Lupe - LASERS
Big fan of Lupe but was a little disappointed with this, it's good but I was hoping for a bit more. 'The Show Goes On' probably the best track IMO. -
Portable Audio Interface
Yeah as thedreampolice pointed out I have a macbook (not pro) so it has no firewire, my current soundcard (M-Audio 1814) is FW which is why I'm changing, I also want something smaller so I can carry it around with my laptop. I use Record now for my audio stuff but I've used Pro Tools for years... -
100% Sample Based -vs- Slightly Composed
I think if you're able to compose and by that I mean compose stuff to a decent standard and create good quality sounds then I think you will always be looking to add something to the beat even if a large part of it is sampled. More often than not it's because the producer isn't good enough at... -
Portable Audio Interface
My new macbook arrived today so I'm looking to get a new portable audio interface that I can carry around with it. It's got to be USB and ideally I want 2x2 in/out, it can be more but I don't need them. The mbox mini is the obvious choice and the one I'll probably go for just wondered if anyone... -
ASCAP having problems? Sacrifices in payments
Thought I'd point out that I deal with ASCAP & BMI (& SESAC) every day so if anyone wants questions answered regarding these then let me know. What I would say briefly in answer to some of the above, is that yes you should be joining one of the collection societies if you're getting any kind of... -
It feels sooooo good to be baaaacccckkk!
Been really on and off with music the last couple of years but finally managed to get myself back into it recently. Been a LONG time since I posted on here regularly but I'm gonna try and get on here more often now! Been really busy working on the career front and managed to get myself a good...- MarkN

Professional VS Bedroom Producers !
haha this is weird, I've literally just started working on beats again the last couple of days after being on and off for years. I thought I'd come by the site again to see what's up and the first thing I see is one of my old posts from waaaay back! Good to see some of the old heads still... -
Reason 5 and Record 1.5 within a week or so.
Gonna buy Record this week so I'm eligiable for the upgrade, i think it's definitely a big step up after beta testing it! -
Sample length in reason
Ah well to answer my own question for future reference.... In NN-XT load a sample, click on the smaple so it's highlighted and then underneath the main window (with the module expanded) there is a knob named 'Play Mode' change this to 'FW-SUS' and that solves the problem! Big thanks to... -
Sample length in reason
ahh glad to hear there is an easier way, where abouts is the 'play mode' setting, and also are we talking about on an NNXT or NN19 or whatever? -
Sample length in reason
I've been using Reason for years but I've never found a simple solution to this. When sampling with an MPC you can hit a pad and play back the sample and if you change it to the right mode the sample will only play as long as you hold the pad, as soon as you let go of the pad the sample stops... -
How many people here play the Drums?
only when im playing rock band on the xbox! -
Should I Cop?
to be honest with your budget you would probably be better off getting logic 8 rather than pro tools you will only be able to afford basic pro tools mpowered or Le which has a limited track count etc of 32 tracks iirc which isn't a great deal when you start recording bands etc. you can upgrade... -
JayZ follows Madonna lead, signs with Live Nation
it makes a lot of sense to introduce the 360 deal more and more, one of the main problems of the music industry is its reluctance to change, the world isn't the sam place it was 50 years ago so contracts for artists need to be updated! like you said at the moment the 360 deal isn't that... -
Remmy Ma gets 8
there must be a big wake up call all of a sudden you go from pretending to be a gangster to having to actually do 8 years inside where you're like fuck i'm an idiot!- MarkN

Whats Gas where you are?
of course people over here speak up about they have protests here over fuel etc but what did it achieve? nothing! due to the war mostly fuel has gone up again and due to the way this country is run they rely heavily on tax from fuel thats the way this country is! i wasn't saying that you...- MarkN

Where is Hiphop going? Any predictions for 08/09?
a lot of interesting points in here... a few of my own points i think we need to remember when hip hop first started it wasn't controlled by anyone it was being made by the people for the people as the music industry took notice they changed it and moulded it into what it needed to be in order... -
Auto Tune plugin suggestions
i'd definately go for melodyne, plus they got a new piece of software coming out from the company that make melodyne which allows you to pick out certain notes of chords on instrument recordings and adjust them so you don't have to do a re-take over one small mistake! haven't heard it work yet... -
Subliminal messages/Conditioning/Backmasking in songs/production
I think the biggest tool they use is bombardment! i've found myself a number of times start liking a song after i hear it on the radio a hundred times an i'll think back and im like i hated this track three weeks ago whats changed! well nothing except the fact that ive heard it so many times... -
Whats Gas where you are?
you really need to stop moaning! i wish UK prices we are cheap as yours is ridiculous over here at the moment and its only ever gunna get worse the price of petrol is just gunna go up and up until it runs out! i think the manufacturers are holding back replacement technology until the time that...- MarkN
