300 dollars to spend at Best Buy

Sorry, couldn't resist ;-)
(again, I didn't realise there was a special Cubase Pimpin' Ho edition)

lol.

Actually there is, and you can download it completely free with any p2p application!

Sorry, couldn't resist ;-)

But I guess with the number of questions about what microphone to use for rap vocals (I didn't realise that rap vocals had any particular microphone requirements over any other recording situation, so maybe I am an idiot too), someone would figure all the rap microphone experts that frequent this board would know a thing or two about rap recording software (again, I didn't realise there was a special Cubase Pimpin' Ho edition).

I once faked up a Cakewalk studioware panel that had sliders called 'attitude' and 'balls factor' that did nothing but actually fooled the person I was recording - come to think of it, he was recording a rap at the time...

lmao are there actually people out there that go into like edonkey, and actually search for "rap recording software", or "rap mic's"???? that seems really funny if so...

In all seriousness (which is rare for me), the only thing that I know of that is rap focused music creation software is the Hip Hop Ejay series, which I believe you can plug a microphone into, and comes with 'slammin' beats.

Or, look at Sonar Home Studio, as well as being a decent MIDI and audio sequencer it has the groovy Acid looping thing going for those 'slammin' beats. It's one of the easier sequencers to use and it's only $149 RRP or $229 for the XL edition (has extra synths and loops - 'slammin' of course).

You could always spend some time downloading demos of things like Reason, Acid, Cubase, Sonar, Vegas, Wavelab, etc, decide which one you like and what is in your price range, and then buy it, but that seems like the rational way of doing it.

It's much easier to just ask at this forum a question along the lines of:

I am a person who has their own individual likes and dislikes, equally I have my own equipment setup which is completely unique - what do you group of strangers who don't know anything about me and whom I'll never meet (but who happen to post to the same bulletin board I seem to have found myself on) think is the best thing for me

Well, rap boy may not be the jokester I'm referring to (Here is an official public apology, rap boy! Sorry I took out my disgust on you!) but I still think I'm right......

there IS someone here on this forum who does this "senseless question of the week" thing on a regular basis, and thinks it's funny. It aint.

And, Daniel Reichman, if "all seriousness" is rare for you, then you will probably live longer than any of the rest of us! Thanks for the chuckles......
