yup. pretty cool after you fumble around for three hours figuring out how to get it working in reason....stupid piece of shit. but yea im lovin it. never ever used a program to make beats...its pretty wicked the freedom you have with sounds...plus i can still use sampled drums and it makes them velocity as well. but i primarily bought it because ive noticed people as well as my friends pads going on the sp which i want to avoid....so i got this for drummin and settin up loops to put on the sp...sorry about the random rant just pumped on it haha.

When I got a TF it took me hours to use it with ableton and when I did I only used it for a few days and was so frustrated I just returned it. Now I have a Pad Kontrol and it's much easier for me to use, but the TF has some features that are different and awesome. Have fun with that.

Initially Ive bought TF to is it with FL. It was long time ago, I remember I was fascinated with mpc but I couldnt afford it. So I bought TF cuz I thought that It'll "emulate" the mpc with FL. Daaamn, crazy times x)
After 2 months it ended up in my drawer, collecting dust;p

After I bought 404, I reactivated those pads and they are quite often in use.

Grats on thepurchase. Hope you will not get too frustrated with em

You just gotta fire up Enigma and take your time. Build a preset for each Instrument, Enigma has all the parameters for each one grouped in the presets area. It's a bitch the first time.

Yeah dude... that was my old software setup... a TF an Oxygen8 and Reason & Live on the ole powerbook. It's a dope combination... lots of fun, and lots of possibilities. I was recently considering getting rid of the TF & Oxygen8, since I'm boxing up most of my sh*t and preparing to move into a smaller studio space, but I couldn't bring myself to do it. Motivated by too many good memories and the possibility of some software projects down the road I decided to hold onto em.
