Doepfer

Hi guys ,
  
Everyone has to right to want certain features. I asked for the 
ability to have VC Stage Selection. The A154 was conceived. It is a 
great addition for the A155. 

I understand Andreas's points and James's as well.

James has the right idea about modular sequencer modules stripped 
down to their primary functions. In a perfect world the Emu 
sequencers modules would still be made and i would not have to ask 
for them. It would haved seemed like a big request for Doepfer to 
start a New complete modular sequencer line of modules like the Emu 
modules. Judging from all of the discussions about the subject, it 
may entice Doepfer to entertain such modules for the future.

 So for the time being, just the ability to have an A154 in the wings 
is great for the A155 and the A100. Maybe Doepfer can re-design the 
A154 to allow for future expansion to have pot banks, Trigger banks 
etc. like the Emu line. The success of the A154 will justify further 
investigation from Doepfer to, maybe, bring a total modular sequencer 
package for the A100.

Now, my next big request is to have an SH101 style sequencer module 
that would be tied to the forthcoming TKB for inputting and 
transposition.

It's great to have these discussions, the more the better.
Looking forward to an affordable modular sequencer package someday.

Cheers,
RM

If anyone needs info on how these systems work here are a couple of 
links to browse to help you out.

Hi Andreas, I use the Sh101 as my main keyboard controller for my 
A100. The reason I like it so much, is it's flexibility. I use the 
sequencer to do linear style sequencing i.e. basslines or lead 
melodies that have values greater than a 16th note value to them. The 
same reason why I want to have the Schaltwerk to have the ability to 
do tied notes, so I can get away from repetitve 16th notes. You could 
also use the MC202 or TB303 sequencers to great effect like the sh101.

I mult the master lfo for both the sh101 sequencer and the A155's or  
I use the rim shot trigger out from the 909 to clock the sh101 or the 
A155's, if i am working along midi stuff. Another plus to the 909 is 
you could use it as a subdivider. the 606 will do the trick as well 
and much cheaper. Hope this helps.

Regards,
RM

Funny, what is so great about the 101seq RM? I have one and quite frankly I
have never used it, actually I think I am going to buy an a102 and replace
it alltogether cause it is unstable as hell mine ;)

Hi Andreas, I have scanned info about the sh101 into an sh101 folder 
in the files section. this should explain it fairly easily. if you 
have any problems, email me privately and I will do my best to help 
you out.

Please download them quickly so I can take them out of the files 
section to not have the space taken by a non deopfer product. email 
me to let me know you have them. Thanks. Hope this helps. 

Cheers,
RM

Interesting, since I have no manual and all I guess the interface of the 101
has always kept me away from it. I am also not sure wether the seqencer part
is alright in my 101. Do you have a manual or anything to explain how it
should work?

hey RM,
glad to know that you're thinking so much about the
space your sh101 file takes,being a non-doepfer
product.you really care about this group,i mean
it.thanks.

Hi Bakis, thanks I really do care about the A100 and the members of 
this group. A lot of improvement has happened since we have had more 
communications directly with Mr.Doepfer and Company. The group and 
Doepfer have bounced ideas off each other for some amazing new 
modules that will be coming soon. Everyone has gained in the process.

Andreas mentioned he needed a kick start for his A100 and he 
expressed interest in the way i was using the sh101. He mentioned his 
knackered sh101 and asked for the manual, so he could at least try it 
out with his A100. I didn't know if his email was able to receive 
this big file so I posted up here in the files to help him. Hopefully 
this will give him an extra tool to do tied notes and hopefully 
revive the A100 into his music making process. As soon as he has 
downloaded the files, I will take them down.

Thanks for your time and moderation of the group. Let's keep

very good question and one my friend became very obsessed about.

After lots of testing and reading I decided on:
Spirit Folio SX mixer
Spirit Absolute 2 monitor speakers

These give me a very clean sound, the speakers are excellent for 
bassy style music like electronic/dance music (or whatever we call 
it these days).
I make electronica music, bands like Autechre, Aphex Twin, Mouse on 
Mars etc... The speakers are perfect for this style.
Also a very important thing I read about these speakers is they 
don't make your ears tired like a lot of others do, so you can mix 
all day happily.

