I've been interested in a synth lately. The prospect of the vocoder only sweetened the deal.

the vocoder is one of few hardware features of the MK that is stand alone imo there are some neat effects but most of the synths are somewhat limited and stagnant for studio application

good thing its a midi controller problem solved

good buy

I'm just going through some online tutorials now and trying to learn how to work everything on this mini beast.

DaveSavesTheDay 04-13-2009 12:32 PM

Finally found a place. I go to sign the lease tomorrow.

Now I just need to decide what I'm doing next year. I took this year off to try and figure out what I wanted to do but it just opened up more interests. I've been accepted to both Journalism and Advertising at my local university, but I've also got a huge interest in the RCMP. I took a mini-exam for them to see how I would do and I got 97.8% which, apparently, is one of the best scores they've seen recently.

/sigh.

If only I could find some rich girl to support me.

Mike Patton is amazing.

I can't get enough of this album:

There may or may not be a yousendit link to the album somewhere in this Casual tonight.

Aaron 04-13-2009 05:54 PM

I wish I new/was-able to play bass like a bass player. I play like a drummer and don't really know it's potential. I'm a boring player. Suxorz.

Sablate McNuff 04-13-2009 06:06 PM

That just gives you a different approach to writing for rhythm's sake.

Listen to some of the "virtuosos" and really study their technique and style. You'll start to write differently. Don't give up!

Aaron 04-13-2009 06:53 PM

I'm not giving up, I do need to put more hours into practice though. I love guys who have the ability to cover the low end, make the drums and melodic instruments gel and still use it as a solo instrument, without overplaying. Whenever I try to write anything like that I either over play, or lose one of the aforementioned characteristics in the song. I guess I always take the less-is-more-approach a bit too much. *shrugs*

ps. Does anyone else think the bass parts in BTBAM are amazing? I've not seen much discussion of them in this end of mx.

Efrim 04-13-2009 06:54 PM

Good evening.

Aaron 04-13-2009 06:57 PM

Hello.

Efrim 04-13-2009 07:09 PM

I just had me a fine lamb chili meal. What's new round these parts?

DaveSavesTheDay 04-13-2009 07:22 PM

Mmm, lamb chili.

I've never had it nor heard of it but I love both lamb and chili so I'm sure the two would be delicious. Was it just ground lamb?

Sablate McNuff 04-13-2009 07:28 PM

Sounds delectable. I would have used lamb chunks. I like when chili has meat chunks in there, not just ground meats.

Aaron 04-13-2009 07:56 PM

Yeah chunks a better. Especially when they've marinated for so long that they fall apart in your mouth. mmm.

8-ball...cocaine....it's an MSI song, don't worry about it.


What'd you cook, and was it as good the second time around?

same

Spaceman Spiff 04-14-2009 08:29 AM

After another day of messing around and making noise, I have a decent understanding of how to work the MicroKorg. I know (on a very basic level) how to use and alter all the sounds and effects that the thing has. I know how to make presets and edit them in real time.

Now it's a matter of getting good and knowing everything about it.

FunkMetalBass 04-14-2009 08:34 AM

I want to find a cheap vocoder. The microkorg has one, right? Have you tried it out?

Az_Holl 04-14-2009 08:46 AM

[QUOTE=FunkMetalBass;17180277]8-ball...cocaine....it's an MSI song, don't worry about it.

just like some noodles with a tin of tomatoes and some mince meat, pretty average,,,, tasted better the first time, felt better the second time

its funny actaully because we're in these tough economic times (apparently) alot of people are getting like a grand of the governement, and all the people i know that got it are just buying mass amounts of weed and cocain with it :lol:

so yeah good job government
