Thats a good idea fumi, I'll have to try it, although it might tax my USB ports pretty hard, I'm using a PC notebook which means no stereo input and have to use a USB card for it too as well as my camera feed, but its worth a try. I've also have learned it totally does help to have some sort of an a...

I've learned there arn't any with input mic jacks. I looked at a bunch of new ones last weekend, and none are capable of that, just odd, such a simple feature you'd think a $300-900+ camera would have, but appearntly they don't. Well maybe there are some somewhere, I've been looking for a while now ...

You might like to get a keyboard controller too if your going to get a rack synth. No ideas for you on which or what kind you should get tho.

I kept my mc505 because it does do some original things no other unit can do and it is an under appreciated piece of gear I think too, but about 6 or 7 years ago I got an RS7000 after knowing the 505 pretty well for about 5 years, and to be frank the RS7000 kicked its a*s, and the asses of the other...

Cubase and a Windows machine working well at anytime

I am a bit with OpenGL. Unless you have 20+ years programming experience, then you might be better off with a program that already does most of that 3D stuff for you. You can get some pretty cool plug ins for WinAmp and maybe some not quite as cool ones for media player that will let you custom them...

Hows your foot switch input? Nothing like an 1/4" to 1/8" adapter stuck in it is there? Thats all I can think of of for now. I've just learned on some of my yamaha gear that those arn't good places to stick my spare adapters.

Please don't use egg cartons for accoustic treatment! Those things are flammable as h**l. Remember what happened to that club in Rhode Island. I've seen this phenomena happen inside my fridge, the egg cartons spontaniously combust under the pressure of pumping in too much deep bass. Anyway, headpho...

The AN1X supposed to tell you if your battery is low, displaying it on screen somewhere when it gets low, I've not seen it on mine, yet. No idea how hard it is to replace, but I can't forsee it being that tough, however the manual says backup data then send it in for service to replace it. As for th...

Anything for a CS15 as far as the the sliders and switches?

Yamaha CS2X and I'll +1 more for the Novation X-Stations.

That poor DX7S

thanks for the advice, some good thoughts in there, I'll have a play see what I can come up with... This bit confused me though Techno and trance don't use a regular kick I think for what your wanting I think, not like in an 808 or 909's which is more for DnB type styles, When it comes to techno. ....

I sequence with FL studio and Live.after I sequence the lp and let it sit for about 10 minutes. if i play notes on the lp they sound very quite.if i switch the patch it goes back to normal volume.Does anyone know what could be doing thi...
