    Headphones

    I use to spend a lot of time in headphones tracking acoustic guitar or very rarely my own vocal as well as general production and mixing when the kid (the older one) went to bed. I use the same pair of Beyer Dynamic DT-100's that were given to me (they were used then) when I was 17... I'm 35...

    Most of the charity shops here have regionally rotating stock, so if records don't shift after a few week in one shop they get moved to the charities shop in the next town... There was a charity shop I went to and they had some real shite in the crate... I asked the volunteer nicely if they had...

    Thanks man. He's just beautiful (not often I use beautiful when using the masculine - but he really is!) Totally doesn't like to sleep at night... Seems to have a thing for Dub (& the new Raekwon Album) Are you thinking like an illMusik 'dropbox'? I sample direct into Maschine. So only 'put...

    You UK?! I'm West Yorkshire. Not getting much time for making at the minute; got a 6 week old baby... Hard work... Should settle down soon(ish) though and I'm still collecting records as normal so I'll be ready to work as soon as the time frees up!

    WTF! Tascam DP-24SD Digital Portastudio

    I've thought a couple of times about getting another multitracker and an MPC 1000/2500 and getting rid of the computer altogether... There's a lot of time spent (I imagine by a few of us) resolving computer issues that could be better served in a hardware setup.... I've had a few portastudios...

    Attack of the Beats! - Battle #53

    Some dope stuff on here... I might get my 'brave' on at some point although I reckon my stuff will sound real underproduced in comparison.

    Just picked up a DJ Tech VTT-101

    Yeah, they're normally £70+ I'd been thinking of getting a controller for a while but I'm limited on space anyway... This single-platter could be just what I need... I do need to do some figuring on how I incorporate it into my set-up!

    Just picked up a DJ Tech VTT-101

    The UK Amazon site is flogging off the VTT-101 for £12.99. A friend of mine snaffled a pair... I've just picked up 1. At an 80+% discount I couldn't resist... Is the US Amazon site running a similar deal?

    How can I make my sound more professional?

    Without more info my guess would be a combination of your room and your monitoring set-up... Good monitors will definitely help... But can only go so far in an inadequate listening environment. If you already have good monitors you need to be looking at the positioning of them in your room and...

    Who are your favorite producers?

    Maschine Sampling

    You can bring that hat down in the mix but it'll still choke the initial sample.

    Maschine Sampling

    Create a 16 bar pattern and insert the pattern at the 10th &12th bars... If they need to be 'choked' you'll have to add a sample (maybe a hi-hat hit) to that group (any un-used pad) and assign a choke and insert where appropriate.
