Dude I have no idea what these guys are up to... I totally agree with you.. taste has plenty to do with making great music, and you telling us what sort of music you like and want to make is ofcourse very useful.... Im having major difficulties understanding how he sees that as poo slapped in hes face. Its called projection I guess.. Well anyways.. heres some toilet paper!

Pardon me I misread you. I thought you said hard dance. I don't really like either:p
Stormbringer, I think what you're not realising and why people are getting annoyed, is that the fact that you make hard dance is COMPLETELY irrelevant to your questions as to how to start producing. So people are thinking that your obsessing about a genre. When a lot of people (myself included) produce we completely discount the existence of genres at all, because really the only difference is a nudge in terms of BPM, different synth patches or a different drum pattern. I personally get quite bored of people talking about genres, simply because I don't think (after I've been producing for a while) that they actually help describe music at all.
I think your assuming that different tools are better for different genres, but that's not the case. You can produce everything from hard trance to house to techno with the same tools. If you read the stickies it would have been better;) |

| If genres don't matter, i could probably ask you to make a full orchestral score in sonata form and you wouldn't blink. Like most niche genres, Trance covers a very narrow bandwidth of musical ideas and has a definate style that defines the genre.Some synths/instruments/fx suit certain sounds which suit certain genres so i think certain tools are definately more suited for certain genres. |

THANK YOU! :) Even hard trance and club trance also covers a "different narrow bandwidth of musical ideas and has a definite style", apart from each other. So, I did think certain tools might be more suited for certain genres....but wasn't sure. I didn't want to buy something that was really more suited to make hip hop, instead of hard trance or something more suited to make the softer trance and not the harder trance with the bass. I love bass, when done right. That's why I made this post. Now, if it shouldn't matter what you use, then I wanted to know that, too. |

I can imagine you saying the following:
"When people say "Kit Phillips" it doesn't describe the TRUE essence of Kit Phillips." |

| flat structure for the win, all my music in one folder doesnt matter what genre it is, its sorted by date instead. that way i know the best tracks are either on top or bottom (old or new) |

| If u want sounds out of the box to make most types of trance, get nexus and a host. I might get flamed for that but, Nexus comes with tons of sounds, sounds that u could be familiar with and its simple to use. If I was starting all over again from scratch, I would prolly start with Live and Nexus and nothing else. But, since it seems that you have no clue about producing (not an insult), you may want cheaper gear, to see if you even like producing. |

LMAO, I thought I was gonna get flamed for saying Nexus, and you don't even know what it is.
For dance music, IMO-its one of the best romplers money can buy, if thats what your into.
Some will flame because its a rompler and not a "synth".:D |
