Subject:: [idm] live on the puter

hey guys. got some personal opinion questions for all of you. i am currantly putting together a live show and heres the deal on that. i am piecing some instances in fruity. around 30 fruity loop songs all worked out with real time effect-ability. now, what i plan on doing is mixing between two instances of fruity loops such as a dj would records. i open up two fruity loop programs and run each ones sound to a diffrent sound card. from each sound card i run a line to a mixer channel. now in doing so it allows me to play one song, and get another one ready in the next instance of fruity, all while fiddling knobs on a phat boy designated to the currant instance. i am currious if anyone has seen or has done this before. and those of you who just attend shows rather than create them, does this sound like somthing you could keep interest in (if the music was of your tastes). any feedback would be appreciated. thanks, mike _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

There is a mailing list on Egroups called IDM-Making. There are loads of people that use Fruity Loops on this list. All of your questions will be answered. -l on 1/25/01 8:36 AM, Dr. Robot at thatweirdkid@hotmail.com wrote:

This sounds cool to my ears. I've heard other rumblings online about this sort of thing and it definitely sounds interesting. The bottom line would seem to be: first, does it work like you want it to work? second, does it keep you interested and motivated? third, does it sound good? though, not necessarily in that order... One caution though: RAM RAM RAM RAM RAM. Okay, that's five and when I say it that way, it sounds like gay sex a la Heathers. But definitely make sure you have enough memory. I don't know your setup, but a slow PC (because you have too little memory) would kill you during a performance. Otherwise, go for it. ---brian ------------------------ Brian W.

i do something very similar with my live set, except i don't use a computer and there is no song sequencing whatsoever. rather its a "mix-n-match" of different pattern-based loops that i sequence onboard on 3-6 pieces of gear. (quasimidi 309, sirius, korg e-series, sometimes i use an mmt8 to sequence virus and other synths) .. and i would really say, this is how ya do it! this is about as live as it gets barring hiring a band! so i definitely admire your idea for using fruityloops. but of course i'm more of the mindset that you shouldn't sequence _ANY_ song, instead just have a set of patterns that you want to play and then mix them live. have you considered that? gives a lot of freedom for spontaneity. other than that, my only concerns would be about the computer, ie: will there be lag? how simple is it to mute tracks? you should be able to mute a large number of tracks at once (i have mutes assigned to a keyboard so i can easily play "chords" to mute a number of tracks).. and other computer related things, like how fast are you with a mouse. oh and this is an important one! how many outputs do you have? are you planning on using any effects? just some things to think about. i would be curious to hear how this turns out though! oh and have you seen this software "live"? was debuted at NAMM, looks very cool for the live performance. -jonah --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

Subject:: [idm] re: live on the puter

I've been doing a couple of live PAs, mostly on gear. Started up with so many stuff, I'd lose where to start at one point. Now I run a more minimal setup to do a much more minimal set but I've also been practicing those sets on my puter and here's some stuff i realised: - You can use Fruity Loops to do your live but I strongly suggest you work with 1 open program instead of 2. The reason is simple, I've tried it with 2 programs using my soundblaster and my Delta 44 and It would be unstable at some moments. The more you use, the higher the risks. - So, I did a lil live in my studio with 60 loops and variants running with my midi controller (doepfer 64 knobs) and it was interesting... I felt like a skilled DJ. - I've tried using AudioMulch and it was quite a thrill building my own environment, using tons of granulators, bubble blowers, loop players. It felt alot more lighter and faster. I felt like Vald Delay... Results were interesting but a bit chaotic. - I've builted a similar environment in Reaktor but never really finnished it as I would get lost with all my wires and stuff. The first results are yet unknown. - As a Beta tester of Tassman and friend of mr. Deadbeat (on Background), I tried building an environment but im not there yet... But I felt like it was AudioMulch but less chaotic. That was my point ;) _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
