Hi.
Im not new to messing with gear, but the 1000 so far is the most widely used, and most powerful sequencer I've had in my set up to date. So when I "upgraded" to it, the problems I've had on lesser samplers and such, I thought would dissapear. But I seem to have similar problems.
To me nothing I do is giving me what I think is a nice loop.
Here are a list of symptoms that seem to pop out and bug me-
1-When I listen to it, up until the last note in the last bar it seems to be ok, but right at the loop point, it's usually starting to late or too slow.
2-When I just do the drums alone, with no Keyboard sounds, it SEEMS like this beat might be perfect. THEN, once I start adding sounds from my Motif (midi), then listen to the loop, it's like how I described in the above symptom. Plus there also seems to be a bit of note slow down maybe at the halfway point of the loop, as if I was not playing on tempo, but not only was i, but should'nt the quantize that I have it set to be aiding in that department?
Is it the midi? Is it the MP? Is it my ears? Is nothing good enough for me? I doubt it. I've being using garbage gear for so long, that Once I got my MPC, I thought I would be solving some of my old pet peeves. But Im still a bit annoyed.
Any insight? Because I'll never give up until I get it just the way Im trying to get it.
My set up is the 1000, and Motif 6. No PC for me just yet.
