I like the visuals of space, galactic goodness.

So cool!!!

A 2024 take on psychedelic!? I like it 👍

New music and an accompanying video! Hope you all enjoy it had fun making it! Thanks to everyone who follows my art I truly appreciate you all. Let me know what you think of this latest vid. Cheers!

Hi i just got the dfam thing . And im having problems getting it to work in midi mode. I have it connected to my Digitakt with midi but I can't get it to just keep a steady beat. With the Digitakt. If i put triggers in Digitakt it will play them. But not a steady beat. I have midi channels channel in Digitakt set to 7 and defam thing set to 7. Noy sure what im doing wrong. Would be great if you could help me out thanks

Just got a good deal on a B2600 in the Christmas Edition with some cables stuff... will have to take a look/listen for myself.

Man, I can't believe I missed another stream. We were out at Reptile Gardens. Hopefully I'll catch the next one. Good to see you up, again 🤟😎

It's amazing you have any time at all for music with that much going on. Cheers😀

Nice!!!! Many of those keyboards I didn't even know you had, although I did know you've always had the Moog Grandmother. I used to own a Kawai K5000 S just like yours. It was a nice and very different type of synth "additive" as you already mentioned. However, after having it for a year and a half or so, I decided it wasn't for me and sold it with no regrets. However, the sound is different, so that might be the advantage of owning one. Also, I admire that Ensoniq ASR X Pro. I was absolutely shocked to see that on the table. Wow!!!!! I know it's still a work in progress, but it looks like it is coming together nicely already. Sweet setup!!!

Very cool man. Glad to see you are finding the time to get back to what looks like some chaotic sanity.

Great setup my dude Love the wood end cheeks on the ASM HYDRA! I had one of those MACKIES and I wish I never got rid of it and you can’t find them anywhere

Tight

Very cool sir! I look forward to hearing the noises you crank out of it. :)

Looks good brother going live love it!! Hopefully catch the next one

Nice setup👌

Good advice. I'll take it!

This is awesome!!

Nice melody. Very true. 5 desktop Moog's are more fun than One.😀

Amazing gas therapy. Awesome soundscaping brother and two beauty pedals!!

A little advice included for those like myself Gassing hard for the Moog Muse or some other new piece of gear. All the best to you all ❤

lets get it

love it...

Really Liking your stuff. Maybe you would like some of ours? Like the old skool vibe.

NICE!

👌

Beautiful stuff.👌

We love our Labyrinth, and it works great with a DFAM, M32, and SubH. We're very Avant Garde, experimental, and its prefect for us.Not sure you'd like our stuff though. Glad you're getting time for music. Cheers.

Trying something new with talking then a jam at the end. Let me know if you guys like this format. Go check out my new track and video The Right Circles!

I don’t take Synth Samurai seriously. He seems to be “in the tank” with Behringer and it’s ok but but not my speed.

Respectfully, Polly Popo was using the MPC for years before he “discovered” that the modern MPC didn’t sound good to him. That’s illogical. I had to check out on him. Seems like he doesn’t know his own mind. As far as Roger Linn, that man does know his own mind and speaks it. I assume that something happened in the background and maybe they came to an agreement. They sent him a machine and he gave his honest opinion. He likely wasn’t compelled to say positive things about it. Good to see his inputs. I think he’s not getting back into the ring with Akai. It’s a case of what you saw is all you’re getting. His perspectives. As far as how the MPC sounds, it has a higher bit order converters than the vintage units, thus doesn’t sound bit crushed like the vintage units do.

You need to put an epilepsy warning on that! You have an original, interesting astetic to your work. Good job.

Truely awesome

LFG Love how loud and over the top it is sonically.

Great stuff man! Very cool video and great sounds

New video for my latest track I hope everyone enjoys it! Had a ton of fun making both the music and video!

Damn brother! U musta been a vinyl hoarder in a previous life! Hehe j/k good luck!

Liked and subscribed.

My first Blue Meanie 2600 the VCA section died and Sweetwater sent a replacement the next day. 1 year later it is the center of my studio paired with the Barp Odyssey. I have 34 vintage synths and just about all of the Behringer synths. Just got the Kobol and that sounds fantastic

People who are ignorant come up with all kinds of conclusions. Lynn never had issues with Akai company products, it was against a person. I use my Live with anything and everything as it has become the main go to, I would not change it for anything else. I agree some workflow things can be updated (hopefully 3.0 one day soon) but if you really know your gear, there's not much to complain about in comparison. I also don't think the debate started with quality as much as it is supposed to be the company's flagship device and should have top notch internals. In other words, your compact car and the rest of your line up should not have all the bells and whistles as your luxury sedan if you are paying luxury tax. At the end of my day, I can care less cause the industry standard is still 16bit/44.1hz, same as the SP-404 and every other sampler, unless you are making music for movies which is 48hz or releasing Tidal Hifi music at 24bit/192kHz in which case you leave that to professional audio engineer. Aside from that, running track-outs through Analog Heat or couple 500 series is warm enough to call it a happy day. All the negativity and hate is so unnecessary. P.S. Poli needs to take his head out of his a$$ and stop listening to idiots. He went and spent Rossum rabbit hole bucks and realized the mistake. He was a happier and better man as a modular, humble MPC teacher than following goofballs spreading 10yrs of the same BS about "converters"! Let's carry on and.make music!!! And for the people that don't know how to sample on a "sampler", you got your damn Stems....now what's the next dumb complaint!!???

I agree with you 1,000% I currently use an MPC one I'm content with it I add color later with plugins or I'm running threw my Allen & Heath GLD desk 💪🏿✌🏿

Thanks for sharing, subscribed 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

You should do the A/B sound test against your MPC One.

The danger of watching anti-GAS videos like this is it makes me think "WOW my GAS and gear hoarding is much more reasonable" LOL. In all seriousness I really enjoyed the video. Some great thoughts (and gear) there.

The MPC ONE is all metal where the hell did you get your MPC ONE at?????????????????????????😊

I also have the mpc x se, i love it 😎

I agree with much of what you said. Regarding the Song Mode feature, it's pretty much the same as it has always been since the beginning of the MPC, with several enhancements over the years, the current version being the best of them all. I believe the song mode is just part of the traditional MPC workflow, which I think is absolutely great for pattern-based rhythm sequencing. It's workflow is structured based on a drum machine. However, if you like a linear style sequencer, the Akai Force has that as well as the Ableton Live style clip launching workflow. I have an original MPC X synced up to an Akai Force side by side and they both work well together. I sequence the drum parts on the MPC X while using the Force to record and midi sequence melodies played from all of my hardware synthesizers. It's a great standalone hardware setup. All I use a computer for now is to track out into Protools and mix. Are you sure the converters on the current MPC X SE are an improvement over the converters of the original MPC X? So, the new MPC X SE has Burr Brown converters? I'm gonna research that. BTW, I like the excerpts from "The Last Starfighter" that you included. It's one of my favorite sci-fi movies from the 80's and I kind of wish I had it on DVD.

Couldn't finish the video. The cut-aways were ridiculous and annoying

Linn the creator has spoken, and I agree with him. The debate about old versus new MPC is moot. Use ever model that fits your needs as a musician
