Dyna Soar posted:Easily available, midi controllable and not super expensive. Gotcha. Yeah, the D-05 could definitely fit the bill. Leftfield retro suggestions, which'll require patience depending on your local second-hand market (which'll probably see a rise in options in a couple of weeks): Korg Wavestation, Kawai K5/K5000, Casio CZ series, Yamaha SY85, Kurzweil K2000. Sound design suggestions to sculpt the result: comb filters, phasers, tight EQ, gritty mid-fi digital effects. It's funny to me that cold and metallic tonal palettes are no longer easy to find due to the synth companies over-reacting to all their negative 90s gear reviews by somewhat single-mindedly fixating on "warm; analogue; fat; knobs." Meanwhile, the modular domain gets a large influx of LCDs, digital processing, and rotary encoders. Swings and roundabouts. e: Forgot to mention the Kurzweil! ynohtna fucked around with this message at 13:20 on Dec 20, 2017 |

Thorpe posted:Is there any good way to get a pulse out of my TR-8 that can reliably trigger the clock in on my Juno 6? I assigned the rimshot sound to one of the assignable outs but I don't quite think its loud enough or what the juno is looking for. It triggers about 90% of the time but any sort of arpeggiation is played way out of sequence. Cool sound actually, but I want to be able to have it useable. Would something like a clean boost guitar pedal to up the signal work, or am I sort of boned? Get rid of the TR-8. Get a TR-808.

I used to fly around with a ton of music gear & all the drat cables, tools & accessories. My technique was to show my music tech industry-related business card, and sometimes a photo of my office desk. "Look, I have to deal with this poo poo for a living." US airports post 9/11 were always the twitchiest, obviously. e: being a timid weirdo with a British accent probably helped complete the image. ee: and showing the Yamaha business card was an instant upgrade in Japanese flights & hotels. ynohtna fucked around with this message at 19:46 on Feb 23, 2018 |

Here's the Klee app made by Defective Records: http://defectiverecords.com/klee/index2.html It's not Max4Live, though, but rather an old-school compiled Max application (retro! vintage!), and be sure to RTFM (accurate hardware emulation!).

Stan Taylor posted:Anyone backing that Modal Skulpt portable synth? It looks pretty cool but I don't know that I can justify it when I have a Volca Keys already. It's pretty much the definition of a box to grab half-price in a year on the second-hand market when it's capabilities and limits are better understood and the early dreamers have moved onto the next shiny. e: much like the volca keys.

That's a lot of semi snake oil waffle for: new device found > host app queries device capabilities > device reports capabilities > host app attempts to auto-configure against a set of pre-defined expectations > user fights against interaction edge cases and incomplete customization UI e: to be fair, they have correctly identified the core failing of OSC. ee: this should honestly be labelled "mLAN 2.0" ynohtna fucked around with this message at 16:01 on Feb 1, 2019 |

Oh yeah, we're definitely ready for something new and usable. Speccing the solution behind closed doors so a small cabal can collude on first-mover tight integration and coincidentally "forget" competitors' needs is just more of the same poo poo that has crippled previous ventures, though. e: vvvv So you know, I'm a miserable old git with decades of jadedness and cynicism over the industry part of the music tech industry, so it's probably best to just ignore me.

 I've been one of the people behind those closed doors on a number of the past next-gen MIDI projects.Maybe this time will be different!

Yamaha RS7000 samples, synths, sequences, MIDIs. It's definitely a large unit in charge.
