this is a hiphop+rap forum isnt it?! - and if you want to be a good hiphop engineer/producer then you have to grind it out at home, or small studios and learn by doing... Are you going to learn how to mic a drum set - no, but you will learn your mpc4000, are you going to learn how to use an SSL - unlikly, but you will get proficient in PT and learn to get your pres and comps. A whole lot of large studios dont really know how to work with rap - just because you go to a large studio and see a pro working his console and getting tips doesnt make you better - what happened to establishing one's own sound - developing your own style.

and maybe Im being unclear when I say homestudio - Im not talking about an FL studios and a USB Mic.
