    Scratchable CD players -vs- Turntables

    for studio work i would go with the cd player. there are things that you could do with that that you wouldnt be able to do unless you had a dubplate, which is expensive and more trouble than its worth. how would you like scratches of your own rhymes? burn a cd of an accapella, and there you go...

    Rapper sign language

    just body language. its hard to spit without moving your hands. its not a "rhetorical device" -its just a natural thing to do when you spit. i'm sure some people make gestures, signs, etc. that have some meaning but that is not the general purpose.

    DIFFERENT hardware/software question

    ok, ok, i know the whole debate is rediculous, but thats not my purpose here. i would like to know FROM THOSE WHO WORK WITH BOTH. how do the sounds we get from software compare to the keyboards and racks? i have a motif racl that i am more that happy with..... i tend to use mostly organic...

    Rack Or keyboard

    that depends.... what are you using to sequence? if you have something already, then get the rack every time, because it saves you money. you can buy the midi keys but you need sequencing first of all. as far as sampling, the triton rack has it and the xv 5080 i think but the motif doesnt and...

    can classic albums still be made....

    that was the same thing as kweli's, you take away like four tracks AND THEN you have a classic..... songs like "The A$$" and that track with Busta Rhymes dont really cut it....

    synths (urban feel type)

    yeah, yeah, i know, but HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read the frickin article!!!!!! they dont use JUST a triton!!!!!! they got other gear too!!!

    can classic albums still be made....

    not so... a classic to you and me is one thing, but to have one that is universally recognized as one? of course that excludes pretty much everything on the market. thats why a classic is a classic. it stands above the rest.

    which beat maker here will make it big???

    man, as far as "getting into it" -at least with me- there is nothing wrong with having different views and perspectives and standing firmly behind them. i think (well i have) we all learn a lot from each other here because of those differences, you know? any how seriously, i hope the rest of...

    How Would You Use Reason 2.0 With An Mpc 2000 Xl?

    can classic albums still be made....

    um....well................. yep. just like we al had to sit there and endure camron's "hey ma" last summer. it is actually not the artist that is at fault there, its the fan's themselves, because the masses repeatedly reject anything outside of their narrow little boxes they call a mind...

    for the last time- hits do not = good. hot does not = good. i dont sit here and jock the east coast. im not on these cats nuts at all i'm just showing you what.............you know what? this is off topic. im not even going to finish this sentence. sorry Fade.

    which beat maker here will make it big???

    first of all, to everyoe who keeps mentioning 9th wonder as one who made it with fruity loops, he is sampling exclusively from records at the same time, and so it is his arranging skill that is doing it, not the software. he would do just as well with an mpc or asr.....so he isnt composing his...

    nah... that west coast, southern california sound is garbage. i'm from southern california. i hate it, musically. some of the underground stuff is ok at best, and the mainstream rap- mac ten, ice cube's newer albums, snoop, etc..... horrible, just horrible. "poppinj our collars, gettin them...
