Which do you prefer…

Amiga or Atari ST_______
Samples or VST________
Breakbeat or Breakcore_______
Analog or Digital________
Distortion or Overdrive________
Laptop or Desktop________
Software Synth or Hardware Synth_________
Headphones or Speakers_________

ok, so it’s 8 questions, whatever, feel free to add 2 more

Amiga or Atari ST_______
Haven’t had any experience with either, unfortunately
Samples or VST________
…VST samplers? :P both are necessary
Breakbeat or Breakcore_______
Breakbeat I suppose
Analog or Digital________
I really like my digital/analog hybrid Ensoniq ESQ-1
Distortion or Overdrive________
Distortion :3 MESSY
Laptop or Desktop________
Desktop
Software Synth or Hardware Synth_________
Softsynth. I don’t have that kind of room
Headphones or Speakers_________
Headphones. Like aforementioned, I don’t have room for speakers :(!

I have broken your questions

Amiga or Atari ST_______

Amiga, because I did not own an Atari ST.

Samples or VST________

both have their usage. I would prefer using samples, and with forecoming Renoise versions my usage of samples will surely raise, but probably never reach 100%.

Breakbeat or Breakcore_______

Break rules (as a noun, not as a “to rule” verb form).

Analog or Digital________

This is the era of digital recordings; using analog has still much sense, but being radical about it is senseless.

Distortion or Overdrive________

Overdrive.

Laptop or Desktop________

Desktops are much more usable, have better performances and are cheaper. Laptops, however, have much more flexibility. But I guess you know it, don’t you?

Software Synth or Hardware Synth_________

Software all the time.

Headphones or Speakers_________

day = speakers, night = headphones.

Amiga or Atari ST_______

I had both and both had their advantages. But Amiga introduced me to the world of trackers while Atari only showed me, that Cubase without any hardware was not enough.

Samples or VST________

I love romplers which are basically just Samples. In VST

Breakbeat or Breakcore_______

Breakbeat. Breakcore only, when I am in Holland.

Analog or Digital________

Digital in production, Analog when DJing.

Distortion or Overdrive________

Distortion. Hardstyle ;)

Laptop or Desktop________

I hate laptops.

Software Synth or Hardware Synth_________

I use both equally. Still owning a Yamaha DX 10

Headphones or Speakers_________

As I live in a small flat with annoying neighbors I am forced to use headphones but I prefer speakerz

Amiga or Atari ST_______

AMIGA.

Samples or VST________

I like VST’s for melodies as they should be more or less in tune with each other… but obviously love samples when sampling/remixing, and I also dig playing around with (spoken) vocals a lot, actually I prefer this to the music itself sometimes (which is more or less just a background… and the kick I get out of vocals with basic music in turn often motivates me to polish the music some). For drums I use samples exclusively (bXX/9XX), but try to avoid loops.

Breakbeat or Breakcore_______

Neither… heartcore beat breaks! :ph34r:

Analog or Digital________

Digital, although I think I’ll get me a keyboard one of these days…

Distortion or Overdrive________

slight distortion

Laptop or Desktop________

desktop

Software Synth or Hardware Synth_________

software synth

Headphones or Speakers_________

headphones

Amiga or Atari ST
Samples or VST
Breakbeat or Breakcore
Analog or Digital
Distortion or Overdrive
Laptop or Desktop
Software Synth or Hardware Synth
Headphones or Speakers

Amiga or Atari ST_______

Ill say st. I used one a bit but i was all hardware back then.

Samples or VST________

If pushed (which im not) id say samples. I still dont get on with many vst synths.

Breakbeat or Breakcore_______

I dont really know what breakcore is but i suspect i make it. Breakbeat as a genre bores me to crying blood.

Analog or Digital________

Definatly both.

Distortion or Overdrive________

Distortion.

Laptop or Desktop________

Would like to say laptop but i use the keyboard too much. Desktop.

Software Synth or Hardware Synth_________

Hardware synth as workhorse software synth because it means i can afford big modular stuff to play with.

Headphones or Speakers_________

Speakers.

Samples or VST
VST:s

Breakbeat or Breakcore
…eh, can I choose industrial?

Analog or Digital
Everything that can be, will be digital sooner or later ;)

Distortion or Overdrive
If i have to choose i probably choose distortion

Laptop or Desktop
Desktops are still much more powerful

Software Synth or Hardware Synth
Can anyone really prefer hardware-synths any longer? I have a whole arsenal of hardware-synths and 2 hardware samplers, and I almost NEVER use them anymore. Sure, my Access Virus is better than most VST:s and the jv2080 is great (have 7 expansions), but it so much easier to use software and with some experience you can get at least as good sound with plugins that you can with those… In the same way I prefer digital over analog, I also think the hardware shall go digital ;)

Headphones or Speakers
I prefer speakers, but my studio is located in my apartment and I live in a 100 year old, and not very not sound-proof, house so in respect of my neighbors I still use headphones almost all the time I compose…

Amiga or Atari ST_______Amiga

hey!!! AMIGA RULEZ!!! We kick ass to the Atari scene here!! ;)

…well… i think that this war is over since a long time :P

Amiga or AtariST: Amiga 500

Samples or VST: Samples: Making samples from VST is good. Sampler rules though.

Breakbeat or Breakcore: No idea. Probably Breakbeat. Breakcore is a bit immature.

Analog or Digital: Both

Distortion or Overdrive: The only reference I have is the Boss distortion pedal and the Overdrive pedal. Distorton was better.

Laptop or Desktop: Now, no difference

Software Synth or Hardware Synth: No answer

Headphones or Speakers: Headphones. Unless I have a perfect room, Speakers are a pointless expense.

Senheisser HD650 for ever

Which do you prefer…

Amiga or Atari ST_______

havent used either really

Samples or VST________

both, but im headed more the direction of samples that i’ve made myself lately

Breakbeat or Breakcore_______

neither?

Analog or Digital________

tough one, that. I’d say analog if i had a choice, but it all goes through renoise in the end!

Distortion or Overdrive________

Oooh! good one! overdrive for sure!

Laptop or Desktop________

lap, lap, lappie.

Software Synth or Hardware Synth_________

hardware preferrably, but i’ll take what i can get

Headphones or Speakers_________

monitors!
