Equipment / Making Music
October 06, 2001, 01:43:13 PM
Hi there,
I'd really like to have someone up here, talking about the music itself, no release dates, no speculations about further live-shows, just the sound.

I love Juge's site, since he's the only one (-afaic-), having a proper Equipment-section and quite a nice sample-section with constant updates (-till a few weeks ago... Juge? I sent you a mail with sample-excerpts attached and a few new spotted facts regarding the gears. Interested in forwarding to an 'almost complete' Equipment-section? I'd do the work, would be great to see a Prodigy-site with vast musical content, since we have at least... mhm... let me count...none of them.)

So, to make a step into the direction: I'm fascinated by the more uncommon tracks, like Narayan or Climbatize, as they show Liams real musical talent. It's always those tracks, that are less known and played, that are the rockets.
I also think that Smack My Bitch Up is not too clever, musically seen. It surely rocks, but it's not that thing of a musical milestone, as I'd describe Climbatize or Poison.

Well, that's it by now, people with knowledge on the technical site are warmly welcomed. Oh, and all others are surely as well.

SeeYa, Ekko

Equipment / Re: Band + Equipment = Help
January 12, 2002, 05:39:23 PM
There is no MC-505 VSTi or plugin, but the drums of it are avaible as samples (wav and exs24 format) on some sites.
And the synthesizer of it is like the calmer brother of the
TB-303, so you could just use the RB-388 or any
Roland-emulating software to make similar sounds.
The step-sequencer of it can easily be simulated with
Fruity Loops or with bigger quantizing in Cubase's Note-editor.
And the D-Beam Controller is a little similar to Korgs Chaos-pad which is quite cheap but very funky nonetheless. You just touch the pad instead of making wind. On stage it looks interesting as well.

Many Software-samplers are good, but I prefer Steinberg Halion.
If you're going to d/l it somewhere (what I would harshly convict), then you can just d/l them all instead and check sort out 1 by 1.
If you're looking for a Drumsampler, get Waldorf Attack or Native Instruments Battery.

The coolest Vocoders (or is it Vocodi?) I know are the Orange Vocoder and Fusion: Vocode from Opcode.

Oh, and if you don't have a mixer yet, get a Mackie.
It's the best for what your band-setup looks like.
Many channels, rough case (good for live-performance), best service in the world, exellent eq's (really, a mackie-trademark), enough out's & in's and Mackie-mixers have the most pressure of all.
Besides, Liam uses that gear as well. If that is of importance to you.

Yeh.. I have already been working with that chat thing.. there are so many peeps that cant use IRC.. so I have been planning to set up a chat really. And this conversation just proves that there really is demand for that. So, I think there will be a chat coming soon or something.. there are also loads of things happening with the pages.. I redesigned them 2 months ago, but I wasn't quite happy with the result.. now I'm working again with the layout. We'll see if something will be come out later ;)

Yes, I'd prefer a local chat here at your site, for it all would be more compact.
By the way, I thought the layout before this one was the coolest.
But I got so used to this one. You really want to change it again...?
Okay, changes are the only things that are perpetual

Greetings,
Ekko

You mean just us, the board-people?

I would appreciate that a lot.
If it doesn't work out with an own chat we could do it over the ICQ-chatrooms.

Greetings,

And I still wonder what it was...

Yeah, I always knew I would suffer from my laziness to backup.

I'm gonna do just that from now on. Making backups.

Mhm, sounds interesting, I don't know about the thread anymore, I'll go and look

Ahhh, fuck off, I wrote a long, long mail about it all and now it's all lost.
Why? No idea, my browser must have thought something like
"And now I jump back one page" just for fun.
EVerything's gone.
I'm gonna make backups during the writing process the next time... huah.

I'm not in the mood to write it all again now, later, later...

Cheers

Hitler:

I too wouldn't do it.
Never Again has a very strong meaning in our society.
And Nazi is about the strongest insult you can throw out. Humanity learned some very hard, and very, very important lessons from World War II, I'd say.

Imagine what would have happened if we'd delayed those lessons. A regime willing to kill 6 million people, trying to destroy an entire race.

Well, would you?

A simple question at first, but think about, really think about it!

Think about the consequences and possibilities that would appear.
Think about this question whenever you wait for a bus or sit in a waiting room or just go to bed and can't sleep.

And then tell me what conclusion you have come to.

Even if it's focking quiet here and nobody's up for a chat (well, okay, about WHAT, anyway...), it feels nice to be back again. Part of the community or something. Bla.
Ask me when I'm sober :-)

Cheers pals
