    Which MPC is the best in the series?

    That analogues devices DAC makes the difference from EMU and Akai. Best mpc setup is one with a good sampler, in that case a mpc2k in combo with a S3000 would be sounding like the mpc3k, same for the mpc2k with the s950. The mpc60 with the upgrade would also equal the S3000 ( later upgrade was...

    Sampling MP3's

    I'd rather sample from cd audio instead of mp3, in some occasions you can tell the file has been sliced into samples, even on 128K. Sometimes you have no choice since I can only find the material online, unfortunatly. But eventualy, I dont think it would matter when it comes to underground hiphop.

    Chat room

    I dont see the problem with having a chat box, except when its heavily visited by everybody on the site. But then again, it doesn't get that crowded here when looking how many visitors are online when logging in here.

    Why...

    Good one!, My beats are all free, @ least, those you can download. Customized beats are different though, but then again, if its money I want I wouldnt be looking here for it. Just to show some negativity on free beats, if there was an artist, that would make beats that appeal a lot of mc's...

    PC Recording Problems...

    Hmm, you cant make a mono signal stereo. Your voice is mono when recorded. Simply pan the signal back to center, not left or right.

    GOD 101: Getting Signed to a Major Label

    One thing you can be certain about in this industry and thats history repeating itself. The charts always go back into era's, reviving a past situation, a hype, that fueled industry 's management to push through a music genre that deliveres most exploitation at that time, nothing innovative or...

    GOD 101: Getting Signed to a Major Label

    word, real skills know better, they're just not supporting it up to a credible level, cuz most peeps are way to wack compared to " underground " however you like to define underground. We know all that already, but there obviously some people deciding that it's not gonna sell but really who are...

    GOD 101: Getting Signed to a Major Label

    I don't think producers/beatcreators have to worry about this, eventualy I think the producer is better off in such a situation or in his role within the industry. I also think that the duration of a good producer oppossed to a good mc, has more value since it is not a fashionable item itself (...

    Hip Hop BPM: Beats Per Minute for DJ's

    I'll have a serious excessive laugh @ the dj when it happens on the D&B tip ( and im mostly backstage hehe ), I have never seen it in a hiphop exhibition, that would be absurd.

    keyboard beats easier than sampling

    Not to define myself as non-sampling moron, I like raping up good material into a mutation of " respectable recordings ". In that I mean, by not just cutting out the right loop 'N sync'ing it , but by completly deforming it's original content as good as possible. If I go back in time again...

    bass!!!

    SE ATC-1 best hiphop bass synth around, it's mono and analogue. Other bassstuff are real vintage synths, preferably monosynths, dual oscillated. Sampled bassed are a big no no to me, same like 808kit samples, they never can and will sound the same. To much chaos theory inside a retro device...

    Which MPC is the best in the series?

    It's a tight sequencer, they all are. But price/usability wise, I'd say the 1k is great n small, credible enough for us all. Too bad it doesn't runn on batteries.

    Production techiques post here

    Consider every sound you use of having an envelope ( ADSR ), work on those envelopes to alter the dynamic amplitude of a sound, wether it's a sample, an analogue sound or a preset from a rompler. Record every sound/instrument as loud as possible and keep in mind that...
