Well... go tell them you spent 2wice that so that they aim better before they shoot. :roll: :wink: Why are you worried about what other people do with their gear? That's the beauty of individuality man. Live and let live. Next thing you know, you're gonna be upset that people get different hairstyles or somethin'. Not everyone wants 'regular' shyt. You have your opinions and that's great! But don't get bent because you don't like someone else's style playa!

Gettin' shot cuz you made ya shiit look hot.........................sounds like you live in haterville USA homie. Now as far as the 70% statement you probably right to an extend. But if you really making hot shiit homie and are a real producer, then you would be selling some beats, songs, tracks, etc. then $120 wouldn't even be a thought process. This is a hobbie for me, so i got no fire right now, Ijust spend money making my equipment look pretty. Music is like my girl, and i gotta keep her lookin' tight!!!!

Next i'm gonna cut the side panels out and put neon lights like they do on computers! CRAZY!

now if you a rich white kid then this dosent effect you, obviously. but no one that really is takein this proffesionaly would take it logical to purchase thease items. ITS A JOKE lol im sorry BUT COME ON BLUE SCREEN SERIOUSLY man im just so amazed i think it still has to sink in for some people , ok if your a hobbiest and your not tryin to reach quality of pros then sure (still wouldnt do it)

and aknoc beats dosent matter if your sellin tracks and getin cash ,a Real producers got there through stickin through principles settin there priority straight, amongst with tallent ofcourse but real producer principle would be to save that money towards improvin his studio unless your really livin it big through producin. which means ither you made it big or your still on the way and NO LOGICAL producer still on the way to big time workin his ass of would be like ok maybe now i should upgrade to ablue screen even! IF THEY CAN afford it .. know what i mean im just sayin the time il be thinkin about blue screens and black pads is AFTER i got everything eles down not before

i wasn't aware that there were "rules" regarding building a studio. if someone wants to improve their gear cosmetically, then live and let live.

what you are sayin is that customising a pice of gear instead of saving the money to buy a new piece of gear is somewhat taking away their proffessionalism - you ain't gotta fukin clue.

many of us here who are customizin their gear do it because it makes their mpcs individual, gives it an identity, so they can feel it is genulinley theirs. i don't know about anybody else, but since i got my 1k white, i enjoy using my mpc even more because i'm humbled by the fact that its unique and its mine, therefore my work on it has improved, due to the time and dedication i'm puttin into it.

not to mention the fact many people doin this have spent 10's of thousands of dollars on their studios and maybe some feel they don't need anymore gear, they are happy with what they have got - they want to spend whatever money they have making their gear look better, i think its cool as fuk.

your on a high horse man, i think it's time you stepped off it...

I'm not a rich white kid, lol, i just thingk the black on black looks hot! $40 isn't going to kill me. I spend more on coffe and snakcs at work weekly. I just figure if i'm gonna look at this shiit for hours and hours then i'm gonna make it appealing to my eyes. Can i live without it?..............of course. But if i can do it, then fk it, I will cuz I'll only live once. I live life like this too homie.............get what i want in a responsible manner so i won't have any regreeets when i'm old and lookin at my mpc like "damn this thing would look nice with black pads".................LMAO! jk.

Give me ya pay-pal i'll send u $40 for the pads (u probably save it for something else, lol)..........u gotta treat yaself too. No fun if you too serious about the shiit.

Don't take offense to any of this stuff we just having fun. It should be like tht.

Son you got issues. And do your homework...have you ever seen some of the custom MPC's, Mics, synths, Guitars, Drum kits, amp racks, and other gear "Real" artists have. You sound like you just cryin....live and let live homie it aint that serious. Next you gonna tell cats to only stick to the Akai preset sounds.... :roll:

LOL!!! :lol:

No really look.... J-Tawn, I think you are completely missing the point. Let's take people for example. Would you like to just roam the streets buckassNekidd and have everyone around you in their B-Day suits too? No you don't!!! You want to stand out of a crowd. You want people to notice you for the person you are right? And your clothes help you achieve that goal. Let's say you drove an Acura integra and so does a guy down the street. Same year model, same color the whole 9. You don't want to be JUST LIKE HIM do you? HELL NO you don't. You want your car to say "This is J-Tawn rollin'" so you throw the rims and exhaust on it to set it apart... to let people know that it's you in your car!!! Thats how it is with some of us here. I take my production pretty seriously. But I wan't people to know that I have style apart from everyone else. Therefore, I switch my gear to show... Hey... This is ME!!! Just chill a bit and customize something of yours. You'll feel good knowing that 'yeah,you might have an MPC1000 but it ain't like mine!'Ya Herd? Holla!
