Well, this part of the forum does nark me a little.
I tend to frequent some pro production forums, and quite often I`ll find myself corrected by serious engineers on improvements I can make to my technique.
Generally my response is, bloody hell, that sounds great, I`ll give that a try, cheers.
However in this place, it`s not producers, it`s techno producers, so there`s that DJ ego that creeps in now and again, and people get shirty cos they feel damaged.

It`s not about one upmanship, it`s about sharing professional knowledge, that`s all.
