    Tempo changes in the middle of a sample

    sometimes it's just human error. I had a Roy Ayers sample I was working on many years ago and couldn't get it to work right for shit. The problem was that the band on a whole appeared to be following the timing of the drummer, and if the drummer slowed or sped up even slightly, the band...

    FL Reason

    the biggest plus is that you get access to VST's in FL Studio alongside Reason's synths.

    vsti's taxing my cpu

    So... Last night, right after submitting my response, I fired up Cubase and made a little electro-ish track using nothing but synth-type VSTi's (no samplers at all). AMD Athlon XP2000+ MSI K7 Master-S motherboard (Onboard U160 SCSI) 1GB Kingston RAM M-Audio Audiophile 192 I ran...

    vsti's taxing my cpu

    VSTi's run off CPU, unless they're samplers then they runn off both. Synth plugins like FM8 or Absynth are very floating point intensive which has everything to do with the FPU in your processor and nothing to do with RAM.

    New Lambo! WoW!

    There's a few cars from the 70's that grabbed my attention, most noteably the Maserati Merak, Lamborghini Silhouette, Ferrari Berlinetta Boxer, and DeTomaso Pantera as they all employed very similar, yet distinctive styling (The BMW M1 also fits into that category, as does the Silhouette based...

    New Lambo! WoW!

    hehe... not yet, but soon though. If I find the right car(s), by next summer. The flip side to that is that I wanted to design cars when I was younger, so I studied the cars of my era (70's and 80's) and the history of many marquees.

    New Lambo! WoW!

    Spec-wise, it's a monster, but it's still a Dodge. There's little prestige in owning a Dodge, no matter how fast it is. There's prestige, a heritage in owning Lamborghini, Ferrari, Lotus, Porsche, DeTomaso, Maserati, Jaguar, et-al. These brands have racing histories that American nameplates...

    New Lambo! WoW!

    I remember hearing Wyclef talk about a short conversation between himself and Jay Leno not long after Clef got his first McLaren. They were talking cars, and with Jay Leno having such a huge collection, Clef wanted to speak on that level since he's becoming a car collector. Went something...

    New Lambo! WoW!

    The Mclaren F1 had 3 seats when they came from the factory. The driver sits centrally and the two passengers are on either side of the driver, but back a bit. When the cars were certified for the U.S., McLaren was required to remove those seats. Wyclef merely restored the car to it's original...

    New Lambo! WoW!

    it pales next to my Veryon. as far as the design itself goes, it looks like it should be a sibling to the Gallardo, not a $1.4M car, more like a $140K car.

    Does anyone have a job that they like outside of music?

    multi-dicipline engineer. When the management needs an EE, I fill the role. When they need an ME, they look at me. Systems Engineer? Yup... been there, done that. Right now I'm a cross between a software engineer and RF engineer. Next month could be something else. It pays the bills... and I...

    Questions for the DJ'S here

    That's 'cause Final Scratch is notorious for dying during your set. Some of my buddies with bigger names as DJ's have plenty of horror stories to tell about Final Scratch.

    Questions for the DJ'S here

    I third that motion. before you jump out there like "I wanna DJ!!!", you need to get some fundamentals down first. Get a pair of 1200's (or cheaper direct drive turntables), a mixer, and some vinyl THEN step up to mp3 this and that. Before y'all jump on me about the cheaper direct drives...
