yeah, so what kind of equipment do all you producers use? can you really survive with just Frooty Loops? I know 9th Wonder still uses it, ive seen him use it, but can you really make quality beats and do everything you need to do as a producer using Frooty Loops? and, how do you get the voice-only tracks to make ur own mixes n shit? i think i wanna get into producing....

Thanks

this should be in a different section, but I'll throw some answers out. Voice only mixes come from combining a 'accapella' form one song with a beat from another. I just hit limwire and download 'accapella's'. I've said it a million times- it don't matter what equipment you have/use, its how you use it. 9th wonder is my fav example. My newest beat is made 100% on Fruity Loops, and it came out ok. (peep sig) But in the studio I use a Triton LE, a Roland Fantom Synth (my fav of a few of them), Cubase to make the beats in, Acid Pro to change tempo, & Soundforge to cut up samples. word.

^^ Pretty much what he said. Its not the equipment, it's how you use it. Fruity Loops works perfectly fine for me.

worrd, i mean i'd love to produce in the studio, but right now i dont have the funds or access to that kind of equipment, so i was just making sure it was possible and i wouldnt be wasting my time with Frooty Loops trying to be a serious producer...

and yeah, 9th Wonder is awesome... Little Brother (his group for you non-knowers of the TRUTH) is from Durham, NC right around the corner from me like seriously, 5 minutes down the road from me... and 9th will be at random shows around dj'ing and shit... its dope
