    Forget About DEFINING YOUR SOUND!

    Funny you said that. Thats a good example, since it does basically coincide with my topic. Thats a great example actaully...For instance, I personally have heard tha new outkast and initially thought it was shit. But then i realized that its just on some other shit that i wasnt specifically...

    Forget About DEFINING YOUR SOUND!

    I say forget about trying to define your sound or your style....and instead continue to EXPERIMENT and GROW. I figure regardless of what tha hell you do with your beats - your still gonna project "YOUR OWN SOUND"...even if your not trying to. So!!... why not keep tryin new things instead of...

    is underground a reaction to mainstream?

    Thats what i feel too....But Money can say otherwise and change even tha dopest cats into freakin herbs. From tha looks of things i think you can bet that that will never happen with tha Jux Crew or say, Rhymesayers - but im just throwing out there tha fact that it is a possiblity. Like Slug...

    sonar or cep

    Well Sonars not a bad prgm though - i jus think its more cryptic than cooledit and thats why i prefer it between tha two. Sonar is capable of doing alot of complex things - but so is CoolEdit....Im just too lazy right now to look in tha manual and better understand all of tha functions it can...

    sonar or cep

    Ive used both to record vocals into as well as do wave editing - and i have to say that CEP is more to my liking.......It just has better ergonomics and is more intuitive in my opinion. Plus, Adobe jus bought CEP and gave it some new name that i cant quite remember right now, but anyway Adobe...

    is underground a reaction to mainstream?

    Like you said - TV is where you become advertised and tha masses can become aware of who are...So tha industry is in charge of that - not tha artists...but it kinda is in tha artists hands as well though - when you consider tha fact that tha artist is tha one who can change what is COOL now and...

    Bin. to Wav. (converting akai to Wav.)

    Ok but it wont let me burn tha Bin and tha Cue at tha same time??? It only lets you choose one file at a time to burn - thats even if i hold control and try to select another file like tha bin if i already selected tha cue - so what do i do?.....Do you only burn tha cue file then?