I also have a pair of panasonic hifi speakers (normal house things) 
to check the final mix on, because if you going to sell CD's people 
will listen to them in their houses and cars not in studios.


JOhn.

After many years of striving to get the most neutral possible sound for
audioning my music, both my own and others it just struck me. What the fuck
am I doing? I know that certain speakers colors the sound i certain ways and
so on, but in the end of the day I still try to mix my own stuff to sound i
a special crunchy, bassrich and smooth style. So I know that I could easily
just go out and pick up a set that would make almost everything sound good
to me, but I don't ;)

So now I am qurious about you guys, what PA, phones, etc do you use to
monitor you A100 and other gear and what is your philosophy?

That is pretty much what I have too John.Spirit F1/16 mixer, but then just
headphones (AKG240m and Sony mdr7506). Then I take it out to my DVDplayer
and some not high end but still rather pricey fullrange speakers from Kef
and Bowers and Wilkins. Everything to go for that audiophile neutral kind of
sound, but as I wrote I am starting to wonder about my priorities when I
play a track or two on really bassy cloub style speakers and love it. So I
am wondering a bit... hey why don't I have that setup at home when I love
it?

Beside... I have long since given up the idea of selling anything really. I
will keep my music as a hobby and stay away from the hassle of pressure to
perform and such.

What did your "obsessing" friend end up with?

Tannoy PBM8 monitors driven by Hafler amp, and for truth I always 
grab my AKG d270 headphones-they don't give a good idea of 
frequency "staging" but for picking out extreme detail they rock!

Hi Andreas,

I listen to my A100 through a mono mixer amp combo with a 100 watts 
of power. it is more like a powered wedge with stereo line 
in,instrument in mic in with xlr , phone and rca jacks. It helps to 
avoid blown stereo mix monitors, the wedge can a shit kicking. 

I mix my music with Vecteur front ported monitors. they are 
transparent across the whole range. No boxiness to them, which I find 
with most music related speakers and not with quality hifi speakers. 
also the imaging is vastly superior. I also like to mix at different 
levels. Positioning of the speakers is crucial as well. 

The lower the volume, the better. I use the mono wedge to gauge how 
the mix responds to loudness, it also helps low frequency balance(not 
for panning but the whole spectrum). most of the time if you layout 
your channel frequencies properly at low volume and all your bass is 
proper, it will translate well at louder volumes. Why do you see 
Auratone speakers in big studios? I wonder, also it saves your ears. 
you only need a couple runs or passes at louder volumes to determine 
if you did it right or sounds right the first time around. another 
tip, treat channel eq's with respect, it helps keep the headroom in 
check,unless you are really going for that deconstructive sound( I 
prefer waveshaping and filtering before the channel eq ).

another useful item is decoupling your speakers. I know a lot people 
call it hog wash but it really helps. if anyone wants to try an 
inexpensive way to decouple them, go to the hardware store and buy 
1/2" MDF board, cut them 1" more than the perimeter of your speaker. 
do some blind testing with a friend and see if you can spot which is 
no MDF and which is with MDF. you will be surprised at which you like 
better. Once you hear the difference, there dozens of other more 
expensive decoupling systems out there that could improve your mixing 
and playback speakers.

These opinions are not the holy grail of mixing, they are culled from 
years of listening to music and lots of experimenting. It's great to 
hear what other people have to say about the subject.

Regards,
RM

hello,

i use adam p-22a for monitoring and a pair of cheap hifi speakers
for additional control of the mix.
i like the adam's very much, they are simply the best nearfield
monitors i've ever heard, so clean and clear through the
whole frequency band.
my mixing desk is an analogue mackie 8-bus.

i'm not doing live gigs. for me the studio is the place to be.
my playing skills are a bit low, i started playing keyboards
10 years ago without taking lessons, so i'm better in programming.

seems that some of us have a similar taste :-)
i like electronica stuff too (warp, schematic and many others).

Hi Andreas

> monitor you A100 and other gear and what is your philosophy?
I use either Yamaha MSP6 (active Speakers) or a Sennheiser Headphone HD
580-1 on with an Ashley 2x60 W sine amp. The Yamahas are fine for close
monitoring. The distance ear-monitor is around 120 cm). Also my room is
basically symmetrical, but in details it is quite unregular(right word?),
with small alcovens and niches, so I do not have annoying resonances.

