i have mostly come to the realization that poor college/highschool/bum kids can not afford anything but a nice phat-ass computer & a very nice interweb connection. seeing that most of us on this here board listen to "electronic" music... blah blah... idm, drum'n'bass... etc, do you think that the artists behind the music are changing the way 'most' music is played? i mean, you look at RDJ & see that when he "performs" live, he sits behind a laptop staring at it... like it will fly away or some shit... when you look at a shit butt-rock band like creed... they play their stupid songs to mind-less dumb fucks... so... do you think that the majority of artists enjoy analog instruments or digital instruments? |

I love the warmth of analog and the crunch of digital... |
||||||||

im not sure what you where getting at in the first parahgraph of your post... but as for as the question goes... id say any smart musician knows the pros and cons of both analouge and digital... and they use them both accordingly |

digital makes your life easier.... imagine: every spund you hear would be generated be analog synths, what you d'you would hear ?:808. so it depends on different styles ? i'm sure richard has used digital and analog generators for the selected ambient works albums. sorry i'm drunken and i just write some texts from my feeling now, and i'm listeningto railwayraver now. maybe i haven't answer your question, but today have to life with both things, analog and digital. analog rule for fat sounds but it's scientifically proved that you can translate an analog sound into a digital sound..... trust me, in these day you can do everything. and my english still sucks . |

hey man... did you ever check out my music? |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
what do the majority of musicians use? analog or digital *bump* sowwy |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
digital because i have to right now -- except when i play the piano |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'd say people who stay in like digital Those who go out(side) appreciate their analogue. Hopefully we all do a bit of both. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
currently all digital for me... but its for 2 reasons... 1. not enough money to get any analouge 2. digital is alot easier to use, and can be manipulated more i will definatly get some analouge stuff when i have the money ! |

Analogue is a way of life. Digital is too inpersonal. |
||||||||
|
|

um... you seem to be comparing "real" (acoustic, "play-it-yourself" instruments) as opposed to synthesised, sequenced (MIDI/computer) instruments. I think that the majority of popular artists are trying to sound most like the "real" variety, and they prefer to use whichever technique upholds their image best (albeit, in the case of "real" bands like Metallica, with the aid of devices, in the studio or onstage, that "correct" or make more palatable their playing.) |
||||||||

as far as analogue or digital synths, I think the overwhelming majority of artists are using digitals - they're much more portable and practical, and can easily reproduce analogue sounds. and me? only analogue kit I have is a 606 and I loved it until it stopped working. only other analogue gear I want is an SH-101, maybe an outboard filter, and a space echo. |

This topic comes up all the time :) I think it's a matter of taste, they both have good and bad points. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Digital or analogue doesn't say anything about quality, it all depends on how well the "digital" device is programmed and how good the "analog" parts are.... Digital gear tends to be a lot more practical to use, it's cheaper and generally more flexible and versatile. So I pick digital. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its great to include both ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I like plaids mixture, and they put it all through an analogue mixing desk to put that organic feel back in (or so they said in Future music :D) it should never IMO come down to one of the other unless for reasons such as resources and money |

At the end of the day....digi or Ana...nowt beats it being live! |

|
most musicians use analog obviusly. but recording artists with budgets must use digital technolgy |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I use analog on very very few occasions. I try to avoid it... |
||||||||
|

I have a Juno-60. For those of you who don't know, it's a completely analog synth, except for it's digitally controlled oscillators. I feel like I'm playing a real instrument with analog sounds, but you can do some amazing things with digital. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I would like to get a Juno-106, but I want a synth that can produce strings that aren't so friggin' bassy. I want ones that make strings like in Acred Avid Jam Shred. Will a Juno Do that? If not, what synth will? |

what the hell are you talking about? |

hey CLIC, how much does it cost - do you have a nice link for me :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've got a Juno 60 too :) i love that thing soooooo much... coz it makes amazing melodies to my music... well... maybe my music sucks ass though :( |

well YOU can answer my question then, quoth |

hehe - thanx :D |

Hmmm... Analog and Digital. By the way, does anyone know which way is the RIGHT way to spell analog(ue)? Is it spelt like RDJ does it: Analogue, or like this: Analog? Hmm. Anyway, have you tried using a bubblebath with the analog??? (*joke*). Sorry, I really don't know the answer. I'm just trying to get points. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
toejam : it's a nationality deal. if you're in most English-speaking countries, you say "analogue". if you suffer from ASS (American Spelling Syndrome), you say "analog". same as: colour, color realise, realize licence, license ;) |
||||||||

|
|
digi all the way man ! (Unless your talking about PS controllers, then stick to analog) |
||||||||
|

I'm sorry Marlowe, I was tired and I went to bed. Anyway, Quoth got you covered, because that's where I would've told you to go. Juno-60s are really underated, so they sell for pretty cheap. I got mine for $300 with a stand, so yeah. QUOTH: I love my Juno-60 as well. It's an amazing synth. =) |

ack! but no MIDI! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
funny thing... a lot of digital devices have features that allow you to put analogue effects into the sound. ...like offsetting the beats to sound more natural. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
...a perfect digital machine putting human imperfections into the music... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You can get a midi converter for it. DCB. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah. right. no velocity though, I assume...? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
still, my favourite "analogue" synth will always be my shitty, cheap poly800 :) it can run on batteries, and its filter is monophonic and behaves a bit strangely. it's even got a 256-step sequencer. it's like the perfect keyboard for taking out into the forest with a pair of headphones! too bad it's broken. I'll go buy another! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Nope, no velocity. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Who makes those? I'm curios... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i stole my juno from my high school ! i got it for free! :) woo hoo! i would've paid money for it though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's a Korg I got mine for $110 and that was a really bad price for one... if you want one, you should be able to find one for about $75. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Damn Quoth. I stole a xylophone, a snare drum, and the stand for the snare from my high school. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Cool, I might look into it. Korg makes some nice/interesting gear. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, they do. I've been trying to find "fun" ways to make music lately, and a lot of their gear (especially the electribes, I want one!) seems to be fun to use. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no one knows about the juno which is VERY nice, b/c the only person that does, IS ME!!!!!! i also stole some cymbals... coz i play the drums too *some avedis zildjian 18" & 17" crashes :) |
