I'v been producing Hip-Hop for a couple of years now and have some questions that i cant seem to find anywhere so here they go:

What type of compression and how much should i use on hip hop vocals?

What type of compressors work best on both vocals and electronic drums from drum machines and keyboards?

How much reverb should be used on those same vocals?

I recently decided to try digital/PC recording and cannot quite get my system working properly. These are the items I have set up now. Sony VAIO PCV-RX-540(1.2ghz celeron, 256ram) with an additional Maxtor 7200rpm 80 gig hard drive added for the audio. OS is Windows XP. I am using a Tascam US-428 for the audio/midi interface. The software is the bundled Cubasis that comes with the US-428.

I've been experimenting with getting my computer to make less noise. I'll talk about the stuff I've done so far.

Hey everyone, lets welcome Kimo Kaulani, President/CEO of Nuendo Music Group. Kimo mailed me a few day ago asking me why we didn't have a Sonar forum :D

Okay, there haven't been any new jokes posted around here lately...this situation is BULLSHIT. To quote Bob Buontempo aka The Mix Fix, "alright, let's see if you stiffs have any sense of humor..." :D

Someone was asking me for this a while ago and I forgot all about it until I came across it today.

Right, ive been told that by using Reason in conjunction with Cubase i can get a lot more functionality - i dont see this at all. Cubase just does my head in!

Can someone recommend a good place to learn about the program and its functions in depth?

In me there are several questions:

- how it is possible to move its music?

- what mechanisms to use for etogo?(to there are questions of promotions & of produsings. )

Give we will not be try negative to relate to the musicians with the different ideology of views!

Respect!