For crating sounds I find it useful to hear over headphones. The headphone
also keeps the peace with my girlfirend... ;-)


As desk I have a large Yamaha 2408 with a lot of outboard. For live I
recently bought an old DMP7 digital mixer.

But to my experience the _real_ neccesary thing is a long time experience
in listening over your only one Monitoring system. Hear everything you like
and also everything you don't like over your only one monitor. It does not
matter whether you hear loud or not whether it costs thousands or some ten
bucks: the only thing that matters, is, that _you_ can differ good from bad
on _your_ monitors.

absolutely right.

couldn't agree more.  best to find a monitoring situation that you can work with 
and stick to it.  most important to know your speakers regardless of how great 
or crappy they are.

guess this is only important though for recording. ..

as for how i like to listen to my a100, it varies.  sometimes straight into the 
console (trident), sometimes through an old tube guitar amp (small silvertone) 
and recorded w a ribbon mic.  wonderful!   either way, usually end up coloring 
the sound a little bit w some eq or by inserting a limiter.   

i love lots of modern electronic music (fennesz, ekkehard ehlers, vladislav 
delay, microstoria, jan jelinek, burnt freidman) but my heart belongs to the old 
school.  and to dub.

Hi guys,

to

I'll second that - a most interesting thread!

Let's see if any of you can beat this: since I'm incapable 
of 'playing' mine in the musical sense I have nowhere near the level 
of gear you lot mention (mixers and things...what are they?!). I 
listen to mine through the 'hi-fi' stuff I bought when I was a lad - 
next year it'll be 30 years old! Consists of a Teleton SAQ206B stereo 
amplifier (banging out an _impressive_ 8+8 watts!) and a pair of 
Keleton KS8 18inch speakers, each with a "three speaker system" 
(which probably sound well 'soggy' in comparison to todays 
offerings). Does it for me though!

Cheers,
Tim

Good one Timothy :-)

Not much in the way of monitoring, I'm still using my "live" stuff, a 
pair of JBL PA speakers off a Carver power amp and Roland 12 channel 
line mixer. Very boomy and boxy, but loud as hell!

For the most part, though, I listen through Beyerdynamic DT770 
headphones.

Let's see, usually through my Mackie 1202 mixer into 
headphones (Sennheiser HD445) - have neighbors, you know! 
Or from the mixer to a Jolida power amp and Infinity tower 
speakers (both from my hi-fi; both about 8-9 years old...). Or from 
the mixer to my bass guitar amp - Hughes and Kettner 
BassBase 400 into a Euphonics Audio enclosure (a 3 way set 
up). Or into an Alembic F1X to a Mesa Boogie 20/20 into the EA.  
Or into another bass amp, an Acoustic Image Clarus... As you 
can guess, I also play bass guitar...

Sometimes I think we're all bass players at heart :)

(... fade in Jack Bruce's "Sunshine of Your Love" line ...)

It would be interesting to know what percentage of bass patches people 
create, versus everything else.

Hi all,
very interesting to hear peoples different set-ups, also very happy 
to hear a few people into my style of music (warp, rephlex, skam, 
schematic), cool! :-) I'm from sheffield UK, home of warp (or ex 
home anyway).
My a-100 gets used in EVERY track I make, period!!
I've just started my own record company, just a small online 
business. I'll be very interested to hear any music from you guys if 
you make this style of music.
I'll send you the web address as soon as I finish it proper.

I noticed alot of you listen your a100 through headphones, I hope 
this is for mastering and not patching!
I made a painful mistake once using headphones with the a100, a bit 
too scared to do it again. Frequencies can jump very quickly, 
quicker than your hands can take the headphones off :-D

My 'obsessed' friend decided on a pro-tools soundcard with breakout 
box, he uses this as his mixer, a samson amp and spirit absolute 2 
speakers. BUT he doesn't have an a100, just a nord modular and nord 
lead 2.

JOhn.

That was almost a conclusive answer from you lot. You definitly end up in
the SoundonSound-school, practical, clean and professional. You are indeed a
very helpful lot. You tried to help and hint me, funny cause I didn't
realize I was asking for help. I am merely curious how other do stuff. I
once met a guy that made music by cutting up old tapes(cassettes, not 8track
reeels or anyhting) and gluing it all together. This group is more
professional and cohesive ;)

Thanx guys.

But if I were to ask for advice, what gives the best smooth bassresponse in
passive monitors say around 500 bucks?

Same here, love to hear what people are up to...

I did a drone piece on my ASys/doepfer/2600 a couple of weeks ago:

http://www.fdiskc.com/aud/drone-04.mp3

Though I'm usually not that ambient!

and i write mostly

I've been thinking about getting rid of my 606 and tbs drm1 (keeping the
808 though) and replacing them with some concussor stuff (especially since
Tom still owes me a BD88 from the Naming Contest!). How do you like it?

I wish someone would make more generalized percussion modules though...

I'd love to see a series of modules as follows:

-TwinT filter, pitch cv in w/ att. , click mix knob, decay knob w/ cv
control. Preferrably a dual twin t module or even better (for rimshots and
cowbells) triple, each with individual controls with normalled trigger
(that could be bypassed by plugging in, of course).

-Ramp env (no attack) with a shape knob to vary log-lin-exp also under cv
control. Extra output with att. that allows inversion. Preferrably dual,
with normalled trig as above.

-Clap env, generates repeating ramps, control for ramp decay, spacing, #
of repeats, and overal decay (lessening of ramp amplitude over the number
of steps). I fake this with an ASys env and it's repeat functionality, but
there's stuff here that it can't do.

-square wave array... doepfer does this already though, right?

Regular modules could be used for pretty much all else that's needed for
fun perc synthesis, but these would make my life a lot easier!

I've played with them *very* briefly at a couple of NAMM shows over the
last three years, I recall thinking: "cool, but not an 808 replacement",
which is why I'd be keeping my 808 ;0)

I also remember not being too impressed with the CB88, I've gotten far
closer to the real 808cb in my DSP dev stuff. It's a tricky sound, and
it's very important to get the trail right.

Thanks for the second opinion, I don't always trust my memory for this
stuff!

-Brandon

What a laugh.  I played B3 with Jack at Guitar Legends (91 in 
Spain).  We did Sunshine and White Room. A definite high point.

Kevin

Hi brandon, you should reconsider selling the 606. it is the the only 
sequencer( of the xox boxes) that you can switch into write mode on 
the fly. it makes it easy to improvise over pre written patterns. A 
great way to improvise with it is to have the same pattern in 
different banks. you improvise in one bank then switch between the 
original and overwritten one.

 If i were you , i would look into modding it out as much as 
possible. I would do all of the Analogue Solutions mods. I would also 
have gate outputs for every instrument so you could trigger your 
A100. it is  also great as an interactive divider. check out the 
available mods out there.

cheers
RM

hi brandon,
i have most of the concussor drum modules(except
bd99,sd99,CP88)and in my opinion they sound
wonderfull!the bd88 sounds very good,indeed!!!1(i
don't care to compare it with the TR808
kick,thought...).the less used module in my system is
the CB88.also,i love the bd78,sd78,too!
also,i'll give a listen to your drone track...

I know, I just don't use my x0xes like that... my 808 has never left
pattern write mode while in my posession ;0) I jam a pattern into my DAW
software and then if I want a radical changeup I stop recording, make the
new pattern, then punch-in.

I'd never take my x0xes out live (not that I've played live since about 97
anyway) so this method works.

I bought the 606 before I had the 808, and now I simply don't find myself
using it.

as for triggering a100, I've got a 155, I'll get a second 155 when the 154
is available, and if that's not enough then I could always pick up an
analog solutions gt8 for less than the worth of the 606, and certainly
cheaper than getting it modded.

In other words, I can see your point, but it's simply not valuable to me
in the way it might be to some ;0)

No in opposite I use them for patching.

After having ruined two tweeters of my old NS-10, I have inserted always a
limiter in the stereo sum.

Another possibility could be two glowbulbs in the headphone cable.

No kidding? I can imagine it being a high point. Tell us more!

I spent years trying to find a reasonable organ part to play against 
both Sunshine and White Room, but y'know, ended up pretty much 
doubling the bass line :)
