Finalising a song with the MPC? inside or outside?

Making tracks in your MPC, and after.......

Hello Forum Fellow's,

I'm very curious how you guy's work...

For instance how many people keep their entire track in their MPC, and bounce it to a stereo WAV? and put some mastering on it (izotope in a DAW?)
Or how many people bounce their parts fromout the MP and finish / build their song in ...let's say Ableton or Pro Tools? the modern day music nowadays is so loud and mostlly because they work in Fruity, Ableton etcetc...

thanks anyway
Cheers

How many? Alot, do both, it's preference.

Thats not why. Look up "loudness wars".

I do everything in the box. But I send it out through analog cables for that out the box richness, to my CD recorder. I believe in EQing and fattening the signal when sampling and getting it just hot enough. I like to flip them pancakes hot.

I don't think its the tools thats building shitty houses, its the engineers behind them. They master with earbuds nowadays :x

Do you use lives compressors and eq's or 3rd party ?



been using the ones that come with live suite... but i'm no mixing guru... still learning the basics when it comes to mastering/EQing. i'm developing that skill as needed though...
