Snowman Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I tried using softsynths but I cant get it to work properly on my Cakewalk Sonar studio.

Anaon Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 I only use virtual instruments but I would love to replace them by the real "monsters" My favourite VSTi are the M-Tron, the NI B4 for hammond sounds, and the Mda epiano for Fender Rhodes sounds.

Snowman Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 I tried the Roland V-synth GT yesterday. My good how good sounds it has! And easy to use. I had a Roland D-10 for decades ago and I was very pleased with it. The last 10 years or so I have been a Korg fanatic, but this V-synth sounds very impressive.

psionic11 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 It's been 3 weeks now, and I'm still loving and learning all about my new Alesis Fusion. Somehow my original post here a week ago looks like it didn't go through -- good thing, because I was really ecstatic and spouted off a laundry list of all the great features it has. Best $399 I ever spent. Anyway, I think Limeloaf and I are the only Fusion owners here? Lime, be sure to check out the latest instrument to be "ported" into the Fusion: the Moog by kpr. Should make it even sweeter re-creating some classic Rush synth sounds I also got a cheap Squier, and will be getting a decent bass soon. Both going thru a Lineport UX1 to dial in some Lifeson/Lee goodness. Goal is to do all the parts to aboot a dozen Rush synth songs, programming synth parts and drums in MIDI, and recording guitars (and maybe *some* vocals) onto the Fusion's hard disk. That way I'll have instant access to Rush-in-the-box to jam to when the muse strikes. Songs I'm considering (guitar solos will be the hardest part for me): Subdivisions (ah, the glory days) Turn the Page The Weapon Red Sector A Distant Early Warning Countdown Big Money (massive project!) Where's My Thing Tai Shan Marathon (vocals a huge challenge) Ghost of a Chance Hyperspace Losing It (synth sub 4 violin solo) Show Don't Tell Imitation is the highest form of flattery, right?

psionic11 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 (edited) Woot, talk about lucky deals! I just put a down payment on the disappearing 88-key Fusion 8HD.... and got a bargain price of $799 for a factory-sealed-in-the-box beastie (its original MSRP was like $2899)! So not only will I have one of the better keybeds around at any price point, but I'll now have 2 identical synths to make big MIDI mixes with. For $1099 I get these features: 16 line level inputs for HD recording 4 inputs for sampling and recording and/or effects 16 outs for mixdown 120GB of storage space for patches, samples, songs a 61-key synth an 88-key synth FM, virtual analog, physical modelling (not so good), sample playback 128 MB of RAM (upgradeable to 768MB total for $99 x 4) The soundsets include good drumsets, classic FM sounds like the electric pianos and, thanks to respected and long-established Hollow Sun and kpr sound developers as well as user-contributed sounds, sample libraries/waveforms from vintage Moog, Oberheim, Prophet, Roland, Korg, Yamaha, Waldorf, ARP, Mellotron, and even Casio and Speak n Spell... the rompler capability isn't limited to the onboard RAM like the Fantom/Motif/M3 workstations, since the Fusion has an internal hard-disk to read user-made multisamples from. The weakest points of my workstations are its effects and having a linear sequencer instead of a pattern- or step-based sequencer, although it can loop sections for some pattern-like composing. Not really an issue either, considering I'll be doing some sequencing from the PC anyway. Not bad for under $1200.... *does the happy dance* Edited March 28, 2008 by psionic11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocojoe Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Hi, I haven't been to the Rush Forum in a while and I feel selfish for coming back just to ask a question but I didn't know who to ask. Anyway, what exactly are the main differences between the Korg TR88 and the Korg Triton Extreme 88? I'm looking to save up to buy one of these.

psionic11 Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Choco, just doing a quick bit of research on the net, it seems the main differences are that the Extreme has more features than the original TR workstation -- more sounds more polyphony dual voice engines the Tube CD-R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowtothesky Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Has anyone checked out this new Moog?

Xanadu93 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Not much of a pro or anything, but I play a little keyboards. Keyboards: Yamaha YPT-210 Casio Casiotone MT-520 (don't use anymore) I also use GarageBand at my school for my Rush medley projects. Looking into getting the Moog Little Phatty someday..... if I can get some cash! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DifferentStages87 Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Im bored, so I thought I would list my MIDI controllers and Softsynths: Edirol PCR-80, 61 Keys M-Audio Keystation 49e, 49 Keys Duh! Softsynths: Arturia Minimoog M-Tron Crystal ARP Running on Garageband on my Mac Mini. I have a great Subdivisions sound, for garageband users. Cant remember the precise preset name, but I change the modulation on my 49e because it stays in one place. not an annoying pedal. A bit of Chorus, and a bit of reverb Sounds good.
