What you asked has NOTHING AT ALL to do with M50...it should be done on some
other forum or in the Sampling section in here...if you use the M50 as a controller
for somekind of machine the question doesnt necesarilly belong here, thats why you
get mixed answers. If it was in a proper category then you would probably get more
reasonable answer. M50 and Samples have no place together, no matter if you controll
the unit with M50 or not. Its like asking how do i make a Cake on a Computer forum.
Such hostility. Ultimately I'm looking for a way to cheat and incorporate this into the m50 somehow. Thus the reason I want to find some samples that are shared and experiment with using the m50 as a controller or finding some way to cheat the system and use samples thru the m50. These are two separate issues, but tied together and ultimately I'm looking for m50 users to help lead the way or possibly give me something that I haven't thought of
Yup, Nedim can be like that at times :lol: just don't pay too much attention to him :wink:

Now seriously, you can control any sampler (or DAW with a sampler VSTi) using your M50 or any other MIDI controller. Although, is easier with the M50, since you can set some tracks in your combis to play external patches, so you can easily mix internal and external sounds using the same keybed. But at the end, it will be the same if you control a sampler, or a Hammond emulator or a guitar vst. The M50 doesn't know what is in the other end, and that is maybe the confusion. The M50 doesn't need to know what is on the other side. You do :wink:

Guys, please: fireincairo82 is a newbie in this forum. Is it THAT difficult to help him out?

Don't loose your precious time on answering his post if that bothers you. Life is much more than getting upset about such a little thing. ( una PELOTUDEZ, in Argentinian Spanish)

If you are trying to "educate" him about forum etiquette, please, be my guest and fill out an application in a music school, a place where you surely will apply all of your music / programming expertise.

I think the problem many are having is that it's hard to know what he's asking; he knows that the M50 can't do sampling but wants to do it anyway ("cheat" in his own words)...

The options are to clarify that it is not possible or to try to come up with some sort of scheme to either reprogram the machine yourself (not very likely) or build in a sampler into the M50 chassis; those are the two methods that I would see as "cheating". Otherwise there is the perfectly valid advice of going with an external sampler, which is what some were recommending (though it can hardly be called cheating).

So, to the OP, if you connect the two keyboards via MIDI you should be able to trigger the samples and sounds on the Casio with the M50 if you set it up right. Alternatively you could get a sampler and expand your options that way. But you can also ask yourself, if you're going to use two keyboards in your setup, if it isn't easier to just trigger the samples on the Casio with its own keyboard.
