What new booty have you acquired? (Page 69 of 189)

you have to cut even more frequencies to press something on vinyl...

Well, there are some limitations on what you can cut to vinyl, you can't have very low and loud bass in stereo for example. Most of the time this isn't a real issue as bass has very little directional information anyway. The main other issue is very high frequency harsh loud material that can burn out the cutter (this is expensive) but it's not like mp3 is especially good at that kind of material anyway.

Mp3 seems mainly suitable for convenience to me, less so for soundquality.

There was, BTW, some research a while ago that found that young people are increasingly prefering the sound of mp3 to wave or CD. Supposedly this had to do with high frequency content added by re-synthesis artefacts that are perceived as giving the material extra energy. I find that quite interesting, how the perception of what is high quality sound changes from generation to generation. I'm not going to argue that; if you feel mp3 sounds better that may very well be the case for you.

Nice wan no fi wouldlike to have an sq10 2 and how is the msq?

same old sad story with this topic, virgins talking about sex.

The ASQ-10 seems very solid. though it needs a tiny bit of TLC, I'll hopefully get it fixed today. Also it seems mine is running V1.0 (latest from akai is 2.10, and from r linn is 3.something) and acts a little strange in some places. Like, the LEDS relating to some of the menu buttons are not consistently lit and extinguished when I go through the menu pages?

It seems like there's stuff in the mpc2000 that I like, that the asq(and mpc 3000/60) doesn't do. But if it works out as a more solid and responsive sequencer, I can live with that. So yeah - I just need to get it tidied up, then plugged into the heart of my studio and see how it goes for a while.

Also it's the one piece of old gear I know of from akai that they don't have a manual for on their website. bah. the mpc60 manual seems very close though, and the menu system is very flat anyway, thanks to about 21 different menu buttons on the front panel so I should be OK.

ja hoor...

Thats a real badass filter mono, you gonna love the backsite of that thing

you got an MK1 or MK2?

ok awesome, MK1 has only a bit lower headroom and a little bit higher noisefloor, cant tell if its a big difference, but the MK2 is realy really silent when it comes to noise en hiss.

The filter itsself (all 24 of em) sounds very very crispy and hifi... i guess a bit the the mutronics mutator one.
It intregates so good in a modular set, it got lots of CV inputs but also cv out, like env cv out (bi-polar) S&H triggers, even the dynamic reduction (compressor) can generate a trigger.

well, today I fixed 4 buttons on the ASQ-10 - all good now. except I discovered the V1.0 ASQ-10 (and probably MPC-60?) system is a bit limited. you only have 16 MIDI channels available, and then you assign a channel to 1 of the 4 outputs... :-(

Later upgrades give you all 16 channels on each of the 4 outputs, which is what I want. So it looks like I need the firmware upgraded for that. bugger.

still.. I'm impressed with the basic operation of it as a sequencer.

so... anyone know at which firmware revision the mpc-60 got all 64 MIDI channels?

good score!

Nice one BMX but for that kind off monney i would go for a Zerotronics reverb instead.

But a reverb is completly different than a Chorus/Echo ?

And arent those zerotronics verbs really spartan? As in no knobs (or very little etc) I mean this doesnt look really sexy.
