Weapon of choice?

[Internal Error Records]

If you had a piece of gear or program that you would want to be considered an authority on. What would it be?

Mine would be the MPC-2000xl. (im not saying im the best at it, but i love it).

[Barely Human]

Definately Fl Studio, or a pair or technics ;)

[slavestudios]

Acid Pro

or


2 x 1210s & a DJM 600

[acidsaturation]

Probably the MC-303... It's quite limited as we all know but for a while it was my only sequencer so I had to learn to push it to the limit.

[slavestudios]

nowt wrong wit MC303s...


all the big boys look down their nose at them, but i beem using them live for years & they aint never let me down...


unlike some laptop sets ive (almost) heard :lol:

[TechMouse]

OctaMED ;)

It's been a while though.

[Rydel]

I want to know EVERYTHING there is to know about logic, don't see that happening soon tho :cry:

I can get pretty damn dirty on my Monomachine :)

Rob Acid though... now he's probably the authority on it.

doh. yes i forgot i knew that one. it looks hot.

im all about the industry standards. it would take the jaws of life to pull me away from my MPC :-)

[xfive]

heheh

Yeah... its not so huge in the beats area though... so it would actually complement the MPC quite well ;)

The synth engines are sick

i been wondering about a table top synth to get. the core of my studio is an mpc-2000xl and an s-2000. no real synths. . .

maybe a good topic would be, whats the best table top synth for under $400?

[BRADLEE]

I guess my weapon of choice is FL studio, Logic and Acid pro as far as production is concerned. I used to do a live PA though with all 4 Korg Elektribes though. That always worked out pretty well for me.

[Evil G]

nord modular.

i have by no means mastered it. i'm not sure that's even possible, given the nearly infinite possibilities it presents.

I'd definetly say a Nord Micro Modular or a used Evolver.

Same here.

The thing is too flexible to really master but everytime I sit down for a patch making session I always seem to come up with some inspiring sounds.

The trick is to assign shit to the front panel knobs and "play" the modular :D

Yep... it's still the backbone of mine too...

my buddy has a nord micromodular. i love the theory behind it but i just cant make it sound good. (and i am an experienced vst designer)

plus the nord micromodular computer program doesnt seem windows xp compatable.

I hear ya. I had a micromodular for nearly 2 years before I got the modular rack and only really used it as an audio processor (still do). Only after playing with the full modular rack for a few weeks I realised how completely rad it was. I've patched it up with proper analogue filters on the extra outs and delay + reverb for all outputs and now it's a proper modular hybrid :D. Something so simple can really change the useability of this box because it has a pretty dry sound on its own.

And you have to tweak the knobs. Thats when magic happens. Set your patches up with all the controls a regular synth has, divided into seperate sections and label the front panel. But be sure to leave a bunch of knobs for non standard parametres and morph groups for those whacked out tweaks.

[Craig McW]

I guess you could say my weapon is Reason. I seem to have nutted out a few things that answer people's problem with the sound it generates, and am really getting down n dirty with it all.

Cubase is great and I love using it, but feel like a bit of an idiot with it as what I know is limited. I seem to use it as a mixer more than sequencer and add oomph to edits/breakdwowns etc with it...

anyhoo.
