Well now I'm curious, how is a vertically rackmounted QWERTY keyboard useful?

[ZoeB]

I like, as much as possible, to have dedicated controllers for a function... I don't like having to switch around... I hate menu surfing.

 

I couldn't agree more. The latest (OK, now second latest) addition to my studio:

It plugs into the Denon USB input for quick track/artist selection

 

not that I've used it in ages mind but it fills a gap

Built a studio desk/bought new soundcard and modular stuffs, thought I would update you gear-hungry folk

[Guest elliot]

^^Nice! what patch editor do you use with the matrix 1000? that synth drives me crazy with the buggy patch editors it almost seems not worth it :(

@new place, nothing fancy but it has everything I need.. I'm getting a harddisk for the sampler this week, the one that I have now makes more noise then my computer.

Nice little set up mate - its good to see folks still using samplers. I got an Akai S2000 but still haven't managed to integrate into my set up tho! :(

[foresense]

thanks man, yeah I like it a lot, it's a drag to fill it up with samples.. a choice between floppies, midi transfer or baking ISO 9660 discs (that's 8.3 filenames).. but once it's on the harddrive I can do some really cool stuff with it. and it's doubling as an aux effect as well.. works solid, and the reverb/n delays are nice.

why so many wires/big mixer? what do you have plugged into that thing?

Yeah the problem with my sampler is I don't really have any means of getting samples on it. I do have an old SCSI cd drive and I burnt a few ISOs onto it but the S2000 just wouldn't read em. I'm really looking for SCSI zip drive at a cheap price if I can find one. I just hate having kit that I just don't use.

the A5k has 10 outs and 2 ins, the microQ 6 outs, 2 ins.. and my soundcard has 4 outs / 4 ins.. and I got them all hooked up

the mixer has sweepable parametric EQ's, and it distorts very nicely when I'm overdriving the inputs. yeah happy with it.

you could try MIDI transfers, that's pretty much the slow standard that works. takes ages to upload stuff that way but it should just work.. just hook it up to your computer and try it with something like soundforge.

[ryancolecreate]

why don't you just straight sample into it? I assume it can record samples directly? You're bound to get some more interesting stuff that way anyways...

[foresense]

lol yeah and that, that's actually much faster then midi transfer

 

so used to dragging and dropping..

Yeah I can do that but I just need a means of storing the sounds. I don't currently have that save for floppy disks. I suppose I could go get a bunch of floppies. I might pick a few up next time I'm out of London.

This is where the magic happens these days. Excuse the shitty, shitty quality. My phone is running out of space, so it bumped me down to shit quality and I still haven't put a bulb that's worth a damn in my light.

^The MS-10 is awesome. If I ever have the money I'm going to buy another 3 or 4 of them. Or possibly something from the Korg PS series.
