Is there one perhaps that has visible grids that change depending on the meter you choose per drum as in a sequenecer on a computer? cheers J -------------------- Macbook Pro 2 ghz/15"/10.3.4/1 g RAM/x2 monitors/Logic Pro 7.2/Ableton Live 5.0/Reason 3/Fireface 800/PSP Vintage Warmer/Roland JD800/Roland SH101/Arturia Moog Modular/Epiphone Firebird 7/Guitar Rig/Dynaudio BM5a monitors.

Member Groupe : Validating Messages : 76 Inscrit : 08 juin 02 Lieu : London Membre n^o 5,004	Thanks very much for your help - I couldn't find the DR 16, did you mean HR? If he wanted a Hi Hat in 6/8 and a Bass drum in 5/4 would he be able to do that ? Thanks again I really apreciate your suggestion. And they are cheap!

Its great for many styles except 'synthesized electronic music' drums sounds - most of the sounds and more 'realistic', which is what I use it for and I love the results... You can create patterns with it, but I use a computer sequencer (Digital Performer) for that, so I've never tried it...

As far as time signatures, you may have to fudge your different sigs for different instruments. For example, create a bar that adds up to the bass sig and the snare sig (17/8 or whatever it comes out to) and then make it work. You can record patterns without a click to totally personalize your drum pattern, but then you have to be very precise while hitting the buttons on the machine since you can't quantize in that situation. -------------------- Natobasso ---- Bass Guitar.

There's a great new program from Canada that actually does everything you mention in your posting, and more--all in software. It's still being improved, but the developer is a whiz (i.e. intelligent) and it will probably soon become the outstanding creative percussion tool for the Mac. Name? Doggiebox. Get it. -------------------- Cantante

Newbie Groupe : Members Messages : 6 Inscrit : 07 janv. 04 Lieu : San Francisco - US Membre n^o 32,640	I like the SR-16 for its flexibility No expensive updates, no drivers, no operating system crashes. Press the button and it turns on. 4 analog outs and midi in/out thru. With this type of thing there is no conflict with other pieces of software and it has an easy to use interface that does only a limited set of things. I think it is a nice piece to add to a studio, and can always be combined with other pieces, like software and hardware... plus you don't need the computer to use it, you can just plug it into the mixer and tap away... But of course software has its advantages, too. -j Ce message a été modifié par jayzen - dim. 9 janv. 2005, 04:18.
