Thanks for all the continued replies folks. I want a pair of headphones anyway because sometimes I like to pretend I can mix records too and as I mentioned at some point, I'm only one awake while I work a lot of the time. I will check out ebay, but I'm that .1% of people that has had nothing but bad...

Hijack away. I feel my query was satisfied.

I bought the 5's because money was tight, but they really have no sub, so had to buy a sub. I'd rather have 8's or maybe even 6's than have this big fat sub. Granted, I can simulate earthquakes, but not overly useful for production. Listening enjoyment is high, but I wish I spent my money different...

but you don't wanna make house, you want something with a little more bottom.... :roll: :trolling: I might make some house -w- But seriously, I didn't think this thread would spark any debate. Ya'll have certainly got me thinking. And, yes, low end is obviously important, but in the near future I d...

Thanks for all the replies. I will be saving up to get KRK Rokit 5s I think. They seem like a good hobby set of monitors. Recommended here and at SOS. @Ayatollah: I don't know if they are really "monitors" but there are speakers labeled as such for under a hundred per pair. Checked several...

Maybe I should have asked hooker or headphones? Around my neck of the woods, 100 bucks would be over paying for a blowjob...

I kinda thought someone might reply that way, thanks for the advice. These generally aren't good questions to ask salespeople.

I've been a hobby/bedroom producer for about five years just fiddling about when the mood struck and have recently decided to take it more seriously (right, right you've heard this one a thousand times, I know). My budget is right around 100-135 dollar mark. For years I've been foolishly laboring us...

padawan is also very very very decent! I forget what the team's/company's name is that makes padawan is, but they have a few other cool ones too. I think it's "Peach" that is a cool little 8-bit synth. I've been waiting for someone to bring up padawan on here. I also think that Crazy Diam...

You'll probably get more luck posting this in the production forum in the sticky thread, "finished tracks for feedback".

@OP: It seems you already like FL Studio. I've been using it for a long time and have been convinced that, at the moment, there is absolutely no need to relearn how to do everything I already no how to do (not a ton mind you) in another more expensive software program. I'd say stick with FL Studio w...

A quick note about the bible--several reviews on amazon and else where stated that the bible is pretty much just the help manual that comes free w/ the software as a PDF. Can anyone confirm or deny this? Other reviews said it was extremely helpful. I ended up not purchasing that and getting a some o...

I saw "How to Make a Noise" when I searched amazon.com, will have to see if I can get it from the library.

Thanks for the reply. Good to know.

A search of dubstepforum.com didn't turn up any relevant threads on this topic. I'm looking for recommendations on books on Fl Studio such as "FL Studio Bible" (By Scott Fisher). A quick amazon.com search turned up several hits, so I know they are out there, but has anyone read them and go...
