How much do you think you'd have to spend to get 10% of these breaks on wax?

I'm willing to sacrifice a bit of quality degradation to save a shit load of cash. :wink:

I think it will cost about 15 $ or EUR. Not really a "shit load of cash". Some of them are on the same LP so you have to buy 1 LP and get 2 or 3 breaks :)
I easily got 10% (probably more) of these and many many other breaks that arn't included and it costs me 50cent to 1 Euro for a record (sometimes less if I buy many records). There are breaks that you can't find for that price, thats true but go to the flea market and look for the prices of that steve miller - take the money and run break is or the come dancing by jeff becck (I bought it for 10cent) or buy that slyy record for a buck and get happy with the breaks.

Price really doesn't count here.

The flea markets here ie charity shops and bric-a-brac stores, in Norwich at least, don't have these type of records. There's a shit load of big band, country, early 90s dance and classical. Not necessarily bad for samples but breaks? No sirree!

I'd have to buy from a record store at like £5-£9 a record!

No quality loss here. Breaks were recorded from someones record collection to "CD" the quality that most of your samplers will have. FLAC is High Res Compression. This is the good ish....

But if I find myself digging into some V it has nothing to do with records :twisted:

i actually have the original CD of the ALL THE BREAKS compilation [i may be the only person that actually bought it... ever :lol: ]... but i can honestly say that the makers of the CD are lying when they claim that every single break was recorded directly from vinyl... a lot of them were simply converted from MP3 and it shows... for the price i'm not really complaining, but still... the description of the product is deceiving and dishonest in a lot of cases... but it's not like this ipod generation of kids would ever be able to tell or even care in the first place...

I've heard plenty of pops and crackles amidst this compilation.

you know you can download MP3 rips of vinyl off the internet, right? all i'm saying is that the guys that put this compilation together don't have all the original wax either... it's still not bad for the price though... but the product isn't everything they claim it to be on the label...

a lot of these were probably taken from those ultimate breaks & beats compilations on vinyl as well... and anyone that owns the original LP with the break vs those compilations will tell you that the UB&B are always of lesser quality than the originals...

just making an honest observation as someone that actually paid for this product... you guys are getting it for free, so what does it matter anyway, right? :mrgreen:
