renderful posted:From what I understand, the UI is Java. The About window in Bitwig shows the Java version, so I'd say it is required. That being said, the UI is very smooth in response and rendering. I've gotten three different answers on whether having more headroom in digital recording is good or not. I'm so confused. Mixing thread was like "uhh headroom doesn't matter in digital" but in the home recording thread it was recommended to record to -6dB

WAFFLEHOUND posted:I don't know how much crossover there is, but I've got some stuff up for sale on muffs, including a Euro case and a Monotribe. Maschine is about the software more than the controller. I start most of my tracks in Maschine as loops then use Ableton for arrangement, mixing, FX automation. Though I also do preliminary mixing and some FX in Maschine. It's easier to draw a filter cutoff envelope opening over 4 bars or whatever in Live than Maschine, seeing visual envelopes is nice. FX automation is based on quantized discrete values in Maschine as opposed to a continuous envelope like in Live, meaning you've got to specify the level at each step independently. I really like the new drum synths in Maschine 2.0.

Avalanche posted:What would be a better beginner synth option assuming money (no more than $600) isn't really an issue? The Korg MS20 Mini, or the Arturia Minibrute? You realize both of those are monophonic(only one note can be played at a time), yes? Just asking because you mentioned taking lessons -- you aren't going to be playing chords on either of those(unless you sample and layer).

Your Computer posted:The OP-1 seems neat and all, but I think the biggest negative thing to be said about it is the price. As far as I can see, it's not that expensive because it's a technical marvel, it's that expensive because it's halfway between a synth and a fashion accessory kinda like a lot of Apple products. In other words, a neat toy for rich hipsters. It's a technical marvel in the way Apple products are -- the screen on the OP-1 is absolutely beautiful. No one else has bothered putting a screen that nice in a groovebox type device. The fact that Teenage Engineering supplies new instruments via firmware updates is cool too. The size and weight of the device is surprisingly little for such a powerful machine. At the least, I hope it shows other manufacturers a direction they could be going in. I don't personally think I would buy one, after playing with a friend's for a while. I wound up getting the slightly more expensive Octatrack.

Your Computer posted:The Blofeld I bought from Your Dead Gay Son just arrived. This thing's awesome! I've heard it's easy to program, but I wasn't expecting it to be this easy. Going to have tons of fun with it The irony here is that programming a Blofeld is about the same as programming a MicroKorg which people say is hard

WAFFLEHOUND posted:I actually got Animoog when it was on sale for like five bucks, it's a fantastic synth and I keep getting tempted to see if I could control it through Live and bounce the audio. I'm actually more looking into composition apps than synths though. I'll take a look into the suggestions as well as the other thread, thanks. BeatMaker 2 when it's on sale for $5. Pretty awesome overall. It's similar to the Maschine software, I would say. Has MIDI and AudioBus/audio capture support(I think they've added it natively now?). Plenty of built in sound packs, and they update the software still.

sliderule posted:Gotta be honest, half of the reason I'm rompler hunting is for pizzicato and tremolo strings. I can't believe how hard it is to find a decent unit at a reasonable price, though. 80s Rolands, 90s Yamahas can be had fairly cheap!

The paraphonic features on the Pro 2 are pretty sweet, do other mono synths have that?

renderful posted:Cool stuff thanks. Sup fellow Ruby buddy. I'm currently writing distributed systems using Celluloid and JRuby, fun stuff! How many programmers are in here? I recently moved to security research but was a developer for 9 years. Perl, PHP, and Python primarily. I would definitely be interested in seeing the Max thread come back as a general programmatic music thread. The posters there helped me stumble through my noob problems learning the basics of PD.

How do you send bank changes from an Octatrack to a Blofeld? The program change knob works but not the bank change. I also tried assigning knobs to midi cc 0 and 32, no luck!

Startyde posted:MnM here, should be similar because elektron doesn't change much. MSB(0) works save it won't choose bank A for whatever reason. LSB(32) works as expected. This is both sending the changes immediately as well as plocking them to trigless trigs and hitting play. Thanks... On the Octatrack, you can assign knobs to MIDI CCs on a MIDI track's "ctrl 1/2" pages. I am controlling the Blofeld and can send some MIDI CCs -- like i can assign pitch bend or freq cutoff or volume no problem -- but CC 0 and 32 don't seem to do anything for me. And I'm running 1.16b2 :/ If I wanted to select patch H128, what should I expect? CC0 7 and CC32 127? That does nothing Edit: oh, you have to click the bank knob then the program knob, and they can't be sent independently of each other. Got it now. Weird you can't select bank A tho ashgromnies fucked around with this message at 02:56 on Feb 5, 2015 |
