working in the mines does fuck all for my interests. Can still do a bit of production but can't use any of my hardware and it's all done through headphones which is a bit shit. Got a plan for the future though to get me out of this industry and free up more time for me work on producing and hopefully get some DJ work.

lets go back....

Now this is one I've already read a bit about but it was officially unveiled at NAMM. Moog Sub Phatty

Livid Instruments - Base NAMM 2013: Livid Instruments Base announced Pressure-sensitive pads, touch faders and full-colour LEDs Ben Rogerson (Computer Music)January 23, 2013, 16:56 GMT NAMM 2013: Following the earlier release of a teaser image, Livid Instruments has officially unveiled Base, its new pad/touch fader controller. The device features 32 pressure- and velocity-sensitive pads, eight function buttons, nine capacitive touch faders and eight capacitive touch buttons. There's full RGB backlighting and an LED character display. Everything, of course, is totally programmable (you can make customisations via the Base editor web application) and the whole thing is less than an inch thick and weighs under two pounds. Find out more below or on the Livid Instruments website. Base, of course, faces stiff competition from various other controllers, but when it's released on 1 March at a price of $399 we think it'll definitely be a contender. Livid Instruments Base press release Introducing Base: a new foundation for all your creative productions. Combining the technology of drum machines and touch screens, Base merges pressure sensitive pads with touch faders, all brilliantly lit with full-color LEDs. The Base inspires beats, new melodies, instant sound tweaks, and invites control of just about anything that supports MIDI. Designed in an ultra sleek, high-quality aluminum body with no moving parts, it's the ultimate mix of ruggedness and portability. Adaptable Base puts your fingers in the mix with 32 pressure and velocity sensitive pads, eight function buttons, nine capacitive touch faders, and eight capacitive touch buttons. Full RGB backlighting keeps you connected to your set and focused on control. An LED character display shows which of the ten presets you're using. Creative coders will be pleased to discover the characters are MIDI-controllable, too! The Base editor web application allows you to customize all its settings for your favorite DAW, VST, plugin, or application. Designed to Travel No sliders to bend, no knobs to catch: under two pounds, less than an inch thick and a face that's probably smaller than your laptop (10.25"x11"x0.75".), Base goes in and out of your bag from studio to show. A single USB cable powers the device with RGB back lights bright enough to see in daylight. Built to Last Base is proudly engineered, and assembled in Livid's very own manufacturing facility in Austin, TX. Solid extruded aluminum, tight tolerances, and the assembler's signature with every product, you can have confidence in Livid's latest controller. At Your Fingertips With just enough controls to fill your hands, Base keeps you focused on playing your set. Velocity-sensitive pads give you expressive control for playing and pressure sensitive pads offer unique control of your effects. Low-profile pads sit in line with a soft rubber faceplate, allowing your fingers to glide over the buttons with ease, mixing the tactile feel of a real controller, and the unique possibilities of a touch screen. Touch-sensitive sliders can be used like a regular fader, but have the advantage of instant access to any value. The touch sliders also output a note when touched, which can be mapped to turn effects on and off only when the slider is active. Compatibility Base is designed as an instrument to work with any software that supports MIDI. Whether creating beats or mixing visuals, our library of applications and presets is ever-growing. Base has some of the most sophisticated scripts available for Ableton Live, Max/MSP, Traktor, and more. Pricing and Availability Shipping March 1st, Base has a street price of $399 and is available for pre-order from lividinstruments.com and dealers worldwide.

welcome yo

fuckin love when NAMM roles around.

because it's just a bunch of scene-ster whales for the most part.

this. Don't do it for any other reason.

^ they done 2 nights in Perth I think.

They're doing australia just now....

shoulda went with 20.

Same threads would get nominated every year. Site wants to grow, should be new threads. change the name then to best new thread.

surely if a thread is still active through 2012 it could still be nominated, regardless of when it was originally created.

mitch

aw well, scottie got there first

fuckin youtube links tae fuck....

MF Doom - Doomsday edit Mitch: fixed

Was watching a film that had 'Bear Witness' in it... So here's some Dr. Octagon with 'Real Raw' from '96.

So he doesn't have a phone with him?

so he shouldn't try and alert them anyway?

shop on your phone?

It's good to practice beatmatching using the same 2 records. And, as has been already mentioned a couple of times, mix the kind of music you like. DJ'ing won't satisfy you unless you love what your playing, regardless of how 'niche' it may be.
