that looks funny...
It should've said:
now I'm into Live again

I'm kinda like one those fans that was down with a band when they were local/indie and doesnt feel them so much anymore when they go pop then gets back into them again

I've been using live since the 1 days...
It was my main host for about 2 years
I kinda got burnt out on the Live/Reason combo ...

yeah I stiil use my E-64
and I'll probably buy a 6400 at some point

I sold my ASR a while back... I can always borrow one when I really need one
but I've found I can get most of what I get out of an ASR out of Stylus RMX

I'm run Mac though otherwise I'd've bought the EMU card
I've heard mixed ...

my tips...

remember Stylus uses REX files... you can put other stuff in it and use the effects

go back and check the original Stylus if you have it... there are alot of one-shot sounds I couldn't find in RMX there
and also you can use it wrong -playing the Groove Control stuff on the wrong keys ...

Seeing as he is 'widely regarded as the best guitarist ever' when Fripp could kick his arse in any discipline with both hands tied behind his back and blindfolded, I'd say he's overrated, yes.


Paws, sup? How you been?
I haven't posted in months... but you drew me out of ...

the Jomox has the best 808/909 bass drum, period

the microtonic does some things better the XBase and some things not as well
but the Jomox wins the fattness contest

I'm always amazed no one seems to know the the US Circuit Court ( i believe, anyway whichever one is one below the Supreme Court) ruled you have to pay for ALL samples, recognizable or not. Snares, whatever.
use sample CD's and/or ROMplers

which brings up an issue. did propellerheads license the ...

drush asked:

why would you use them both (original Stylus & RMX)? the entire original Stylus soundbank is included with RMX and RMX sounds a lot better.

true, but:
1) all the one-shots from the Original Stylus arent filed in the RMX insruments
sections
(my favorite snare/clap combos ...

I have Stylus and Stylus RMX and use them both
if you want drums based off the current sound of hip-hop/ r&b drums its perfect
it also has great effects and imports rex files
If you want 80's drum machines or breakbeats you'll need to get them
elsewhere

BPM 120 looks interesting seems like ...

your catergories would need to be altered for me

alot of people I know wouldn't dance to the music you called dance music

in NYC hip-hop is the major dance music, followed closely by dancehall reggae
and its offshoot reggaeton
then you have the various other Carribean musics
followed by ...

you can do it with BIAS Peak

also the E-mu samplers had a function called Transform Multiplication
maybe the PCI cards have it too?

I "borrowed" it

I have to respectfully comment

on one issue...
imo "jamming" is not something you do by yourself
its a "we" thing, not an "I" thing

it requires interaction with other people

usually with other musicans
but I would say a DJ who responds well to his crowd jams
and you can jam with visual artists ...

I use live the way you're going to...
its pretty straightforward conceptually
make a scene for each section, trigger

you need to know:
1) you cant have 2 songs open at once, so if you have songs that go back to back you have to put them in 1 song
which can mean alot of scenes to trigger
2) your ...
