    Default Cool New Shit?

    Got any?

    I have been buying some new music production gear lately... just got a new toy today.

    http://t.co/GWaBvoCG


    http://t.co/T86aml1v


    And I got these monitors a few months ago. Love them. Should have dropped some more $ for the bigger Rokit 6s instead of the 5s though... but they sound great.

    The Maschine Mikro is essentially a hardware controller that interfaces with the Maschine software sampler. Comes with about 6gb of samples and a bunch of synths. All controls/settings can be accessed on the hardware unit, so you don't spend time going back and forth from the pads to the laptop. Tons of ability to edit your patterns after you record them. Flexible quantize and swing functions. It can seamlessly browse patches for other NI soft synths and load them into the pads. Can do internal sampling really easily - ie records the full output from Maschine and then use it as a sample mapped to a pad. This thing is a beast. Expect to get some Beat Chemist music threads in the near future...

    Demz, if you're reading this... I dunno how you go about making your music, but if you're at all into chopping loops and re-sequencing/playing them on pads... then this setup is fucking amazing for the $400. Especially with the way it will also load vsti synths and browse their patches. Shit is a blast to work with.

    POST SOME COOL SHIT YOU ARE STOKED ABOUT!!!!!

    Oh and if any of you other producer dudes want cuts and scratches on your shit just get at me. I'm looking to do some work. I'm no QBert but if you want an ill scratched chorus or something I can cut up whatever sample/soundfile you want.

    I dabble... or would it be considered dribble.... Lol whatever it may be, that setup looks dope. Are monitors really worth it? I mean my setup consists of two screens and a laptop and fl studio, so I don't think I should drop the cash. here's a little thing I made today. http://soundcloud.com/andreasrpohlmann/tps

    Yeah. I mean a nice pair of speakers and an amp will sound good, and give you a pretty accurate idea of what's going on sonically, but that's going to cost you some $$ anyways. These babies are small but pump out a LOT of sound. I'm not going to get technical (cuz I don't really believe is 60% of the audio psychoacoustic voodoo) but they have a pretty flat frequency response and this is important.

    I'll check out your stuff a little later... I'm still working with the new toy right now... hahah

    @Pyro: haha yeah, that too! I'm sooo stoked about my purchase, haven't made a purchase that I was extremely happy about in a super long time!

    @BeatChemist: believe me, if it wasn't for the harsh winters up in Montreal, I'd be riding this day and night lol but I did get the chance to cruise around it the other day, and it felt amazingly good. Can't wait to use it everyday!

    Oh Montreal eh? C'est domage! En Toronto les rues sont sec maintenant. Mon skateboard est as le maison de mon ami... but I'm going to buy a new complete setup this year I think... just for cruising.

    A gift I did for myself, because of my first paycheck. So happy with them, they are pretty good for their price.

    Yeah man I really need to invest in some good speakers etc.. But I always play with my headphones so I get pretty good sound anyway.. If there's something I need, then it's a good home cinema system for my 52" led tv :P
