The xv 3080 is a good module I had it and it has a lot of tough sounds in it at the time I was using the asr-x along with the roloand xv 3080 but the midi on the asr-x is scwred up so I took it back to sam ash and got an mpc2000xl......
2000xl is about 1200$ or less now ..that would be witout the 8 output expansion...you can gou on ebay and get it for less....Not too many people hear diss computer beats because a lot of the guys here using software has a lot of hot shit
I don't know but More than likely it's a sample...I really haven't heard anything that wasn't a sample from rza....Or wu-tangs other producer Mathamatics
That's what happend last time Rakim did an album...The 18th letter was like him rapping over anything and That's one of the reason that album didn't do too well
Thanks fade.....I was going to try to find another one but I have to get ready for work.....There you go Mad scientist....The higher upper of illmuzik just hit you off
Radio is just as corrupt as the music industry........I know for a fact the Def Jam has their hands in hot97 here in new york and others pay big money to get their artist spins
I was looking through web sites and found this one that had tips and tricks for the mpc2000&2000xl....It's ok but if anyone has one and wants to know something it might be helpful

That D block song 2 gunz up has to be the best song out showing lyrical skill this year......Out of 4 verses none of them were wack or near wack.......
