Anyone have a MFB 522 Drumcomputer?

Just wondering what people think of the tone and overall sound of the thing? Did you find the 16 step sequencer limiting?

Im thinking of getting one to sync along with my XoXoX box and Electribe ER1.

Re: Thought of the day: Keeping things interesting.

imo the secret is subliminal modulation and missplaces. if i have a hat sitting between every kick, ill take it back by just a few ms. sometimes ill try a few places all 1-2ms difference, but it makes a big impact on the groove. i also always use a modulated filter. not something obvious to the eve...

Re: steevio on his modular

hi guys, thanks for the kind words, and egg and chips, i dont argue against everyone all the time, i just like to question the 'normal' way of doing things, because with techno there is no 'normal' way to do things. i use the 909 mostly as a clock source, but occasionally use the ride and very ocas...

Re: IS this forum dying?

Common for many forums all over. I think the social sites have more power than forums nowadays... Disagree. I do almost all my chat on forums for various different subjects. Forums get more interesting and targeted response than social sites IMHO. To be fair though I tend to spend a lot more time o...

Re: Playing live without a laptop

why do you wan to abandon ableton and your laptop? I mean i understand that its very stylish and a different workflow when you do it like this, but abeton is a good sequencer and you can route your syths back into it and use abletons effects. I've always found Ableton to be annoying to work with an...

Re: Another How to Make That 'crack' snare/clap?

claps are one of the hardest things to synthesize. the claps you hear on countless techno and house records are usually the analogue ones from the TR909. (if you read the link below its explains how its done, it uses a digital noise source and analogue circuitry) they can easily be disguised by fil...

Re: New Korg analog synth

This thread has made me wonder why Korg hasn't done a proper update of the electribe range recently? The SD versions of the ESX/EMX dont really count as I see it.

I really hope something that can sample with perhaps the Radias/R3 synth engine and usb for data transfer is in the works.
