This is so true for plug ins. Pick a popular synth and stick to it! When I first started producing, I started downloading VSTs by the gigabyte, and install them at a similar rate. It was such a waste of time. After moving to a new computer, all I have is FXpansions synth pack, and ableton. THATS IT. :D

[DJVespers]

@NotSoSiniSter Yeah, good call. It's amazing what you can do with a deep understanding of ONE synth.

Starting to feel glad I stumbled on to your vids. I haven't been truly creative since I ditched my old keyboard and cassette recorder in favour of building a daw

[DJVespers]

@JiminyKracker Glad to have you around mate. All the best.

this video is the story of my musical career..... gear lust hell

[DJVespers]

@JimmyV2009 We should form a support group LOL ;)

[DjJPositive]

Very valuable information. I bought some new gear a year ago and I'm just getting around to learning how to use it properly.

The newest VSTi's are so pretty you think you're using Hardware lol.. All those wonderful green LCD screens that is just BMP or PNG's in a user interface.

[mfsflyer1]

It's true, when I started downloading free VSTi I was spending my time doing that and experimenting for a year after I had been using keyboards before that for 6 years before that.. So yes it's a curse, the blessing is once you're happy with it you can keep at it and just add things slowly to your eq..

@platoon1979 Same ones I use, the HR824's (the originals, not the MK2's).

[dubmonkeyaudio]

Thats is so true, but Vespers do you think ableton will even die? because i would be lost without that DAW :(

[platoon1979]

what mackie series are these?..seen tutorials of some of my fave producers that use the same..however been searching for this series but seem not available in Europe i assume......helpful tutorial again

[FourOneProductionz]

i wana buy a mpd midi controller haha im always looking for the new something and that something always looks at me and says. "You Need This" haha and i get so damn excited haha.. but yea i do understand what your sayn. i am addicted.. but from all the plugins and hardware ive bought i have started to realise that my beats are the same as before lol.

but i would like the mpd midi controller as i dont need to learn it, but will feel better using drums. IMO

but my goal now is Sonic Layering:)

[dtanobo]

Pretty much the only VSTs I have are Sylenth1 and DUNE and I still am very new on DUNE but it's got crazy amounts of presets. Everything else is pretty minimal. Maybe a little Ogun here or there.

[mdotmusic]

100% DEAD ON!... also the amount of DEBT producers get into is CRAZY!
