LOL

We have way more features than an MPC 1000. More ram standard than an mpc 5000 fully maxed out....... More sounds than any hardware drum machine in history that were recorded and mastered in the best studio's in the world. Color LCD screen, More FX, 2, 16 gig SD card slots instead of 1, 2 gig Compact flash, 2 USB ports instead of one and umm we dont have to be hooked to a power chord yet our machine is tha toy????.........riggghhhhttt ooook lol. Yeah and just the proto is plastic the real one will be all metal.....but hey if you need a big boat anchor and 8 midi outs to make hits then do you.
If yall hate it so much why you keep talk'n about it. I see the same folks in here talk'n trash. Shouldn't you be making beats if you are so into music? Music is the point right?

It's really funny to see 22 pages of chatter on here. Seems like we got yall shook up a bit. Word! Keep talking positive or keep hate'n just keep talking. We love it..... We been through hell and back to make a beat machine from scratch..... I'm only 27 and figured out how to do this $**t for real. I even beat Roger to having a working proto and he's "GOD" to you..... Well if hes god then meet the Damn Devil. I make THANGZ and the industry is about to feel my wrath. It's not every day a 27 year old biz man can build a company from scratch thats got the whole MI world scrambling.

What you wanna say now huh? huh? WHAT? uhhh midi uhhh tyco uhhh zoom uuuhhh toy uhhh Bring it on. The beats jumping off my proto already hotter than anything ive heard come from a 5000 and we aint even done yet. We've only showed 5% of what this thang is gonna do....
Make a beat machine from scratch blow it up at NAMM then run your mouth. You bite we bite back homie THIS AINT AKAI!

Bold Cocky and unstopable just like HIP HOP

Sucka MC's get faded

Peace to all that know where we are coming from and walk with us. War to all who stand in our way!

Damn dude, ya'll MAJORLY lack professionalism. Being Annoyingly arrogant isn't Hip Hop. This isn't how a company trying to gain customers should act. If you're gear is so great, then why even respond to the haters? Let your "Beat Thang" do the talking and stop trying to convince us.

The Beat Kangz are posting because they want you all to know they are willing to dialog with us as well as listen to our constructive criticisms and suggestions unlike Akai. Hey Beat Kangz don't get on their level.

Now, could you please give us some info on the sampling features?
I'd like to know if the Thang can chop/edit/time stretch samples.
It would be great if you could post a video showing the Beat Thang's sampling options.

Was that video supposed to show how great the machine was, all im going to say the machine is what it is notting more nothing less, Im not going to hate on the broters trying to make their paper.
Now have something to give to my son to get him off my M-5000.

Hip hop isnt arrogant? You must have never heard of BIG or PAC or DRE or LL or Geezy, Or Wayne, Or kanye or Jigga, or Timberland or missy or Da brat or 50, or M or Talib or Mos...... and every other major hip hop artist ever...

It not about being professional. It's about being real. I'm not going to kiss your ass to get you to buy my product.... Maybe the "Professional" companies will do that but not us. We do what we do and make a few thangz. We will listen to your ideas and try to make the good ones reality but we will slang a lil mud with haters too. We have fun talk'n crazy!
We like being rebels and PLAN to break all the "RULES". Deal

Yes it will auto chop and slice samples and offer Key grouping so you can turn samples into an 88 key patch.

The sampling will work just like any sampler, Threshold settings, Normalize ,gain Resample through FX, start and end point.

There will be Cut off and Res and ADSR, 2 fx sends, pitch, Volume ,pan for each pad. *8 pad banks per kit or patch*

Velocity sensitive pads, 16 layers per pad

Will read loop points in Wav and AIff files (which means if you have a synth or string sample you can make it play forever as long as you hold the KEY)

Plastic was for the proto. Production will be all metal and much smoother and refined. The design has evolved.

1 year warranty.

Also it will have More Cowbell

The reason we dont want to get into to many details yet is because these corps are all over us trying to figure out what we are doing...... They were all over us at Namm and we have the video to prove it. They are worried because they all know me...... They know who this kid is who invented digital scratching... They know what im about to do. The tech stuff doesnt really mean that much. It's the soul that lives in the machine. You can have all the in's and outs and fancy wizbangz in a machine but if it aint got soul it aint no thang. Some of you guys sit in here and type all day. We are not making this machine for Forums. We are making it for people who actually make music. Its an instrument and will have its own sound.... It's its own Thang. You guys seem way more interested in tech specs than music. Hell midi it to your MPC if you want. It whatever you want it to be..... Does a symphony have just one instrument? Its gonna make crazy shizzle.

Good god folks roll a dutch make a beat and chill tha hell out its just a beat machine! It will be as crazy as we are........

leave the hate in 2008 lmao

Make Beats

I just want to know about the THANG's sampling capabilities. I could care less about the tough-talk. 27 yr old biz man or 27 yr old internet thug... who cares. GIVE ME SPECS!!! You haven't answered alot of really important questions. What's the hold up?

Good, now what about the pitch bend and mod wheels? Don't you think it would be a good idea for them to be on the same (left) side? Just a question. And when is the release date? I wanna put my hands on this to see what it can do.
