[OT] I wish I'd brought my MPC with me this morning!

[serge_a_storms]

I thought about bringing it with me this morning but was torn between gym after work or sampling some found sounds at lunch. I only have room in my bag for gym gear or MPC, not both. That might have been a work out in itself had I mangaged to bring both.

Right in the mood to do that sampling sort of thing now!

I suppose I'll feel better later whilst fending off the midlife lardyness!

That is all.

I, too, wish I had my MPC with me. I'm right in the mood for chopping up some sounds... I still need to sample the photocopiers at work.

[beats me]

Field recorders? A lot smaller than a MPC.

I have my zoom H2 wirth me and just sampled a random cold call left on my voice mail.

"Ah yes, you don't know me, its Barry Buckingham"

Classic. will use that.

"Is that an R-09 in your gym pants, or are you just happy to see me?"

Cool. Wanna buy one for me?

Thought not.

MPC it is for now then.

Oh and you can't sequence on a field recorder.

That's kind of what I had in mind. Record the lifts that kind of thing.

Damn right. There is a certain kind of rhythmic satisfaction that can only be brought about by listening to a photocopier.

God bless the battery-powered sampler!

I love field recording. on sunday I took a load of stuff to the rubbish dump and they had a big crane grappling hook machine chomping through garbage. Naturally I whipped out my tascam recorder and got a couple of minutes recording of the action. Got a few funny looks though, but sod em

It's definitely worth the strange looks. There is something really satisfying about making something musical from fields recordings.

@logic_user99 - Rhthmic photocopiers - Ever tried putting a contact mic onto a photocopier? (or anything else for that matter)

I haven't, actually. That's an interesting prospect; know of any cheap contact mics?
