Seems like a pretty weak upgrade, but hpoefully it's enough to make the first versions cheaper :)
-
It could be cool to allow people to set their own intervals... I would be more in for a bi-weekly beats or something haha.
-
It would be fun to build a new weekly beats anyways :) I wrote the guy back in jan and he never responded. :p We could host it for really cheap on s3. I could build it in a week probably. I had ideas for improvements anyways as discoverability kinda sucked on there... Any takers?
-
agreed! I spend a good while chasing around an optimal setup with a patchbay, midi router etc, and in the end I just end up ripping shit out and reconfiguring things anyways :p

I think the horizontal thing is more likely to be a creative-person attribute. We creatives have tiny working memory, and it takes a lot more effort for us to categorize and organize than it does for more linear-minded people. For me, also I tend to be very associative in the moment, and seeing things will often trigger new ideas. If everything were to be perfectly organized in drawers, or whatever it would really be a hinderance in that process.

@audiobysk I'm totally in the same boat. I can't imagine the tedium of clicking out entire songs anymore. The prospects sounds awful. I used to do it and never minded it, but now... meh.
-
Just uploaded my first track. Looks like they publish it at the end of the week. We should make a watmm thread on their forum haha.
-
Cool I just signed up :) Are you the one running it? It doesn't way anywhere who is behind it :)
-
as far as the iMac goes, look at getting some synth editor like sounddiver. Then you can edit that 1010 :)
-
love it. Got anything to listen to form that setup? I actually find i produce a lot more things with simplicity like that.
-
I don't know. Honestly my productivity has suffered so badly in the past due to too much focus on sound design and not enough on composition and actually development of musical ideas, that I've almost removed mixing from my workflow completely haha. These days I perform all arrangement on the fly, and just record a stereo audio track out. Then simple EQing and maybe compression makes that into a final track. If it still doesn't sound decent then I just record it again. For me these days music has become extremely ephemeral, and I really lose interest in dumping hours and hours into polishing something that will be listened to by 4 people on the internet. Done and out there > perfect and rotting on a hard drive. I just see it all as process, and by making each output super precious it can really distort the pathways you're willing to explore.
-
I don't know why people get so hung up on monitors for production. Monitor position is important for mixing, but makes fuck all difference for writing and arranging music.

You're my hero Zoe. :)

Current setup in the synth cave. And yes that's floor trim propping up some machines. :D The ESX and QY70 actually make a great pair. You can use the pattern set triggers on the ESX to jam, while also using the pattern mode on the QY. The QY is fun but fiddly. I kind of like that right now though. I found out how to change the patterns on the QY remotely with sysex and I was so pumped. Shame the stoopid korg microkontrol can't send out sysex messages. That would be so awesome. Trigger patterns from the pads there or something.

Can't you record automation into renoise?

What's you guys opinion on the higher end hardware samplers like the s6000 with the detachable screen? I have still never found a softsampler that I like at all. Everything on the market is packaged with these shitty giant ass sample libraries that I will never use. I want the ability to hit record, sample something and assign it to a midi note in like 15-20 seconds. I have an electribe esx and sampling on that thing SUCKS. There are like 6 steps involved and every time I do it I have to get out the shitty manual. Bah. Software like kontakt is almost what I want, but I want it to be like 50% as complicated as it is. NI sucks at user interface. I go into rage mode everytime I touch something from them because it's so unintuitive.
-
say whaaaaa? Cool link Zoe!! Oh it could be much more than a rudimentary CCTV camera. :D It could tweet on motion detection, start recording on sensor input, call the cops etc. :D Actually, last year some piece of shit stole our jack-o-lantern on halloween (that me and my 2 year old son made together) so this year I am going to make another with a raspi + webcam + car horn alarm system to catch the bitch in action. Then I will plaster the neighborhood with his/her photo. >:)

wow that's great. I've got a basement room in our building. 3 locks on the door. :) I plan an arduino based security system once I can solve getting proper power in there. It's only like maybe 5 or 6m.
-
nice PSN. How big's the space inside? I would ask about how safe you feel with all your gear in there, but .... norway.
-
nice setup. I'm also about to switch up to a small desktop setup for a while. Just ordered a Shruthi-1 with the polivoks filter board. :D So it'll that, the Preen FM, electribe ESX all being run by numerology. I know I could sequence it all from the tribe, but numerology is just way more fun w/ the launchpad. The electribe's sequencer makes me feel really restricted. Can't switch patterns in the middle, can't mute midi outs, can't do polyrhythm stuff. I might sell it someday and put it towards some electron kit, but for now I'll keep it.
-
any love for the Dr. Groove? I had one and thought it was a toy. Maybe you've gotten some more juice from it than I did.
-
I would assume so hahah. I won't know!
-
ya I hate that. Reaper automatically copies files into your project directory which is handy, but before when I was using Logic that happened all the time. :p All it takes is reorganizing a sample folder and all your projects might be completely fucked.
-
oh I totally would. I'm constantly making alternate versions to try different ideas.
-
Also, everything on the windows command line sucks. ;0 Git will even work completely locally, so you don't even really need a remote repo, although that is better for data redundancy and that.
