Just got my first automatic copyright takedown on soundcloud. Muh robot farts sound like some rap song apparently. Happened on upload which seems odd. Don't they lose any kind of indemnity protection as a service if they're filtering for copyright violations?

I'm not that familiar with the TT but I don't think it's got dinsync out. I know it has MIDI out, I'd just use that. If you decide to get another volca down the line you can just sync out from the beats and it'll lock.

Hating on 27s, now samplers. Man. 'Trons will fit on floppies and unexpanded EPSes. I'd go for an EPS or EPS16 because they're great but the easiest would be CD3000, built in CD. If you go computer, get a junky OG iPad, there's an "official" tron app. It's not the best put together but it sounds good. e- now that I've had coffee, I remembered a dude did that electone conversion getting posted to AHML, this one's an E50 though.

To be fair, the TX16W was a demonic beast from the pits of despair. Forged, a hate engine; galvanized in the blood of the stillborn... standard Yamaha production line. Its purpose, only reclaimed for holy pursuit by the work of angels. Its reincarnation, a dangerous portent.

wafffllllllles cop the ASR10 instead Spent the last week giving the OP1 another chance, still only dig on the sampler. The new CWO shifter is pretty sweet though. Probably going to send it back and spend $toomuch on that eurorack keyboard.

Like most filters they're better animated. Approach them like you're wavesequencing/vector synthing rather than using a static filter.

HaB posted:Been reading this thread a bit, and I am currently in the market, but I need expert advice. Nord Wave Anyway, I think the best value for your situation is still a kurzweil. You could get a K2600 for under a grand these days, or a K2661 if you want something more portable. That'll get you all the bread and butter sounds you want, lots of live controls, and some serious programmability for robot farts in the studio. I like the Motif7 and they've become pretty reasonable now but the UI is typical Yamaha obtuse and the keybed is a little clacky. I do much prefer the sequencer on it over the K. Haven't seriously poked a Korg workstation since the T/01/X family so can't speak to those.

I dunno, $1500 for a fairly sophisticated drum synth with sequencer, FX, velocity sensitive pads and patch recall seems pretty cheap. To put it into perspective the dancing bear is $1200.

Yea, it's not the same engine. I'm sure that it's built with similar DCOs but the voices are purpose built to the point that you can't load any drum "machine" on any voice. Each voice type has different parameters and is built for making that sound. A4 can't do FM, for instance, sample playback, the filter is a single multimode rather than a pair in series, FX are different including analog compressor and distortion, nevermind more than four voices obv. It's a neat little box. I've got an MD so I'm not that interested but I wouldn't mind poking one for a bit.

sliderule posted:It got me wondering about other controller keyboards in case I wanted to trade away the DX7. Are features like Floating Split and 8-way split/layer common? Not anymore they're not. Typically you'll 2-4 get zones, maybe layerable. Most controllers these days can't be split at all though, so double check specs when you're shopping. Floating, I doubt it, maybe the Midiboard did that, I can't think of anything else. They just assume you're going to plug in via usb and play a VST at a time now.

Also heads up for dudes wanting to dabble in iOS synths, the ipad mini is $100 off at Target right now, down to $199. Album from the AHNE meet. Octave Cat was probably my favorite mono that was there, I forgot how fun it is to play. Solaris was just sick, the 'pages' brought out to their own spots is an awesome idea, huge tonal variety. I guess it's kind of half-baked though, the owner said Bowen is still doing hardware redesigns, OS isn't complete, hell a display failed during the meet. Chroma and aptly-named Enabler made a re-appearance, always great. OBX was there but misbehaving, likewise a Multimoog didn't survive the car trip. I didn't get photos of some things, a pair of 303s, octatrack, polygamist, AX80, euro. I'm surprised how little modular showed compared to years past, and all of it euro. e- 100 off, not $100 Startyde fucked around with this message at 15:48 on Jun 9, 2014 |

There has been a WANTED:QY700 @ $400 ad on Kijiji since the beginning of March. The QY70 only has a single MIDI In/Out, so it's a bit less flexible. Also I really don't need the on-board sound, the on-board styles / accompaniment, the mini keyboard, or the portability. So it's a less than ideal option. The QY700 has got the problem of what samples are out there probably aren't going to change hands much. There are a lot more MC80s out there, but it'll eat MRC disks so maybe it has a similar problem. Don't forget to search for MC-80EX because it might not come up if wherever you're looking has a lovely search. It's the same but has the unfortunate sound card factory installed. e- Almost forgot, there's also the MV30 which is, iirc, more directly built on the MC500 with a U220/D70 bolted on. They seem to be going for very cheap, never had one. MrLonghair posted:If you want a the most powerful modern hardware sequencers it's MPC500, MPC1000, MPC2500, and JJOS where applicable. The timing is as tight as it should be, just a bit unwieldy and better off for those of us who record live. Definitely agree, even stock, MPC is tough to beat.

I'm drunk in between war thunder matches but without looking at the schems if it's like every other electret mic just run a 9v between ground and output with appropriate for the element current limiting resistor. That shure sure is fancy for doing such a thing. I used to make little mics out of the old rat shack element that was a buck back in the days. Like this. Then just plug phono in, or use a phono/xlr that's a lot easier to find/have kicking around.

It's the same for the lot of them— Kits->Patterns->Chains/Songs Kits are the only* thing that you can save/load yourself. Patterns are automatically saved after any change. Kits are tied to patterns and any changed saved will affect all patterns, since they're referencing the same kit. That joining is saved on load/save of a kit so what I usually do is just "load" a blank kit if I'm starting from scratch to prevent loving myself or immediately save to a new slot any cool tweaks if using an existing kit. MD is a little unique in that it has "Classic" mode that will continue using the same kit from the pattern you started with as you change patterns, like an old pre-set machine. This does not affect the actually married kit in those patterns. Tweaking a kit and then reloading it with [Function]+[Classic/Extended] only reads the kit again and doesn't affect the kit or the pattern. It is a unique patching structure but easy to work with once you get your head around it. The biggest thing is to save early and often, messing a kit up on accident is not hard. *The analog family machines also throw "sounds" into the mix. These are a separate patch object that can be loaded into a machine slot and safely tweaked/saved without affecting the saved "sound". They can be on/off-loaded from +drive and inter-project. Can't speak to song mode because I've never spent time on it, I think there's song slots on the MD not sure. NFC how samples are handled on that thing.
