Definitely.  Reminds me of the Dot lable from Sweden.  I'm not sure
it's around anymore.

riddle me this

2004-08-13 by niall munnelly

...while i'm at work, and away from my beloved studio.
are MD kits treated like patches in a regular synth?  ie, if you increment MD presets
in your sequencer, do the kits increment, or the patterns?

does this behaviour change with the sequencing mode on the MD?

i could wait until i'm home, but i'm editing a .midnam file while it's quiet at work, and this bit of
knowledge would help me immensely.  thanks!

Machine drum kits (groupings of the MD synths) and their associated patterns are directly linked, almost one in the same.  
 
A kit dictates which types of MD synthesizers (snares, kicks, etc) are used along with their respective root (original) parameter settings. The sequence holds the instructions for how the MD synths in the kit are to be played.  The line blurs because of parameter locks.  A single MD synth can have many different "patches" in the same sequence.  This is what gives the MD its unique dynamics and sound.
 
The closest to a classical "patch" per se, would be to copy a note in the sequence that has the desired parameter settings, and paste it wherever you want.  There is not a storage area for these saved notes, only kits and sequences.  Is this way, the machine has no patches and has tons of patches.

well, i'm home now and fuggin' about.  the MD responds to patch changes in "classic"
mode.  patch #1 is kit 01, "init", #8 is kit 08, "e12 storm", and so on. i've already
created the note list, so i should have a finished .midnam tonight.  right on.

clearly, this won't mean much to windows users or people who do all their sequencing
in-box (and it's easy to see why they would), but if you're the obsessive, 128th-note
sequence type, it's a handy tool.


thanks!

[MD] midi name document

2004-08-14 by niall munnelly

a .midnam document is now available for the machinedrum here:

http://www.vietnambla.com/dp/midnam/

feel free to use it if your osX sequencer supports midi name docs.
