If you like Korg products you instantly buy a Minilogue. If you don't like Korg products ... i ask why?
Rc505? Beatbuddy?
Tell us what do you need bráh I’m an expert wasting others money...
Less adventurous- Minilogue or Monologue
More adventurous- Koma Field Kit and a ton piezos
A second-hand Digitakt
I would second(hand) that too. I have a digitone and these things are amazing.
Digitakt would be perhaps better for your needs, I don't know. But for 500 you should get a little used one.
As you were asking about elec piano sounds the other day....
Yamaha Reface CP ?
You may even stretch to 2 (DX , CS, YC) if you can get a deal somewhere...I'm constantly thinking about getting the YC ... if I had the budget I'd get all four
What do you want it for? Do you play keys? Pads? You want drums? Synth sounds? Sample based?
Do you have good controllers for your ipad?
Without knowing any of this i would say to look for a segond hand digitakt. Should be around 500. Maybe a little more.
FYI, I'm using the Digitakt as a MIDI clock master over both USB-MIDI and hardware MIDI, so I can use hardware transport buttons
These are the apps I'm currently using that can slave-synchronize to the Digitakt:
TBH, since GR-16 and Gadget and a few synth IAPs, I'm using my hardware synths not as much as I did a few years ago.
Red Panda Tensor. Mangle some loops, make the most of what you already have!
There's also the potential of getting a new/used Behringer Deepmind 6 or Arturia Minibrute 2 as options in addition to the KORG(s). Also the Roland D-05 or Novation Monostation Circuit. So many choices!!
I'm probably going for the Roli Seaboard Block-Touch Block bundle on sale for $50 until October.
The Novation Monostation Circuit is another choice that I'd like too.
Thanks for the extensive reminder
Screw all that normal-sounding stuff. Make Noise O-Coast.
Some fx pedals, or a smaller, more portable bass combo.
A huge collection of rare LP’s
Make noise 0-coast. I fucking love it.
Specially when paired with my beatstep Pro. Just the amount of stuff you can do purely with CV is mind boggling.
People that have midi designer even can access the hidden features using an iPad:-
If you have a digitakt and an O-coast you literally need nothing else to make music with:-
Best part is they keep adding features via firmware updates. They even made a max4live patch to access hidden controls. You will need a midi interface to connect it to the PC though.
Just check out make noises channel. The amount of patch videos and tutorials they have released for this unit is fantastic.
At this moment there are 43!
0-COAST:
There is literally no synth out there that sounds exactly like the 0-coast. And I love that. While it's lack of filter might make you pause the 0-coast can literally be the starting point for your first modular. Just get your own filter module and patch It in if you really need it for more traditional synthesis. Myself I'm pretty happy with the overtone and balance circuits.
Hope that was a good answer for you @RUST( i )K
The 0-Coast looks great. I"m not allowing myself to buy though until I complete the modular synthesis course featuring Ripplemaker (and a Moog app).
Yeah, Ripplemaker settled down my burning desire for an 0-coast. Of course, I haven't clicked play on any of those videos yet.
Well thinking maybe Circuit Mono Station or then thought maybe Korg MS20.
I like touching knobs sometimes.
Waitwut.
I am at a weird place where I am not sure what I want to make my permanent set up.
I just moved into a house and setting up digs so with set up I am thinking where I am I headed.
More production or more performance based.
Behind scenes writing or A/R or onstage doing the damn thing.
I have a book thing I am wanting to finish as well so looking for things to click into place.
I could get into a my whole future of electronic music IMO thing but that is another thread.
Needless to say, I see a huge shift from DJ to performance stuff expediting itself over next year or two.
So my choices are somehow taking that into account I suppose.
I know I want a new midi keyboard because MOD WHEEL is jacked up again but It will do for now.
I am also on fence with bluetooth midi and how much I will rely on it.
I do know I love playing with knobs on things that make noise besides the ole glass screens.........
Humm..
Never even thought about that aspect.
You stalking my threads.....?
LOL
I spent my last 300 on a subpac! Happy I did.
I take a 50 L (US) jacket
What sizes they come in?
LOL
If I had the spare dosh, I’d just get a Roland Gaia which would sit very nicely with my Roland JP-8000. I left hardware alone since I got mobile with iPad music making two years ago. But now iOS has become really good at integrating with hardware!
Dosh.
Interesting.
I’ve seen some pretty big dudes sporting it...but it comes in S2 for a chair as well.
Maybe an aira mx1? It could be useful in each option you described...
