My thoughts on Nu(akai).... Eat a d!ck. I wont even go into a rant like i have in previous posts. I will admit that i was a little turned off by some of the Kangz marketing at 1st. I was like "well whatever another drum machine" But i saw a new video that was posted and honestly it looks pretty promising. The only thing i could see it was lacking was multiple outputs. Some very usable features and tons of memory. I think if priced right, the beatthang could do very well. One thing i liked was that the features to me just weren't some talking points, but were thought of from the standpoint of beatmakers. The marriage between it and its software counterpart seems pretty cool too. As far as other companies, i think that with the ease of use and price of software compared to hardware has slowed up alot of companies from throwing out hardware pieces like they use to. For instance i had always wanted a Moog keyboard. My wallet would not allow it. So i hit up Guitar Ctr and grab the arturia Moog vst. And it sounds great to me. I think companies are seeing this as well. Too much money goes into developing hardware pieces for them to sit on the shelves. Look at the mpc 5000.....
But if someone were to come up with a (complete) machine comparable to the reliability of a mpc3000 and feature sets of newer equipment...........
We will see. Im afraid though that Roger Linn might be our last hope.
Damn Joidi!! Nice avatar!! lol Its been 2-3 days since i first saw that video and i still cant stop laughing. lmbao That old man gave him some on that bus!! lol
