That's some of it.... You're forgetting about 20 other keyboards, preamps, EQ's, etc.

They also vibe on some cheap JBL series pa speakers with subs. They use Genelec 1037's too. Lots more outboard and synths.

I love it when somebody posts or mentions somebodys gear list, somebody HAS to say something about copycats, biting, etc. It's hella not predictable...

You may be kidding, but it's true. It's hard for one to be successful in these current music times unless they all copy the same thing and pretty much put out the same song. We wonder why listeners aren't buying music any more, and why should they when once you bought one song, you pretty much have them all.

But anyways, I'm getting too off topic. Back to the gear slutting! (this kind of thread is what this web sit is all abut isn't it?)

breakbeat-cafe,

Didn't mean to blast you for posting the gear list, but this has been posted a million times since the Neptunes first dropped Superthug. It's no longer a big secret what gear they use. Remix, Scratch, Sound On Sound, and many other publications got very indepth with their gear and even production processes. It's almost common knowledge now and that's why people are replying the way that they are.

Now tell me what computer programs Timbo uses and then you can get a high-five from me!

Not only that, but if you also get the new Schmuck Systems Flimflamulator then you can actually sound BETTER than the Neptunes!

Dont tell anyone though.
