excelent! glad i could help - actually, this discussion rekindled my old interest in jupiters. and, now you know you like both sounds!

Have:
access Virus ti 1 keyboard (absolutely mint...i have a little brush for it for when it gets dusty...i bought it new)

want:
Jupiter 6
tr-808

:lol: I love it when these discussions turn to expression as some sort of judgment scale for the value of an instrument. As if expression is everyone's goal or something. What else do you do with a musical instrument apart from use it to express musical ideas? 1. you don't want to know what else i d...

Thank you for that very persuasive argument! And thank you for this little creative tip! i use mine to write sequences on the juno 60 and then timestretch the samples to match w/e bpm i'm working with. sounds awesome because it lets you hear the cool juno-60 sound and a little character from the sa...

get the juno60. 1. you have a jsq-60 already 2. you know what it sounds like, you've played it, you liked playing it, and you like the sound. 3. the juno is cheaper 4. if you get bored and want to sell it you can get your money back and buy a jupiter 6. it's all too easy to read up on what you want ...

Synths used to be about making the sounds we'd hear in the future, now it's all about being retro. The sad truth of it was that synths were popularized by people looking to the past and prog-rockers long before anyone got popular for using them to portray the future. Sadder yet is that everything a...

still no time stretch feature, but now you can host vsts! there's more stuff as well, and it looks slightly different. the capabilities if maschine have been massively increasing since it came out... keep it up NI!

Bought a sequential circuits drumtraks from samuraipizzacat29: awesome seller, great transaction. totally helpful with all information about the drumtraks, and very honest as far as condition and pricing is concerned. i would certianly buy from him again with confidence!

yes, and it can export a whole track, which is pretty sweet. maschine is excelent for chopping samples, and has a magnificent detect mode. ONE thing however, is that it lacks timestretch to the best of my knowledge. pitching just isn't the same. time stretching your samples will msot likely solve yo...

Are there any VSTs that do a good job of emulating Roland's Jupiter 8? I am aware of Arturia, but Arturia has a bad reputation of recycling oscillators and lag issues. I personally really like the Arturia version. I haven't had any problems with lag issues when using it though, but I guess that doe...

great thread!

I have an intro to keyboard-ing book that's kinda like that, it explains the basic traditional keyboard techniques/rhythms/melodies in blues, jazz, rock, and some latin music among other things. As far as a book that's solely explaining different genres, personally i'd rather get that information f...

"Yes, I have the Legacy Collection...I'd bid on it if I didn't already have the software version. .... ..No software synthesizer will ever sound exactly like its analogue counterpart. "Better" is in the hands of the player." I didn't read what was in-between (too tedious), but it sounds like the so...

does everything work?

That leads me to believe you're saying: If you're into Electronic Music then your instrument becomes part of your connection. If you really feel that connection, you'll choose certain instruments for certain reasons. Those certain reasons are why one would choose the analog MS-20 over a software em...
