But you may be right. Trying to put lipstick on this pig is probably not worth the effort. Maybe I can edit one of the claps on the DR-3....

This has nothing to do with Flamenco per se. It just has to do with standard music (3/4, 6/8 phrasing, measures, etc.), and if this machine can do what a Boss DR-3 drum machine can do in MIdi. I just think it might have been translated to English by someone for whom it is a second language.... That ...

Maybe what Korg means by "step" is a 1/4 note beat (so three "steps" would be a measure of 3/4), and by "beat" they mean 1/16th notes, 16 of which would make a measure of four "steps" (beats), so 3 "steps" would make a measure of 12 1/16th notes (which would allow 4th and 8th notes by simply ...

I was comparing it to drum machines that go way back. I would use a drum machine, but Flamenco needs crisp, sharp handclaps, and every sample that came with those drum machines sounded like 4 drunk guys in a bar... :) So I just use live and a laptop/Launchpad, and for portablility I finally found a ...

One can't make a distinction between 3/4 and 6/8 in such an implementation, not to mention triplet note groups in 6/8. It is the reason that the unit can't export MIDI files, and can't communicate with Ableton except by saving audio files. The whole Midi implementation is screwed up for general ...

Thanks much for the response. That's what I was afraid of, and a deal breaker for me. I don't understand why Korg doesn't hire musicians that understand time signatures; to me this is an attractive device where the music has been implemented in very stupid ways (only for 4 on the floor). Someone ...

I am considering purchasing an ES2, but I'm confused about the terminology in the manual. One normally defines a time signature in terms of measures; e.g. a t/s of 3/4 means a measure contains 3 1/4 notes, with a "beat" as a quarter note, so a BPM of 120 means 120 quarter notes a minute, or 40 ...

Apparently the time signature is set for the style, as in the PA80 (and microArranger). The only way to edit it would be to change it a DAW (change time signature and then manually edit each variation and resave it as a .sty file...

I had tried this before, but is very laborious...

My reading is that you can cut measures but not quarter notes (from a measure) 4/4 -> 3/4

I never play Flamenco, not my flavor :) That's Ok, nobody else with an arranger (besides me) does either in Pa600 has option to cut out beat in style edit, you can easily change from 4/4 to 3/4 re; try it Pa600 you won't be disappointed is great arranger :) Can I CHANGE an existing style from 4/4 ...

Just an .mpg would be appreciated. re: the 4/4 to 3/4 issue I was surprised that Maschine worked so well this way. I guess I'll have to hook up my MicroArranger to a Uno to do an actual experiment. The MIDI interface to a DAW like Ableton should be interesting; one should be able to create MIDI clip ...

Hi all, I am thinking of upgrading from the MicroArranger to the PA600QT. I am basically a Flamenco guitarist who would like to create backing tracks for Flamenco Compas structures where most of the important ones are in triple meter (3/4). Flamenco is a unique art, and programmers that don't ...

Ok, but I've got a MicroArranger, not a PA80, which doesn't do samples, so I'm SOL. Oh well, I can always sync Ableton Live if I have to...

My new microarranger arrived! I paid $409 for a used microarranger on Ebay, and was informed I'd be getting a NEW one! And sure enough, it arrived VERY fast, in original packing. That NEVER happens to me, except this time..... (unless there is a global price drop, but every other vendor was at $499 ...
