for hip hop, you will ned a traditional mixer board and you would basically use the boss/korg/fostex as a mixdown deck before you put it to tape ordisc.

    Korg PXR4-4track...Is it Worth iT???

    no. you need a REAL mixer (mackie, etc.,) the mr-8 has only one input. (actually two...maybe 3?) and one of these that has a stereo input- the boss machine should work perfectly. your looking at several hundred dollars here.
