    The Neptunes

    You need talent to make any music. But you need more talent to make your own melodies and chords and drums etc than you do to cut a sample and loop it over drums. Off Topic: Your signature is funny as hell LOL. :D

    The Neptunes

    I use to sample up a storm but now I find playing my own melodies over my own chords over my own basslines over my own drums more challenging. Sampling bores the shit out of me now. The elements are already there pre-made. Whats the challenge of it? I can sample in anything, MPC's, Computers...

    Mac vs.PC?

    Dont trip when the G5's come out Mac will be on top again. Until Intel goes Pentium 5. Its a cycle, but right now Mac users are gettin robbed by Steve Jobs.

    Mac vs.PC?

    Are you out of your mind? You have to be joking. Have you been hiding in a cave for the last 5 years? You sound like a brainwashed Apple salesman. There is no Mac that can compete with the fastest PC's period. At any price. Have you heard of Hyperthreading? Intel 3ghz Canterwood chipset? Look it...

    Has any one used reason 2.0 software to make hip hop beats?

    Sup Konductor. The only music software that needs special cards is Pro Tools. Reason comes in 3 CD's. No card needed. Well you need a good soundcard or course, but no special Reason card. Ya dig.

    Cubase Sx!!

    Devices > Device Setup > VST Multitrack > Control Panel. Actually I like working at 44.1khz because it takes less CPU power. Besides when you burn a cd it has to come back down to 44.1 so I dont see the point of working at 96khz.

    Erykah Badu & Common "Love of My Life"?

    Hay wassup. Dont get me wrong her album is soul foreal, theres a lot of live stuff on there. But what I mean is compared to most other neo-soul singers out right now (Vivian Green, Heather Headley, Jill Scott, etc.) Goapele has more underground hip hop flavor in addition to the soul. She has a...

    Syntrillium acquired by Adobe

    I'm kinda worried as far as wave editors go. SoundForge got bought out by Sony and now Cool edit by Adobe. Wavelab is owned by Pinnacle now. Those are all the best wave editors. They better not turn them into some type of wack half wave editor half video editor and take features out. For...

    Syntrillium acquired by Adobe

    Damn. I dont know what to think about that. Adobe's a good company tho but I dont know what they want with syntrillium. Hopefully they dont fuck Cool Edit up! I think something big is gonna happen tho. I dont know what but first Avid buys Protools (well that was a while ago), then Apple buys...

    What's Software Best Simulates The Mpc 2000 Xl?

    Do your thing man. If you like workin on it then get it. Get whatever you're most comfortable with. The MPC is cool, its easy to learn and it gets the job done.

    What's Software Best Simulates The Mpc 2000 Xl?

    Reason has that feature plus a lot more. Theres nothing you can do on the MPC that you cant do on Reason. Except sequence external midi-gear. Other than that Reason is killin the MPC. I think even the Yamaha Rs7000 has more features than the MPC.

    Erykah Badu & Common "Love of My Life"?

    Yeah Bilal's album is heat. Especially that track Mos Def produced. Goapele's album is on that level except its more hip hop. I wonder when Bilal's next one is comin out?

    Erykah Badu & Common "Love of My Life"?

    Yeah I think that album was after Lucy Pearl. I dont think it sold much. She got a nice track on the Brown Sugar soundtrack tho. Theres a chick named Goapele that has the hardest Soul album out. The album is Goapele-Even Closer. She's from Oakland Cali just like Raphael, and Dawn. Her album...

    Erykah Badu & Common "Love of My Life"?

    Oh yeah Lucy Pearl was dope. I used to have a crush on Dawn Robinson. Too bad she got kicked out the group for being a coke- head. She's probably wandering the streets of Oakland doing crack right now. What a waste of talent and a fine ass. :headbang:

    Erykah Badu & Common "Love of My Life"?

    Wassup, That instrument is Rhodes with effects on it. The most over used instrument in Soul and RB by far. Almost all RB and Soul songs have some type of Rhodes in the background. I love them but at the same time I hate them cuz everybody uses them. That beat was produced by Raphael...
