New hardware sample drum machine
Re: New hardware sample drum machine
Was a bit hard to tell, but the rotating flash thingy on their site seemed to show what looked like Midi i/o, an XLR and 4 1/4" (phono) i/o. No idea how many are inputs and how many are outputs, but I do hope they've got a good mixing facility if there's only a stereo pair out.

Here's the deal with this box.
12 production ready hip hop beats on 8 tracks with the ability to manipulate the beats and develop your own remixes.
Mute & Solo 8 tracks of high quality beats; 16-bit, 44.1k stereo sound files. Sampling
3.5 inch video grade color LCD
On-board rechargeable NiCad battery.
3000 sounds designed by The Beat Kangz
16 Track MIDI sequencer (sequence external instruments)
500 production ready Platinum beats and loops created by The Beat Kangz
Sleek design and styling with customizable “Paintz” and “Grillz”
Convenient, light-weight portable design with internal rechargable battery
USB In & Out
Pitch and Mod Wheels
On Board FX including Reverb, Delay, Automated Filters and tons of Crazy "Freak FX" including "Chopped and Screwed".
On Board Mastering with EQ and Limiting
256 MB Ram standard
2 High Speed SD Card Slots (16 Gigabytes/ card) same as the Sony DUO's for PSP that go for 25 USD now.
Export Beats to a Mac or PC Everyone was bitch' about the cheezy plastic look/feel, and the weak old style monochrome screen.
Looks like they will deliver with a sleek metal design, and have a 3.5" LCD.
Retail price dropped from 1300 to 1000 USD while upgrading the hardware.
What I like about these guys is they LISTEN, and are sure to please the old and young with this design. My local Brotha' said he'll hook me up for 8 Bens, I gotta get one of these, and supposedly being able to use Apple iPods and touch stuff makes this the life of the party.
The unit I heard had decent sound quality but the guys demonig the unit had zero delays and verbs, and were lofi'd the whole time. But verb & delay is a good idea. I for one always liked that old song Knifedge where Carl Palmer had BPM delays on the Hi-Hat....cool.
With 32GB's of sampling and the weird effects that come with this, I am sure I will be getting one of these this summer when they start shipping.
I wonder who'll be making thier chassis...
The best thing is I won't be slaved to VDAT anymore.
I'm getting some radical chick singer and a bassist and going back to the Palms............
Movie Stars,......swimming pools...........
