There is a massive list of US based producers in the dubstep forum, search for that maybe.

After having my hard drive give up on me last year I turned to remote backups, can access my files wherever I am as well now. 150GB for £4 a month ain't bad. http://www.idrive.com/pricing.htm lol So you have to download your files sp you have a local copy every time u need them?! then upload change...

...To answer the OPs question. I've had great luck with Apogee's interfaces and highly recommend them. You could probably find a used Duet or a new ONE for around that price range. They've got both XLR and 1/4in which is nice to have. Apogee gear is great stuff, but since he said this is for a PC g...

Their other software on the site says it's mac only. I thought Max/MSP wasn't platform dependent though?

USBs transfer rates are higher but firewire out performs it at sustained transfers like audio and and large file transfers. I haven't looked for a while, have any USB 3.0 or firewire 800 interfaces come out recently? To answer the OPs question. I've had great luck with Apogee's interfaces and highly...

Whoa looks pretty fun to mess with.

From their site: "In order for users to hear music rapidly on the SC platform, we re-encode every track to high quality 128 kbps Mp3s. However, if you make your file « downloadable », then the users who have access to it will be able to download the original file (whether it’s Aiff, Wav or Mp3)...

that and love to be able to do direct logic collabs

I've heard from a number of people that tested the apogee duet on hackintoshs that it works great.

For staring any length of time, black backgrounds with white text (or main elements) are significantly less straining on the eyes. I think any really dark backgrounds work though.

i'll give a listen on a pair of shit and decent headphones as well as speakers a lot of the time though just because it gives you a different perspective on a track (which is nice after you've heard it a bunch). It's nice knowing what kind of setup people have if your sending them something online. ...

not me one of my regular customers. he's only had it for a day, trying to hit him on the cell phone to help him out but it's hard to teach someone without the plugin/comp in person or over the phone. Explaining stuff that like over the phone is a huge pain. Maybe have him snag teamviewer or somethi...

this is what I'm on now. it's a lot of fun to work with. mainly produce in logic though.

making money off it would be hard for sure unless you have something really solid, in depth or original. however I'm sure you'd get downloads if you put some stuff together. Most producers have a sort of ongoing sample pack of their own original bits to use.

It's definitely more interesting to the person making it on the spot since it's all new to you too, as opposed to playing a track out you've already heard a gazillion times. It never really keeps my interest though, getting that level of studio perfection, depth and variance just isn't going to happ...

whoaaha didn't check for a bit and came back to this huge alpacaey rape scene! Just a couple things... On your site's FAQ: What should I do to prepare my file?
