    Monitors - why do I need them?!

    These guys are right. I did a mix-down on my home stereo and it sounded GREAT!!! Better than the pros. Then I listened to it on other stereos - worse than the average amatuer. When I've got the money, I'm springin for the monitors. Hope you do too.

    Roland SR-JV80 Wave Expansions

    It's been a couple years since I heard it, so I can't tell you if there are any that sound like 3 backup singers, but I'd guess yes. There are many different patches, not many of them "choir boys". Sounds like a good idea mixing real with sequenced. Hope it works for ya. Just had a thought...

    I just got a new keyboard...help me out

    We're in the same boat, so based on my own learnin process, I'd say just keep doin it. The shit I was makin a few years ago sucks ass compared to what I'm doin now. Practice? I guess. I don't know. Some constructive critisism -- your beats are too complex. I used to do the same thing. You...

    questions for the pro's

    I'm not a pro. I'm barely even an amatuer. But my two cents is that you let the drummer go buckwild, and everyone else can follow suit. Forget the click, and embrace the human imperfections.

    880EX and cd burners

    I was gonna buy Roland's cd-burner till I heard that I could do the same for much cheaper. What I need is this: burn music from the 880 backup data from the 880 in 8-track format for later editing burn cd's from a computer or cd-player backup computer data Roland's cd-burner does all...

    Roland VS-880EX Question

    I think you need a scuzzy. I'm not a computer geek, so I don't even know what the hell a scuzzy is, but I think you need it. Basically, I think it's a way to transfer the data digitally, so that whatever is recoreded on your 880 will be EXACTLY what ends up on the cd. Good luck; I'm workin on...

    VS880EX and cd burners

    I was gonna buy Roland's cd-burner that is designed for use with the VS series, but someone told me I could do the same things for much cheaper. Basically, I want it all: burn cd's from the 880 (obviously) backup data from the 880 in 8-track format for later editing burn cd's from either a...

    What keyboard should I buy considering my purpose?

    Mikeh is right on the mark. I got into sequencing accidentally. I bought a "consumer" keyboard for a couple hundred bucks just to do homework on (music major). It served my purpose at the time, but as my keyboarding abilities grew, I began to realize that it was a real piece of crap...

    Roland SR-JV80 Wave Expansions

    The oohs and aahs sound like crap. They're too perfect. You totally lose the human touch. But that may be something you're going for intentionally. It's hard to describe - they sound real because they're sampled recordings. But at the same time, they sound manufactured. Can't tell you...
