Hi i kind of want to start playing the keyboard/piano but there's really no room in the main part of my house for a decent piano so i'll settle for a keyboard. Upon looking at different ones online it seems that an MIDI keyboard would be fun to play around with especially since i'm getting a new computer for christmas. My impression is that MIDI keyboards do not produce sound but instead send "messages" or notes to my computer which are then played from my computer's sound system. It also seems that i would need to buy or obtain some type of mixing software unless there is useful freeware. Could someone elaborate on this? is there anything else i need? how easy is it to set up and use the mixing software? edit: in regards to mixing software, i don't want to spend more than $100 on it.

it is run by Shawn Corey Carter.

okay so basically diablo 3 and TES 5 for my senior year of highschool.............. i think i'm going to enroll in community college.

the conclusion could have been much stronger. he was probably tired though

just watched 5 minutes of it. brilliant.

i wasn't expecting this type of response. thank you. hedge: thank you. flow is one of my weaker areas swiller: again, thank you. I'm currently using an iphone 4 mic which suffices much better than my previous but i have no idea how to do any of this EQ stuff that artists seem to do and my quality is far from professional because of it skull: the group name i haven't really had negative opinions about until now. honestly speaking i could ditch the group name if i wanted to.. its sort of something i've hidden behind to shield myself from direct hate and disrespect. especially at first. steve: ^ low_c: as i said before the group name was created so people would not say "hey look at these kids with a dead serious rap group". but it makes sense that the name seems stupid and childish now. i don't know who jon lajoie is but admittedly my lyrics do get dull and ramble. and the last metaphor was kind of meant to be a joke. nadril: well theres no need to be embarressed for me. if my friends and class mates shared that view then i assure you i would not continue with it

Hey. I know a lot of you aren't fans of rap or hip hop so you don't have to keep reading. if you are a fan of Rap or hip hop, or are just in a bad mood- i have a great opportunity for you. Over the past 8 months i've had this rap group and i've done a few collaborations including one with a pretty popular underground group from where i am. I've been constantly at work to improve my flow, lyrical content, vocals, and delivery. Recently I've been trying to expand my fan base and get criticism on my work. that's the only way artists get better. I have about 8 of my best songs on Myspace Music and have two newer songs on Reverb Nation. I abandoned myspace since they updated the layouts to copy facebook. Please listen to my work and critique me. the only thing i ask of you is that on my oldest songs you don't comment on my sound quality as i am aware and have since gotten a better microphone. For every 100 plays i get on reverbnation i will also be releasing an old song from our archives. feel free to critique any artists i have collaborated with as they also would appreciate it. if you enjoy the songs and wish to stay up to date you can become a fan on Facebook thanks again

^thats good to hear. enjoy it! my winter track conditioning started today, what a great opportunity to get this thread active again :D I guess it's time for my track goals this year. last years got messed up because as some of you know i had a twisted ankle followed by bronchitis to end my season -.- first column are my official PRs and in parenthesis my best unofficial time and approximately when i ran my official time second column is what i expect to run in indoor meets (only have two, optional), time trials, pre season, or exhibition meets. third column is what i expect my season bests or post season (if any) times to be 400: 60.0 (57, '09) 56 54 800: 2:10.3( 2:08, '10) 2:08 2:04 1600: 5:12 ('10) 5:00 4:45 3000*: 13:37 (10:25 XC SPLIT, '08) 10:05 INDOOR ONLY EVENT :( 3200*: --.-- (11:00 XC SPLIT^, --) 10:30 10:05 *- events i probably won't have the opportunity to run My 3k time is from freshman cross country. my XC split times are splits my coaches have logged from my 5k races. lets hear some goals

my date for semi tonight (who drove) had a kanye song playing when we got in her car.. then another kanye song came on that i never heard before. i looked over at the lcd on the dash and the whole track list was there. i'm seriously in love.

hi there used to be a void pure named iLiberated. does anybody here remember his "quitting" video where he took a mirror video of himself irl and talked about why runescape wasn't fun while smoking a dag, wheezing, and coughing? just thought i would share. lock if against the rules please have a nice night.

