    New Setup Ideas?...

    Get mpc1k and convert your samples to 12bit in your favorite wav editor. Done! What do you mean by control by mpc60? Another sampler, module, drummodule, va ?

    Sampling From Cd

    Yes they're magic! Do not insult my fetish! A shitty sample is a shitty sample, either you like it shitty and screw it up till it suits ( but expect to "finetune" it to the orginal intent ) or you think the sounds suck and you delete it. You gotta be selective, you cant keep crap forever.

    Views on Real To Real recording.........

    For live recording it's good, especialy on drums. but for studio I dunno. Im really a electronica fanatic so never seen any purpose for it. You british folk get drunk to quick hehehe. Could be worse though, I smoke all day so at times I confuse the shit out of peeps here.

    transit or transient ? hehe Transient is level-independent shape of the dynamic response of a sound. Like a transient designer allows you to emphasise or smooth the attack and extend or shorten the sustain of a signal. Saturation is how a signal harmonicly distorts when it reaches the noisefloor.

    Are you talking software or hardware, cuz digital clipping aint really that nice unless you have saturation fx.

    How do you program your dynamics?

    You can just program first and balance out everything perfectly when you go in the for the mixdown. This is a kinda the conservative approach since a pc actualy provides the flexibility of mastering/balancing in the process of producing a track, but it all depends to a person's setup. In your...

    Views on Real To Real recording.........

    There is a right answer, dont work a bad recording but painstakingly re-record and let the artist do it over...again. Dont comprise or try to drasticly enhance a bad recording, if it has potential it deserves a good recording. After the album is done you fire the engineer for being noob hehe.

    What is the best production software???

    Hardware is better but expensive. Software is convenience on budget. Hardware is intuitive, you're handling is compulsivly and hands on. For what monitoring concerns it's much directer in applying and hearing changes, altering sound is dynamic like addicting gameplay. I also like the idea of...

    ADAT's

    The VR has ADAT connection only so there no way to hook up them 8 out from your mpc, meaning you'd need something like a forstex VC8 which for A/D conversion ( simply put, 1/8 rca to adat I/O ). They come in cheap on second market these days are perfect for this. You need a scsi device for...

    HIP HOP! what is it to you?

    How can u state that neither hiphpop is objective, hiphop is not a US concensus, but a global one. For the industrial part it's definitly not objective, it's all about nothing, simlpe n easy music ( oke not always but 99% of the time its overrated/hyped) and millions of customers buy into that...

    ADAT's

    Well, it not mostly the case but in all you do understand that a lot of ADAT products are just 44 or 48 kHz. There are new product that use the ADAT protocol to use higher resolutions. Some Ebay thingies I quickly found, price go cheap down the list. Fostex FD-8 Multitrack Hard Disk...

    ADAT's

    Hmmm, there are various ways to use this machine, the issue is really on what you intend to use. For instance, on a console with 24+ channels you'll often have the option to send audio to a bus/group. You'll at least find a 4 to 8, it varies. What you can do then is route all 8 out from the mpc+...
