Elektron Musical Instruments

Hi,
I got my machinedrum yesterday and I've really been getting into it
so 
far.  It's really easy to use, sounds FANTASTIC, and best of all it 
seems to inspire me to make music.  I was just wondering if there's 
any drum&bass heads around here who want to swap some tips on getting 
hard snares and other good d&b sounds out of this box?  I've been 
messing around with the PI-SD and I like the results so far, with 
proper EQ and compression of course.  Any other ideas?

Check out re-trigger with the E12 drums. It really speeds up production time 
for rolls. If you use parameter slides over a roll that starts off with a low 
volume, then builds to full volume, it sounds wicked. Also play around with 
sliding other parameters during rolls. One of my favorites is setting FLTW low, 
then sliding FLTF from a low setting to a high setting.

Have fun :)

I donno if it's d&b style.  But I've been messing with a e12 rim shot
with hi retrig with slow timing.  Some other tweaks too, and some echo
too.  Well I go to the filter and give it a high Q.  Then I turn the
filtf or filtw and the sound goes from brain-rumbling to 303 style
squeeks.  I post the kit in a couple days.
