they are actually amazing.  I really want to get one if possible!! :-D  Depending on what happens in the next week or so... I maaaay be able to take a few to blip too ;-)

Hmmmm.... wander it would hold up to being jumped around with.... ? ;-)  (do has 7800 too, currently pretty useless to me!)

ps. Does anyone know if the Harmony would be compatible with this?

Least we forget what was big in the 90's!

kinda cool :-)

This is an early demo I recorded with it.  Details at: http://hackmeopen.com/?page_id=193& … amp;t=22.0

I'm working on a case for mine atm.

Well, if you are in a situation where you are just going to "press play" on a PC tracker, then why not break it into parts and drop it into something like Ableton Live or (better still) Maschine and use a cool surface to control your sequencing with the laptop shut?  It seems a bit silly when you have all that computing power to just hit play in a tracker and jump around.  Especially if you've already rendered the Famitracker waveforms. 

If you do keep it running in the tracker, you could potentially add "loop" points and choose when to break the loops or switch channels / parts on and off on the fly (which is what I do on the Amiga).  I also channel split and put (in my case) CH 1&4 and 2&3 on separate channels of a Pioneer DJM800 which has mappible effects processor and dedicated pass filters.   Or I use a couple of Kaos pads if I can't take the 800.  Sometimes, due to the sound system, instruments need turning up and down to sit better in the mix on the fly too so it's worth keeping a listen to the track.  :-)

yes.  That's what I use to test all the time :-]

Me and Fenner's are on the same flight on Wednesday.  We arrive at 6:30-am-ish on Thursday, then I grab a phone at the AP (mental note to remember!)  and head out to Shinjuku.  I think the plan was to do some kind of Diseny experience thing that day (still the plan Dosprompt?) - so if anyone wants to come along give us a hoy! (with phones, we should be able to orchestrate meeting you there)  Then it's probably a matter of getting prepared for 4 days of party party.  :-]   Will let you know my number when I get it!

I'm heaps excited - just put aside all my clothes to take (wooo!) -  but also working hard on a new track.  Just spent 20 hours with 3 text editor windows open hacking together a new track for the 2600.  I'm 1.2kb over my 4kb limit (inc. playcode) at the moment so drastically out of memory... but that's because I'm at 468 bpm (or 468 calls to the sound registers anyway) to get the tempo / kick sound I want. :-]  It's why we all use this hardware after all isn't it?!

ps. I'm in Japan until Nov 1st if anyone wants to hang out and do things around town.
