I'm using an amd phenom 955 and an a asus motherboard. i put my benchmark in the rate your system thread. my system runs live 8 without any problems.

I really like the pad kontrol too, it has the most sensitive pads which others have said. It also has a nifty XY pad plus two knobs. Though I'm not using it anymore since I have a smaller desk and only have room for one controller. I'm happy using my Axiom 25 to play drum parts. A keyboard can play ...

I'd like to know this too. My gut is telling me there aren't any. Maybe a demo of NI Kontakt?

Live won't allow you to have two sessions open at the same time. Though, from the left browser, you could drag over another entire session into you current sessions. Try grouping your current session which will make it into one grouped track. Then drag over the other session and group that. Then sta...

In your drum machine, there should be a midi clock setting that would have to be set to external. In Live, in the midi preferences, the midi port connected to the drum machine should have the sync button enabled. Then the drum machine midi in should be connected to the correct midi out from your com...

Will you get it at a good price?

You need to connect a midi out of your computer/midi interface to the S2000's midi in. Connect audio outs of the S2000 to an audio in pair on your audio interface. To sample to the S2000, connect it's audio ins to an extra pair of audio outs on your audio interfaces. In Live, go to the preference an...

Maybe a used Axiom 25 first generation. I have it and also use its midi in and out. Its a great feeling keyboard too.

If you have OK credit, why not apply for a Guitar Center, Musicians Friend or a Sweetwater.com credit card. They usually give you 6 to 12 months with no interest to pay it off.

You could also find the monitors that sound good in the store and then search online, ebay maybe, for the cheapest price.

memes_33, what kind of desk are you using? Where'd you get it?

Every time Live has an update the user remote scripts are copied to the new preference folder. I had a similar problem, I edited the user file that I had a short cut to, but it wasn't working. I discovered my short cut was taking me to the user file in Live 8.2.1's preferences when I was using Live ...

I recommend buying the quietest CPU cooler. The stock coolers that come with CPUs are really loud, like a hair dryer. I bought a quieter cooler after I already built my PC, so I had to take it apart again to put it in. This site recommends the most quiet CPU coolers. http://www.acousticpc.com/

I used this link to tweak Windows 7, though, it's not specifically for audio. Try also seaching in the gearslutz forum.

When I was using the 828mk3 with a mac, I enabled Live's 9-10 outputs for the XLR Main Outs on the 828. On the PC, the XLR Main Outs show up as outs 1-2 in Live. From there I could use the Master Volume knob to control the over all volume. Also, you have to set the XLR Main Out to Main Outs 1-2 in t...

The Yamaha QY20 was my first midi purchase way back in 1994. Sold it in 1995. I remember it was fun to use. I needed the money to fund the esi-32 I think.
