We do mostly hip hop and a little soul or R&B. yeah those picture show the tables and then the recording both is on the other side.The home smaller one I just use a camera in the both and a monitor and pa to communicate.Some artist get mic shy and when they cant see you they record better. The big boards the booth is right in front you can see the curtain pulled but it has a remote to open that and that way we can see each other directly and communicate via intercom.Classic techs are the best.Im not a big fan of the cd turntables

I will follow your advice and rig my alesis up to the midi clock of ableton later on tonight and see what happens and let you know.
I am thinking my poor soundcard will let me down though but i will give it a go.
I always wanted a quasimidi raven does the raveolution unit have any raven type sounds or features or is it just a roland tb emulator?
If it does have any raven sounds i would appreciate some samples from it.
I have an 80 gig hard drive in my synth so i can return the favour.
Lovely setup there filthyfletch makes my pc look real small

Good stuff nat. Let me know how get on with that.
Sorry man, I have no idea about the raven synth sounds I'm afraid. All I know is this box is like Quasimidi's own groove box. I'm pretty sure it's not a Roland emulation, so it may use some of the synth sounds from the raven, but I really don't know for sure. It's not mine either, so recording samples is not going to be easy. You might be able to find some online though, or there might be a Raven sampler patch for Reason maybe?

I am working with the alesis making amazing new sounds to be honest.
It has an unlimited modulation matrix and a huge polyphony as well as all the hands on filters and modulation and 4 assignable and programmable arppegiators per sound just before you even get into the in depth shit,you can imagine.
I have just made 9 new sounds and layered them into a hybrid of monophonic and polyphonic sounds and then i can play them all at once without any quality loss.
So in essence i am playing 9 hugely layered sounds into 1 sound with effects and everything and the keyboard hasnt even broken a sweat yet.
It has 2 cpus in it and an 80 gig drive so i wont be running out for a while yet
I will attempt to capture some sound with my camera but its video capture is pretty crap especially for sound so i dont think you will be able to hear the sound properly.
This board is great and i am just scratching the surface.
Sounds that it cam with though were pretty crappy but its engines are being tailored to suit me now

Ok gave it a try but the cameras mic settings etc and my speakers dont make it sound so good.
Here is a snippet of the new sound that i am working on.
It is layered with all kinds of velocity switching and filters are linked to velocity and va mono synths through the mod matrix as well as the effects after touch etc.
SO basically i edited 9 seperate sounds unti i was happy then mashed them all into one sound but they all still have there own individual settings yet i can play them all at the same time,great fun.
Once ive perfected it i will make it into a multisample and put it up for download in any format.
Please bear in mind that it sounds a whole lot better in real life than from my crappy cam mic,awsome monophonic analogues mixed with polyphonic all at one keyboard

Nice sounds dude 
That looks/sounds like a nice synth man. I've only got a little 25 key MIDI keyboard (by Alesis too), but with no on board sounds. I just MIDI it up to the reason synths/samplers. I've just not done any playing with this for a while now. You've inspired me to get my music PC sorted and start playing around with some sounds again though man! 
Alesis do some lovely kit though, real good vaue for money. I really want to get their studio amp and a pair of their monitors, they look sweet! And again, great value for money!

Yeah, the sound was pretty shit, LOL, but I got the idea!
Sorry man, I was totally lieing/stoned, it's an M-AUDIO MIDI controller I have, not Alesis. I got a bit confused.
This is what I have, currently collecting dust! I did have an M-AUDIO trigger finger as well, but it's fucked now and some of the pads are broken, which is why I got the Axiom as it has both pads and keys.

Been interested in DJing for years now... Love the music, and loved the old scene here in Seattle. I've been turnin and burnin on a friends two NuMark Axis-9's for the past year or so. My wonderful other half got me one for my birthday last week and I picked up a NuMark 3-channel mixer last week. Hoping to have that other Axis-9 soon!!

Thanks man. sadly no
I've done a few charity gigs locally, DJ-ing between or after bands and stuff, but never a proper club. My dream is to play out some really dirty hard techno over a massive PA to an up for it crowd. I am still dreaming about that one. If I played more commercial stuff/cheesey house, I'm certain I could get gigs, but I just won't do cheese. Unless it's in the form of a cutting! I do play at the odd house party though
They are muchos fun, as long as someone else brings the decks. I don't enjoy parties too much if I take my own decks/mixer, makes me nervous as hell all night!
