Hey all, It's been forever since I've been here. Here's my scenerio: I've got a Yamaha Motif 8 (classic), a Yamaha Piaggero (NP11) and a Roland XV-3080 module. The NP11 was given to me and I'd like to use it to control the Roland module, but it's got no pitch bend nor mod wheel. It has Midi IN...

Hey all, Found this pic of an artist I like in the studio. One mic place right side up, the other upside down above the other mic: http://img196.yfrog.com/i/f3nv.jpg/ Looks like the same mic?

Hey all, I'm selling my GT50 condenser microphone and my Line 6 Gearbox Gold Bundle. The mic has seen about 10 hours of studio time in my home studio recording vocals. It's a FET mic and has worked well on my vocals. I recorded the vocals for the first song on my MySpace page (No Letting Go...

Hey all, I picked one of these up for $125 on ebay recently, and have successfully swapped the op-amps with AD823AN's and put RCA black plate 5751 tubes (late 1950's) in it. Already can hear the difference! For a total investment under $200, I think I'm sitting fairly well. I've read a few...

Hey all, Did some searching here this AM in search of controller ideas. What I'm looking to purchase is a 61 key controller that will hold up to a busy gigging schedule. I'm using a Motif 8 live and love it, but need something with a bit lighter feel for the organ stuff I'm doing. Semi-weighted...

Hey all, A feature I really haven't used yet although I was aware of it. I've got an acoustic guitar track that is a touch off rhythm in a couple parts in a song. Tried a few takes, and the guitarist couldn't seem to nail down a consistent part. I curious if AudioSnap might be the solution - or...

Hey all, For some reason I can't wrap my head around this today. I have a FC7 controller pedal hooked up to my Motif 8 (first foot controller jack) and intend to use it for volume. I have a Roland XV-3080 hooked up to the Motif, and would like to set it up so the Motif accepts the volume changes...

Hey all, I have a good friend on MySpace and she's recording a new project. I had a demo song up there last year, and she sent me a message telling me she really loved the song. I've also talked with her producer before, and in a general "how are you" email, he stated they were looking for...

Hey all, I built a new PC for recording a couple months back, and have been tweaking and getting her ready to do some hopefully serious recording soon. I've got it running pretty well - 2.1 Ghz AMD 64 dual-core, 2 gigs ram, Windows XP Pro SP2 and Sonar 7 Producer. I'm curious though if the...

Season's Greetings all, I'm looking to sell my EZ Drummer DVD as well as my Vintage Rock EZX DVD. Great application and sound, but don't need it here in the home studio anymore. I contacted Toontrack via email, and was given permission to do a license transfer. What needs to to happen is that I...

Hey all, I've decided to part with my GT50 to buy more live gear. I've only actually used it to run a vocal test when I purchased it, and that's it. Bought it new on a recommendation, and was happy with it on my vocals. Planned to try it on a guitar cab, but never got around to it. I hate the...

Hey all, I've been investing quite a bit of cash in new gear for gigging, and have decided to let go of some studio gear I have that really isn't getting used. First piece to go (reluctantly) is a mint condition True Systems P-Solo single channel pre. I purchased this brand new last fall from...

Hey all, To anyone who may have used samples in a Motif classic before, I curious about an issue I'm having. I maxed out the ram to 64 MB's with a pair of simms purchased from eBay. Supposed to be guaranteed to work, and it does for resampling and my own sampling done via the AD inputs. I...

Hey all, I just aquired a Yamaha Motif 8 (classic) and am in search of a soft case for local gigs. I was given a SKB hard case with it which is a great case, but I think a heavy duty soft case would suit my needs and be easier to manuever (my soft case for my S80 has served me well for 5 years)...

Hey all, Was just browsing eBay yesterday and found a Yamaha Motif 8 (classic) just about at the end of it's 7 day auction. Well, I won the thing today for $610! The guy selling it lives in the same city I do, so I'm picking it up tomorrow. I wanted the Motif back in 2002 when I got my S80, but...

Hey all, I have a S80 which I use as my main controller. I've been able to work my way through a few things in regards to midi and controller settings, but am having some problems with sending program change messages to my Roland XV-3080. The XV-3080 is receiving the messages fine, but when I...

Hey all, What is your typical use of expression/volume pedals (like a Yamaha FC7 for example) for gigs? Swells for organ work? Triggering effects? I'm curious if something like this could be used like a mod wheel - in particular to trigger a rotary effect for organ patches. I've been playing...

Hey all, I'm using a Yammie S80 for my main gig board right now. I've got the PLG150-AP plug-in board for piano (have actually gotten compliments on the sound) and have that covered, but am looking for a module with decent organ and strings. The organs on the S80 are OK, and the strings are...

Hey all, I love my Hafler amp, but this is the one piece of gear that gives me grief in my home studio when the central air unit is on. Contstant buzzing - sometimes pulsating, but mostly steady higher-pitched buzzing sound. The buzzing occurs with nothing plugged in, and is heard through my...

Got the chance to play around with this collection this AM....WOW. I used to own an M1 and loved the darn thing. It was nice to hear the old sounds again - and the sounds that exist on probably a dozen or more demo's of mine. Never owned a Wavestation, but the sounds in this software version are...
