CHEEP HARDWARE - Various Experiments

[cheep_hardware]

Hello,

I'm in a bit of a period where lots of experiments over the years are getting fairly congealed. Figured I'd post a few things. 

First a test from today after getting my devices all going properly via MIDI, and having it all either controlled by my Yamaha Q70 or Ableton, without having to switch anything. Also have everything applicable running into a USB 3 hub to allow for patches/samples to be interchanged at will:
 

 

Also a few various older tests of all kinds of wide variety:

And a list of 50+ hardware test jams from a few years back:

If anyone wants, be glad to talk about any of it, or about setup...my thing (out of necessity, but also interest) is old, weird cheap gear. So any questions about MIDI, interfacing w/DAWs, etc. be glad to talk about. 

I do realize there are a million threads as well. But hey, just reach out if ya want.

Oh, I guess here's some other way older stuff from 10 years ago or so, 'beats' i suppose.

That test track is really cool. What is your approach to drum programming? I really like the style, I think I detect a bit of swing in there too. Do you record back into the DAW when you are sequencing? I'm moving into a DAW hybrid sort of approach which is why I ask.
