Hate to be the buzz-kill, but re-sequencing loops from a sample library, does not a musician make..............
Anything with you actually playing an instrument ?

There is a difference between playing an instrument and producing music. You are saying that all techno/electro/dubstep/dnb/etc producers are not musicians if they don't play an instrument?
Just to add, I don't consider myself a musician. I do it just for fun.

Musicians play musical instruments, and I even include electronic stuff like drum machines where you at least need a sense of physical rhythm. If you use a keyboard and mouse then you're not playing an instrument at all so you're not a musician. Doesn't mean you're not producing music, but you're sure as hell not playing it.

Hardware - 10 year old PC (makes it more fun), mouse, keyboard, headphones (no special pro stuff)

No, not really. It's just that the manner in which you sequenced the samples doesn't really constitute an artistic statement, equivalent to that of a "Music Producer."

That's fine and great, nothing wrong with that, I just wouldn't have labeled the thread "Music Producing."
(perhaps "Fun with sampling")

I have to disagree with you there. There's an almost infinite number of ways that you could layer the samples, have key changes, tempo changes. It's all expressive and therefore it is artistic. Bare in mind that a guy laying out a few hundred slices of toast in a cuboid shape was once on show in an art gallery. It's that subjective!
Also once you've finished laying out your tracks, just selecting a master volume and clicking "render" makes you a music producer. Does it make you a good one? You can't possibly say from just that statement, but you have produced music.

COD: Black Ops

So, any Black Ops players?
What do you think of the biggest console game of all time?
It's cool, but I think Halo is a bigger title than Black Ops. Just my opinion. I do love Black Ops single player though because it is really really engaging.

Well, all versions of COD are played more and more often than any Halo title on XBL, so I doubt that. Plus, Bungie is a terrible company that churns out GARBAGE, so let's stop talking about them.

Brainwashing?
I hope you don't mean brainwashing the public in an attempt to convince people to join the US army. Honestly, I'm amongst many who say, excuse me, KNOW that most of the US army is borderline mentally retarded. I love the COD series and I don't think it is at all a brainwashing device like that. There's other titles for that.

I was good at Halo. I maintained at least a 1.4 KTD ratio. It was frustrating because Bungie constantly removed the best multiplayer gametypes and listened to all the complaining from little kiddies. American kids are the worst nowadays, my friend. The worst.

I'm a man of numbers. COD blows Halo out of the water ever since COD4. I loved the story in Halo and thought it had great potential. Too bad Bungie got in the way of that...
I'm also a man of numbers, but would prefer Halo, in terms of content and multilayer. Kills and death do not mean anything in video games when it comes to competition.

Best multilayer gametypes removed? Which ones? Are you talking about MLG/hardcore gametypes?

I'm actually surprised to see you say that. KTD ratios are pretty much everything. Your probability of winning anything is increased tenfold with a high KTD ratio, let alone increased significantly if your KTD ratio is above 1. And once Bungie messed with the multiplayer gametypes, forget about a unforgettable experience; it sucks now.

I've played Counterstrike competitively (for money) and KTD ratios matter. I've played all other FPS games as a hobby and KTD ratios matter.
I'm afraid you're just offering your own personal opinion. I'm the only one with numbers to back it up.
Sorry.
Anyways, back to the original point. Anyone want to comment on COD:BO?

[Q] Where do you get your music mp3's from?

I am trying to figure where XDA peeps get their music from.
A lot of mine are legitimate, but a lot are pirated, long story short lots of piracy has lead to lots of purchases
CDs; I rip them in Apple Lossless (for archival purposes) and then use Max to encode them to 320kbps mp3. Then it's a case of making sure album art is correct and then fetching lyrics. I'm ridiculously anal about keeping an organised library ;P
I use amazon mp3 the most

I wanted to know how many full time, part time and hobby musicians are here on Xda?
Any drummers, vocalists, keyboardists, violinists or fellow guitarists out here on XDA???
Come on people lets post here ....
Please post your details; some YouTube or MySpace links of your playing.... write your influences and playing/singing style and also write since how many years you've been into this amazing world of music!
I am a part time free lancing guitarist aside from being a dentist
:O
Used to teach rock guitar and some basic music theory to potential musically inclined kids!! Now I don't get much time for the guitar because of my professional commitments...

My influences are mainly heavy metal, progressive rock and shred guitar!!! Rest all details on my MySpace page!!

I reckon we could have an awesome OT band if everybody got their heads together!
So you're a dentist? My root canal has gone to s**t. Should i just extract the offending molar and be done with it?

I think OT needs an established musician oriented thread.
To answer your question, I dabble with a few instruments and some electronic gear. I don't really get enough time to sit and properly work on anything these days though.
Truth is id much rather be mixing someone elses tracks than recording my own.

A radio station in the UK, Classic FM, is pretty good as there's little chatter and just lots of chilled music. You can listen to them online from their site...
http://www.classicfm.com/
Alternatively, just get a music player that comes with radio stations preloaded, like WinAmp. You'll find something to suit your tastes and needs online easily
