Cats are missing the big picture. It's rediculous to say that you were being a 'smart ass'. How is that? Cause you told the truth?? Dr.Dre is in a multi MILLION dollar facility, and surrounded by incredible staff. Your tracks aren't going to sound like his on a Motif alone lol. Myself being a Motif Rack user also. There are some techniques you could experiment with, such as ADSR adjustments, gated reverbs, layers, and just sound selection in general. Usually the steps consist of giving your future engineer enough to work with (concerning your choice of sounds, layers and light FX) etc. [assuming you are a producer]
Don't underestimate the mixing engineer also. It's a common misconception that 'beetz' are just made to order already bangin' and ready for radio. NOOO. (not saying ANYONE here feels that way) just off of experience this is usually the case.
