I may have a live date later this year: I contacted some people out there, and we’ll see what happens. I’ll keep you informed.
I’ve also started a “microblog’ as they are called over @ tumblr, there’s also a link off my front page as well. I really enjoy photography and the site provides a quick and easy way to bookmark photos and other things I find interesting online.
If you like ambient music and you’re not aware of it, check out SomaFM.com. The more I listen to the site, the more I like it. Recently I surfed over there on my ITouch and found out that they had a dedicated IPhone / ITouch version of their website which sends Quicktime compatible streams, which is really cool because because the IPhone / ITouch doesn’t come with a built in application for streaming outside of their native format. They are several available for sale on the apps store, but you can’t minimize them the way you can with the Quicktime app and still have the music playing. Mad props to such a cool website for doing this all for free. Please consider making a donation to the site as it’s completely user supported.
It’s time, the wee beastie has got to go. Everything works, it’s clean and in great condition with the exception of the effect selection knob being a bit loose; not my doing and it works fine. Comes with manual and original power adapter.
Rarely do I get excited about anything from the NAMM shows. I tend to be a conservative buyer, waiting for the technological jump that will take me a lightyear beyond what I already own, instead of rushing out to trade in my old gear to buy the depressing new 1 up’ed version of already existing gear you typically get from the big three that hardly offers any advantages over the old one. Does that remind anyone of college textbooks BTW? I digress, I am however floored that Korg would offer a product that seems so perfectly matched with Ableton Live (and other portable DJ programs), let alone laptops. Usually products like this are left to boutique companies, at boutique prices.
These were first demoed in the UK at 69 pounds, which would work out to about 125$ US a piece, but according to this video the street price US, is also 69$. When I first heard of these, I was already smitten. At this price, you can call me a nancy boy Korg whore. I’m just really hoping the build quality holds up. If it does, Korg is set to ruin Roland in the history books as embracing the dance genre.
after a crash with my host. :( It’s not been fun having to rebuild this.. so expect the content to vary from the last version and updates may be sporadic.
