I have had my 2480 for about two and a half months now, and it is absolutely fantastic... I used a Roland 880ex for two years, so there was no learning curve for the 2480. It definitely blows away the Yamaha. I did not check out the akai 24 track, but I did check out the 16 track and there...

fuckin' brilliant!!!

I appreciate all of the replies... I guess I have no choice but to get one :) you guys rock!!!

sweet... I assume that means that if I buy one, I will not need to buy another synth ever... Opposed to given a list of synths, this would be the last one I would need... Based on what I've seen, I assume it you mean it is as awesome as it looks!!! Just clarifying... (It looks almost too...

I am thinking of buying the Nord Modular... Looking for some comments from someone who has one. Thanks, Ubik Music.

I have had my Karma for about three weeks now and it is fantastic... It is incredibly more flexible than I first imagined, and it has already found its way into a couple of songs that I have been working on in ways I never thought possible... Yes, a monkey may be able to play some of the...

I want to get a sound module that will give an assortment of great sounds, from piano to strings to pads and effects. I have looked at a bunch and am heavily considering the emu proteus 2000. Anybody have anything negative to say or can recommend anything else??? Thanks...

If can spend the extra dough, check out the Joe Meek VC1Q... You won't be disappointed...

I am currently using Yamahas XG Works sequencer program. It is pretty cool, but I have the "LITE" version that came with one of the Yamaha products that I have. It is a bit limiting, because it is not the full version... I need to get a full blown sequencer program to use with my sampler...

How do I trigger my keyboard sequencer from my computer based sequencer?? I have parts programmed into my sequencer that I want to use in conjunction with other modules that I am controlling from my computer. I can access sounds on the keyboard, but cannot seem to trigger or mute sequencer...

I would definitely check out the Line 6 modulation effect simulator. It has three different types of flangers that are modeled after "classic" flanger pedals and boxes. There are also phasers, amazing choruses, etc. It's super easy to use and there are stereo in's and out's... Give it a...

you need a chorus set really deep, some reverb or real short delay, and a phaser. If the phaser is set right and timed right, you'll definitely get a good cocteau twins sound...

Thanks guys... I went last night to do a final comparison of the pre's... I thought the mindprint was great... It blew away everything else but the JM VC1Q. I thought the compression on the Joe Meek was the best and it sounded so smooth and warm... I went with the JM and got a pretty good...

After doing bunch of research and reading a tons of posts, I have decided on getting the Joe Meek VC1Q... Any thought or suggestions?

JimH: Thanks. I use the Yamaha XG software. It does have a thru function. I guess I assign it to the "in" that my keyboard is assigned to. I will try it later on... Thanks for the help!!

I have a sampler that I control via midi with both a keyboard and my computer. My question is: Can I control it with both at the same time? Right now I have my computer midi interface "out" going to the "in" on the sampler. If I want to control the sampler with the keyboard, then I have to...

Yeah, the A4000 is fantastic... However, no hard drive standard and only 4meg of RAM standard which you can't do much with. I purchased 64meg of additional RAM and now I can really do a lot with it. I also just finished my first recording using the A4000 and I cannot believe the sound...

Hey Jim: Thanks for the input. After checking out many a sampler option, I went with the Yamaha A4000 and it is awesome. Does everything I need and more than I ever thought possible. Best of all, it is fairly intuitive and it has knobs that make it easy to navigate... Thanks for the input!!

I am interested in buying a sampler. I don't want to spend more than say $1,200, but I'd much rather spend less... I want something that has decent memory, a scsi port, so I can easily connect my SCSI cd player for those fancy CD ROM sample discs. I assume that I can use the sampled sounds...

I am trying to import patches into my POD... In the Sound Driver software I open a library. In the library screen I select a patch and I get a message - "No Device Output Selected..." or something along those lines. I have used the software for other modifications on the POD, so I know it is...
