@CalciferCibus@finishinvention@natemixing you could say the same thing for recording instruments. it has its own technical process that not everyone can adapt to easily. in today's world, a DAW is a necessity of music production, something that all producers or beatmakers should be able to use with ease.
@CalciferCibus@finishinvention@natemixing you can be a both a producer and beatmaker with virtually no hardware. the amount of work you do in your DAW doesn't matter because ease of workflow isn't what makes a good song.
@finishinvention@natemixing instruments are nice and good to learn from, i don't believe keyboards are essential to a production workflow. It's not hard to work just work off of a DAW.
@windblur If you didnโt know, the piano from hollowheart is the giant from kontakt. Also lots of sound-font presets from GM, JNSGM-2, Chaos Bank, and various N64 games (mostly Ocarina of Time) for worlds era.
