Sound module - Look for a good inepensive

u should get a mophatt with expansion boards. or u could get a MK-6 keyboard same as mophatt but with keys. roland handsonic, theres some kurzweil stuff but i dont know how good that is. or u could buy tons of vsts and get a midi controller. the options r endless dude. if u like analog, waldorf microwave xt may be good. or a rack virus c. like i said, too many possibilities.[/color]

yo D-rocka what exactly is a vst?  Also if one had a rack module, one needs a midi controller keyboard in order to generarte the sounds correct?  Thanx to anyone who can answer this.  Peace[/color]

Keyboards are a lot easier to play melodies, but you can trigger drumsound from your mpc. A vst is a little program that sits in the sequencer of a computer, and pretends it's a soundmodule. Some of them are pretty good. If you have a pc, i suggest downloading chainer, it's a program that runs vst intruments without a seqencer. http://www.xlutop.com/html/downloads.html
and some demo or free plug-ins, try;

badmanio,
Before making a suggestion, what type of sounds are you looking for? Most modules have particular strengths and weaknesses.[/color]

Thanx alot ieism, I gotta a mac so I cant check out the download, but no prob.  I plan on getting a keyboard anyway [motif probalby], plus producing on the computer is not my cup of tea.  Thanx again for explaining it.  Peace man, one love[/color]
