Guest Slidingtrancer Posted October 26, 2001 Posted October 26, 2001 *writes another one down* Is it a keyboard ? (never heard of it) Any links to reviews? I'm curious... Anyway, thanx for the help so far, guys, It's really appreciated PLUR Quote
Guest Jonatan Posted October 27, 2001 Posted October 27, 2001 Its a keyboard, yes... Don't know any reviews on it.. Just search the net and take a look at www.musikborsen.se ... i bought it there.. Quote
Guest 'CiD Posted October 27, 2001 Posted October 27, 2001 Right after i posted my earlier message a few days ago, i was browsing the www.m-audio.com website and i looks like they gotta cool looking midi controller with a few knobs and modulation / pitch bend wheel. Should be right on the front page cause it's brand new. Quote
Guest Slidingtrancer Posted October 27, 2001 Posted October 27, 2001 CID, thanx for that. It's really fucking cool Too bad there are no prices avalaible yet. It's exactly what I'm looking for, but it will probably be really expensive Quote
shpongled Posted October 27, 2001 Posted October 27, 2001 don't know the price but this looks nice... this and some midi keyboard mmmm.... midiman Quote
Guest Slidingtrancer Posted October 27, 2001 Posted October 27, 2001 yeah, that caught my eye as well and as I'm selling my mc303 Monday I do have a little extra cash there Quote
Guest 'CiD Posted October 27, 2001 Posted October 27, 2001 Slidertrancer... The controller board probably wont be too much, write them an email and ask, i'm sure they'll tell ya. goodluck Quote
Guest Eshanti Brahman Posted October 28, 2001 Posted October 28, 2001 yeah, its about time I get rid of my Roland mc-505 as well hahaha.....it feels like @!#$ after I've been dugging into the world of softwares and vst....hehe Quote
Guest Slidingtrancer Posted October 28, 2001 Posted October 28, 2001 You really should get rid of it and spend the cash wisely eshanti http://www.m-audio.com/products/midiman/oxygen8.htm Too bad my favourite midi-keyboard has no price indication yet. I really want it! Another thing that worries me is the following: Midiman/ M-audio is based in the US and as I have no creditcard, how am I gonna get my 'damsel in distress' here? When I look up 'dealers' I only get US dealers.. ( I live in Holland btw) Quote
Guest 'CiD Posted October 28, 2001 Posted October 28, 2001 Check maybe? Money Order? Do they do that overseas? I live in the US, so i might be able to help you out getting your new controller, if ya want. email me cidsounddesign@msn.com Quote
Guest Slidingtrancer Posted October 30, 2001 Posted October 30, 2001 I dropped a few mails and the Oxygen8 midi-keyboard will be around 175$ and the Surface one controller will be around 799$. I told the guy the 'Surface One' was clearly overpriced, that's way to much, even if it can talk like a barbie. For 799$ and a few extra bucks you can get a nice secondhand synth, why the hell would you buy the controller? Quote
Guest 'CiD Posted October 30, 2001 Posted October 30, 2001 That's a good price man! That's probably list too.. It's always higher when the manufacturer gives out the price. I say wait a little bit and pick it up. I've been looking at that surface one and after you look at it for a while , it looks very plain and cheap. like it would snap in a half after a month of use. And that 799 price tag doesn't help at all either. Goodluck on your search. Let me know when ya get it. Quote
Guest Slidingtrancer Posted October 30, 2001 Posted October 30, 2001 I cannot grasp why it would cost 799$. I'm gonna pick up that Oxygen8 for sure, I'm just a bit dissapointed the surface one is so expensive. It has some cool option, but... The guy from the mail said it was worth it, so I asked him whether it could speak to me and do my laundry. He said no, so I said well why would I bother then? The guy said you could edit parameters in Cubase, Logic and stuff with the Surface One, well that's cool! But who needs an external controller to do just that? Quote
Guest 'CiD Posted October 30, 2001 Posted October 30, 2001 Right on man. Of course he's gonna say it's worth it. It his company! You can change the parameters with the Oxygen knobs too. Quote
Guest Slidingtrancer Posted October 31, 2001 Posted October 31, 2001 Yeah 'Cid, exactly what I thought, why BOTHER? Quote
