    dopest "mpc style" drum software right here

    The groups that program and sell software are typically in a better position to gamble on success of a product than a ground-level artist. -Some developers offer non-commercial use for free, but charge for commercial use. This means that the larger studios aren't getting a free ride, and uses...

    Acapella blog

    These guys don't need it Man, I'm so tired of remixing millionaires! I wish I could find some legit, cleanly recorded and unprocessed, underground vocal tracks. Oh, tracks that aren't dudes singing about things they can't afford... lol. I guess I'm really asking alot! hehe

    iZotope Spectron

    This is one of my all-time favorite plugins, I use it very lightly, but frequently (esp on vocals), seems like alot of ppl use it as a prominent effect for sound design. Anybody else using this little blue powerhouse? How do you use it? http://www.izotope.com/products/audio/spectron/

    What else do i need to have a good home recording set-up?

    Protools "It is probably the only tool that you MUST know" Actually, what you really need to know is how to import and export your projects into fixed length raw tracks that can be laid out and mixed on any big console system regardless of software. Protools pretends it has a monopoly on...

    new monitors...sound help

    Audio interface required You need an ASIO compliant zero latency Audio IO to get proper playback. Also, I suspect the outboard EQ has no place in that signal chain.

    iTunes and sample clearance advice

    You can still sell uncleared tracks for production you just have to stipulate to the buyer that clearance is their responsibility if they want to use it commercially. They aren't buying your track, they are paying for your arrangment basically. Personally, I don't use samples except as seed...

    Mapping MPD with FL

    Mpd There's an MPD template for FL that has them premapped, you just load the samples and adjust the behavior for that particular pad. It's fing stellar. I think it's in the templates folder, you can rename it as the default template too, so it always loads up that configuration.

    DIGI 001 hum and static

    Suggestion If you get it cleaned out and it works again, buy a patchbay, they are designed to take wear-load off of the main's jackplate. Saves you money in the long run. Don't use TT, use TRS, TinyTelephone was only devised because patchbays used to have like 40 connections going on, there's...

    All Digidesign Fans, I have some bad news...

    Avid is floundering to retain commercial acceptance, but FinalCutPro has already rendered them dinosaurs. Digidesign is doing the same, has been resting on it's status and focussing on marketing rather than pursuing innovation and improving products. This money grab is pretty shameful and has...

    Bass

    mapping "(unless there is some way of taking one bass note from a sample and spreading it chromatically over all the keys)" Use a wave editor to pull the bassnote, save that file, then map it to the keys.

    format for drums

    resampling When you resample to higher resolution you create headroom, an excellent scenario when combining submixes. Resampling can help you retain meaningful sound data for later stages of production.

    Compression/Limiting

    Volume wars acomplish about as much as territory wars. Blame it on 1980's radio, which is dead, so we can stop sacrificing dynamics for perceived volume whenever we are ready to start listening. -The key to proper compression is pre-weighting your uncompressed mix and then applying multi-pass...
