Which wouldn’t work in this case due to differing standards between Faderfox and M8

Do you have a link?
Thanks
Here are some from Retrokits that I prefer because they don’t apply as much force to the socket. And, if you’re placing an order with them anyway and have some DIN MIDI devices around, might as well throw in a few of these which are brilliant!

Thanks! I like those trs-X ones.
hey I checked on Amazon and I don’t see them anymore, sorry.
There’s this one. Little pricey though.
PolarNoise Midi A to B adapter 3.5mm TRS Cable
Perfect Circuit might have something similar and cheaper. Their 3.5 to midi adapters are cheaper than Amazon.
(All I can see on PCs website is the Retrokit adapters which they’re sold out of.)

I have been doing a lot of music on the M8 lately since one month. Now I have a lot of songs in different genres/vibes and would like to tidy up things. Put some songs that are similar into one folder, and so on.
What is the best practice to make it work? A little scared I will mess things up if I start moving things around. I guess I should bundle all of the songs first? I use a lot of samples.
I also need to do this on a computer I assume? I guess I need a pen and paper and listen through everything and write them down, and then move things around, or how do you go about this?
Very first: backup your SD card entirely on your computer. This way, whatever you do wrong you can always go back.
Now bundle every song within the M8.
This make every song a whole thing, with no external dependency.
Then backup these on your computer.
As for organizing things, this is very personal.
I don’t think you can easily move samples around and expect your song to find them, but I might be wrong. Maybe this is something to be tested.

i might buy one when someone sells at reverb or second hand at different facebook groups, you guys think the second hand price will be fair or ppl will try to flip it?
There are a few scalpers but generally people realise that not many buy at scalper prices I think
There are bound to be a larger-than-usual number of :01s on the market soon. I’d expect the prices on those to be pretty fair.
But where the :02s are concerned, prices for any gear you cannot immediately purchase tend to be higher on marketplace sites. Back when the :01 was first released, for example, it was not unusual to see $2,000 listings on Reverb.
Hopefully that history of boldfaced scalping doesn’t repeat itself. But I wouldn’t expect to find a bunch of deals, either.

How did you go about desoldering the battery connector from the board?
I’ve got all the other tools but the one thing holding me back from this mod is that I don’t have a heat gun.
Probs a v basic question… So today I tried to hook the M8 up to my macbook pro for the first time. I assumed it ould just pop up as an audio input / output option in sound preferences, and also in live. But it isn’t doing so. Does it need to be put in usb mode or something???
Theres obviously something wrong. Its not coming up in the audio midi devices either…
Oh that’s a good idea, might give that a shot tonight.
