<r>man....yeah, i've had my issues with UPS as well.<br/> <br/> i bought a nearly brand new DJ board from this guy on ebay for about 40% of what it costs retail. He shipped it UPS, with insurance, but we could only insure it for the amount that I paid for it....which i personally feel is kind of out...

<r>my biggest beef with my x6 is that the pads are pretty inconsistent in terms of being able to use them for drumming.<br/> <br/> they hit at inconsistent levels and are a pain in the ass to use when I'm trying intricate 1/32 scale patterns. <br/> <br/> graded against the quality of the mpc2000xl, ...

<r>I agree with stanley, I have a pair of sennheisers that I got on sale from musician's friend for 100 and they are AMAZING....and I saw puffy using them on a TV show as well on BET so I'm super sold on them.<br/> <br/> Huge bass and crispy crispy highs.....and they're good for recording vocals bec...

<r>if you're only storing midi information, you will be able to store hundereds if not a couple thousand song files with a 512<br/> <br/> I was able to fit about a hundred or so song files with only midi on my user memory and that was along with storing some wav samples on the user memory as well.<b...

<r>man....If we start doing the damn thing, I'm going to put you on staff.<br/> <br/> I need a good synth engineer plus someone with good connections in europe. <br/> <br/> And also if you know anybody with at least a couple songs that fit the type we're looking for and also have other music that th...

<r>What's up everybody....it's been a second since I've been on here.<br/> <br/> I wanted to get at you guys about an opportunity for some of you. <br/> <br/> I've been tabbed by a former boss to be the music director for a new website based out of Chicago, IL. We're going to be selling various prod...

<r>Anyboy know where I can get OS 2 for the lows?<br/> <br/> Thank you<br/> <br/> Smoke Club!<br/> <URL url="http://www.myspace.com/smokeclubmusic">www.myspace.com/smokeclubmusic</URL><br/> <URL url="http://www.soundclick.com/bands/6/smokeclub">www.soundclick.com/bands/6/smokeclub</URL><br/> <URL ur...

<r>yeah, I tried just taking the midi connection off and it seems to have worked for the time being.<br/> <br/> Thank you very much.<br/> <br/> Smoke Club!<br/> <URL url="http://www.myspace.com/smokeclubmusic">www.myspace.com/smokeclubmusic</URL><br/> <URL url="http://www.soundclick.com/bands/6/smok...

<r>Trizzax:<br/> <br/> Where are your mpc drum sounds coming from the MPC or are they coming from the fantom?<br/> <br/> Umbrellah<br/> <br/> If you set the MPC up as the master you should be able to resample on the fantom, keep it saved on the fantom, and then be able to initialize it through the M...

<r>and you can save the new drum kick as a patch if you want. If you synthesize a drum sound, you're basically using sound material that's already in the board so all the sample data is there, you've just tweaked the parameters. <br/> <br/> Personally, I haven't done this. I haven't gotten into synt...

<r>and you can make the song just about as long as you want it too.<br/> <br/> I make songs that are 4-5 minutes all the time on the sequencer. you can go much longer than that too. You could seriously score a symphonic piece on the board.<br/> <br/> Smoke Club!<br/> <URL url="http://www.myspace.com...

<r>not to sound like a dick, but you hit the record button and start playing the notes.<br/> <br/> *make sure you're in performance mode and not patch mode though.* Otherwise, you'll run into patch assignment problems when you expand on your composition.<br/> <br/> Smoke Club!<br/> <URL url="http://...

<r>you mean the MPC compared to the fantom?<br/> <br/> I like the fantom's a bit more, but granted, I've used the fantom much more than I used the MPC 2000XL.<br/> <br/> I will say this though...for playing drums.....use the MPC....fuck the pads on the fantom....in my opnion, they kind of suck, espe...

<r>midi data is way smaller than wav files.....which is what I think you mean by resampling.<br/> <br/> Look at it like this.......lets say you have a sample that says "Smoke Club is the hottest group ever"<br/> <br/> in audio terms, that sample is a few seconds long so lets estimate it at about 1MB...

<r>that 400 is a fraction of a bar....not the actual bar itself. <br/> <br/> there are 500 units inside each bar. if you have it set at 400, then the note will cut off just a little bit after the third beat of the bar. <br/> <br/> If you want the sound to stop at the end of the 16th bar, you need to...
