A lot of hits were made with just 3 or 4 tracks of tape and a whole lot of imagination and creativity. Most of the equipment we have are just tools and it's how you decide to use them and overcome their limitations that defines how good you can become. I once heard a fantastic reader demo song in a Future Music cd that was made using tracker software, a soundblaster, and a cheap keyboard. I try to imagine what the bloke could have done with better equipment...

Best,
