Whatup fellas,
This question is mostly directed towards you hip-hop headz, but anybody with suggestions obviously spout out. I work the overnight shift (11pm-7am) as a Valet in a Hotel here in Seattle and usually have like 3-4 hours a night where I can do pretty much as I please with my time. I've only been doing it for bout 6months and spend most of my time surfin the net, readin up on stuff/sites like this one, trying to learn to get my tracks as professional sounding as possible, yada, yada, yada; anyways, I'm trying to figure out a way of bringing my production into work with me, can't beat getting paid to make music. So I guess my question is what sampler, what sequencer, etc out there do you think would be best for me to bring to work. I used to own this http://www.zzounds.com/a--2676837/love.musicp=p.KORES1&z=1326378107112 and something similar (hopefully better) may be the thing.
So, it's gotta be:
1. Portable--able to fit in a normal size backpack.
2. Able to sequence/loop, basically good for writing drum loops, grooves, fills, etc.
3. Be nice if it had a sampler, or maybe just a nice refillable/ customizable sample bank.
4. Be around (+/-100) $500(US).
Thanks for any ideas,
Laj
