carsten_the_dane Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 HiFirst, just wanna say i have searched the forum for this topic, no luck (maybe you can do better :))Ok, i have just bought 2 old C=64 and now i wanna build a synth and a seq. heres a few question (might as well put them together).1. more like a request: I have a hard time figuring out what these machines really can do. It seems to me that the sound examples have been "fatted up" with logic or reaktor or something. It would be nice with some examples that says: 1-SID midibox and sequencer or something equal without anything else added.2. should i build a midibox or FM - i want to use it mainly for a fat bassline and drums. (hmm, not sure you can answer this, but perhaps, you could give me your opinion)hmmm, i had some more, but cant remember them, right now #1 seems must important to meCarsten Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kokoon Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 bassline = SIDdrums... i doubt you'll get acceptable drums from any of those 2... maybe "drums" with a bit of imagination :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK. Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 Hi Carsten,for "dry" SID sounds, check the live session MP3 of Julian: http://www.monome.de/ (58 MB...)The MBFM can do very nice synthetic drums with extremely deep bases (so deep, that I have to reduce the frequency range below 63 Hz), also the modulation possibilities are very excotic (the big advantage of a synthesizer compared to a sampler).MBSID can just do the typical SID drum sounds - all geeks will notice this immediately ;-)But if you are looking for a TRxxx or natural drum replacement, both synths are not sufficient for your needs (I guess that this is what Kokoon wanted to say?)Best Regards, Thorsten.

kokoon Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 yeah exacly. the SID drums are really cool but probably not for anyone. they probably would be considered by the majority as "bad quality" and non-realistic. but if you're after that - this is the real thing.

the_dane Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 HeyThanks for the replies. I´m not really looking for "classic" drums, a synth is a synth and should sound like one - im old fashioned :)I think i´ll have both synths. can the sequencer control both the SID and the FM?

TK. Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 can the sequencer control both the SID and the FM?The sequencer can control any MIDI device :)Best Regards, Thorsten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
