Well i'm a newbe into production... i've been lately playing like a kid with Native Instruments tools (absynth, battery...) to see what i can do.
But i'm concerned about one thing, that is originalty, and to be honest i love 808 and 909 but i think it's too much used in mnml those days...
So my question is: I want to record stuff like water dropping, metalic, wooden sounds, REAL LIFE sounds and turn them into music... Does a plain old good computer microphone does the job? Or one of those little sony recorders?
And should i try to record those sounds into studio condicions? About using them i think simpler does the job or kontakt 2
Thanks for helping in advance

good approach for the beginning! you have to get a decent mic. (look for some beyerdynamic stuff on ebay) and a recorder. I have an old sony minidisc recorder which does the job for me, but today i would get a digital audio recorder (96 khz capabilities will give you great possibilities after your recordings - but isn't cheap).
The OKM soundman are great too. Real-head mic's. for field- and ambience recordings.
