My Mission - To record a modern album that is the opposite of hard hitting drums and kicks but instrumentals that are orchestrated.
I want everything to sound realistic and live like in - Something from Nothing: The Art of Rap Trailer - YouTube at 0:55 after the helicopter goes away.
Needs -
New Monitors or way to listen ( 5.1?)
Super Nice Orchestra Sounds I will not settle for less
Super Nice Jazz Sounds
Quality Funk Sounds
Ability to tweak the sounds easily and EQ them so they can fit in the mix
Workflow - I want an easy to use system for changing and selecting sounds
Rewire - I want to rewire my kong drums into a DAW and use real drum sounds for most my tracks
So what do you recommend?
Note - I prefer playing on beat but I'm willing to work with midi if that is the system you recommend
Current Equipment -
Reason 5.0
Cubase 5
AKG D880 Mic
beheringer eurotrack mx602a
roland micro monitor ma-8
oxygen 61
i5 2600k with 8gb of 1866mhz memory with 500gb harddrive and setup to overclock
default soundcard on gigabyte mobo
alesis qs8.1 - needs repair
an edirol midi port
m-audio Fast track
I record everything in reason atm.
Thanks,
Fungames
