**format wars** vinyl ? mp3 ? cd ? turntables ? ableton ?

[rhythmtech]

but its not the same when you cant frame it up and put it on your wall.

D

as much as im 100% digital these days.. ^^this statement is very very true and i hope that all my future releases will be available in both formats.

[Miromiric]

it is true for techno, which is kinda sad&dull music and to get any excitement from it, you have to hold it in your hands. it is not true when it comes to good music, that you just want to listen to.

[rhythmtech]

not at all.. i've had an indie album released back when i was in a band and im a lot happier having a physical copy of it as a reminder of what i've done.

yeh ill use ableton to throw midi to hardware but thats about it, im pretty unhappy about where ableton has taken djing and production in general, i cant appreciate a dj set played on ableton. its as good as an ipod...

I always find this sort of response funny. It's basically, "The new stuff sounds different than the old stuff!".

It's just another sound to get used to. Plus, stuff done in Ableton will sound as good as just about anything if done right. It just opens the door for people who could never afford all the different gear and software. I mean, you could use human-played instrument samples for everything and it would sound more organic than a real 909, no? People who produce the entire track using software intruments are the ones you're on about. I mean shiiit, producers of "real" music constantly slag electronic music using your same argument.

Plus, software production is ever evolving, and I'm confident that it will get to the point where differences vs. will be strictly imagined. It'lll be like the whole WAV vs. 320 rate MP3 argument that has never reached any real conclusion. The oldschoolers will argue that they can hear the difference, while almost no one really can.

the first dj robot arms are already in development.
in the near future we can play with 4 arms, just by using a brain sensor for extra control.

but by the time that happens
we'll all be plugging our heads directly into our sequencers anyway.
