| I think the problem lies within software overload. Get select software to do select things. With hardware it's one interface and it takes a while to learn in and out. Treat software the same way. Learn it before you move on. Even ppl with lots of hardware make sh1t music because they don't take the time to learn it. Take slow steps to learning the VSTi and their capabilities the same way it should be done with hardware. After you thoroughly understand it, expand by filling in missing pieces slowly. Nobody goes and buys a Motif, Fantom, Korg, MPC4000, MV8800, Alesis Fusion, SE1X, Virus, Nord, etc at one time. They would make the same garbage that anyone on a computer makes who doesnt take the time to learn one piece at a time.
Also I have my Novations mapped to my software and the maps are saved to a backup disc. So I'm sitting on load and go. I think if the approach was different with respect to software, there wouldn't be a gap in quality. Some ppl make great music with software. Others feel the need to have every VSTi they own on each and every song. Don't overload it because you have it. Utilize it properly. Great debate! |
