You can tell pretty quickly if a piece of gear has the potential to make you happy. Otherwise go to a local store and spend some quality time with a piece of hardware or program that you are interested in. Some people prefer an entire software rig and others are die-hard analog heads and cringe at the thought of making music with a analog modeling synths.īest way to evalutate gear and what is right for you is to get as much sound output samplings from the manufacturere, many have demo cd's that showcase their products or have listening features online. Personally, I like to sequence and record via software, but much of my 'instruments' are hardware as well as outboard effects. How you use them is the biggest factor in the final outcome. Music tools, whether software or harware are ultimately just that: tools. A lot of people's sound really comes in the mixdown process and is determined by many intangebile variables, settings, tweaks, etc. There's absolutely nothing wrong with appreciating tracks taht other people have made, but there's no guarantee that even if you purchased the exact same set-up (equipment-wise) that you could reproduce the sound that they have. Really it comes down to what you want "your" sound to be.
