| one time i went to guitar center just to kindof shop around, play with synths, acquire a taste for what the general "sound" of each synth was like.
while i'm playing around with an alesis ion, a sales rep approaches me:
rep: hey, what are you looking for?
me: hey, i'm looking for a synth capable of making jp-8080-esque supersaw sounds, do you have anything that does that well?
rep: i think what you want is reason. you'd have a lot of fun with reason.
me: i've heard reason, it's not what i'm looking for, i don't want a software-synth oriented DAW.
rep: what's that?
the guys in the actual guitar section of the store are much more knowledgable, i've found, than the zombies in the electronics section. |
