Well they can't very well advertise they'll be ingesting fantastic amounts of quality chemicals and dancing all night and all day to pounding psychedelic trance and breaks now, can they? The flyer is euphamistic!

For some party people, the bar scene is just a tad unenlightened, the gallery scene a ...

Remove conflicting low frequencies in other tracks. i.e. Highpass EQ everything except your bassline and kick. Also, compress the bass.

but i must wonder -- why would analog bass be superior to digital? Low frequencies don't alias as badly as high frequencies; they have longer waves and therefore ...

How about comments on commercial pianos and electric pianos? I found the factory sounds in the Reason NN-XT to be pretty decent, triple strikes mostly. Does anyone use NI Elektrik Piano or Emagic EVP-88?

And who can recommend a good harware piano module. Have always lusted after the Nord Electro 2 ...

oh, and if your computer goes to sleep it loses its connection to the fw410, so you have to reboot. the Mac will only recognize the fw410 on bootup. i'll guess that's what "not hot-swappable" means.

Also, please keep in mind the fw410 has 4 analog ins but only 2 may be used at a time. Wonky OSX drivers, too, mine wouldn't recognize MIDI in.

sometimes it doesn't show up at first as a MIDI device, so I toggle its power and pow, there it is again. this happens in OSX.

Otherwise, the keyboard is a dream to play, can't wait till they come out with the 49 and 61 key versions. Only decent USB keys out there, imo.

Thanks for the fwendly reply, grover. So it sounds to you like I am doing this right? It should be so simple! Does it make sense that Live shows two "FireWire 410" MIDI devices? (OSX's Audio MIDI Setup also shows two.)

I do get MIDI indication in Live via USB (O8 and R25 controllers). But selecting ...

FW410 MIDI question

Off Topic: [/color] this question is about the fw410, not Live per se. I am running Live for OSX. (praises, for the record: live rocks, operator rocks.)

The goal here is to get more keys playing into live than there are on my USB Remote25. So I plug the MIDI OUT from a Korg Wavestation EX into ...

sequencing outboard midi gear

Okay, so this will be resolved with Live 4, and will strike many a novice and likely redundant question (if i would just read through the forums), but here goes:

I want to send sequences to my JUNO-106 and record the output back into Live. Have done similar by using Reason in Rewire slave mode ...
