i have a keyboard, connected to a motu fastline usb interface. i used to use it earlier and it worked perfectly. then i disconnected it all and stopped using for awhile. i've today connected it again. the computer recognises the motu usb connection, but asks for drivers, despite the fact i never uninstalled or moved anything, and ive tried reinstalling and its still not working. can anyone help? im not even sure if this is the right place to ask, so if someone could redirect me or osmething. cheers

Hi all, found an odd pokey little music shop the other day with one of these babies for sale. Is it a good price? Anyone got any experience with these things? Sounds like a great deal to me, thinking about going after work and snapping it up. It looks lush, I'm def going to try it out tonight at least :) Some pictures of one (not the one I might be buying) are here http://www.fantasyjackpalance.com/fjp/soun...jen-sx1000.html Thanks :)

it seems like amazing music production is all about doing something difficult and time consuming to an extreme (but finding a workflow that works so that it is not so difficult after a while). For example, in aphex twin's "To Cure A Weakling Child (Contour Regard) " there is a ridiculous amount of short well placed delay effects one after another (and ring modulators and comb filters, etc.) . I have never been able to carry though with something like that throughout a song. I doubt this is done in realtime (mostly because of all of the reverses and stretches thorought, but who knows). Anyways, how do you personally create the convenience and workflow to be able to do…

How to process breaks so they sound beefy
by Guest The Bro- 23 replies
- 1.6k views
I'm not that good at processing breaks so they sound beefy. Often they end up sounding a bit nasty on the ears where as I want to be able to make beats so they have a nice fat tone but don't hurt the ears at loud volumes. How do u turn a weedy sounding break into a fat sounding break which just has muscle to it with it sounding harsh on the ears. Hope I make sense. Cheers.

So, I'm getting a bit fed up with my M-Audio Delta. Let me be clear, it's in no way dissapointed me. Right now, it's doing 24bit/96khz @ 5.3ms latency and is going rock solid. The problem is that it only has 4 inputs, and I have 3 synths plus microphone, so you can see where this goes. Right now I just have everything going into a shit Behringer mixer then into the soundcard on two channels, which works, but means that applying effects is an all or nothing deal. So I'm on my quest for a soundcard with lots of inputs, don't care about multi outputs. I would prefer to stay at 24bit/96khz if possible. Why can't there be a card on the market that just has a shit-to…

e-mu esi 32-should i get it?
by Guest eatanter- 1 reply
- 594 views
wanna buy me a sampler, and they're having this e-mu esi 32 at a shop around the corner, used, for 100€s. anyone here ever used this thing? can anyone tell me about drawbacks and what makes this machine good, and what makes it bad? and if the price is appropriate? would be my first hardware-sampler, but i'm not shy of spending a night with a manual, i like things to have a lot of features, but they still should be available quickly, not by endlessly navigating through menus. i don't really know what to think, as i mostly just like using and toying around with equipment the way it was designed, but i don't want it to cause too much headache, either. any experienced…

home-made Patch Panel
by Guest dugbert- 15 replies
- 2.1k views
I want to have every in/out from every instrument and all channel inserts/aux sends from my mixers all gathered in one central location for insane patching/routing/feedback possibilities. So I think all I'm going to need is: - 2-3u steel plate for the rack - 50-100 female-female 1/4" jacks to mount on the panel - a lot of patch cables - possibly a special drill bit for cutting the holes (unless the panel ends up being made of something softer) any ideas on places to order all this shit from? it might be best to get a big bag of 1/4" jacks locally if i can find them at an electronics shop i'm really curious about the rack panel though, are the…
