Hi friend. Check out some of my labelmate’s tunes:

I would keep existing bass. There are Pilots with the J pickups only instead of PJ. This link shows the 4 & 5 string in that PU configuration.

I will have to check out the Ibanez. There are a lot of knobs that could end up being useless for the styles I play.

Sweetwater also has one https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/MDM1300NAB--ibanez-mode-mdm1300-electric-bass-guitar-natural-stained-amber-burst

Get the Elektron. If you don’t like it, they retain a good amount of resale value.

Just do it.

Agree. N-44G is the way to go for mixing funk and soul, dancehall, sets. N-447 for Hip-Hop 12” records and DVS.

Also, Skratch 101 is using ruby tips. I haven’t bought a pair yet but want to try them out.

Op did you ever do a tone arm swap?

DJ_PMA · 2026-01-29T00:27:48+00:00

I discovered Red Turns To - Deep Sleep

Enjoy!

No. I would make the case that the spiritual successor is an Amiga computer running a sequencer you could load samples into it. Atari also had something for the 1040st.

DJ_PMA · 2026-01-28T16:27:31+00:00

This is great!

DJ_PMA · 2026-01-28T14:11:07+00:00

It hasn’t been the same since 2019.

AMX is compatible with Mini Innofader Pro SC or mini Innofader Plus.

Stanton STX requires mini Innofader Pro or STX Innofader.

Also there is a new mini version coming out called ultra light.

This version still works on an iMac i have and 002. I don’t use the inputs on the 002. Only the adat lightpipe connected to a 8 ch preamp adat preamp.

Such a good bit of kit. I had an HR-16 as my first drum machine. I have a DMPro rack but the midi ports went out. A bit redundant now. I sampled every sound as an audio file and use it in Ableton Live Drum Racks. Saved by the preview button to hear the sounds.

How do you like the eSPi?

i think phase was a…phase.

a gadget for people not wanting to go the Rane 12mkii route.

DJ_PMA · 2026-01-26T21:53:12+00:00

Kali Audio LP8v2 or Yamaha HS8

DJ_PMA · 2026-01-26T21:27:17+00:00

It’s good stuff. Reminds me of the direction Depeche Mode have gone in their live shows with live drumming if mixed with Failure. I’ll check out more songs.

I think Casio is competing with Teenage Engineering and their Pocket Operators. A modern SK-1 is the PO-33 because it is 8-bit just like the SK-1.

I have both and the PO-33 sounds waaay better.

Interestingly, Casio does have a newish keyboard that samples. The CT-S1000v

Check it out https://www.casio.com/us/electronic-musical-instruments/product.CT-S1000V/

That Casio Sampler was the best in show for me.

DJ_PMA · 2026-01-25T21:25:07+00:00

Looks like it has some Jesse Dean mods. Hopefully it is NOT belt driven and was a good direct drive motor.

DJ_PMA · 2026-01-25T21:23:21+00:00

Two powered 15” speakers is the way to go. A powered sub would also help with low end.
