    Akai Sucks! Read on for an interesting tale.

    I have heard great stories about Ableton, and I even hit them up a few years ago for a problem I had with my MIDI controller functionality with the interface. They walked me through step by step, and not once did the dude sound like he was getting frustrated or pissed off when I was asking him...

    How many hardcore Ableton users?

    Sometimes I use Reason in Rewire slave mode with Ableton as my main sequencer, and it's a powerful configuration. Utilizing Reason's sounds with Ableton's ease of sequencing makes for an enjoyable session in the studio.

    Manual Digging vs. Internet Digging

    This is especially an issue when it comes to people that want to sample from international records. I'm in Korea right now and I went to a record store to find some dope sounds, but most of the 1960's and 1970's psychedelic rock records (which is the genre hip hop producers look for when...

    Many people don't know about this, but Grand Puba also flipped this sample for "Keep On." I personally like the "Brown Skin Lady" flip the most, but this is worth checking out:

    Are you using a Macbook Pro by any chance? When I tried using my MPD32 with Reason for my Macbook Pro, the program detected the midi controller, but there was no pulse. I found out it was because one of the USB ports were not "suitable" (terminology from the Akai rep) for the MPD32, which is...

    Wassup *tilts head upwards* to the Illmuzik community!

    What's going on everyone, I happened to stumble across the site while I was Googling "hip hop production forums," and I could safely say that this site seems to be the most organized / helpful when it comes to this particular craft. I just started out as a producer about a year ago, and wanted...
