So, I've been working with music-making software for years now, with a lot of frustration in the past. I got a newer, more professional package in the past year and experienced the same issue. However, with more time, a lot of research, and practice, I've been getting better results. I'm really starting to get good. But it made me realize that I could have done great stuff even with my older software.
Better equipment does make a difference... But far less of a difference as to how well *I* use my tool.
A ham-fisted analogy, in case anyone didn't pick up on it...
That said, anyone seen a really large framed black guy's wang?
Christ almighty.
