  1. That would explain the hiss they all have. yes i forgot that hiss can only come from analogue tape and not from hundreds of pieces of antiquated analogue gear aphex twin has in his studio i love how the website has all this stuff that isn't available on physical format yet, labels should do this more often. Especially one like Rephlex where they don't really have to worry about making sure they promote a record too hard, so they don't have to coordinate the ad campaign with the phyiscal release date edit: also awesome they list the BPM on every track, more dance centric people should do this. Yarhar, why be such a dick? =\ im sorry if i was dickish, im just curious being the nerd audio engineer that i am i can't think of any other reason why they would be in 48khz unless they were originally recorded that way. And it could very well be that he did record them onto tape and then transfer them to a DAT or protools or something 1/2" tape can record higher quality than 48khz and I'm sure Richard just picked 48khz as a good number when he recorded them into his computer. I would assume he either shipped, or hand delivered the master tapes to the vinyl pressing plant and they were returned or stored somewhere safe afterward. Rich has well beyond the means to have a nice 1/2" setup with a good console to accommodate.
  2. Can't wait for the downer next month :p Yeah I was sitting here reading sound on sound with cubase open trying to make something useful of my time off and was totally feeling blah. Now I feel quite energized and excited a bit.
  3. well, yeah you're spot on, but in the price range they feel great compared to other stuff. At least the keys are a decent size. It's noisy as hell too. The keys are just clunkity and annoy me when my friend and I are working on stuff.
  4. my friend has an axiom. They feel great and the knobs, wheels, and sliders are good but the pads are quite lame imo. Too rigid.
  5. Well what happened was: I was going to buy it from my friend. So he let me go ahead and have it (while just paying when i had extra cash) since we've known each other forever and i gave him like 100 bucks on it at the get go. I was super psyched and loving it and it was all gravy. Then about a month later i went to give him another 50 and he's like "let me sell it so i can buy addictive drums and i'll give you my extra AD license to you". I couldn't really refuse that offer b/c addictive drums is best (acoustic) drum program I've ever used. He also gave me my 100 bucks back b/c he solditfor100 more than he was selling it to me :) I will say this though. He got the NM in, errr....around 2000. I played with it everytime i was over at hisplace, and everytime we did a song together i requested being ableto use it, which i did and it was out of this world. However as the years have gone on and the g2 free software came out, going "back" to the g1 seemed kind of stale and i was missing a LOT of the features I've gotten used to in the g2 demo. Plus as silly as it seems, not having a good delay suddenly made a HUGE difference. I know its not hard to add a delay to the chain but there's just something about having it there in the signal chain, esp. the mod delays. So I wasn't that upset about it, except that I knew i wouldn't be able to afford a g2 any time soon. However I've just gotten a new job with an actual decent pay, full time...so if i'mvery careful with my money I should be able to get one in a few months. It's still my number one synth priority. I get lusty for other stuff, especially some of the dsi stuff, elektron, etc but I always go back to saying "but I have to buy a g2 first". I went to the guitar center in atlanta when i was there to see family about 3 years ago..maybe more. I spent 2 full hours in the store, even asked the guy if he could hook it up to a laptop which he did (store was dead...day before thanksgiving i think). I sat there forever and it was set in stone from first hand experience that it is indeed a badass synth. And I didn't even get to process audio/vocals with it! I loved my NL 1 but when i got the waldorf xt i felt, for the time, pretty covered in the va area (was starting to get some vsts and have always had vaz modular since 99 or pretty much the yearit came out). However i really just miss the interface. I mean the sound is great too, that classic nord sound, plus the unison on the nl1 is much different (in a good way) than the 2, 3, and imo nm. But anyway, nl 1 is kinda limited. BUt the g2 (or g2x if i can FIND one) is part of that set up that i like, and it's not hard to build a nl 1 in the editor. /sini post edit: sorry for some jumbled up words, my niece ripped my space bar off my laptop and it hasn't been the same since :(
  6. yeah...this is my actual setup pretty much I miss all of my hardware. I regret selling all of it now. In this pic there should be a: Akai s2000 sampler w/ zip, Yamaha tx802, Clavia Nord Lead 1, Waldorf Microwave xt, Korg Es-1, Korg ESX-1, Nord Modular g1, and all the circuit bent stuff I made that i just threw away b/c i was sick of it being a mess of cables and falling apart all the time. Use your imaginations plz. It's pretty lol that out of all that stuff the only thing that survived is my Casio cz-1. Oh I had a dave smith evolver too which sounded amazingly fantastic, but I don't regret selling it b/c the interface drove me mad and the software editor was laggy as hell and was a horrible waste of 50 frickin dollars.
  7. I meant to say i'm (imaginatively) behind the ORANGE 2600. Srsly do you really need 2 2600's and A 2500. Jelly.
  8. i'm behind the arp 2600 (lol)

  16. Count me in. I'm very excited about this. I'm a huge fan of Spectrasonics stuff. Stylus is the jam. But this looks to be very promising. Supposedly out sept of this year. PS- Acid1 I once saw a framed piece of blotter (the whole sheet) of that exact pic from your avatar. I really wanted to buy it but it was $150 b/c it was signed by Timothy Leary which I didn't really care about. Awesome artwork. Actually I just looked online and I guess you can buy it for 45 bucks, one of the originals. May have to do that one day.
