Re: Roland Cube or Yamaha speaker

@OccinticLady What instruments are you playing? I'm pretty sure that you'll find the Cube less suited to any kind of keyboards than the Yamaha: that series (especially the cheaper ones) is really aimed at busking guitarists (have a look at the "amp emulation" choices: they are all guitar-...

Re: Roland Cube or Yamaha speaker

Hi all, I'm looking at one of two speakers for on "the road"...a Yamaha speaker (model TO-1 - mid nineties) or a Roland Cube 30... Both go for about E70...steep for the Yamaha, but it IS a synth-capable speaker, be it with a few watts...the Roland has 30W but...is a guitar speaker... Whic...

Gating with QTractor, is that possible?

Hi all,
And on I venture into the whacky woods of electronic music.
As most (that know me) know, I use QTractor.
I'd like to use the gate technique like in this ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxyQNgNKUf8&t=407s ) video.
Any ideas?
Thanks (yet again) for meditating with me...
Love
Melissa

Re: Korg Monologue - Linux (what works ?)

Hi there, Trust me, it works. Even better than that. The factory sequences can even be "extracted" to Seq24 as single notes for further processing. I have set mine to ch16 and it shows as a thing with two inputs in the Qjack graph...I think you'll need the second one... Korg...just works h...

Re: Zero tracktion on youtube...

Youtube now blocks me from seeing anything unless I turn off my adblocker or buy Premium. It started with a closable pop up but now just replaces the video with a notice. It only does it when I am logged in though. People's experiences are varying, I know some who have the same and some who haven't...

Re: Zero tracktion on youtube...

Check that your video is public, not private or hidden. Set to public and visible. Just saw ONE extra click (maybe not a view)... Did take Premium (I was planning on that, things just got put in fast-forward) though...just because I do use Youtube a lot ... We'll see. I was just wondering if Youtub...

Where did you advertise it? How many subscribers do you have?

On my channel ( @melissarainchild ) - I have 64 subscribers.
Normally, I'd have at least some traction, even if just a few seconds view...

Hi all, It's been a (way too long) while since I showed in. I needed to dive deeper into my craft... So, my latest vid has been up about a week...yet zero clicks...safe for the one I did to check the quality... However...I use an adblocker on youtube. Had a nag screen a few times. It's more o' less ...

Re: Boss 880 vs Hydrogen

Hi all, Well, Live gigging is looking around the corner...but since I play ambient mostly...drums may not be at the foreground. The asking price is E100, and this seems very tempting...seen what EBay and such post for prices.... Still, it indeed depends on the style I make...ambient is not really kn...

Re: Boss 880 vs Hydrogen

After some evaluation, I decided not to spend extra cash for a tool I can perfectly have in Hydrogen (with all the quirks)... Hydrogen lets me make my own drumkits - like the one I already made - and use them, let's le tune things in as I need... Something the Boss - for all its good points - may no...

Boss 880 vs Hydrogen

Hi Gang,

Is the Boss worth the money?

Re: One-tap sequencer needed...

Ok, so just fired up my daw and Cardinal. This is all you need for it. When you press a key or pad the midi comes in to the left module, the gate triggers the flip flop and outputs a constant voltage on output A. When you press it again the flip flop changes to output B (not connected to anything) ...

One-tap sequencer needed...

Hi all... I bought a nanopad and a padKontrol (yea, I'm a Korg freak) and use these to control Seq24. Just one snag...I press a pad, and the sequence runs, until I release the pad. What I'd like to do is press the pad and leave it thee, with the sequence running until I re-press the pad... Is there ...
