Tone, I find myself agreeing with you a majority of the times... this is not one of those. I mean, is there really a need to keep regurgitating the "REAL INSTRUMENT / REAL MUSICIANS / MOUSE JOCKIES" thing? You do have a partial point... there are indeed some mouse jockeys who randomly click away until they get something going... BUT... is it really that necessary to generalize? Is a person who plays virtual instruments, be it within Reason, Record, Live, Logic, etc. with a MIDI keyboard not good enough to be considered a real musician? Must a person have a FORMAL musical education to be a musician? Does a person with zero theoretical background but with a good enough ear to be able to mouse in some great melodies/harmonies lose the right to be called a musician?

To be honest, you're starting to sound like a snobbish, uber-classically trained, 80-year-old fart.

"I remember when we had no electric power, and to be a real musician, you needed to pick up a real guitar and strum it, or a real violin and bow it or pluck it. Ahhhh those were the days. No fancy schmancy 'puters to record it. Closest thing we had to that was a feather pen and a scrap of paper to write in the notes. Youse daymned keeds and youse toys! Youse not musicians!"
why even bother to post crap like this? who's sounding like the whiny old man? can't you tell when someone's trolling Propheads? I'm replying to someone else, dunno why you're butting in, I'm trying to back out. the little yellow school bus is here, get on.

some guys can do more with a fish head and and a spool of thread than some of us can with all the toys in the world. that goes without saying.

yes generalizations, yes trolling for Re-tards. Reason has some really obvious, laughable Re-tarded aspects to it, it's very easy to make fun of.

I take it you're a mouse jockey? :lol: (yes you do some great music shit, just replying in kind.)
MIDI keyboard jockey :wink:

Anyways its all good. I'm just sayin, bud. I's just sayin.

Thanks for the love. Please tell the bus driver I won't be coming in to school today. Mom can't find my helmet.

:lol: I know you're right. I'm trying to get out of this thread. it's going to get out of control.

I'll be in the back of the bus rolling one on the seat. Image
