I found a minty APC 40 mkii locally on FB marketplace. I got it to use with Push 3. Loving it so far.
Worth it for the one button mutes and faders alone.
Yeah, if I could switch to that color I would do it in a heartbeat.
He didn’t deserve it…
also used by Autechre.
New rule?
Name that gear if it isn’t obvious. Some of this stuff looks so damn tasty and I have no clue what it is. Especially the knobby things.
Please .
Interesting. Not that I’m a fan to be honest but good to know all the same, very few mention it. Must be one of the last hardware rack samplers.
If you were interested in @spikysimon’s knobby machine, it’s one of these:
yeah somehow I remember reading the article (20 years ago!) and that sampler standing out. had to google for the list:
Ah sorry yeah I should have said what it was
No worries. Def looks super sweet. Reading up on it now.
Torso T-1 arrived today. Intent is to plug it into things.
My wife (a drummer) and I are talking about our days at dinner:
me: also I got a new black box with knobs and pads.
her: but does it have a lot of lights?
me: yes.
her: good.
Roland SP606, this was my favorite of the old sp samplers I ran through in the early 10s, kinda the grandpa of the mk2, 4 tracks sequencer, sample chopping and two mfx busses. It’s a little clunky to use but the effects sound great.
Holy shit. I’d forgotten all about the hue of those old screens.
This one reminds me a lot of the mpc1000.
D-BEAM baby!!
I absolutely spent like 20 mins this evening playing d-beam synth
We all have buddy. Whether that’s a moment of pride seems to vary greatly. I imagine I looked like someone playing that dancing lightsaber game on the VR headsets, but damn did it feel cool.
How they put out that new 64 thing and called it an APC is beyond me. APC is all about faders and other hands on control.
Soma Ether v2. Intensinos ; go out and have some noisy field recordings.
