    Starter synth/sampler?

    TDuke is right. Can't beat software if you wanna go cheap. If you need to go with hardware, it's best to get something a few years old. The Emu samplers are great. They have fairly decent synth capabilities as well. The Kurzweil samplers are not every easy to program or learn, but they are also...

    Which monitors do I choose?

    I use Yorkville YSM1s. --- www.yorkville.com --- I also have a Digi001 and a G4 based studio. The Yorkvilles are good. Not great. They are inexpensive and fairly accurate. I've had them for about 7 years now. I wanna upgrade, but no money in sight right now. Mackies if you can afford it...

But first, remember to save the original sample and make a backup copy. Then try any and everything you can...

    ***Making Synth Tips***

    The primary struggle with synthesis is not the knob turning, but the slanguage. I always used to get lost trying to figure out what I had done, because I didn't under stand the language attached to the functions of a synth. A few years ago, I started to study up. I ain't great now, but I do feel...

    I jus Ordered an mpc. what type of keyboard can i use?

    Yeah. You can record and save your beats in the computer in a DAW program and save them as MP3 files and sample/record them if you want. But, I suggest that you record your vocals and your MPC tracks to the computer for mixing and editing. Then save the master mix as a WAV file and MP3 file...

There are millions of softsynths available. if you wanna get an old school sound, Oddity and Moog Modular V are...

    Russel Simmons...

    Yeah. I saw some of that too. Just when I wanna hate his punk ass, Russell does something not only smart, but profound. Dude's been on that since the beginning. As he gets older, he's gonna be even more powerful and helpful. I still think that Def Jam watches and waits while everyone else does...
