    The N word (yea i went there)

    I know plenty of all races and I don't know any whites personally that use the word. Most blacks I know use it often, and a large percentage of hispanics use it. The way I see it is the hispanic population that has no understanding of the word's historical context. They see blacks using it in...

    asr-x pro vs. eps 16+

    Can you multipitch samples across the asr-x? If so that may make it a better choice. I enjoy the 16+ but I use an sp1200 for drums, so I avoid maxing out its memory with 8 tracks. Also, I know this is bad luck, but I have not had the overheating problem with my eps-16+. With nothing else, I...
