@ starving the iPad is the best, but you will be forced to upgrade or assed out by the shame of not having the latest version within 6 months to a year tops. enjoy that!

I bought the iPad 1 on day one and have never felt the need to upgrade. i may do when the screen resolution doubles but until then i am one happy camper :mrgreen:

iPad1 FTW. I came close to dropping the coin for the iPad2, but at this point it's going to have to be number3.

Of course, if 3 turns out to be nothing more than a smaller version I'm going to be :x .
I came for the :lol:
But stayed for the :x

:D

do compact flash card readers just pop up on the ipad as an external storage device?
I know there is no usb port on an ipad but there is an adapter cable available right?
reason I'm asking is because an mpc just pops up as an external drive on a computer and you can drag audiofiles back and forth and I need this functionality with the ipad.

the cloud is a lie. it's a money farm for the hosts and a gamble for the user base.

:lol:

I keep nothing in the Cloud.

Okay, I've got a little FTP site to use for easily transfering my shit back and forth to my iDevices. But actually storing something?

Nay.

honestly not a cloud fan here. i like to flip you chaps a little shit over Apple stuff but the difference between Apple stuff and the cloud is that Apple stuff is expensive but they're hardly ripping you off... the cloud... LOL. sure, let me pay you (whom i don't know from Adam) to keep files i consider very important. :lol: oxymoron much?

cloud = mistake in the making. unless it's a corporate cloud on their own LAN.

As far as I know, no. The cats are probably hooking thier iPad up to a MIDI connection. Apps that do sampling usually have a cloud based, wifi, or iTunes sync system for transferring audio files.

And having a drive dangling off an iPad like a cancerous growth is retarded.

Depending on the app it might have it's own proprietary method but I think there are also some methods that third party app developers can utilize, sorta like dropbox but specific to audio. I'm not that deep into it yet.

gotcha , I use dropbox for everything, I dunno I guess I'm not keen on giving up the immediacy for using shit like dropbox just to transfer files between machines but then again its somethin to get used to if that's what you gotta do.
oh well I'm that much closer.
