Not in a way that needs to be sat down an analised while listening to a track. Programming a synth and sequencer is experimentation. I'm not slagging on any techno. But, I find the chinstroker stuff around the music to be irrelevant. If I'm not feeling it, that's it. Whereas, there's a lot of non-programmed music that takes significant practice which I also don't feel, but can respect the chinstroker stuff around it. Just about anyone here could go to school and learn production techniques that they can recreate on a machine with a little trial and error fairly quick. But, most people here would not be able to go to school and come out some fantastically gifted jazz fusion guitarist or classical violinist.Originally Posted by dirty_bass
