So does that mean that the USB adapter send out originally is not the same as the one used for MIDI?

Not to mention there's nothing really stable to backup and load carts for mac OSX.
This will be a god send!
Agreed. I had to put Windows on my Mac. It'll be great to have something I can just plug in and use on OSX.

Re: Live Recording (15 replies, posted in Audio Production)
Ok, well then what you mentioned would probably be easiest. Do you use a mic to address the crowd or anything? Or does the club have one up to announce acts or anything? It's just that, if you don't have a single mic, people won't really be able to hear that the set is live. It'll sound like a studio recording. Unless it's just the set in general that people want.
If you're going to be doing more live recordings in the future, and you don't have a whole lot of money to spend (like me) maybe you could pick up a pair of these.

They're very inexpensive for condenser mics, and they sound pretty good on a room. They're cardioid, so you could place them in the same location pointed about 90° apart, or you could space them apart. Whichever sounds better.
*EDIT* Not to mention they look pretty badass.
Also, I would strongly suggest recording directly to an external drive. It'll tax your laptop less, and, for a long recording, it's essential that nothing go wrong.

Re: Live Recording (15 replies, posted in Audio Production)
What do you use for equipment? Do you us FX? Does your mixer have sub groups or any unused aux sends? Do you have any unused Mic channels and any mics (preferably condenser) you could use to Mic the room?

Wheyhey!
It works!
I've got a commodore 64 running Prophet64, which is syncing to an Atari 1040 ST running MaxYMiser, which is syncing to an gameboy running LSDJ
It's a total nerd-synch-fest over here!
This is the sexiest daisy chain I have ever heard tale of.

Re: musical experience? (53 replies, posted in General Discussion)
...I'd love to be able to play a few instruments.
So get started! I know it can feel daunting and like you won't ever be a prodigy now because you didn't start when you were 4, but who cares? There is plenty of good music that doesn't require the most musicianship. You don't have to be a concert pianist to play a chord. And you don't have to be Buddy Rich to keep a beat. Keep doing what you do with what you have, and learn things you're interested in.

Re: musical experience? (53 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I took piano lessons as a kid and then picked up trumpet from 6th to 12th grades. All that while, my true passion was in playing trapset. I taught myself by playing along with music. I took a few lessons, but only for a few months. I think more than anything just the love of music and developing a musical ear have helped me with things like trackers. Anyone can do them. It might progress slowly at first, but listen to a lot of others' work and listen to a lot of genres. It can't hurt to do some basic theory online. There's all sorts of that you can find.

Re: i need a gameboy advance (15 replies, posted in Trading Post)
Petaluma /pɛtəˈluːmə/ is a city in Sonoma County, California, in the United States. In the 2010 Census the population was 57,941.
Located in Petaluma is the Rancho Petaluma Adobe, a National Historic Landmark. It was built beginning in 1836 by General Mariano Guadalupe Vallejo, then Commandant of the San Francisco Presidio. It was the center of a vast 66,000 acre (270-km²) ranch stretching from Petaluma River to Sonoma Creek. The adobe is considered one of the best preserved buildings of its era in Northern California.
Petaluma is a transliteration of the Coast Miwok phrase péta lúuma which means hill backside and probably refers to Petaluma's proximity to Sonoma Mountain.
Petaluma has a well-preserved, historic city center which includes many buildings that survived the 1906 San Francisco earthquake.
Come on guys, everybody knows this
*facepalm* How could I have FORGOTTEN?! We spent a whole semester on this in Geography of Northern California 101!
