well i should include that in my contract too then!

I have played many shows in the states and a few abroad... I have developed a tech/hospitality rider and a contract for the promoter to sign, the contract dictates what deposit, usually half, must be paid before we go onstage.... And on the tech rider I give detailed specs of everything I am expect...

But if you have a great time, get some experience and new contacts, and still at least break even, I'd say it was a successful night :) Thanks for the responses. I mean, I have fun playing and all, but I try to get paid for it - and I try to set a standard locally that DJs will get what their worth...

I have some opportunities to play at cities both here (in the states) and abroad. I'm wondering what people usually do to make sure everything's legit with the promoter, getting paid, etc. Do you ask for a down payment? Do you leave accomodations up to the promoter or do you include that in your fee...

Is it illegal to sample a hardware synth's presets and RESELL them digitally?

Wavearts vs. OZONE

Opinions please?

yep, that certainly fixed it!

thanks subterfuse, you da man!

I just hooked my new Dell flatscreen up to my powerbook's DVI connector. Now, coming through my speakers is this not-so-loud, but annoying digital noise (like whenever the hard drive works). To say the least, IT"S F&CKING ANNOYING!! 8O Does anyone know anything about this, what the problem ...

ok, cool. thanks. I've managed to reverse engineer some of them. i'll check the automappings for more info.

thanks, but that just covers automapping - not the mackie control protocol

unless i missed something?

Does anybody know if the mackie control specs/mappings are written down anywhere for Live. I want to assign my controller to them, but I cannot figure out what messages to send for particular functions. Can anyone help me?

So does anyone know where the Bitstream IS available. A few people apparently have one, so where'd ya get it huh?

found this on the same page http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8VL1TVwjW0

Anybody know of a way to change tempo, without loosing a clip's SMPTE position?

I have warping off, but I want to lock some audio to a certain SMPTE start time and be able to change the tempo.

Is there a way to create a time signature change in Live? Like 4/4 to 7/8?
