i'm still bidding on the Virus Classic and the NordTone Deft wrote:
I thought it was a Virus or Nord? IMO JP8000 is a step down from the Virus or Nord. it'll be fine for the Tiesto stuff you do. I shopped for one of these years ago and preferred Waldorf stuff in that price range.
as for the price, does it matter? too late to ask now.
I love trance. Thats just it.Tone Deft wrote:why?
Yeah learning what you have is a decent thing. I've spent a lot of time with that, i never really bought a huge bunch of softsynths, just a few very selected ones (i was very aware not to buy things that could do the same thing you know). Some months ago i printed the manual and i have spent a lot of time programming them, and that have given me a decent knowledge about making this and that sound, using whatever synth i had. From that point it comes to the characteristics and the features of the synth to build on top of that.Tone Deft wrote:true, buy used and you can probably sell it for about the same.
my advice - learn what you already have, THEN buy more gear. what I see happen is people get tons of gear at once but they never learn to use any of it well, it's overwhelming. get a Virus or Nord or Moog or Dave Smith, learn it really well, then sit back and think about what you need next. machinedrum is another nice Gucci piece of gear. then there's that syndrome of "if I only buy this one piece of gear then I can make the music that's in my head" but it's not true, I think we've all been there.
btw good keyboard for trance, Novation Nova, I have one, it's so good for trance I don't use it anymore, needs a new power supply anyway, the current one whistles.
Yeah all the novation stuff seems to usefull for thatbtw good keyboard for trance, Novation Nova, I have one, it's so good for trance I don't use it anymore, needs a new power supply anyway, the current one whistles.
it is when you don't have and can't afford one.b0unce wrote:Gucci has connotations of expensive for the sake of being expensive, or all style no substance.
that's not an accurate way to describe a machinedrum
