    You guys that use or have used multiple DAWs...

    LouBez I'm Curios, what issues have you had with the export audio in maschine? The problem i have discovered with the audio export with maschine, is how it calculates loops. Example: say i make a beat that is exactly a 2 bar loop - say like a dj premier style beat....and all i want to do...

    Layering kick drums...

    dont over think it. what have the greats done? dilla, premier, rza, alchemist, madlib, etc.? they are sampling breaks and chopping them. They probably are eq'ing, compressing, layering, and/or doing nothing. But they are not always doing it all at the same time. see what im saying? it all...

    decent site about playing the bass

    thanks! i thought the same too. I found that site and read all the way through it, i confirmed alot I sort of figured out on my own and taught me some new stuff too. I think for sample based producers there is alot of good info, especially this part...

    decent site about playing the bass

    http://www.studybass.com/study-guide/ there is some good info on how to play the bass, especially the part of roots & fifths, and knowing chords. something ive gotten use to figuring out when sampling, figuring out what bass notes to play with my samples. Take that knowledge and apply it...

    MPC 2500 slow os no updates?

    yeah, that sucks. It definately can be a full time job monitoring forums, putting your ears out, sifting through good and bad stuff...but you can gain alot from it, if not ideas, atleast customer loyalty. I think thats why alot of users respond well to JJOS, because he's listening. Its about...

    Swing/Groove

    for sure. using an mpc, thats a good use of 16 levels. you select your hihat turn 16 levels velocity (as opposed to tuning) and at minimum alternate loud & quiet on the down and up beats. does wonders.

    Beat Thang sampling by Lady Tha ProducHer

    well, i dont want to hash it all up. I'm new here and dont want to be that dude talking trash, etc. but here are some links that will give you an idea of what i meant. basically my lack of support boils down to BK being unprofessional about it all. you are always gonna have haters and get...

    mpc2xl,4k,2500,1k,5k : 50% = straight 16ths ya'll ever see this video? @ 1:07 for me usually snares are always quantized. kicks, for me anyways, sometimes, but usually always ending up on the 1's anyways. then the hats for me get a little of my own shuffle. but in the end it all depends...

    Flipping Formula

    Anything that gives me "that feeling", that evokes emotion. Of course i love those intros or instrument breaks with no drums, it makes chopping easier. but if it has drums, I'll try to make it work if i really like the sample. For me, im usually level 2. I'm chopping stuff, but am not...

    definately get the jjos if you can afford it. there is also a free version. the free has less features, and was before some advanced enhancements. You can try all the versions for free (just cant save) and if you dont like it, you can go back to akai os. if you like it, you can buy it...

    MPC 2500 slow os no updates?

    They need to make an mpc version of their synthstation 49. basically an mpd 32 like pad controller where you can dock an iphone or ipad with an akai mpc app. But it has to be real mpc like and take it to the next level, keeping that mpc workflow but adding all the advantages of touch screen...

    MPC 2500 slow os no updates?

    gotta get that jjos2xl especially for chopping. Its got NDC chop. Basically you set markers on the sample and just move them around then assign the sample + markers to the pads. Super fast nice. Although I love my mpc....got to admit maschine looking nice. I have a huge library of vinyl...
