    I dont know whats better

    For pete's sake... I'm sittin here saving up for a Trigger Finger and M-Audio drops this. No need for a TF with this thing. I rarely use more than 8 drum samples at a time (if I even use 8), so the Axiom would be perfect for me.

    interfaces:usb or pci?

    So you don't put the card right next to a video card, which is good practice anyways because the PCI slot closest to the AGP slot usually shares the AGP slot's IRQ. For what it's worth, my old all purpose rig was eqipped with an Oxygen GVX210...

    interfaces:usb or pci?

    Huh???!!! I've been recording audio with a PC for almost 10 years now and I have yet to experience any interference with any audio cards. I sold interfaces for a number of years and never had one complaint from my customers regarding interference/noise. Latency with FW and PCI interfaces is...

    New Software

    FL Studio is arguably the more extendable of all of them. It has the potential to be the more powerful of the group. By itself it's aiight, but when you start adding VSTi's/DXi's and fx, it grows into something far more powerful than Reason could ever hope to be. Spend some more time with FL...

    Studio Monitors

    Not below 200, just over it and, trust me on this, the extra $100 makes a big difference. Get a set of M-Audio StudiophileBX5a's for $299 or Behringer Truth B2030A's for $279. Both are excellent active monitors (they have amps built into them)...

    Mo'Phatt Sound Module in Fruity Loops?

    I'd say go for the M-Audio card if you think there might be a reason you'll have to go to ProTools in the near future.

    just got something new

    Shit like this is why I NEVER go to instrument shops anymore. The temptation to buy is just too strong and I'll always see that one "cool" piece of gear that I had wanted in my hardware days. I'll only go if there s real reason, like auditioning monitors or something. Last time I was at GC...

    Best Rack?

    honestly, you could look around for an old Novation BassStation Rack or Waldorf Pulse and call it a day. The bass station shouldn't set you back much, maybe a couple hundred, but the Waldorf may hit your pocket for 300-500 depending on the seller and condition of the unit. There's also the...

    turntable Needles & Sampling

    Get yourself a Stanton 500AL mkII and be done with it. YOu could get better sounding carts, but you're going to spend a lot more money.

    no more beats for me!!!

    I lost 3 months worth of samples and beats to the infamous Zip 100 "click of death". The zip drive was hooked up to an ASR-X. It can still happen. Hardware or software, it doesn't matter. Just keep plenty of backups of ya shit and you'll be aiight.

    What is your favorite software for chopping samples?

    SoundForge 6. I've been a SF user for 8 years now and don't see a real reason to switch to anything else.

    Audacity

    For a free (as in beer) multitrack audio/sequencer package, there's always Rosegarden (under Linux) and for just multitrack audio, there's Ardour (also for linux). http://www.rosegardenmusic.com/ http://ardour.org/ I dual-boot my DAW machine between windows and Linux. At some point, I'm...

    no more beats for me!!!

    Hopefully, you have a spare hard drive laying around. If you do, install the spare drive as the master and reconfigure your old drive as the slave drive. Grab your copy of Windows (XP or 2000 will do fine), install Windows onto the spare drive (MAKE ABSOLUTE CERTAIN YOU'RE INSTALLING IT ON THE...

    thinkin bout giving up.

    I gave up on hip hop production for about 8 years. I'm back into it now, though. I'm back mainly due to the death of Jay Dee and the recent success and noteriety of two of my old friends, Disco D and DJ Houseshoes. Somebody has to rep Tha D to the fullest now that John Doe is gone. I'm like...
