    best producers?

    Sho you right Fingaz. The Neptunes not only use the same basic set of sounds, but they repeat alot of the same rhythms and patterns in songs they produce. "Lapdance" is basically the same as the song they did with Babyface. The song they did for Philly's Finest is basically the same as the new...

    best producers?

    I just noticed this thread and felt that I had to reply to Trak's dis of Pimp C of UGK. I'm not sure whether Pimp C is the main producer or it's a combo of he and Bun B, but Cat was right in his praise of them. I would not say that they are the best in the world, but if you listen to their body...

    some1 please give info on making beats?

    JS here is my two cents: If you have never ever screwed around with equipment then be warned that you are in for a bit of a learning curve no matter what you start out with. Don't expect to get the latest keyboard or drum box and start cranking out the bombs off the bat. However, you...

    Atari setup with cubase

    OK, let me say this first: I have no idea what I'm talking about. I only have ideas of what I want to accomplish. I want to buy a Roland 1680 and use that for recording tracks from my keyboard. I want to get some sort of computer+sequencing program setup and record only midi data from my...

    roland or computer setup? what's better?

    Do you find the 880ex as hard to get used to as some say? Did you use the video manual? Has the quality been such that you would feel confident releasing your work on cd for the world to hear? Also, What outboard gear such as comressors, pres, and effects boxes do you use? What do you think...

    roland or computer setup? what's better?

    I am about to jump into digital recording. I really wanted to get the Omnistudio because I understand that it sounds great and computer based recording is supposed to be the way to go for flexibility, features, expandability and sound quality. The problem is that all the conflicts and problems I...

    any cake user can answer this

    I am a brand new midi and cakewalk user. I have an Ensoniq EPS keyboard and cakewalk pro audio 9 . I just got the midi cable to run from the board to the joystick/midi port on my computer. I want to record audio tracks, not midi tracks, from my keyboard's sequencer into cake and have each...

    soundcard preamp better then mackie?

    Thanks for th info guys. Gidge, I'm glad I could find someone with hands-on experience with the Audiophile. I guess I should do what my heart was telling me was the right move all along and save a few more weeks for the omni. Damn, if I had $300 bucks a couple days ago, someone had an...

    How good is Audiophile?

    I am only going to be recording keyboards and drum machines - no live band stuff. I don't mind having to track things one or two tracks at a time. If the audiophile's sound quality is good, then I would rather just spent $150 on it now and later maybe pickup a used mackie 1202 for about $200...

    How good is Audiophile?

    I would just like to get some opinions on the m-Audio Audiophile card. I haven't really seen any posts that brag on it yet, but I was thinking about getting it because the price is so good. How does it compare to the overall sound of the omnistudio which I hear is fantastic? I don't believe it...

    soundcard preamp better then mackie?

    I am about to get into computer recording on a budget. I know the Omnistudio is suppose to be stellar, but I would rather just spend $150 on the audiophile if the sound quality is very good. Is it when compared to the omni? My big concern is preamps. Ads always say the preamps in the omni are...

    How to set up sync tracks or sync tones

    I am extremely amateurish at this computer thing. I don't even have a proper setup yet. All I have is my Ensoniq EPS 16+, a pII 600 with 160mg, and demo versions of ntracks and Cakewalk to get a feel for things. I simply want to experiment for the time being until I get the Omnistudio and the...

    is there an easy way to sync audio tracks?

    These are probably easy questions for any of you with any experience with computer recording. I am just beginning and am using both CW pro aud 9 and n-tracks trials. I am trying to record audio tracks in either using my old Ensoniq EPS. My audio card is a Soundblaster card which came with my...

    Looking for a workstation

    I don't know how much money you have to spend and that makes a difference as well as how willing you are to sit down and learn a complex keyboard. Eveyone knows that the Triton is THE board if you want everything(sampling,effects, mindblowing sounds, expandability), but I'm sure there is a nice...
