You tell me, you must be the 40-post expert. What I have suits my needs, hate if you want this shiz aint a job for me its a love, and I'm sure not out for your approval. I'm not facing off with cats who make beats for a living (or are trying too), so why the hell would I need gear to compete with that?

Stop being a diva and accept rather than hate. it will take you farther in life.

Turntable! Hah....

Back in my day we sampled on wax cylinders. We had to use a clay urn for the kick drum and a semi-conscious rattle snake for the hats.

I just jammed two small weasels into the outputs of my MPC - low frequencies make them growl, high frequencies make them squeak. Better frequency response than that piece of shit Logitech thing I was rockin anyway.

Try ferrets....better mid range :lol:


Interesting! I was rocking some voles for a while but they just didn't cut it for bass. I'm now thinking of bi-wiring some badgers for the lows, an old mattress I found in my shed for the mids and bob hope's head for the top end. :wink:

Now if that aint some knowledge I dunno what is.

well you need speakers that can cover a good spectrum (40hz to 18,000hx for example) and at a good level.. and after that it's getting to know those speakers. once you are used to them and know how to tune music using those... it is possible in theory to mix music on those.

but getting a second set of well trained neutral ears doesn't always hurt.

Kinda late responding to this, I meant no harm just meant You could probably do better! Craigslist is a great place to find good speakers for low $$
