Listen you CUNT!!!!! I was talking about a fucking computer with no add ons!
Of course you can soup up your computer you fuck up, what the fuck do you
think RDJ works with! But if you're just gunna take your basic Home PC then
it's a whole other fucking story!!!!!!!! You flame me for all this stupid
shit but you don't realize that I was talking about how many add ons you'll
need to buy before you're computer will be up to professional abilities. Like
the fucking Zip Drive, Jazz Drive, Sample Cell, etc. Oh and another thing, if
you think your gunna try to use floppy disks to store your audio then you're
the most dipwanklyest Cunt around! Think before you FLAME!!!!! Shithead!!!!!

>The advantage of samplers is that even though computers can do everything
and
>more that samplers can do, samplers are much much more faster.
"much much more faster." ?
Two words:
Macintosh.
SampleCell <<~~~~~ You've got to buy these things fuckboy, they just don't
grow on your ass one day.
Just as fast, if not faster than any dedicated sampler. <~~~ you seem to
know jack shit about samplers
>Another thing is you don't have to worry about your hard drive filling up,
proccessing
>power, and most importantly sound quality.
Bollocks !
Some more words for you:
Floppy Disk. <~~~~~???? What buttfuckery is this?
Zip.
Jaz.
How much space do you need ?
Works fine for me, I have three albums in progress on my drives at the
moment.
Yeah, shithead, and you had to BUY those things. In the
end you end up paying just as much as you would for a sampler.
>A sound card is not designed for professional sampling
SampleCell is just that. <~~~ of course you can just wait for it to grow on
your ass.
> if you're going to do it straight computer, like RDJ does now, you've got
to
get a very good
>audio interface to go with that wonderful soundcard that will also cost you
another few hundred
>dollars.
Simple fact of life:
If you want professional sound.
Be professional and use professional equipment.
Yeah, you've gotta buy it first though.
>you'll have to also buy a special type of audio interface to cut noise
between whatever you're sampling
>and the sound card which also requires expensive software.
Eh ?
>You'll need to get a good sound editing program, something like CoolEdit
>or Goldwave ( I think cooledit is better, but that's just my opinion)
Just buy a damned Mac and play with the big boys.
Macs are just as good, but there is no
"better" computer.
>You'll need a fast fucking computer with a fuckload of RAM.
Not true.
>RDJ himself uses 4 powerpc macs, along with a bunch of interfaces, and alot
of add ons.
Who cares what RDJ uses ?
One PowerMac will do.
It doesn't even have to be a PowerMac, a standard Mac will work just fine.
I think you need to come back down from "buttfuck my brain" land.
Don't bother posting until you know what you're talking about "Biostream".
There's too much opinion presented as fact on the net.
I can't stand all this ill-informed crap.
I'd like to fucking stick my foot down your throught. =D
To answer the original question, when they're working entirely on
computer for audio,, most pros use a Mac with ProTools and/or SampleCell.
