Thanks Qui. I'm beginning to better understand the modular concept of Ableton and how Push integrates with it. Very cool stuff and a whole new way at approaching composition. Two questions: 1. In a different thread you posted a screenshot where you instructed to insert an M4L device. Is that just ...

Thanks Qui... Since my last post I've learned much about Push. Particularly promising is what the folks at nativeKontrol and their Pxt general project will (eventually) do. There is also an informative YT video comparing Push to Machine. Keeping in mind that Push is spanking new compared to the ...

Yes, thank you very much. Never heard of this gizmo but looks like great fun. I wonder, can it be applied to music other than dance of all sorts? The Ableton site states that it's integrated with their software. I use Cubase but was thinking of switching over to Studio One or Reaper. All I know of ...

This is great. I'm getting a sense of the different possibilities and I think that I'll find a working setup to do what I need. I am at a definite disadvantage since I don't even have the K yet to test things out. I can also change the templates directly on the MOTU midi express in case of an ...

No doubt it's more than capable for routine MIDI control I'm curious how elaborate the following example would be: With the A90 I can play an intro on ch 1, then with the push of a button I add a layer mapped ch 2&3. Later sustain a pad chord on channel 2 , press another button turn off channels 1,2 ...

Kronos as controller

Hello. I need some advice. Just bought a Kronos (hasn't arrived yet) and am forced to get rid of a keyboard for lack of space. I've been using a Roland A90 for many yrs- beautiful complex yet easiest to use on the fly controller with 4 MIDI outs that I've configured and connected to a MOTU midi ...

Thanks to everyone for replying, especially Vlad. I understand that my K2500 needs major updating and was about to buy the PC3K8 until I got word of probable new Kurz sampler release in 2014. Yes, rumors are a dime a dozen, we'll see. Vlad's and other recommending I buy both actually made sense ...

My honest opinion? Kurzweil/VAST is 20th century. Kronos is 21st. .... Hmm...well, yes, yet here we are in the 21st Century collectively spending many million$$ on developing and buying emulations of instruments first introduced centuries ago and endlessly bickering about the results. In the 1970's ...

Need a little convincing

Hello everyone. Thinking about buying a new synth. My main keyboard, which I love dearly, is a K2500s, however it's getting a bit lonely and in need of more modern company. Technically I am not a Korg owner (although there's an old OASYS card at the bottom of some box somewhere in my closet, so ...
