I’m not sure right now I need anything but the most basic entry level numbers, as I have no idea if I will really use it, but a big thank you for the decent reply. Reckon I can handle the flimsiness, point taken on all second hand aspects though.

Are the Akais any better?

    Only tried them in a store, but from what I remember the MPKs seemed decent. The 25, 49 and 61 key versions are also all semi-weighted with aftertouch.

    They’re a bit more expensive than most M-Audios though?

        Yeah, I was eyeballing a second hand one for buttons, but that idea has now been revised.

          baggers44 sorry, i was sure i replied to this earlier, but it seems to have gone missing.

          thanks for the support, i very much appreciate it. 🙂

            my new dub techno album is out tomorrow, here’s one of the tracks, i’ll post the rest when it’s out. thanks for listening and i hope you like it. 🙂

            album is out now, it floats between dub and the detroit sound. the HQ download is free or pay what you want through insectorama’s bandcamp page or you can stream it in all the usual places. thanks for listening.

            plugin alliance has some crazy sales on right now. if anyone wants them, here are two discount codes (you can’t stack them).

            USERSURVEY20LG98HBT5 – $25 off anything over $39
            MEGA-SALE-20-OFF – $20 off, no minimum

            Will check out the sale. Though I’ve only just noticed that reason can now be run as a daw plugin so my next buy will in all likelihood be an upgrade on my reason 4 (!) licence so I can use it in live (in a much cleaner way than rewire - which i never used). Will check out your album on spotify.

            Here’s a 6 minute taster of my next album (short excerpts of each track).

            Out start of next month (in the vain hope of a successfully spotify playlist pitch). Only took circa 5 years to make.

              apyssjw nice, i’ll give the preview a listen, make sure you post the album here when it’s out. and i can’t say enough good things about the unfiltered audio plugins, i bought lion, byome, and triad this month. if you need more fx, byome is amazing.

                here’s my new one, it’s got a pretty similar sound to the album i just released. it’s streamable everywhere now.

                This is excellent. Was thinking today that this should have been on the fecking album!

                  Henry haha thanks, it probably should have been, but i finished it a couple of weeks after i submitted the album. would’ve fit well with slow tide to start things out.

                    I’m just going to bung it on the end of the album and pretend that this never happened.

                    good call, playlists are a wonderful thing. i’ve got a bunch of tracks ready for release, so i’ll probably put one out every couple of weeks over the summer while i attempt a concept album. hopefully that project comes together by september or so.

                      303abuser Good stuff. Look forward to that.

                      Might have an EP out this weekend. If I can sort my shit out. Hold tight!

                          also i just put my discography on sale for 75% off this weekend as bandcamp is waiving artist fees on friday. in case anyone is interested. 😉

                          apyssjw the preview sounds good, i’m looking forward to hearing the rest of dream rabbit.
