    Hardware vs. Software

    for sure, at some point you just have to get to work and create something! But yea for someone just starting out I would 100% agree, grab a mac, Reason/Record/Recycle, Maschine and a nice keyboard controller and buy a few nice refills and you could make anything.

    Hardware vs. Software

    oh yea, its all good. And I think we have totally different production needs, but check out maschine you would love it. Do you not have a production computer at all?

    Its all good man! But no hardware could EVER do what VSL can do.

    Hardware vs. Software

    Although those products are nice, they don't come close to replacing Logic or Reason. Pro tools still has 95% market share and no one is changing. Not even close to what Reason can do, where is your modular synth? What about amp modeling etc. I think you just need to come to my spot and I...

    Hardware vs. Software

    I am talking about for production, lets replace Reason with hardware for example. You will need 3+ synths and MPC a few mixers, a bunch of outboard gear a few samplers and then a hardware recorder. What a mess! on a second note WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU USE A HARDWARE DAW? Are you serious? wow...

    With Maschine the feel is all there. And honestly I cant even imagine an all hardware setup it would be so slow and I would lose so many songs just because I didnt write everything down, ugh.

    Hardware vs. Software

    I have been software only since like 99-2000 so yea I am not coming back. It took me another 6 years to finally sell my MPC, but using hardware is SO freakin slow I think it would drive me crazy to go back. And I don't know of ANY hardware units that can do what VSL or Native Instruments can do.

    Hardware vs. Software

    You can make fantastic top 40 tracks in programs like Reason/FL I think you will still need a keyboard controller or something of that nature so you are still using hardware. It seems like solutions like Maschine where it is a hardware software combo are going to be the future. But no I would...

    Maschine, ok ya

    NO! Dont go academic on this one as you are not eligible for upgrades and long term it will actually cost you more!

    Protools/logic/mac

    I love Logic, but since Propellerheads Record came out I mix most of my own stuff in that. So I don't fire up Logic all that often these days. If you are a hard core Reason user take a look at Record. Then you wont need to use Rewire or anything, its a fantastic solution.

    Protools/logic/mac

    All the DAW's do a great job and are fairly unlimited from a power perspective. Cubase is not used much in recording studios so it won't help you get a job, but I think both Cubase and Nuendo and very cool programs so if you just make music for yourself or send stems to be mixed elsewhere it...

    Protools/logic/mac

    For YEARS Pro tools sucked on PC and was just not a viable option. Also PC's sucked in general for audio so most studios went the mac route and never looked back. I have no issues with PC's per se but I would say that macs are still built a bit better for audio/video. Second Pro tools is a more...

    MPC 2500 slow os no updates?

    guys I totality get the connection to the MPC, it is SO much fun to use. But the writing is on the wall, I think the MPC's grip on hip-hop production is about at its end. Time to move up to Maschine!
