???

Why not just pop in a CD and press "Play?"

I'm not a fan of rap music, but I still love these songs.

A little bit

I heard that when 50 cent was shot, the bullets bounced off those abs. ;)

That's a fantastic point Shades.

I guess since I don't do that, I must be a damned retard, right?

Quite the opposite, actually. I'd have no idea how to do anything you described.

It just seems like a whole lot of effort to go through, just to duplicate the same sound.

Shades and Gad,

Thirty years ago it took a machine like this to imitate just a few sounds via electronic means:

TONTO (The Original New Timbral Orchestra) is one of the most famous and influential modular synthesizers in the world.

TONTO’s Expanding Head Band, made up of Malcolm Cecil and Robert Margouleff, was an influential electronic music duo from the 1970’s. They only released a few albums, but these recordings, along with their collaborations with musicians such as Stevie Wonder, helped make synths a standard element of modern popular music.

TONTO was a huge multitimbral polyphonic analog synthesizer, designed and constructed by Malcolm Cecil. It featured Moog modules, but also modules from other manufacturers and some of Cecil’s own design.

Stevie Wonder using the machine:

TONTO

To think that you can imitate an entire orchestra with a laptop, even to go so far as to imitate imperfections to make it more real, is quite staggering.
