FutureProducers.com :: Good web site / forum for producers

[James]

Just found this site today, if you are just getting into producing I think you will find it very useful - specifically their forums

Just had a look, a very good site indeed.

James, good spot mate (actually I've been a member of futureproducers since before I discovered CTW - I should have mentioned it before really!)

 

Whenever I've asked for gear advice/recommendations on futureproducers in the past, I've always got loads of useful replies within the day (a lot of the members are stateside of course).

There are some really good production forums about all very helpful and very friendly forums.. for some reason there never seems to be any [censored] on them which is always a good thing!!

Its quite interesting actually - when I went to the Turnkey sale everyone without exception had the upmost respect for each other - no pushing/shoving/arguing trying to get the goods. I find there is always such a good vibe in music shops - everyone out to help each other out and such a buzzing atmosphere - also no dodgy salepeople wanting to rip you off - instead people who KNOW what they are talking about and will offer you the best advice you can get - for free. QUALITY. Another favourite music shop of mine is Digital Village in Barnet (www.digitalvillage.co.uk) - small but they have everything - I went in once to dicus a new mixer and soundcard and ended up staying about 3-4 hours talking about gear and software packages - i was then asked if i wanted to attend a product overview/training upstairs in the shop - for some new version of Cubase at the time - for free.

 

Also get this same natural buzz at Music Festivals - which I intend to start going to a LOT more regularly (like I used to when I was early 20s). So if anyone is up for any/all of them next year (I'm talking about 'gear' festivals) let me know !

Yep,i can totally see what you mean.. i think its because everyone has the same love for the music and is genuinely interested in other peoples opinions/views/knowledge and experience with different software/equipment etc etc!! I love it personally!! Id definitely wana go to some music festivals.. wanted to go to the one i posted about a coupla months ago but couldnt so if you find any worth lookin into let me know and ill do the same!! I think there is a decent amount of people on here now that are interested enough to wana go to these things to make it a sucess!!
