I use a Roland D2 as extended drummachine, or I build custom kits in Live with samples. I really prefer hardware programming. I'm also looking for a new drummachine, more easy to program, with a grid like the boss series or TR-style. I have an opportunity for a TR707 but I dont find it very suitable...

yes, Ableton Live is a fantastic flexible tool to do your recordings.

yes, it's a digital encoder, not a pot.

thanks for the info

Hi,

the Data wheel on my Roland D2 is starting to wobble when it is turned, and gets less and less precise in its functioning.
Is there a technique to repair data wheels?

thank you

like you, after getting bored of fruityloops, I bought my first hardware machine, a D2, and happily used it as standalone for a few years before upgrading my gearlist. I think grooveboxes are a good start, and the 505 is a good machine. If you are a total newbie, I would suggest you not to bother to...

I have a Roland D2, which have the same sound engine as the MC505. the difference between the 2 models is mostly the interface. You get a large variety of sounds for all styles - from realistic drums and percs to TR-style, CR blips. classical instruments - good pianos, eps, organs, as well as a very...

I like fairytales, finding a 5$ synth that has a special mark making it a rare item worth thousands.... sometimes I also dream of finding a Mimimoog in a rubbish can down the street, but I always wake up. anyway, an educated japanese (if he speaks english, it means he's educated) would never use ter...

being teenage in the 80s with the uprising of synths in music, playing way too much on my C64 and melting my brain to the demos tunes. Remember the music of 'Last Ninja'?
Rob Hubbard rules!

- the sound of slowly moving in calm water
- the riff in "could you be loved" by Bob Marley
- Moog leads
- a mellow natural kick drum
- the 'pop' sound of opening a wine bottle
- the synth pad starting the opening of "blade runner"
- the swoosh of Tie fighters in starwars

the Arturia Minimoog is cool, you need a powerful pc though, on mine it lags so badly i dumped it.

in software synths check also :
Native Instruments Pro 53 (prophet emulation),
ImpOscar (really cool and funky sound),
Korg legacy collection got a nice MS20 emu
Novation Bass station

thanks for the info

looks like a new world for me!

synth: FM7, Korg legacy wavestation, lounge lizard (I love those sounds you get by drenching it in wahwah and reverb) sequencer: live 5 sampler: I prepare my samples in Audacity and fiddle them in Live, I'm not a sample expert audio fx: the ones in Live, I'm not into fx too much though... no filters...

I had a SK1, a commodore c64, a blues harmonica, a sh-t hondo guitar I borrowed with a chorus pedal and a crackling amp. sometimes I would borrow a psr or some yamaha drumpads from a friend. I recorded reggae and punk songs with friends on the mic input af my stereo using walkman headphones. I start...
