SP-FORUMS

I have a snazzy bpm counter on my mixer I use, but the sp shows the BPM of your samples as well (assuming you're just looping it). If I'm looping something, I usually set the pattern tempo the same as the sample and mold everything else (drums, bass) around that. If I chop a sample I usually do the ...

I usually get an open bassline off a record, isolate the sample, lo fi filter it a couple times, and (depending on the situation) use some vinyl sim comp. I dont like compressing my bass a lot, though

Sweet stuff. Hows that 303 3000 combo treating you? If I could have any MPC it'd probably be a 3000

Not much a point in posting this after wax's but its finished so... http://www.zshare.net/audio/5020034989b08a1d/

nice deal. once you get used to your sp you wont even need more than 4 tracks. I like how compact it is, to

the things i gained from crate diggin.
knowledge of all kinds of music. good music bad music.
be able to find good records easier. even dollar records. basicly just knowledge, i dont regret spending so much time on it.

however im a hard core record junkie, not so much a collector, because if

I use the DX052. works just fine for sampling-$25 is a good deal

Smoke and Mirrors by RJD2 never gets old for me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPuv6QE28yc Still probably the best instrumental hip hop ive ever heard (some donuts tracks are one its level, though, but they're so different in style I don't feel like its fair to compare them)

The 404 could definitely do that...In fact, I'd say it'd easily make sounds like that with its effects. You should look into getting something else to record into, though, whether it be hardware or software

not one of my best but i got some cool drum sounds with the break http://www.zshare.net/audio/202351633acce878/

it isnt fuckin with antees, though.

I've gotten some really cool kicks with the voice transformer. Radio tuning can produce some nice snare sounds, to

I love blueprint-admittedly mainly because hes from where i was born and raised, but his his soul position stuff with RJD2(also from columbus) is some seriously overlooked stuff

SP 404
Tascam DP02CF
Numark 1650 ( I don't DJ so this works well enough for grabbing samples/listening to records)
...thats it

madlib is definitely one of my favorite producers. Not too many artists doing stuff strictly with samples nowadays
