I also think a 8X8 would be fine for me because anything above that price would just be irresponsible on my part given that I see it as more of a novelty then my go to device for writing. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at just how inspirational it will be when writing, I know I was. Whether...

I've been keeping an eye on the MPC500 forum for a while now as i'm tempted to get one to go with my Live set-up. The opinions on there are pretty extreme with some people raving about it, to one guy saying that you should throw it away or give it to your little brother because it is a toy.... There...

Hi Geek I'm very tempted by the 500 too so I've been keeping an eye on the MPC forums to get an idea of what current users make of it. It's mainly positive, aside from grumbles about the need for a OS update and maybe some polyphony issues. The portablility is very appealing and the battery life can...

yea but as far as being an out there tool, is it really worth it? I guess this kinda depends on exactly what you wanna do either in the studio or on stage. Personally i've found that the combination of tactile interface and flexible sample triggering/slicing has really helped me to create or develo...

I'm still using mine with the Runtime version of Max/MSP at the moment but, like itook4lefts says, the patches available through the online community are excellent. MLR and 64Step are both a lot of fun and have had some great functions added to them since being released. I too had to think long and ...

I with you rikhyray. I was looking to get a PadKontrol but the additional features on this make it worth the extra ££ for me. Tis a good point about having samples/seqs to trigger from something computer independent, especially as a fail safe against on stage lappy related problems.

Make sure you have selected the SL as a control surface in the Live preferences otherwise you won't get anywhere. Once you've loaded Zeta into a MIDI track just click on its panel at the bottom of the screen and the Automap should load up auto matically. You can use the editor software to design you...
