What you use to make beats is very important
The MPC 2500 sure forces you to focus on what your sample is actually doing. Where FL has everything and the kitchen sink in it. I can see likening a stripped down workflow.- thedreampolice

Man, Logic has probably the most bang for the buck of any DAW but at the end of the day it doesn’t really matter. They all get you to the same destination. And really you don’t have a beat, a melody, a lyric, anything in your head when you make stuff? That’s baffling to me.- thedreampolice

But certainly you have to imagine the sound you are going for in your mind first. Then you can translate it to your “soul” which isn’t very well defined in this particular discussion. My larger point is that your sound comes from you. Not your gear.- thedreampolice

Cubase is probably the most well rounded DAW on the market. I used it and Nuendo for years when I was doing freelance engineering. And before I got my Pro Tools certification. Once I had that I only worked in Pro tools. I have mixed a LOT of records on cubase. These days I only mix in Logic. I...- thedreampolice

9th switched to an mpc 2500 and used it for years before he got Maschine fyi. You can get about any sound out of any setup. Hardware doesn’t have some magic sound that computers don’t. Your sound should all come from your head. That being said even using the same exact sounds you will make...- thedreampolice

Sure, but I would absolutely say Kanye has both. Go watch videos of him in the studio, he is working his ass off. And his first six records were AMAZING.- thedreampolice

Yea I think the average movie is an hour/hour and a half. A bit more would be fine, but three hours is pretty rough.- thedreampolice

Im a pretty big fan of the 2500 with JJOS. Obviously computers are SO much more powerful. But with hardware it just forces you to focus on different aspects. I also love that Electron RYTM. Its pretty amazing. I have NOT wrapped my head around that Oktatrack yet, like at all.- thedreampolice

@2GooD Productions is right, you absolutely can get that same sound in software. But if you are looking for analog drums under $300 there aren't too many options. I would probably grab another Volca since you can get one for like $150. I have always liked Arturia stuff, so while I have never...- thedreampolice

So I posted a studio tour of my main studio here https://www.illmuzik.com/threads/my-and-or-the-drunk-pedestrians-studio-tour-full-gear-list-tons-of-photos.41283/ But I setup a smaller rig with NO computer in another room, to just have another workflow. Check it out. Nothing crazy and obviously...- thedreampolice
