Hah... well I'm down to 2 MPCs again... from 4. How many 4k's you got over there CR? I just sold off my MPC X (in case another one drops), sold my babied MPC 1k... have the MPC Live mk2, and ordered a busted up MPC 500 that I've repaired and will probably flip to pocket the gap. I honestly don't have room for the gear I have, and have already downsized about half my collection of gear. Danoc and his DAW studio does sound appealing when I'm jamming my knee into the rack n stuff.

Man l just have a midi keyboard , and the computer and lm gone. I never understood why people have multiple machines. Oh well.

No use your mouth to emulate ziggy! We're turning our joints in on Friday :nod:


It's time to use them. Also I used to want to collect flagship MPC's but I kept buying MPC 4000's. People used to ask, why I had so many MPC 4000's. I showed them and they said, damn I want to do that. :lol:

Yeah I know... you flipped it a while back... and I get it... you don't need it... don't keep it around collecting dust.

I haven't seen anybody getting in fights with you about being on the boards and not having an MPC.

Speaking of which... has anybody seen FrisLumi around lately? Dude fell off the map?

At the height of my 4000 obsession way too many. But now I have three 4000's and that's enough. :lol: I need to send @lampdog this JAMMIN track.

:shock: Yes they got on me cause l got on akai ass now they're over there saying this don't work that don't work lol In the end l know what l was talking bout.

I don't really go over there. Between shootibg crap with yall my work and battles l don't go over there looking for them at all. Im tired of looking at golden threads on problems.

I use to be obsessed with MPCs but not anymore. I never thought l would. But here l am.
Im more obsessed with sounds and how to make music.

just getting up to speed here....

The issue I had was when I pressed play in song mode everything was how I wanted it, but when I converted to sequence the whole second half of my beat was messed up. wrong patches playing with the right midi. I am usually pretty good with organizing my stuff and this is the first time I had issues. I just wanted to track my synths out individually.

I hooked up my mixer so I can just press play in song mode to track my beat out. Really worked like a charm from the jump. Was really surprised how much better I liked this "newer" work flow for me. I think I am good to go. I'll submit either tonight or tomorrow. I'm going to listen to it a bit more to see if I want to adjust the levels on my synth since I have 3-4 patches stacked on one channel.

We'll see how my all standalone track mix stacks up. Hope yall like it.