buy a free axe from bob's axes. he is a really nice guy. now click some trees. once u get logs get a free tinderbox. light a lot of fires. now pick up ashes and sell in the exchange. now buy a small net and catch shrimp. after that cut logs and light them on fire. then cook shrimp and eat them. collect ashes and repeat process.

not sure if it makes a difference but this computer is behind a router and switch with one other computer and my xbox also on.

i think our current elitist attitude is due to the recent obsession with maximizing efficiency

problem solved

yeah maybe sprinting a 400 versus jogging an 800. anaerobic activity quells in comparison to aerobic activity in terms of pure calorie burning mainly because it encourages sweating and an elevated heart rate. I'd bet money that i burn more calories running a 9 mile day than you could, on average, if you spent 4-5 hours lifting. the constant high heart rate and fluid loss on the open road is unparalleled. if you are actually getting this information from a reliable source, could you post it? i feel as if it would be an interesting read. on topic: i do ab ripper 3 days a week. it will usually leave my abs feeling sore the next day. in 16 minutes (the shortest workout video, btw) it works the abs in almost every possible way. some of the movements are unnecessary to my fitness, being a runner. but after about 6 ab rippers you will see a lot more tone and 'cuts' in your abdominal area. your top two abs will show results very fast but the obliques and bottom abs take a long time to come in. i did it 3 days a week late june- early september, i had a rocking six pack by the time my season started. then i didnt have time so i went to 2 days a week, then i stopped completely for the last month of my season. Since i'm a really weak runner, my abs were seriously the only thing helping me power up hills and stabilize myself on uneven terrain. once i stopped working them i lost definition pretty fast and my performance showed that. now i've been doing it 3 days a week for the past 3 weeks and my abs are back. edit: i didn't follow the diet plan whatsoever. i eat pretty healthy in american terms but i'm probably consuming 2500-3000 c a day.

sorry i just decided not to give a back story because i feared my post would be overlooked. I will actually be sharing it with my mom but the reason i consider it basically mine is because she has really bad eyes and does not ever drive at night. also we live in a ridiculously central location.. example: her current car of 3-4 years has like 16k miles on it. the only regulations she set for the new car were a general price figure, that it be automatic, and that it was 4 door. i suggested just getting a used car for myself but she refused citing that used cars were unreliable? and that we have no room for a 5th car in the family and it would be stupid to pay insurance on a 5th car. yes my dad has 3 cars but only one is nice.. the one he drives every day he riced out with a custom exhaust and **** like that and another one is just a 'show' car that he refuses to let go of. the only reason im looking for a car kind of in the mid-upper 20k's is because its going to be somewhat of a gift to me if i can hold my current GPA which i have been working my ass off for.. and it will be replacing a not-so-bad pontiac g6 (v6) (approx 200hp) so i need the speed factor otherwise it will feel like a downgrade.

hey guys just wondering i'll be looking at my first car in a couple months and i'm looking for something sporty, four door, fast, but small. under 31k. right now its between an automatic audi a3 with no special options (around $30,500) or a 4-door VW gti (auto) with ALL special options (coming in around $30,975). any suggestions?

iphone 4

from what i've read on mini's they have handling and breaking that rivals that of a porsche

nevermind i got it.

If you are under 18 I'd say forget having someone make it for you. the chances of that turning out well and going smoothly are slim. I think it only costs $99 per year (correct me if i'm wrong) to get the developers kit. Your better off starting up with a friend or something and learning the ropes.

Okay so i'm trying to release a new song tonight for my rap group and i recorded it crystal clear on my iphone. Next i have to combine the voice track with the instrumental and oh joy apple has another ridiculously incompatible format i have to deal with. I've used switch sound converter twice in the past but now my free trial is expired and theres literally no sound converters on the front page of google results aside from switch that don't put annoying taglines in the finished product. i need to convert to a windows format like mp3. PLEASE help.

who cares? if you lose connection during any other minigame i'm prettttyyy sure that you don't get any reward at all. cherish your 1k rc exp

i have an account, which is actually a very old one from my middle school friend, that has zombie head and easter ring. also a few of my friends from rl have the easter ring because that was when we all started playing. but for those of us who don't have easter rings.. i think it was fine. honestly i remember when i started playing on my old account tons of people would just be transformed into eggs all the time. now i'm lucky if i come by one per week.
