Re: samples vs. vst's / software instruments in production?
I typically mangle the hell out of resampled synths... so its like, best of both worlds, if that makes sense?

Re: samples vs. vst's / software instruments in production?
then you'd still be sampling it, not synthesizing it.wub wrote:aeser wrote:a breakbeat by definition is a live drum recording usually from a record which is sampled and chopped and or looped. you can make beats with synths but you cannot create breakbeats.JBE wrote:That's not true. You can synthesize a breakbeat.aeser wrote:software samplers (which most people use) are VST's/software instruments. i think you mean samplers vs. synths.
given a choice between the 2 i'd choose samplers as you can use synth samples but can't synthesize a breakbeat.
What if you sampled and chopped or looped a live synth recording in the same way though?

Recently i've been starting to use samples more and more, been slowly building a sample library for a while. I do love synthesis tho.
