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).

Definately Fl Studio, or a pair or technics ;)
Acid Pro
or
2 x 1210s & a DJM 600
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.
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:
OctaMED ;)
It's been a while though.
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.
whats that?!Quote:

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 :-)
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. . .Quote:

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.
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.Quote:

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...Quote:

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.Quote:

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.
