Hey--sorry I don't make it by here much, but I have been using Scope 4.5 and A-16 Ultra for years. I think it's great. I pair it with Cubase 3 and Reason 4, which makes a kick-ass solo recording environment. I take the A-16 in by lightpipe and clock the system with an Apogee Mini-Me via AES/EBU, rec...

Thanks for the info fellas. I did order a MBP 2.4 refurb, only now I'm wondering if I should return it and wait a bit for the new model. I've always had luck going one generation back on computer tech though. . . Does anyone have inside info on what the 3Q update will offer? I know it's mostly vapor...

I'm in the market for a new recording laptop and gonna go Apple refurb again w/ Applecare. Curious to hear opinions on what the sweet spot is for Mac Book Pro processor size vs. cost--2.33/2.4/2.5. I'm looking at the 15" models. I'm usually running Cubase 3 and Reason 4 simultaneously, and rarely re...

Just want to chime in here as a user, the VFM pres are pretty awesome for heavy color and this sort of explosive fuzziness. Kick, floor tom, bass, etc are killer. Sweepable mids on some channels rocks too. Recommended-

Got it, I'll start looking at the 2-piece deal. I do have some various things lying around--SR-16, 606 (unmodded unfortunately), a 505 I think, I forget what all is in the shadows. Butt perhaps trigger-to-midi is where it's at.

Yeah, sorry that is pretty self evident about the loop mode--I meant that a module like one of the Alesis DM rack units would not work b/c I need the machine function. And yes, actual triggers, the ddrum acoustic ones in this case. The V-drum series is what I'm leaning toward that may do most of wha...

Hey dudes, been a long time, hope all is well. I need a drum machine that offers the following, to be used in a live context. . .anything specific come to mind? -good sounds, obviously. Just interesting and with character, no specifics really. Samples ok but I've always thought samplers to be too fu...

have one, would like to find another good one for stereo synths. cheers, j

Did you get my pm?

Wait a minute, these XP-30s, they suck! Why would you want an XP-30?

3 emails, 3 phone calls since last Thursday. Zero response.

Lame as hell.

Excellent. Thanks dudes, I'll call this morning.

Anyone have a contact phone number for Electro Harmonix tech support? I had a piece of gear quite literally blow up on Thursday and all I could find on the web was their lame "info@" email. No response yet. . .

I use one and I believe it's by NHT Pro, got it for around $75--XLR in/out, one volume knob. Check it out. . .

From a couple posts up: I've heard that that the World Max stuff is pretty sweet. I have a Pork Pie Big Black which I believe is quite similar, and it compares favorably to my 60s Ludwig Supersensitive (like Supraphonic, but with the longer snares--a bit finicky but fairly kickass when it's dialed i...
