    Your favorite vsti(s)

    Not sure what is up with this Triangle II piece of shit... I downloaded it twice and installed it twice from URL below, and the bastard installs a few help files, midi, and presets.. with NO actual EXE, or VST?? http://www.rgcaudio.com/triangle_II.htm -NORTH

    NAMM: Reason 3.0 Masterclass

    I'm floored myself... I have been an addict since 1.0, and every single time a new release has come out, it has been better than XMAS. -NORTH

    What are the best Hip Hop Drum Kits?

    What about the Native Instruments progs? Anyone using Kontact, Battery, or any NI shit for modifying drum sound, and building kits? Please share your thoughts on what is best and why. -NORTH

    How to produce a bombass beat

    INSPIRADO If I can distill it down to one thing, I would have to say it all starts with getting INSPIRED by something... a melody in my head, a sample, a beat I just banged out... a bass line.. whatever... and then I build it up, deconstruct it, break it down, re-arrange it, mix it, blah blah...

    Gone 48bit / 96Khz

    Has anyone here gone in and replaced their drum kits, samples, etc.. with higher quality formats? Has your sound been catapulted into a new dimension of fidelity?? I believe a HUGE aspect of hip hop production is QUALITY samples, which a lot of us miss, IE: by sampling MP3s, etc... Where...

    What are the best Hip Hop Drum Kits?

    True dat... BUT no one is going to get a fat beat out of an old casio keyboard... without some serious sound design... and so my point being, it helps to have a nice stock of CORE snares and kicks to build kits from. This whole process for me, is about weeding out all the techno bullshit...

    What are the best Hip Hop Drum Kits?

    I'm making progress on breaking out singe hits (snares, kicks) from my collection of roughly 2000 hip hop instrumentals. If anyone is interested in sharing... I can put these on an FTP real quick... but I'd like some sharing going on here... we're talking .5 second hits... so no worries with...

    What are the best Hip Hop Drum Kits?

    Yea, ACID works fine... it has VST support, buses, editing power, layering, etc... it just seems overkill for sound designing single hits, but perhaps it is best. Of course, my copy of ACID4 just crashed on me after spending 15 minutes layering some snares, eqing, etc... those RAT BASTARDS...

    NnXT uses Nnxt.. isn't that cute? <bitch>Well... I've ruled out Wavelab's Audio Montage as an option, since the interface is the greatest piece of shit cock fuck lung I have ever seen in my life! How the fuck do you INSERT a mono or stereo track? RTFM? I did, and it is a piece of cunt scab...

    What are the best Hip Hop Drum Kits?

    Hey, what are you guys using to layer sounds? I've done a lot of this in ACID... but does Sound Forge or Wavelab allow you to layer sounds in it? I haven't seen this option.. and I'd hate to use ACID to layer simple hits... I'm trying to figure out this Audio Montage shit in WaveLab right...

    What are the best Hip Hop Drum Kits?

    Great points fellas. Thanks for that. It has already helped me hone in this vast array of single hits. I am pretty good at sound design, so building kits is something I will get into. Prolifix was talking about layering drum sounds... this can flatten your drum as well by creating a...

    I'm getting answers here... and should have dug harder first... https://www.illmuzik.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7980&highlight=drum+kit but if you got more ideas, throw them up!

    What are the best Hip Hop Drum Kits?

    (Not quite a digging topic, but I couldn't decide where else to post this) Over the past 10 years, I've been to just about every site on the web, download drum kits and have every vintage drum machine sampled, some great live acoustic drum kits, etc... but... more than half of it is...

    MPC EDitor

    How to Transfer Samples? In reading about MPC Editor, it sounds like the only way to get sounds onto the MPC is through a disk? That would suck. Can I not drag and drop samples and edits made with MPC Editor onto the hard drive on the MPC4000? -NORTH

    MPC4000 Users, OS 1.70 is out.

    Ok, too late... I bought a used MPC4000 for $1500... from what I can tell I got a killer deal on eBay (actually the best to date on ebay for a 4000), and the v1.7 OS makes the bitch as stable as she ever was. -NORTH

    MPC4000 Users, OS 1.70 is out.

    I'm thinking of buying an MPC4000... but I've read a ton of reviews which say it is a crashing piece of shit. Anyone want to suggest otherwise, or should I go for the 2000XL, which everyone says is much more stable? -NORTH
