I knew it did xOx. But how well does it do performance based sequencing? Would you be able to use it's pads for MPC type playing?
I have never used one of those machines and have read of people saying very warm things about them. I have a buddy who likes x0x style writing, but recently picked up an ASR X.
He had originally considered the yamaha QY 100. Anybody know how this machine compares to the RM/RS?
And with the x0x programming in the machines. Can you edit the notes in real time, like on a 707? Or is it like the tb-303 where once you have written the sequence... press play.. and to edit it you have to stop it again, and go in and tweak the notes. Or can you edit in real time?

Any many other crazy things. (Posted by U&I on KSS):
In your Job Menu you can also insert beat stretch (25%-400%) from beat/bar/measure x-y. So for example a 16bar Hip Hop Loop could break into double time from Bar 4-6 and Half time from beat 6-7 all in the one loop.
Use slice and sequence on drumloop samples. Then use divide drum job to spread the midi data for Kick / hat/ Snare etc over the first 5 midi channels and replace the samples with some of your own custom sounds then experiment with realtime loop remixing just the snares for example for 7-8 variation fills on the one groove.
You can go nuts and ..... use 4/4 at 6 measures, 15/16 for 63 measures, 7/4 for 33 measures and 2/4 for 4 measures all simultaneously in a single section.
Use the polyrythmic tool set of the RS7000 for great middle eastern music work outs... |
