Anybody know of any decent gear/audio equipment blogs out there?

I was wondering how people are getting their tracks out there on the digital marketplace. Are you using e-distribution services or contacting online stores (like iTunes) directly?

Any other methods?

I was wondering if there's a good way to sequence the Machinedrum from the Monomachine's Midi Seq. Is it maybe better to just slave the MD to the MM and use the MD's sequencer?

****OPINION ONLY**** i owned a lemur and I have a solid live performance schedule. it's is an amazingly innovative instrument by a very forward-thinking company - HOWEVER - it is a bit overkill. it's a very "trendy" piece of gear right now and a lot of people want them, but I say save your...

Do Waves Plugs work at all with MacBook? Looked on the waves site etc. but the info provided is SO ambiguous.

I know this has been covered before, but was wondering if there's any new information on the subject. Syncing video to Live with Live as the master. What are the options? Can QT read an IAC sync input. I tried Revision, but it only operates as a master. I do a lot of work with video and would like t...

I was wondering if anybody knows anything about this?

How does it compare to the Firface 800? Should I just wait for the Fireface 400 to get an RME for my powerbook?

yeah, get a Universal Audio 2-1176

WTF is that? Can't find any description anywhere. Am I missing something here?

hey, tarekith. thanks for the tips on your site. hey, how does the MM sequencer differ from the MD? crap, i might just have to get one now. but then i'll have to sell my computer and my wife as well....

The sequencer IS very intuitive and easy to use. However, to get a variation in your pattern, you need to program a whole new pattern in another pattern slot. For instance, if you have a 4 bar pattern looping and you want to add something, you have to insert another pattern. Maybe I'm wrong, but I h...

im pretty sick of vsts and their lack of ispiration. id like to slim everything down to just a couple of portable, powerful machines. I write mainly electro/minimal stuff. cheers Yes! You can produce an entire track just on the MD! I mean, you can't score a film on it or anything. But if you're goi...

What the hell is up with analog? Why do so many digital manufacturers market their products to have that "analog" feel or "analog" sound? If I wanted analog, I would buy analog. Can't we just make better sounding DIGITAL products? Why do we have to look back at the great products...

god, this thread is so stupid. why did i ever bring it up? i'm gonna stick with logic - i sound better in logic.

Just wanted to take this opportunity to acknowledge 2 awesome albums from 2 awesome composers. -Frank Zappa's "Jazz From Hell"- Amazing album all programmed on the synclavier. All I can say - crazy programming chops - 10 years before Aphex Twin. I spent an entire summer listening to it whe...
