    EPS-16+ question

    As Helix said tape over the hole works, but they are more succeptible to accidental erasure. Office supply stores around town my carry low quantities of the dsdd's. Also if you work at any business with older computers, apple/ mac especially, they will probably have a bunch around.

    SP1200 (or SP12) by itself

    The sp sequencer has great punch, you'd lose that in resampling. Plus aloowing the sounds to play in sequences from the sp imparts more of its signature sound. Also, does the eps allow you to change the swing as much as the sp? Don't think so.

    SP1200 (or SP12) by itself

    Backwards, the eps sequencer is controlling the beat already created in the sp. You can do it the other way but i find it easiest for me since i use the sp as my drummer, and eps as more melodic instruments.

    SP1200 (or SP12) by itself

    The way i work is to slave the sp1200 to the eps. I have the beat done first, usually, so by slaving the sp it becomes my metronome for the eps. Now invariably i will need to move a drum sound or sounds around to accent the bass which i use eps for 75 perecnt of the time, or for fills. Then...

    2 PC's or more.

    I just recently acquired another smaller pc from a relative only 40 gb hard drive, but has a cd burner i am setting it up in my lo fi room to record beat skeletons, and sounds that i want to bring into the hi fi room where my monitors are. I mix down and re sequence in there.

    SP1200 (or SP12) by itself

    I have done plenty of tracks with just an sp1200. Running two together just allows you to use more samples. However, you can use longer samples cuz the longest a sample can be is 2.5 seconds. He is chopping longer samplers up into 2.5 second increments so he can flip them. The sequencer and...

    Who Saw That Pacer/piston Fight?

    I think Steven Jackson may be the dumbest NBA player. Artest and Big Ben had legit beef.

    video producers / editors

    If you like Premiere 6.5 then you'll love Pro. They made A quantum leap. To me I rank the software as such Final Cut, Avid Express, Premiere Pro, However that is just preference. They can all do the same things. I teach alot of Premiere and Final cut because it is cheaper. Premiere is...

    video producers / editors

    Not anymore, with the advent of the Adobe CS bundle and Final Cut Pro, the playing field has been leveled. I teach Media Technology, which in Texas means audio and video production. We run both of the software that I just mentioned and we have one older media100 system. Avid express is nice...

    What kind of Instruments do you use?

    I play bass, and rhodes. The rhodes is a key by key sample of my brother's rhodes that I made on my eps-16+. I also scratch on every track I make.

    Neo nazi next door

    After marinating on the incedent for three days, I am disturbed by the loser's ignorance, but he has become nothing more than a punchline for me. He goes by the name little gene, and I have been making "little gene jokes" all weekend. I bet he will be scared to show his face now that he sees...

    Whites And Hip Hop by Rokbotom

    I thought the article was weak. The author hardly even made a point. He obviously did a ton of research, shit he couldn't even spell 3rd Bass. Also, the Beasties did not release a rock record until Some Old Bullshit, a retrospective, or Aglio y Olio. Paul's Boutique, Check your head, and Ill...

    Who doesn't agree that SEINFELD is the best sitcom ever?

    For all time sitcoms, my order is Cosby show (serious and funny), I love Lucy (dated today, but the measuring stick), Seinfeld (creatively hilarious), All in the Family (funny and socially relevant) Sorry, Simpsons isn't a sitcaom, genius, but not a sitcom. I personally thought Fresh...

    Let's Talk Nas For A Minute

    For me, Illmatic is my favorite hip hop album of all time. So rank it first, stillmatic second, and it was written third. That firm shit was beginning, and it was wack. AZ is nice though.

    How many here own a piece?

    Deuce's story and the fact that I have a wife and son to protect made me curious. My mind has been considering looking into protection for a minute, but on the other hand, I'm afraid because of my small son. In which scenario is he safer? I don't know if there is an answer.
