    Did I mention I hate windows?

    damn thread had me fearing we'd have to whip out the "fanboy beating stick" hahaha. In the tech world if it works it works. Even as a private consultant for 12 years i still put a linux box in as a router for business networks.. makes good firewall/proxy/web server at the same time. but as far...

    when soliciting to individuals who are seeking pieces to use for media, what is the most prominent method of doing so? what are the advantages of doing this in different ways, and what ways might you recommend? also when preparing a contract for license material, what are the key points that you...

    Does wealth make you special?

    like previously stated, we are all equal. a person with great material wealth, tends to attract exactly that. more material wealth. most religions have writings about such things warning a person not to let that change them, as a lot of people take to disregard their simple basic needs, and go...

    indeed a very interesting idea. i currently just use the wah effect built into my motif rack es... which is fairly nice, but id love to hear the result of an actual wah pedal coupled with a nice aggressive tone.. lemme know how that whole thing fairs out for ya!

    I'm serious, but how should I start?

    yeah the firewire solo would be my ideal entry point audio interface(sells between $100-200), but by all means given that your on a mac, and if you could get the dough put together (bout $500), the apogee duet is absolutely beautiful for the clarity and head room it provides

    I'm serious, but how should I start?

    yeah like he said, theres no problem with the internal soundcard, but trying to use the line in will result in noticable noise from the headphone jack... just a quick pointer in the case that you plan on doing any sampling from external audio sources!

    I'm serious, but how should I start?

    yeah the fact that you got a macbook, means that for a fact YOU HAVE FIREWIRE. something such as m-audios firewire solo is a good start, giving you SPDIF in/out, headphone out, a mic input(w/ phantom power), 2in/2out 1/4" plugs, and a high gain input for guitar/bass. pretty solid starting point...

    Mapping MPD with FL

    i think the easiest way in fl might actually be to use "FPC".. taken that you're mapping samples. and takin your using the fpc you might want to hunt down a preset for the midi mapping given you want to spare yourself the chore.

    Ultrabeat Question

    well generally if samples cut short, youll want to adjust the "release" envelope until the desired length plays back. given that is the case in ultrabeat.. havent worked with it so i dont know if its got ASDR options or not.. but in the general sense of a sampler that usually is the case.

    Dr.dre's hp envy 15 beats limited edition laptop

    platform debates = wasted time, you can modify the linux kernel on a mac OS X distro to run on ANY HARDWARE! OR you could even emulate the flashrom to make it boot on almost any core2duo based system with an intel chipset. back on topic- the new laptop specs sounds like a pretty fair deal for...

    Improvising/Composing

    "learning" music theory is somewhat like amateurs making crack. add this, this and this... oh wait it didnt quite come back... too much cut whereas someone who got it in their head already will lay it down and bring it back in a minute based on pure instinct

    like many businesses do, rappers establish their names, and resort to what would be the musical equivalent of "sleazy business practices" my opinion anyway
