It was just a pole I wasn't trying to figure out which is better or whatever I just wanted to know what people prefer. Its just a poll. :roll:

I just started buying vinyl. The more vinyl I get the more I will have to use. I been making beats for almost 4 years. Only had my MPC for acouple of months. I download alot of stuff, but multisamples and sample cd's never download right. But I got a hell of alot of drums. Any tips on getting them sample cd's though?

keep searching ;) plenty of kicks & toms on wax

Layering toms with kicks can give your kicks more body (if necessary). I've heard toms layered with kicks in some of J dilla's beats.

pretty much all my melody samples come from records, but drums are mostly bought, bnginbeats etc, and lasers and sound effects
