question about that rick rock vid and my setup

sup yall, im the cat who started that rick rock thread. anyway, the question is: how was he running all that stuff at once? i have a triton, just ordered a proteus 2000, and my mpc is in the shop. i plan on getting alot of racks, so i guess question 2 is should i buy a midi patchbay to play all the racks and triton at once or is it just standard linking of all the MIDI thru connections to eachother. thanks yall. and yes i searched!!

look into a midi interface, if you use cubase or nuendo check out the steinberg midex 8, swhat i use and its great! plug her into your USB and you have 8 midi in's/outs

fa sho man, i was hoping somebody would respond to me, imma look into that. that will let me use all the different sounds from my racks n all?

you can also just chain the modules to each other on my 2000xl I have a Triton connected as normal then I have my E-mu connected to the Triton by just using the Thru on the Triton connected to the In on the E-mu everything works perfect that way, I know you can chain a whole gang of modules if you want

i was thinking that was possible too, thanks for the conformation skiggy. im new to the whole hardware thing so all the info yall are giving me is great!

yeah use the midi thru's on your modules...

my setup up

mpc midi 1->a station->midi thru-> alpha juno
mpc midi 2-> lxp-1->midi thru->vf-1

i used to have an emu vintage keys and used channels 18-32 to control channels 2-16 on it respectively and then chained my other stuff though the midi thru of that...dont buy a patch bay you can chain it all up for free

im feeling that one way better. i assumed that was the way, but was unsure. dont know too much bout the proteus i just got, i need 1/4 cables to hear the sounds dont i? looks like i might need a bigger mixer...
