just to update...


got an email from them and the sale is on now with the re-launch/re-brand in a couple of weeks

as far as i can tell its limited un-sold sound control stock so i'd call up the branch in question if you got specific items in mind

as a lot of you will know Sound Control went into liquidation and have had assets frozen and all sorts (hence the Turnkey shutdown) the good news we've been waiting for is six branches have been brought by 'Reverb' and to celebrate they are relaunching in 16 days with 20% of EVERYTHING (no exception...

surprised me but i think korg coming in like this means people like novation & m-audio etc have to re-think their prices!

i got my monitors, keyboard, soundcard and software there :| Didn't know it was overpriced. It was in tube distance 4 me so thats why I always used it. What other shops are there in London like Turnkey? I don't want 2 go on some 2 hour journey to a warehouse tho.. I'm talkin about somewhere in / ne...

any ideas on what times particular activities are happening
(especially the talks!)

theres a few tracks up on this page with an arabic/eastern vibe

i used to work them a few years back

their new compilation album is coming summer 08 and features a fair bit of sukh knight

also, agree with Blackdown's post

Worth checking the Hell EP he did with Gravediggaz and the Nearly God album he did with Bjork, Terry Hall and Neneh Cherry amongst others. If he can get close to that level again, I'd be quite happy to hear it, but I'd rather hear him being Tricky than trying to do dubstep. oh yes, the last update ...

randomstepshift has a sequencer for triggering...where by you can sequence the offset (where the sample playsback from)...how many times, and can also sequence what pitch, part of a sample is pitched at...so part of a sample can be pitch up and the other parts of it pitched down etc etc... can't be...

agree with the above - more interest in the scene = more newcomers and more 'noob' questions because they don't bother to search or use the stickies (unfortunately) the amount of posts on monitors etc despite Decklyn's attempt to centralise matters.. much like Wub's recent attempts too theres really...

the mix!

just a question of spending the time and getting the mechanics right

as for structure, need to get out of the 'song' mindset, intro, verse, chorus, verse chorus, bridge, etc etc

been waiting for this.... quality

...i want the sound of a real darbuka... Yellow Tools - Culture is the best VST for 'offhits' and you can tweak it. A lot. i've heard a lot of good things about yellow tools culture too (but nnever used or heard results myself) seems like you do get some control too... http://www.yellowtools.us/cp2...

agree with £10 Bag - go 2nd hand and get direct drives to start with

Spencer - quality improv mate! i like the balance between structure and improvised evolution - i'm in r5 and doing live stuff - i tend to get lost in my own improv and so i've started sequencing snapshot changes on some stuff - eg a background synth, some bleeps&clicks, or even my main bassline ...

but could you run the channel that you want to be effected out the interface, through the effects, back into another channel in fruity loops, but not have the effected channel coming out of the interface?? that should eliminate the feedback loop? agreed, thats what i was gonna say but i thought he ...

so many folks jump on gearslutz and are convinced they need a $2000 mic pre before they can start using hardware... sure it'll make things nicer but fuck it, you need to build vibes for a dancefloor!!! i know plenty of folks who have shit linked up to weird guitar pedals, shitty mics, busted speake...

at the square gig earlier this month Milanese, Ital-Tek and Bass Clef were all live there were even gaps in Milanese's set (ie complete silence) when it seemed he was loading up the next 'session' Bass Clef gets his instruments out and strolls about Milanese and Ital Tek were on laptop/controller du...

just to add... i used to have a micro korg and its a piece of kit thats well built (korg) and go a very long way once you get to grips with the computer patch programmer also synthesis hasnt been revolutionised in the last couple of years so it may be worth looking at older gear - generally the Acce...
