    LOL, yeah, I'm a big fan of the Europop. :) I'll work on some surf music though so I can have more of a San Diego sound for you :) None of the songs you mentioned were produced on the Karma. My all Karma songs are:

     

    Almost Pink

    Homeward Feeling

    Z Drum and Bass Improv

    Roland's Lead Improv Demo

    Pink Like Me

    Tube Jam

    Roland's Clav Improv Demo

     

    and I did them all the first night I had the KARMA. I did an all-nighter I was having so much fun!

     

    The sounds on Interpolation as I recall were a MemoryMoog and some Ilio/Spectrasonics sample CD's played through an E4 Platinum sampler.

     

    Roland,

     

    Very interesting! I like the overall sound of the stuff at the top of your page better than the stuff at the bottom. Was the stuff at the top professionally mastered? Was it recorded diffently?

     

    Interpolation is absolutely the bomb! I keep listening to it again and again. Do you own a Memorymoog? I didn't see it in your gear list.

    Mike, your first link doesn't work, but the second one took me to the Cafe Insomnia page on MP3. Interesting variety of material. As a wild guess, I'd venture that you guys have listened to some Tool somewhere along the way.

     

    I especially liked the guitar sounds - very nicely recorded. The bass peaks distort a bit in Blinded; perhaps that was intentional.

     

    Good overall concept, and you guys should follow your vision. I would suggest maybe trimming the intros and moving the vocals up a little sooner. It's better to jam at the end than at the beginning, usually.

     

    I'm looking forward to hearing the new stuff that you're producing.

    I was the model for the statue (yeah, right!). ;)

     

    If you can find the photos of the SSS dinner, you can see me there. A link is posted in one of the threads on SSS and also in one of the threads here on The Keyboard Corner. :)

     

    Thanks for the very generous compliments. Glad you liked the pseudo-guitar. I would have played it on the six-string, except I suck. ;)

    Roland (Rollerator) - You've really got that EuroPop sound down - not exactly what I expected from San Diego. ;) Your mixes are all fat and warm. I'm curious to know how much of this was produced on the Karma.

     

    I Know Some Things - Interesting use of sampled speech.

     

    Anthymyst - I like your used of arpeggiators.

     

    Chromatica - Well-suited for film. This would sound good behind an action or chase sequence.

     

    Interpolation - Excellent sequencer effects. Reminds me of a happy version of Tangerine Dream. I really, REALLY like the sounds on this one (Karma?). Interesting panning effects.

    Martin, I like the background tracks a lot. What synthesizers did you use? How was the track recorded?

     

    The "rap" sounded a little out of time to me. Maybe that's what you wanted, but I'm used to hearing raps over a strong beat. This is beautiful music; I found the vocal to be distracting. I would have enjoyed the music by itself more. Perhaps you can write a new background for the words and do an instrumental mix of this song.

     

    Very beautiful sounds, beautifully recorded.

    Hey, Tinder!

     

    Welcome! I've heard good things about Happy The Man; I'll have to check them out.

     

    I'm a fellow Logic freak. Most of the music I've produced would not have been possible without this program (and I'm NOT an endorser). In fact, this past year, I have "rescued" a number of half-finished compositions that I couldn't seem to finish in Vision. Opcode's demise was GOOD for ME. ;)

     

    I'm looking forward to working with Emagic's ES2 plug in. I use the ES1 and EXS24 today. The ES1 has some real BALLS!

     

    How do you like the XV5080? It's on my short list.

    Phil, If you're serious about a the K2600, consider dealing with Sweetwater. They have a great Kurz tech support team there. I've owned three Kurzweils, and two of them needed attention to get the kinks worked out. Dealing with anyone other than Sweetwater would have been a nightmare. Sweetwater also has some excellent Kurz soundware. I highly recommend their Total Stereo Session Drums CD. You will NOT want to live without it.

     

    Tritons rock, too, but in a different way. It all depends on the sound that you're going for.

     

    I'll hold off until you get your MasterLink. You don't do MP3's, I don't do cassettes. ;)

    Phil "graypencil" Kelly - good to have someone with your experience on board! Any chance we can hear some of your work?

     

    RobT - Don't worry, dude, you're not the only bassist who hangs out here. We DO try to discourage g****r players, though, for obvious reasons. ;)

    Welcome, Kendall! Hey, have you seen an Aussie film called 'He Died With A Falafel In His Hand'? Wickedly funny! Be sure to contribute to the Let's Hear It thread when you have some MP3's to share.

    Now for the gear list:

    Yamaha SY77

    Korg 05/RW

    ...

     

    Ronald, good luck on your projects! That SY77 is a COOL synth! I remember wanting one badly but not having room in the budget at the time.

     

    As an American, should I pronounce your handle er-pee-wee or er-pee-VEE?

    Mike, Welcome! Those are some lofty aspirations. :)

     

    If you have any of your stuff available for download (MP3's, etc.), post the link on the Let's Hear It thread so we can hear what you've been up to. Good luck with the violin (find a GOOD teacher)!

    Paul, will do! Looking forward to it. I'm sorry, I assumed that since you had a separate thread for your song that you didn't know about the Let's Hear It! thread. It happens fairly regularly.

     

    I'll let you know what I think, and I won't even feel compelled to voice my opinions in silly rhymes. http://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/wink.gif

    He thinks his song is a hit and this forum is filled with sex maniacs. I, for one, am glad that he neglected to post his song on the Let's Hear It thread, because I'm rather enjoying the prurient Dr. Seuss angle. Thanks, steadyb!!!! http://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/smile.gif
