Good to see a lot of the 'old faces' still around these parts..... Life has a way at times, of just 'getting in the way' but I too, still have my O and I pop in now and again to read through the threads... Hope everyone has a peaceful holiday and a prosperous and creative New Year. Best wishes ...

me, very simple, Would aslo love to have a more flexible GLOBAL, a one where you could truly keep say, differents settings... Just in case anyone missed the tip I gave many months ago now. You can save out different Global settings and reload them depending on the situation you wish to config the ...

Besides, the entire keyboard totally freezing after just saving a combi to memory is hardly a hidden bug that has to be uncovered. Well, it is a well hidden bug... if it only occurs with a very few Oasys's... and even more so if it doesn't occur every time with those very few O's too. How would you ...

Hey Paul, I do not understand what beta testers have been doing while testing this new OS version. I don't know if you remember my early experiences with the Oasys, but I used to be plagued with freezes and became quite upset with it. So you have my sympathies for sure. Also you can imagine that ...

Yeah.. the errors I got were quite intermittant.. I think I got a couple of errors every 25-30 passes.. (Corrected number of passes) Do you mean you had your test running for 15-20 hours? Because it took almost 2 hours for 2 passes. :roll: :?: :?: IIRC.. I ran the tests over a weekend.. so yes, it ...

Anyhow, it's really good to see the Blog back online and in action.. Long Live Blogasys! Nigel Hi Nigel, thanks ! ... I was already wondering were you have been all the time. What about your CD? As in all things musical, my CD is much delayed though it is almost finished. At some point I am going ...

Yes, I inverted mine and there was a small improvement over time for me at least. Im not sure I actually posted this next bit here.. but I did find some random errors via Memtest, in the upper end of the Factory 'stick' that could have given issues when that particular part of the mapped memory was ...

Without wishing to sound like a walking ad for a particular company, the following is the deal I got from Ecomelectronics.com for anyone who is interested. One 2.4ghz 17" Macbook Pro with 4 Gigs 6ns Memory, the upgraded High Rez Screen and 7200 rpm Drive... and a 'free' Hard shell Case - Total price ...

Yes, it has the 7200 drive already inside.. and yeah, I was looking at the Motu, nice unit but it's a shame it doesn't have more Analog inputs (Only 6). However I can get a good deal one with DP5 for an extra $300.. as part of the Crossgrade pricing so I might go for that.. Don't know yet though as ...

Okay.. so after doing a few try outs with various different bits of gear.. (and I have to admit the MV-8800 was the only bit to really tempt me) I finally came across a great deal on a brand new Macbook Pro (The newest one, top of the range with the 17" Hi-rez screen) that I would have been crazy to ...

I would (and do) use Combis for that purpose. Combis for me are just multi-timbral/FX setups that are easy to recall when using an external sequencer. Regarding not using the "extra" functionality on an MV or MPC type unit; I think if you had one you would probably find the drum/sample capabilities ...

One further question.. from a workflow point of view.. As I don't use external sequencers that much with the Oasys.. I'm thinking about doing the following.. in order to get things working in a simple but effective manner. Set up the sounds I want in the Oasys via it's internal sequencer page.. fx ...

While it may be a great sequencer, it would mean I would be paying that much on top of the Oasys price to compensate for the woeful state of the Oasys sequencer. So it looks like back to software & the computer for me. Well your gonna wait a long time before you see something this worthy inside the ...

I started with the thought that it was just a toy for triggering sliced loops, but I was very wrong ... and ended up being massively impressed with it's abilities. I've got an appointment made with GC this afternoon to spend some time playing with one.. I'll let you know what I feel after doing so ...
