  1. The last time i ate dope brownies ..i spent the whole evening tripping my tits off; completely unable to move ..lest remove the ridiculous smirk from my face as i was unable to turn off the tv with some parliamentary rubbish on it.. Seeing tony blair walking out of the box, round the room & hearing the parliamentary jeers bounce round the room like i was sat in the middle of a demented orchestra pit ..was quite enough of a 'fear and loathing..' experience for me. and given thats the level you can get to on a good dose of dope ..i decided never to down a big dose of mushies. ..and that was the most wasted i ever got in my little spate of druggery.
  2. interesting ..nice use for an old radio (allbeit one should avoid sabotaging antique ones ;) ) good work :)
  3. secret prize for the most outstandingly mundane, yet bizarre find on google maps ;)
  4. for the large condenser mics: B2 - the dual diaphragm one: http://www.behringer.com/B-2PRO/index.cfm?lang=ENG b1 - Single Diaphragm: http://www.behringer.com/B-1/index.cfm?lang=ENG c-2 - the small stereo twin pair mic set, provided with mounting brackets: http://www.behringer.com/C-2/index.cfm?lang=ENG all cheap as chips ...and not half bad ;)
  5. btw ..totally off topic ..tho i also have the behringer stereo pair ...another cracking little bargain ..tho be aware they are a little over sensitive to bass at close range (afew inches); so close range vocals, 'as is' are the only thing they arent ideal for.
  6. artesia has a 88 key weighted maudio keystation ..how might dissassembly be of service ? ;) btw talking of bang for buck mics ..have afew of the behringer b series ones kicking around here ..and they give incredible & very professional results for the money ;) ...record vocals on them in as dry an environment as possible, then add some boost eq in the warmth and presence regions as desired ..add some good quality reverb ..and bang ! ..slick, polished results :)
  7. can i mug you for the deeds to your house ? ;) what a place to live, great for a lil' party & working with power saws at 4am without rousing the neighbours ;) mind i will soon enough be living in the middle of nowhere with some mates.. no more worrying about the 3am mixing sessions :)
  8. DAMMIT ! - theres a whole site full of this stuff: http://www.mapofstrange.com/ ;)
  9. tis a job for an oscilliscope.. ...mind, i know this sounds a little daft, tho see that it is actually getting the 48v phantom power ..it wont be the first time i confounded myself having forgot to turn that switch on ;)
  10. neato ..hmm that german power station has the weirdest geometry on those wastelands above .really odd the patterns they chouse to work in there. aah, the crop circle ;) ..bout time apparently some russian folks have been writing colourful messages on the roofs of housing blocks in order to 'defile' googlemaps ;)
  11. its a mighty fine place for mass gatherings of rastas & their little bongo circles.. without anyone noticing ....plus bonus free sauna :) ...and yes you really can walk under a cooling from anywhere on the periphery ..its on massive stilts ;)
  12. if it mirrored cronic alcohol/benzoate withdrawl ...then you would be truely screwed ;)
  13. ever wondered what the cooling stack of a power station looked like from above ? Cottam Rd @53.308290, -0.781250 http://maps.google.com/ enter that into googlemaps & click on satellite view :)
  14. in now concurr on that (with exception of the malbro smokin...) ..this afternoon its barfing here again
  15. sweeeet ...yeah the forums working better than ever now ;D
  16. he's given that server hamster its yearly amphetamine allowance.. ..yup its certainly working now :) yey.
  17. i can draw penguins... (Ubutu on web, Sindows on music pc (dependant on vst's and cubase like a crackwhore))
  18. hell.. (jaundiced look...) that makes me the meth-daddy then ;)
  19. regarding the dac question: the dac of choice in the matrix 12 appears to be an exar mp7523; there's one on each voice. the exar mp7523 is a 15v, 8 bit cmos chip. http://pdf1.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/view/120012/EXAR/MP7523.html
  20. replyings getting difficult rn ..the forum is sucking on serverage... you'd be surprised about presets.. in certain circles they still get used alot ..and there are lots and lots of presets now ...not a big fan of them myself mind ..lol. but even i have to admit starting with a basic patch and elaborating on it is useful from time to time ..lol. audio in poly evolver can be routed any manner of ways depending on the patch configuration. its possible to add audio in to the matrix 12, expander and m1000 by making a switchable insert which replaces the noise source.. i may do this to the m12, but i have other things to tend to rn. well, on the possible m1000 upgrade ..a number is all that most people would need, and they would use a pc editor / interface with full readout to ammend this issue for programming. i dont generally get a hum issue ...make sure your audio gear is on the same mains feed and you dont have any ground loops thus. you can gate your sounds for cleaning up any low level noise. the m1000/6r has some major lag issues on some perameters, because its cpu is woefully underpowered for realtime & rapid response. the m12 is plenty fast enough for most mods, and mods in real time. however all of them could be a smidge (milliseconds) faster on attack of the envelopes ..which makes highly percussive sounds a little soft & lends these synths to being best at bass, horns, pads & effects. this could equally be a software or a hardware lag issue.. and maybe improved upon with the m1000 mod. the keyboard response could be better & it is a little finicky to get it 'tuned' right to the desired velocity response... it does work, but it could be better and could be changed for another. however its not the sort of handicap that'd impair the typical demands of playing live or for non taxing studio stuff.. it could of course have no velocity response at all; like the roland jupiter ..and that would really suck ;) ..however for critical performance, using another keyboard / a dedicated controller maybe advantageous.
  21. Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 2883584) (tried to allocate 311296 bytes) in /home/midibox/public_html/forum/Sources/MessageIndex.php on line 306 anyone been seeing this alot ? :)
