The more I dive deeper into the sampling along with the sequencer the more I learn from the experts advice. Along of the guys are dropping gems but with limited knowledge at the time we might not quite get it. But the more experience you become the more sense it makes. The Sampling Book by Steve De Furia makes sense. The interviews by Alchemist, Kanye, DJ Scratch, and others make sense once we gain understanding. Even the Scratch Acadamy will click into place. The 4k can do alot of things once you gain a deep understanding. :D


Limited knowledge and experience means limitied capablities of the users.


The more experience you become the more you are able to do what you want. :idea:

And that applies to ALL equpment/Software how do you expect to get better (all round) if you don't even know how to use your tools to there full potential...Im not judging anyone but Im sure alot of people have sold/traded gear because of there lack of knowledge/want of knowledge to learn it inside and out (including technical BS) you need to know that ish regardless of your talent and creativity.

Im still a rookie 2 to the producing game so I have ALOT to learn.I don't lack in the creative/talent department but Im not going to be the best I can be without learning about the technicalities.Honestly I wish they didn't exist I just want to make music I really don't want to learn compression,EQ,mixing,mastering,delay,chorus,etc BUT I must if I want to be successfull.

peace.
