if i were you mate i'd go for a techno hard drive, those 130bpm drives are way too flimsy

Be careful of some of the cheaper models, I got a generic electro hard drive recently but it's only suitable for soft rock, everything sounds like you have a poodle perm. Avoid

Just don't get any bubblegum or cheese stuck in your trance drive. It will make a mess. :wink:

oooh, I like this idea, the fake out topic to serious question switcheroo. :D
I predict this will become the defacto method of posting by 2008.

Yeah I ran into a similar problem I picked up a progressive house firewire drive, but i can only use it for power ballads and folk music. Its really kinda wierd..... :?



some nites tho i get really lucky if the temperture in the studio is under 74degrees I can briefly do gangsta rap too.
