they're not really, basically all the same. make a choice and learn the shit out of it and forget the rest of the bullshit.

does any one manually copress their sounds? i automate volumes and eq on certain channels instead of running it through a compression unit. am i stupid? not at all!!! can yield much better results because although compression does get used for levelling sounds automatically reaching for one isn't a...

yeah you're better off with a powered hub. I was wondering.... is they're any way to have a non powered USB hub that is powerful enough to run a couple of controllers? I am thinking if you have a real powerful PSU or whatever. Or is it all down to the hub it self? well laptops have pretty shit PSUs...

yeah you're better off with a powered hub.

so you've got an mpk controller and an apc?

make sure you get a powered usb hub.

i have issues with people that have equipment that doesn't get used, especially kids that get it gifted. but before any more major derailment it is totally my issue and he shouldn't get offended cos he's the one with the apc40.

can you open more than one instance of ableton at a time? im in osx. i just heard someone talking about it in another thread and was wondering if it's even possible? I didn;t think it was. i dont think so, why would you want to though. I think it would be really cool if you could have two instances...

woah...not one duff episode...

i get your points about the way they portay the character and its about the journey etc... but if you don't think the characters are any good to begin with and that the journey is mostly self-indulgent bollox, well then you see where i'm coming from.

yeah i totally get the use of the psychiatrist and symbolism of it all, the thing is what is the point when a character opens up so much yet there's nothing there. if the conclusion of the post-freud america sopranos is looking at is WYSIWYG then fair enough. also i'm not saying sopranos isn't bette...

or you just think it's deeper than it is and it is I who really understand the wholeness of all things

lol i think the characters in sopranos are paper thin tbh, no depth at all. tony is just a dick, there's nothing more to him than the occasional pretence of not being a dick, also massive LOLZ@it going over my head.

rando you really need to break out the manual, you'll get all your answers and more in less time than it takes for someone to reply here.

maybe you've got bad experiences with badly written manuals? the ableton manual is really well written and entertaining for an instruction manual.
