Let's see the average Macintosh operator come up with stuff that's up to par with tDR. Just because Photoshop makes it easier to manipulate images doesn't mean anything.. I see a lot of shit that probably was done with Photoshop and yeah, it's seamless and neat, and attractive.. but I also think it hasn't got a hope of being brilliant as I could do it in 2 seconds with the same tools, but that is no where near what they're trying to say "photoshop makes a moron someone with talent the likes of picasso." Being in the demo-scene I've heard this a lot. because people use Photoshop instead of spending countless hours pixelling their graphics.. If you could achieve the same effect in minutes rather than hours, why not do it? only an idiot would.. but one thing I'll say, I was going to buy an MC-303, and now that I hear that you can't make you're own sounds I'm not going to.. I won't pay $600 for something where I can't even make my own sounds, fuck that. __ __\ \ / /_\ \ \_____/ www.freq-div.home.ml.org
