Aside from tradeshow demos, do you really think people don't make their own loops in ableton?

With clips and loops you can compose classical, orchestral, rock, blues.. you name it. Most people use "real instruments" like synths, keyboards, guitars, etc. to create clips.
What a disgrace the state of pop music is these days.
How much pop music is produced in ableton?
You sound a little out of touch 'pop'. :lol:
I run a netlabel http://oligopolistrecords.bandcamp.com
Free chill, hip-hop, lo-fi, ambient, experimental, for you! (Send me demos too!)

Much more! We want more! More I say!

It's like using one of those power chairs to get around when you're not even remotely handicapped. What a useless generation of 'musicians' all this stupid technology has produced with it. Learn to play a real instrument, instead of fiddling about with toys all day long. What a disgrace the state of pop music is these days.

A keyboard on a synth is still a keyboard :uhuhuh:

Also you can't just use these "toys" to make your music for you. You still have to learn how to use them together.
:borg:

I thought there would be big rave about the USB connectivity
Amazon: why not use an alternative

You sure you went to the right trade show?

Sounds like you made a wrong turn and ended up at Toy-R-Us.

yeah.. you'd get more control w/a kenton prosolo or pro2000 since you can route CCs to the aux CV outs on the kentons.

but having simple midi connection for triggering notes is a nice thing to have... simple as it is.

true. i was just saying that it is a nice thing to have a midi in on an analogue synth. that's all. wasn't saying you said it was or wasn't nice. :wink:

and i was more or less agreeing w/you that it's not a big deal since it only sends note pitch and triggers the envelope
