amen brother, are you still taking suggestions for the revision? i do not know how to program software, but i would like to beta test it for you as well. it's sitting in the closet doing nothing while awaiting some sort of upgrade or things to change. i am using an MPC 3000 to do long notes and song writing right now and use a midi2cv to my A100. i also record the MAQ's midi output into the MPC as well, to do away with its limited memory and avoid the unnecessary program changes to link patterns together. plus you can edit the patterns from the MAQ in the MPC and add tranpositions effortlessly. i also use the 909 synced to the MPC as a divide down clock source from the rim shot output to control eg's and the A155 in my A100 system to get different rhythmic time patterns while being in sync to the bars and start point. i do this in realtime and again record the rimshot patterns back into the MPC further editing. you can also use the MAQ to do drum style patterns into the MPC. regards, RM --- In Doepfer_a100@y..., "r_i_ p_e" <ripe909@h...> wrote: > Yes, I am still working on the Schaltwerk OS rewrite. > > The name I have come up for it is the 'Hackwerk' :) > > I post updates to my Schaltwerk website: > http://www.socialentropy.com/schaltwerk > > cheers > ripe > > > >From: "ringmod45" <ringmod45@y...> > >Reply-To: Doepfer_a100@y... > >To: Doepfer_a100@y... > >Subject: [Doepfer_a100] doepfer negative pr > >Date: Tue, 11 Jun 2002 14:21:59 -0000 > > > >hi everyone, i am reposting this here as an example of what happens > >when you don't do any upgrading to your products or have customer > >support. someone has decided not to buy a doepfer product.
