Tell a story through the order of your tracks. Approach it with some sort of purpose or intention; even if you can't concisely convey the "story" you want to tell, it will still be obvious to anyone listening that a lot of thought went into the song order and that the artist is trying to tell us ...

I think a good explanation of the difference between the Equalizer and the Isolator would be: the Equalizer adjusts the volume of the frequencies, and the Isolator adjusts the presence of the frequencies. That may sound kinda vague, but uh... I think it makes sense.

And yeah, combining both ...

Re: tanks

if anyone knows anyother tricks that have to do with this scenario- please reply!!!!!

You can pre-set the positions of the knobs, too. Like, say you first hit [ 1 ], then you hit [ 4 ]. Now you want to put the [PITCH] effect on [ 1 ] with the knobs at a specific position so that it sounds the ...

All samplers and electronic music tools can be used for something creatively. People here tend limit there equipment to challenge themselves to be more creative out of necessity. When you have a program like FL or Pro-tools that can do everything possible it's easy to get lost in the function and ...

Favorite effect?

... Mmm... Okay, the effect that is the most useful to me is definitely the Isolator. Really does what I need it to do everytime; damn useful.

But my favorite has to be Reverb. A love, like... I dunno, I really love waves of sound. Not trance or Yanni-like synth (I usually ...

Hold tap tempo on startup to turn the pulsating shit off.

Oh! ... Thank you! Heh, I haven't actually received my 404 yet, but it's made a bad day a little bit better to know I can turn that off. Thanks again. :)

Ugh. Personally, I like as little screen space as possible. In fact, I'd say that's one of the aesthetic beefs I have with the 404. I'm really in love with the look of the 303; it looks like an instrument. I am content and steadfast about getting a 404 over the 303, but I hate how the "blue ...
