Re: Aren't we due for a new Yamaha QY module?
I'm definitely not sure. I just know that quality DSP processing takes a LOT of CPU power and these portable devices don't have a lot of horsepower. Soft synths that run on PC's have to make a lot of compromises in order to avoid completely crushing the CPU. A synth workstation with a few dedicated...

Re: Aren't we due for a new Yamaha QY module?
The iPad doesn't have anywhere near the amount of DSP processing power to give the type of sounds like in a proper workstation like the Motif. I'm not sure if it could emulate the XG engine used the QY series, maybe. Are you sure about that StepLogik :| The Ipad has a 1GHz processor and a generous ...

Re: Aren't we due for a new Yamaha QY module?
I had a Yamaha QY70. I bought it in 1998. I think it was a revolutionary little machine when it was released. A 16 tracks compact sequencer with a sound engine, effects, and a very nice large screen. The GM sounds were good and the drum kits were excellent. I also liked the filter. It was until 2000...

Re: Midi Via USB
You can connect as many USB device as you want, your DAW softwares can all access them. Keep you Yamaha connected with it MIDI>USB cable, and connect the FATAR with its own USB port. Once you get your Tascam Audio/MIDI interface, you could connect them via its MIDI ports, if this is a more convenien...

Re: Multitimbral synths midi question
In your MIDI controller you can select the MIDI channel or use the OMNI mode (all channels affected). In the M-Audio Axiom it's the "CHAN" button. For other controllers just search the "MIDI CHANNEL" button. This feature rarely hidden since it used quite frequently. What set up do you have? With a l...

Re: Multitimbral synths midi question
Definitely.
In your DAW / Sequencer, just assign any controller to any MIDI parameter of any MIDI channel...
If you don't use a DAW you can still control channels separately. Most MIDI controllers can run in "ONE channel" only mode (instead of OMNI).

Re: Mastering and Possibly Mixing Question
I think the easiest way to find the right mastering engineer would be to check the credits of your favorite albums ;) But I wouldn't be so concerned about the style issue. If you give him guidelines, a good mastering engineer can probably work on any genre of music. Goth/Industrial is not mastered r...

Re: Korg and Roland -- old again
and the Ultranova, which somehow seems less than even a Nova. Maybe they should have called it the Mini-Nova, but that sounds like an album by a couple of overzexxed Russian teenage girls. Or the Mikro-Nova, since it's trying to do what someone else's Micro-something is doing. "Ultranova" fits perf...

Looks cool indeed, but it's just a USB controller. And a rather expensive one...Stab Frenzy wrote: Looks pretty cool to me, kind of like a more Electribe-y Maschine with more knobs. Sounds good too.

Re: Novation xio as sound module?
No. It won't work.
You cannot connect them with USB. You will need a computer to make them work together.

Re: Help with soundtrack sounds again
This a soundtrack by Simonetti / The Goblin (same guys who worked on Tenebre , Suspiria , P rofondo Rosso , etc...) It's from the 70ies, I doubt there is any sampling involved here. Besides the bass, guitar and drums, the instruments on this soundtrack must be: -A Mellotron for the typical tape choi...

Re: outboard reverb...which?
Unless you are looking for a specific vintage or low fi sound, you should always get the latest technology. Reverb algorithms always benefit from faster processors and high-end converters. Reverb is pure calculation. The more delays the processor can generate and filter, the better. The Lexicon PCM7...
