please post in here. i found one really nice thing on polish ebay - the yamaha rm1x. but i don'y know much about some hardware like that... maybe someone could help me out ?? |

i don't know the yamaha rm1x. i often use an akai mpc4000 and i must say i regret the fact that i don't use it more. i find that sequencing with the mpc is a lot more easy and more (although i hate using the term like this) intuitively than with the software sequencer which i use (nuendo). |

but, what do you want to do with it, actually? |
||||||||

that's a good question ! :D i'm just sick of staring in my monitor making all my sound on a pc... i would want to get into hardware a bit. such a sequencer would be a good start... i think. the only really prolbme is that i cannot load my own samples into the rm1x... my question is just... can i bind the rm1x to some synth, so it will play it ?? here's a link to a review... but i cannot find anything about it !! |

well, you can use it to control other hardware. that i know. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
sure ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
what kind of music do you make ? you have mp3 of songs made on the akai one ? post please. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
tell me - can you wire your akai to your computer and use a software sampler for example ? just curious... |

anyone else ?? |

"tell me - can you wire your akai to your computer and use a software sampler for example ? just curious..." well, the akai IS a sampler (and also a sequencer) so I don't need a software sampler next to it. but via midi i can control whatever receives midi, so in theory it would be possible. i'll post a track i did partly with the mpc. for now, check . |

|
oh, i already have a track up with some mpc stuff in it. it's not the track i had in mind, but it'll do. |
||||||||

for the beginning it would be quite cool... i would use the pc with kontakt as a sampler for my first songs.... and afterwards buy a hardware sampler... or is this a bad idea ? :D |
||||||||

i don't know, that's up to you. you would still be making the sounds on your computer though ;) for me, the layout of the yamaha rm1x doesn't do much for me. too messy.. but if you think it beats sequencing on your computer, then go for it. be sure to check out the limitations of it though, make sure you don't grow out of it too fast... |

lang lee sounds awesome - but tell me how much and how did you u use the mpc ? for sequencing ? or just samples ?? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"grow out of it too fast" - that's my point u know... i make really complex beats lately on my pc - and something like this might be a step back in my music... that's why i'm asking people about it... maybe i find out something else. |

it costs new 3000 zloty in poland - that's hm... divided by 4... 750 dollars... i can get it for half that prize - nearly unused... i'm a bit jealous cause my friend bought a yamaha su 700 for 1700 dollars last week... sequencer + sampler + live mixer + fuck hell knows in one box... shit :/ |

thanks, i did the sequencing of the "drum sounds" and the melody line on the mpc. i also used the sampler of the mpc a bit. however, it's been treated a lot afterwards... i don't know how complex you can go with the rm1x... maybe you can go to a music store and try one out. the price sounds pretty fair though. (there are always people who have had better deals, it's frustrating, i know) maybe can help you out... |

thanks alot... i can tell you that i would never guess that this lange song was made on a sequencer like this... really. i thought such complex beat s are only possible on pc's. one point more for the rm1x... |
