Tom Cosm had a great workshop on this subject that covered most of the basics. I think it's available free on his website under tutorial videos, 'on live electronic music pt1-5'.

I don't think it's a very attractive piece overall, but I have the remote zero and am happy with it. I only hope that novation's interface, software wise, is incredibly transparent, unlike the remote-sl stuff.

Either way, this should be an interesting addition to consider.

I'm wondering if with max for live this device will control/respond to some monome patches? Could be interesting.

Yeah, I'm talking being out of tune on really basic musical patches. They're in tune with other synths from the same company, but out of tune with some others. Really strange. I'll have to do some deeper testing on it.

If I load up several instances of, say rob papen stuff, NI stuff, some logic stuff, how come they tend to be out of tune with each other. I figure having these all tuned correctly would be a very basic thing! Sometimes when you change the osc or fundamental tuning of a patch it changes the character...

Nice stuff!

Yel 2 was dope + longest live set I've heard.

I would love to see a movie that tastefully portrayed the reality of the international techno scene from the perspective of a successful touring musician. I have NO idea if this is that, but it would be cool to give the culture at large an honest glimpse into this world.
