BOOOLOOOOO @29:20 I thought the same thing during my Reason days until I went to a Reason Conference back in ‘08 or so     See More and DJ Toomp played ‘What You Know About That’ instrumental… that 💩was BANGIN! Everybody jaw dropped mane.    See Less

@dbeene36  15 hours ago

I have a question for you guys. I have a Roland Fantom 0. The keyboard is able to record direct to daw because of the built in interface. I also have a Tascam Model 24. Would it be better to     See More rect from the fantom to pc or from the Fantom into the Model 24? I’m looking for the same sound that a lot of people say they get when they record into a MPC, or at least close.    See Less

@princecynebaldEl3164  19 hours ago

Hybrid. Its the only way to go, lmao. If MPC ever gets that piano roll and arranger up to par with Logic Pro, then I might look at this differently. Currently, building in MPC and transfer     See More to Logic for arrangement is how I would do it. Bolo is not lying though about the sound itself coming from hardware. I got the cheap Presonus Eris 3.5 monitors and felt they sound dull and flat when monitoring from my laptop. I hooked another pair of them up to my MPC Key 61 and its like I had a whole different set of monitors. The sound was night and day, not even close.    See Less

I have a question for you guys. I have a Roland Fantom 0. The keyboard is able to record direct to daw because of the built in interface. I also have a Tascam Model 24. Would it be better to     See More rect from the fantom to pc or from the Fantom into the Model 24? I’m looking for the same sound that a lot of people say they get when they record into a MPC, or at least close.    See Less

Hybrid. Its the only way to go, lmao. If MPC ever gets that piano roll and arranger up to par with Logic Pro, then I might look at this differently. Currently, building in MPC and transfer     See More to Logic for arrangement is how I would do it. Bolo is not lying though about the sound itself coming from hardware. I got the cheap Presonus Eris 3.5 monitors and felt they sound dull and flat when monitoring from my laptop. I hooked another pair of them up to my MPC Key 61 and its like I had a whole different set of monitors. The sound was night and day, not even close.    See Less
