OK please tell me how much you think, i mean how could Armin afford this, did he Dj for a long time until he could afford these or what....please tell me cause i wanna get something similar since Djs don't grow until they create their own songs.. |

Yeh but how did Armin afford this...i mean he was like everyone here right...
was Armin a usual youth Dj who had inspiration for being a dj...how did he grow big...
i mean did he Dj for a while and get a setup to make normal songs and gradually buy more equipment..
OK another Question....i know Ferrys first song was Out of blue (i think), did he do the same thing. |

| you dont need all that stuff... especially if you dont know how to use it (im not implying you dont know tho). |
|
|
| Dj_Psygnosis |
yeh i know i won't need all of that but i need some stuff that can enable me to make tunes that i like not tunes that the computer only limits too...
i wanna think of a song in my head and just create it, i got heaps of new riffs, melodies in my head but i want them to come alive. |

| A lot of people don't go and buy all of that right at once...that's a huge hit on one's bank account. He probably bought most of that stuff one-by-one. |
