    What's the hands down #1 sampler?

    No sampler stands up to the SP as far as thickness and volume IMO. However, if you got the heart and soul, you can come strong with any sampler. The gear is a very small part of the equation. It's the person using the gear that determines the strength of the song. You got the SP and the MP...

    Ripping from tape in stereo?

    That's odd. I think one of your settings on your PC, it's taking the stereo signal and converting it to mono. Do you have another music software program you can record it into?

    Ripping from tape in stereo?

    Fuck yeah for cassettes, good shit. Just get a y adapter from headphones to rca, plug it directly into your soundcard. In the recording options of sound forge, there is probably an option to generate a mono or stereo file, make sure you choose stereo. EZ

    Chuck D talkin' bout hiphop production

    honestly bro, you can't flip a sample and not have been influenced by PE. The Bomb Squad were 100% original in their style and sound. Sometimes they would be playing a record they'd want to sample, decide it wasn't crackly enough, take the record off the turntable, put it on the floor, put...

    Chuck D talkin' bout hiphop production

    Understood, realize I'm soundin a bit preachy. I gotta say that as a DJ, It was always difficult to play PE and keep people on the dance floor. Only record they had that worked well was "can't do nuttin for ya man". But as a listener, I do indeed think they are amazing (and soulful too)...

    Chuck D talkin' bout hiphop production

    totally entitled to your taste, but not liking PE and being a hip hop producer is similar to being a rock guitarist and not liking Jimmy Page. Just kind of strange IMO...

    Great post. Meant to big up whoever posted this up last month (Stress?) but never got around to it. Seeing it in video form really made it resonate. One note, it seems they pushed Kanye back to the second verse, on the audio link from last month, I think he was the first mc to spit. Either...

    Technics turntable to Behringer mixer to M-Audio Audiophile 2496

    Haze is right, you need to ground the turntable. Buy a cheap DJ mixer, 30 - 50 bucks, problem solved. Connect the ttbl to the djmixer, djmixer to your regular mixer.
