Post your prouction setup and how much $ you spent on it

Post by KALALASMOKESALOT » Wed Jun 09, 2010 2:15 am

I have an old ass windows xp laptop and fruity loops, it cost me $0 because it is not mine lol, I'm trying to change this.

I want to get a better setup with a proper DAW, MIDI controller, keyboard maybe.. Trying to get an idea how much a proper setup will cost me. It'd also be cool if you have some tracks to show that you made with X setup so I can see what each slew of gear has potential for.

thanks

Its embarrassing that I have this much kit and nothing to show for it, so I'm not telling. Suffice it to say, "too much" and "too much".

i rarely use it anymore, i bought it in 2006 when i produced trance based music.
i mostly use it now just to practice sound design, and fuck around.
it has an awesome supersaw waveform that i have yet to see emulated in any software or another synth, so for that, it's great.
other synths you have to use a extremely fast lfo synced to the pulse width, but the jp, you just dial the super saw, set the detune and it sounds dope.
the filter is pretty decent also and has a nice warmth to it.
