Seems like the problem isn't the cartridge designs, it's the lack of collaboration between LSDJ's software and the Cartridge maker.  Seems like LSDJ needs to be written specially for a certain cartridge, Not the cartridge trying to meet LSDJ.

In no way, shape, or form is this true.

@e.s.c If I made it I'd have a lot more money/bitches, but that's besides the point. Brostep is like Metal/deathcore in the "-core" scene there are a lot of haters but the musicians don't care because they make the most money. As a result anything anybody says will sound like jealousy and/or draw more attention to the music they despise, just look at the song "Friday", because everyone was hating on it she made a million dollars or something crazy on Itunes. If you really hate an artist don't post him/her on a forum or comment about because lets face it everyone in here listened to it even though it's shit and that's supporting Ephixa.

Short term profitability != success. Also, sweet straw man.

Meanwhile, as I happen upon this...

Unlike a lot of people I know who compose music alone in their rooms on Friday nights, I don't really enjoy "jamming". The process of smacking keys or listening to loops while altering them until I find something I want to keep doesn't seem like an ideal process to me. I have to sort of conceptualize what I'm doing before I even touch the keys (of my computer keyboard, I'm no pianist). This means that I do everything in-tracker. Sometimes I record chords off of my DW-8000 and build stuff around that, but that's fairly rare.

Sometimes I draw/write descriptions of what I want songs to sound like. Sometimes I hear songs in dreams and transcribe them. Sometimes when I'm feeling uninspired I go back to my vaults and combine/revamp four or five old sketches.

All of this makes working with other musicians close to impossible.
