Hi, EPU.
I´m not new in the synth zone... I´m from Brazil like Mgomes, a dance producer and my gears are oriented to techno and dance music.
I have seen your topics about 2 years...
I got a XP-80 with Dance and Orchestral 01 expansions, JX-305, Midi patcher A-880, SC-88 pro, MC-50 sequencer, S-330 sampler, MS-1 Sampler, Korg M3-R.
I´m a Roland lover, like you...
I´m planning to increase my set with a Techno or Hip-Hop exp. Could you help-me.
I need sounds to make Drum´n´Bass and techno songs...

I have an XP-80 with Asia, World, Vocal and Session plugged into it.
I have an 2080 with Pop, TEckno, SuperSounds, Orchestra 1, Brass_Drums and HipHop cards plugged into it.
My also have a SPD-20 (I'm a percussionist at heart).
My biggest issues is figuring out how to get a library going of all the patches from a central place. Not sure what software to use. Still fumbling with software on a PC.
I've tried climbing the Cubase mountain but I haven't really made friends with that software yet. Suggestions? Emagic better?
Frankly, my most productive tool is Acid Pro for compositions - go figure. Someday I'll get a tip on the best path for midi sequencing (other then the build in seq. in the xp80 which is dead simple to use).

heh... all i've got is a lowly xp-10 and m-bd1. i feel so inadequate!! ![](http://www.synthworld.com/ubbs/wink.gif) soundfonts help me deal with the trauma, tho... i'd be interested in hearing from anyone who feels the way i do... namely, that developing truly authentic-sounding, i-thought-that-was-a-live-drummer percussion sequences is absolutely critical. i didn't use the m-bd1 on most of the songs on our first cd (URL in .sig), but did still try to get it as realistic as possible. (of course, there's not much you can do with an sr-16...) i'm sure there are tips and tricks i haven't stumbled upon yet, and would love to know how to achieve some things... like, for instance, getting a decent roll out of the toms. no matter what i try, it invariably ends up sounding like a collection of individual hits in rapid succession... there's gotta be a way to get it sounding better than that. any ideas, or pointers to sites addressing this area of sequencing, would be much appreciated. l8r mitch ------------------ http://www.mp3.com/speedlimit35

Oh, by the way, Im Totty, yeah i know its a funny one, got it at school and it stuck!! Here is my gear list-in order of preference.
JD990 - Undoubtedly THE BEST synth Roland have ever done.
Nova - Ultra Phat - I MEAN IT - it is the nuts!
Jupiter6 - Mean Mutha! As ive heard before, stick that b****** in unison and leave it there! Cross mod is evil like that.
XV5080 - Great synth, still digging into it at mo, it has endless potential.
S3000XL - Great Bread and Butter sampler, rock solid.
Drumstation - Does what it says on the tin.
Boss SE70 - Great for lo-fi grunge fx.
Mackie 1604VLZ - I NEED MORE CHANNELS, but its a good one
Korg X5 - Still love some of its M1 sounds, but its abit old hat now - just a controller really
Pentium 200 96mb, Cubase, rebirth etc etc
I want a G4!

Emrys: I feel your pain. As has been observed on the general forum, there just isn't a substitute for a real drummer.
I've been advised by many folks here that using a sampler for drums is second, as you can record, tweek, and sequence the exact sound you want, and aren't dependent on what the manufacturer burned on the ROM. 3rd place goes to the better quality modules, Roland's V-Drums seemingly getting the most favorable reviews overall (I've heard a TD-8 - it's good). Better drum modules can allow tweeking, which might allow you to find a tom sound which sounds good rolled.
All: I wasn't going to list my equipment, but as I'm 1/3 of the way through a home CD project which is going better than expected, here's what I'm using:
Sequences: Noteworthy Composer running on a bailing-wire-and-bubblegum W98 machine (AMD-2 450, 160 meg RAM - my son and I build computers).
Sound equipment: Roland JV-1010 Yamaha PSR-270 (almost unused) MOTU MicroExpress MIDI patch module DBX 266XL Compressor/Limiter/Gate Yamaha REV100 reverb/delay Yamaha DGStomp guitar preamp Guild G41 steel string guitar Palmer Pretend-a-Strat guitar Alesis Studio 12R mixer (pick up tomorrow) Rented for this project: Alesis LX20 8-track ADAT Alesis Studio 24 I'll be burning the final CD on a Tascam CD-RW700 CD Recorder, which is owned by the school at which I'm technology coordinator.
Most of this equipment was really cheap, but has worked flawlessly (with the exception of the Yamaha DGStomp, which quit after 3 days of use). Despite the abuse it's taken on this forum (some from me!), the JV-1010 has really proved to be a pleasure to work with. I have the orchestral expansion card on order, hoping to increase its usefulness. The DBX compresser unit is really great for how cheap it was, and the Yamaha reverb, found used for $125, has been amazing! The MOTU unit is being under-utilized, but as it takes all the hassle out of MIDI routing, it'll come into its own as I add modules in the next few weeks.
Back to work . . .
