AKAI MPD-24 and Korg NanoPad

So earlier this week I purchased the MPD-18 to use with Scratch Live. I realized I needed knobs (pause) so I returned that and purchased the M-Audio Trigger Finger. Not bad.. But seemed a little flimsy. I saw there was an AKAI MPD-24 which had a lot more options. I found one used on craigslist for cheaper than I paid for the Trigger Finger. I bought that, returned the TF and then remembered DJ Geometrix telling me about the Korg Nanopad. Small, can fit in my dj bag, and does the same loop/midi pad options. So I bought that too. Time to play with my new toys!

a sad day...

Dumped off about 7 UDG bags worth of vinyl at the dump today. All pretty worthless singles, but still, good filler material during the vinyl days.

On September 9th, 2009, threadless.com had a $9 t-shirt sale on all their shirts. Pretty artsy fartsy stuff printed on american apparel. I don't even think you can buy blank t's at AA for $9. Shout out to dj Benny C for hooking me up with the site!

FlossyFX Ver2 Beta 1

Since I was having issues with Serato 1.9x, I had to go back and use 1.83. The ONLY thing i like about 1.9x is the fact that it has a sp-6 sampler where you can add drops (horns, name drops, bomb sounds, etc). So i went searching for a program where i could do this with 1.83. I had heard of FlossyFX by flosstradamus, but also heard you couldn't customize the drops, everything was pre-programmed. I didn't know someone had updated it on their own! Found version 2 on the serato forums, and i think i might like this better! You get 16(!) customizable drop banks.. the only difference is you have to click on the player to activate it, where in 1.9x, you just have to click the corresponding letter. An extra, but well worth it step.

You also have to plug it in through another channel on your mixer (aux for example). What i also noticed is that instead of drops, you can add mp3 mixes to the trigger so if you're serato happens to stall or crash, but your computer doesn't, you can just hit the drop with your mix and it will start playing! It's better than having a cd or ipod ready. Anyways, here's the download page for it.
