    uploading wav files from minidisc to PC

    Well, Sony once made Minidisk rom drives for the PC.. but they are impossible to find second hand. Minidisks work like tape.. I'd love to see an upgrade on MD technology, but for right now you have to hook up the headphone out to to the line in of your PC card and just record it with your...

    Should I Buy This ???

    I was gonna suggest a triton rack ... You really should consider modules. They are the most synth sound bang for your buck. Also if you have any gear that accepts ROMs or expansions cards, that's allways an option too. If you are just starting studio, where to spend that first money is a really...

    live midi questions. Please help.

    well if all you want is an old style sequencer, a old laptop top might suffice with a midi interface. I do know especially with the roalands, the keyboards need to be put into a performance mode. then you select an instrument for each channel. Then you could go into sonar and just set the midi...

    Adding laptop to "standalone" setup

    Well could get a rack mount PC case, load it into your shock case and use it to DJ, sequence and record.. I'd just get a flat screen and 99mghz wireless keyboard and mouse.

    The problem with music.

    well i disagree here.. The process of creativity is what im in it for, it's its own reward. To learn a new skill, to advance and conquer.. The public perfomance part to me is nothing more than just to feel good about going out into the "scene" and getting some sort of recognition.. BUT it...

    Is the new XP-30 better than old Xp-80's?

    They are all the same.. The xp30 is the XP lite series.. same sound bank ect. Just sans a sequencer. I guess the lower the number the further away from a workstation you get. It does come with the session. orchestra and techno expansion boards. I used to own one. I loved this synth, but it...

    Synth Sound Module?

    theres the triton rack that's recommeneded by like every one. but that can be pricy. I'm thinking I might pick up a EMU rom or module.. they are pretty cool and all under $700. I bought the XL7 for the sequencer effects and so forth. Their soundchip is cool, but a bit thin.. more of a starter...

    Question: Best Keyboard for Sound Effects?

    Well as they say time is money.. I just dont see it being worth the time to tweak a JP8000 or the MS2000 just to get a few button sounds and so forth..

    Question: Best Keyboard for Sound Effects?

    8 Well hold on here... Lets establish a few things first. Are you wanting to build a audio studio? or just back up a webdesign business? Just to add pads, drum loops and button clicks to some flash animation by buying a synth is in a word, wack. Your best bet would be to go buy ACID and buy...
