Does this work with the Q MIDI command on LSDJ? (to send MIDI notes to external gear).
unless there were significant changes made vs the original LSDJMC2 design by Firestarer and also used by Low-gain, nope.
i wouldn't take it like that. no reason to stop posting totally just because you've posted off-topic here and there (everyone does sometimes)
i used the live gating function back when i had an esx-1, good fun
i'm not sure why you'd go for analog sync over midi since the electribe 2 supports both. it does use an 1/8" jack for analog sync in which is the same as vlocas and since both are korg, i'd imagine the same methods for volcas would work with it. still, if it were me i'd just midi sync
edit: i might be a tiny bit biased 
def not 8bc. we allow nonsense/off-topic threads here and there. 8bc eventually became a situation where things were rarely on-topic
rabbits are awesome too. i mean i love dogs also (except a lot of the smaller breeds), just they're seriously much more of a hassle to take care of than cats
nah. you gotta know cats > dogs. why? because you can leave them alone for a weekend with some food and water without them pooping everywhere and tearing shit up out of boredom/stress 
sorry. i guess you can see how i thought it was situation where you took offense... it wouldn't be the first time a forum member got mad at me for something i had little or nothing to do with over the years (was a much more common issue on 8bc)
i'm confused, but i think you're directing this at me because you're assuming i had something to do with the c saying "Yo dog, have any subwoofer recommendations?" ..you do realize that i'm (almost) never the one who does the tweets, right? i think i've done maybe 4 in the 7 years of this site. this wasn't one of them. we get it, you love subwoofers, but i'm pretty sure this was intended as a light-hearted pun on the word subwoofer and had 0% to do with really anything deeper than that. even if you had been correct in whatever string of assumptions you've made, it probably would have made more sense to pm me, or at least make whatever point you're making clearer because i'm not sure what you're getting at
i'm 1000% for sampling your stuff to play back on other software/hardware live at this point (i've got a very bad back so no way i could carry old e.s.c. setups to gigs anymore).. did my first e.s.c. set in 3 1/2 years on NYE and was playing reconstructed versions of tracks using piggy tracker in live mode on a psp go & a gp2x f200.. all instruments were converted to mono and panned according to if i wanted to run them through my kp2 or not.. worked pretty well.. it's nice to go from hauling out setups that require a handcart to lug all 200+ lbs of it back to setups that fit in a backpack.. eventually might start hauling gear out to shows again, after i get a nice big rack case on casters, but honestly most people don't care if it's coming off the original hardware or not... just try and find whatever ways you can to make it enjoyable for you to perform.. i couldn't do a "press start to play" kind of set myself, i'd go crazy if i didn't have the flexibility to adjust things on the fly (stretch out parts, add effects, etc)
i have a pair of mackie MR5's that are absolutely wonderful. you really don't need anything bigger than a 5" speaker for proper bass response if the monitors are designed well, these things can shake pretty much the whole house if i wanted them too (i actually have the volume trim on the speakers themselves almost all the way down so i won't do this on accident)
edit: also, +1 on Sennheisers.. i have a pair of HD202's that sound great (not monitor quality, but pretty close. they exaggerate the bass a tiny bit, but less than skullcandy headphones or KRK monitors from my experience).. can't beat the price on them, apparently only $25 at this point
subwoofers are rarely involved when it comes to mixing and mastering since their whole point is to boost the bass (and pretty much only put out bass).. studio monitors are designed to have as flat a frequency response as possible, meaning that they neither add nor remove from any frequencies within the standard human hearing range (~20Hz-22kHz), so adding a subwoofer to the equation is only going to make it difficult to properly EQ the mix, i honestly would recommend against involving a subwoofer in the setup
from what i've heard, it's working on pi 2, not on 3
that's probably not what they're getting at, more likely the fact that, from the start) music made with very short samples in trackers has been a large part of chipmusic, despite not using anything we think of as a soundchip in the sense that a game boy or NES has, with it's own synthesizer properties
Considering the rest of the post- genres and what they do (post-rock turning more ambient and experimental, post-punk turning more worldly and theory-minded, etc), post-chip would have to define a tendency on the chip scene and break from it... except, which would this convention be?
This is why I oppose the notion of chip as a genre, because the only characteristic you need to be "chip" is to, well, either use chips, emulate chips, or work with near-chip limitations. And while doing so, you can write house, rock, salsa, tarantella, zydeco, whatever.
So no. I posit that "post-chip" can't be a thing because chip ain't a fucking genre. Unless you decide to do a lot of chip compositions based on the genre stylings of any post- genre and call it post-chip... though I'd say it'd be more accurate to call it chip-post.
God, this is so inane. Look what you make me do. This is embarrassing.
i think there is and has been post-chip for a very long time.. i'd consider breakcore to sort of be post-chip in a way since the whole genre got it's start almost entirely from artists using trackers (in many cases on amiga) and the stylistic choices they made based on the limitations of those trackers persist 20+ years later, even among artists who've never touched a tracker in their lives.. so in that sense, it was influenced by chip music heavily, but clearly has become it's own thing
