CD-Rom Drive & Akai S-Series
@ BeatOff. I saw some display on ebay the other day. Friend of mine fixed his mpc´s display last year. He bought it from a German company. There is 1 more company that sells displays for Akai samplers. It´s in England. They charge 30-40 Euros which is about the same in dollars. hit me back if... -

CD-Rom Drive & Akai S-Series
i was just wondering wether the akai´s scsi interface can deal with a 40x speed drive, because by the time they were made, 4x was state of the art and i don´t exist scsi2 was out back then. I guess I´ll just see how things work out. Thanks anyways -
midi sync
let me just jump in. i have a related question. is the same stuff also possible with fruityloops and cooledit? i use fruityloops to trigger my my outboard sampler and it gets tricky if i want to export every sample as a single track. For recording my sampler´s audio it gets difficult due to... -
CD-Rom Drive & Akai S-Series
I´ve been working with the akai s2000 for a couple of months so far and been pretty happy with it. The only thing that sucked, was that it only has one output and the optional extension board is very expensive. So I sold my s2000 for quite a good price on ebay and got an cd3000 (Akai S3000... -
problems with fruityloops and midi
reason comes with a asio driver for the creative labs soundblaster. since lots of soundcards are compatible with this chipset, you can get your old card going with decent latency. That´s the way I got my old noname laptop soundcard working with most of the programs. But a new soundcard should... -
Good software Synth
wow. thanks for your answers. I think I´ll finally have some clue on what the market offers. I think I´ll download several demo versions and then finally decide. I´ve been doing mostly beats based on analogue instruments (samples + own creations). But a couple of days ago I played around... -
Good software Synth
thanks for your answers. since i´m new to synthesizers i would like to start with a plain and simple one. too many knobs and features can be a hidrance if you start out. i just need one with the basic features. later on i want to move on to a more complex system and go into deepth. so... -
Good software Synth
Hi you all! Are there any good software synths out there? I´d like to use it as a vsti oder dxi. any ideas? please let me know -
Are you serious?
i do it for the love of it. there´ll be some album coming out this year where i did half the beats on a record label. it might bring some money, but not enough to pay off the hardware i bought so far. For me it is about making music, expressing feelings, performing live and having others hear... -

i use only pc's 2 make beats
dj shadow compiled one of his albums using an mpc60 which is known for having very limited memory. He used tons of samples and found a way to express his ideas even though back then mpc did not come with 128 mb ram and had no zip drives etc. It´s not about how you do certain things but what you... -
MPC pad controller for computers
thanx for the info, but all i need is 1 i/o and a midiinterface. The audiophile sounds good to me and I think it fits my needs. I´m quite shure though that I won´t ever need the optical and digital ports at all, but I guess nowadays this feature is a must. It´s a bummer though cuz it makes the... -
MPC pad controller for computers
I´m planing to get the audiophile interface. is there anything comparable out there? I want an USB or firewire audio and midi interface that I can hook up with my computer and later on use with my laptop (it´ll take a while though). Recommandations and tips welcome! -
Yamaha RS-7000
What do you think about the RS-7000? I played around with one of these babies and have to admit that they are pretty nice. I like it better than the mpc and think that this is quite an alternative for those who don´t want an mpc and don´t like using a computer. -
What softwares do you use
i´ve been using cool edit for quite a while now and still like it. the reason is simple: i started out with cool edit and so i´m familiar with it, know about the shortcuts and can work without having to figure out how certain things can be done. I use it for recording and editing vocals /... -
Controlling the outboard
I would like to use FruityLoops for controlling my outboard. The step sequencer is finally communicating with my sampler, but it will trigger the tones with out releasing them. Depending on the sample loaded it can be pretty nasty (like a string sounding for 5 seconds). I finally ended up... -
Fruityloops
hi together. i´ve been working with fruity loops for quite a while now and need to say that i still like it. even though options for creating own melodies or controlling your outboard are very limited, it is very flexible and you can do a lot with it, just by experimenting. anyways, some of you... -
