    NI Synths, only $99 today, incl. Reaktor!

    Well, Reaktor is a programmable instrument similar in some ways to a modular. The user community is HUGE, with lots of pre-built instruments. That said, if really geeky technical stuff is not your cup of tea, I'd have to go with Massive or FM8. Massive is the most diverse sounding of them all...

    Ro Spit “Renaissance State Of Mind (Feat. Monica Blaire)”

    Whats the right section to post this in?: New track hailing from Detroit/Burn Rubber crew, "Renaissance State of Mind". Ro spit at Burn Rubber had an idea to remake Jay's Empire State of Mind track and flip it on a Detroit tip. I hooked up the mix/reconstruction and next thing you know he's...

    Question about processing a sample

    Hi, I'm working on recreating a track for someone who wants to flip the track and do a different version of it. I'm working with the same sample as the original track did, but here's my problem. I'm trying to flip this sample right, and in the track we're recreating, the piano and...

    Reproducing a track

    Ok, I have a friend that wants to take a track and flip it to do kind of a parody. The original track uses a sample that people know, but I am just going to recreate it from the ground up. It's still obvious where the song came from. What kind of fee's or legalities are we looking at...

    Question about TAXI vs Other Services

    This year I finally started to just dip my toe in some of the placement services. I began with istandard because I've heard of some artists using it before and at $50 its not a huge commitment. So far I've gotten some plays and comments and it's just another tool for self promotion, ya know...

    Anyone contacted by "A&R Hits"?

    A&R Hits left me a message, but all the research I've done points to it maybe being a scam. Can anyone provide me any details? I heard they want a bunch of cash to develop a press kit. Meh.

    pitching a chopped sample in time

    My two main go-to programs are logic 8 and ableton live, though I'm trying to stay in live more and more as time goes on. I do also have recycle. I don't have kontakt right now, just the kontakt player. I've been using simpler and sampler in ableton, though they both seem kind of quirky compare...

    pitching a chopped sample in time

    I come from a background of mostly making my tunes form the ground up, without samples, but I'm definitely enjoying a change in my workflow adding samples to some of my tracks. One of my biggest issues, being somewhat new to sampling is 1. some autochop sample functions don't always chop on the...

    onehit's/combo sample hits

    Wondering if anyone knows of any good compilations of samples with orchestral hits, combo hits, one hits, stacked hits, I know there's a lot of adjacent samples out there. I'm wondering if anyone knows of any good sample packs, either free or commercial, that focus on these hits.

    Where to buy clothes online?

    DG constantly has huge warehouse clearance sales. Stuff online gets cheap, but if you go their warehouse everything is like $10, no shit. But after one of those sales they're waiting for new stock from everybody. Anyhow, I've used them for years (up until the past couple years we had NO good...

    What would you do....

    I grew up on Detroit techno here in the dirty D, and have given out so many techno beat cd's in my younger years I can't even keep count. I also ran two smaller labels that helped break several artists who are now working with some of the biggest labels in that game. The techno world is much...
