    Turntables (To Keep?)

    Dusty Finger comps

    i would never use a comp, because it seems like digging is the most fun part of beats, to me. but to each his own. i dont care if you buy comps and use them, if you flip them differently and chop them crazily. but if you are looping..... just think that almost everyone else who buys that comp...

    looking for sample

    "also same sample used by alchemist for big noyd's 'something for all that' ft prodigy." way better, IMO. alchemist has been my favorite producer for as long as ive been making beats, so i geuss that amkes me biased. geuss that also makes me somewhat new to the the game. (two years or so...)

    Why I love my MPC ...

    i love my 1k because i love working with that neon green screen in the dark... because i like working audially and not visually.... because with the pads i can actually feel what im playing more, and it feels good, and because it works so effectively in tandem with my tts and my midi keyboard.
