Hah, yeah im still debating if i should do that. I know i will have some money left over but i dont know if i should save it for next semester or if i should spend it to live comfy. I am trying to trick myself into thinking DAW is the same as hardware...

numark or vestax?


I think the vestax is slimmer and has slightly rounded edges, so it would probably fit better in a bag.

yeah, but the vestax is twice as long as the pt-01,
so even if the pt-01 is thicker its dimensions
will easeier get into a backpack

i would def say the vestax is smaller for backpacks. the pt01, if in a backpack, is pretty much the only thing in there :shock:


the vestax is atleast flat. like a binder shape or whatnot

Here are some updated shots. Not pictured is my bcf2000, my mpd16, and my radium 49. I switched up from using a desktop to using my laptop. The laptop takes up a lot less space and I really like that. I sold my Ensoniq ESQ-1 and bought an Ensoniq EPS. I love the EPS and its the new center piece of my production rig. I still use Reason and my cd3000i. I mainly use the EPS as a drum machine/sequencer kinda like a mpc. When I fix the screen on my cd3000i Ill be using it as my main sampler for chopping loops and things.

damn man, sorry to hear that !



Thanks man, but i think everythings going to be alright. I just found out today that i am eligible for some financial aid and maybe even a student load which should help me out substantially. In the end ill probably just sell everything and buy a 61 key workstation, an XS6 or an ASR10.


oh thats good ! plan sounds good too

do you find the alesis io26 is a piece of shit? Mine seems to be extremely unstable and I find it to sound quite flat and boring. Every now and then it totally packs it in and has this extreme digital distortion and i have to turn it off for a while. Highly NOT recommended

have you dropped the interface or something ? you still have warranty left ? you shoul contact the dealer or Alesis for that matter to get the ish fixed, i know i broke my **** back to get the money to buy that ish and its not fun if its broken after awhile...
