Hello, some of my songs are up at www.myspace.com/sunyatamusic if you fancy reviewing them.
Thank you!

I love flying, but after finding out the incredible environmental damage planes create I vowed never to fly again. Then came plans for me and my girl to move from the UK to Canada. I'm no hypocrite, so I looked into alternative methods and booked us a double room on a cargo ship! 11 days at sea on a...

Sorry! I was being an oaf! Sorted now!

Please good people, I have a bit of audio recorded into live at 170bpm, the actual tempo of it is around 120bpm. When I slide the tempo down it warps the clip! I've fiddled with the preferences and looked in the manual but to no avail! Very sorry to bother you with something so mundane but I ain't a...

Wow thanks for the responses guys... So does the JP8000 have a vocoder then? 's a Tough call, wish I could get both. I make lots of vocal-based music, I'm after boomy bass and ambient sounds. Have a listen to some older stuff if you fancy at www.myspace.com/sunyatamusic 'Perma' is probably the most ...

Well I had a play on the SH-201, the sounds were thin and some of the dial tweaks like cutoff sounded really jumpy, the guy in the shop said they had found them all to be like that, whoops Roland! So what software is good for vocoding then, as you mentioned? The vocals on the reason vocoder have to ...

Right, I have the option of buying either of these for roughly the same price. The MS2000 looks like a better option for vintage synth sounds and has a vocoder, while the JP8000 has some big fans, but doesn't appear to have a sine wave(?). Is it just a dance music synth?

So what do you think?

Sorry I mean the Roland SH-201.

Thanks guys,
Does anyone have any experience of the Roland SH-101, would it be a good alternative to the MS2000b? Starting to worry about it's polyphony.

Hmm, the ms200b is looking like the one, presumably with the arpeggiator I could hold down more than four keys?

Still like the look of the Juno but not sure which model to look at!
Thanks for the tips by the way! And has anyone ever used 'le synthé'? A sftware version of brian eno's!

Hmm, around £400?

Hey up, I've stored up some cash to squander on a synth. I'm happy with Operator but I'm going for a no-laptop live show, so considering either a juno or an ms2000. Can anyone give me any advice/a comparison please? I'm into wheezy, natural sounds, heavy bass, spacey pads. Not too much of a dance mu...

Hi, I make most of my music using vocals, drums and Live. I want to start playing a few gigs but would rather do so without a laptop (I often hear the non-musical saying that they're suspicious of laptop music, as the performer could just be pressing 'play' once for the whole gig, and also I'd like ...

Mostly for Operator, though a combination of audio effects would be great to play live guitar through, with tremolo in sync with the BPM. Has anyone heard the new Thom Yorke album? Thought it was a bit cold but liked the feeble decaying synths on 'Harrowdown Hill'. I've been trying to recreate those...

Anyone got any tips on making a nice tremolo with Live?


Huh?
