    Hello Everyone 🙂
    I am Very Pleased to see that this Thread is still Active; and that there have been some Very Valuable Contributions since I became So Unwell that I have been Hospitalised 3 Times since I was last able to visit Our Forum;
    I had a Heart Attack; followed by a Further Heart Attack (as I didn’t listen to the Hospitals Advice regarding Complete Bed Rest – as I had a Radio Show to finish); and then in the past few weeks a Bad Cold developed into Bronchial Pneumonia; and I am a Very Very Lucky Girl to still be here;
    However; Unfortunately I Feel No Pleasure in Still Being Alive; in fact I have become So Desperately Depressed I am even Beyond Suicide (Suicide being an ‘Active Step’)
    I Missed my last Committment to the Radio Show (having been told that I am the Second Most Downloaded DJ – Above the 5th and 12th Female DJ’s in the World; and Second to a DJ who has Sold over 2 Million Records); and I Feel Devestated; it Feels like my Career is Over as I have No Eagerness towards Producing another Set; and just stay in bed All Day Every Day 🙁
    I have Very Much Missed the Community of this Forum and the Friends I met here 🙁

    I absolutely LOVE Ableton, it mapped in to the omnicontrol like a dream, id LOVE to try it on an APC20… but DJ sets in Ableton is all about preparation so this kinda takes the fun out of it for me… if i want to lay a technically perfect mix, Ableton wins hands down…

    But i kinda like the sound of those little mistakes that creep in when you wing a set on the fly, where you didnt quite mix out or in just fast enough, where the beats are just slightly out and i correct them
    I like that if you listen you can hear the errors, it proves that its me, a fallible human being is doing all the hard work. i think it makes the mix just that little bit better.. yeah i stuffed that bit up and held it together just fine!
    So VDJ still holds number 1 position here

    I Still Mess Up in Ableton on Occasions 🙂
    I have the ‘Next Audio’ to Begin on the ‘Next Bar’; so 4 Beats Time; but if I am Not Concentrating; or ‘With It’; when I press ‘Play’ or ‘Scene Launch’; it Will Begin On The Next Bar; but it May Not Be The Bar I Wanted It To Start On 🙂

Is sound quality dramatically better with the more expensive controllers? Or am I just letting myself get carried away, fantasizing about all the different equipment I could potentially own?….
    Sorry but that was not a question about just getting better sound IMO.

    And getting an external soundcard that has the same or better soundquality as the MC6000 would not be much cheaper and also it would be one more thing to bring to the giggs.

    Hello Hessler;
    I am Very Sorry for being Completely Out Of Character on the day I wrote my Post (and Other Posts); I Suffered a Myocardial Infarction (Heart Attack) in the Early Hours following this Post; and have only just been Released from Hospital; You Don’t Threaten Me With Your Words/Views; and I am not Particulary Afraid To Express My Views; however; Challenging Others is not Normal Practice for me as it is None Of My Business What Anyone Does;
    But; I Must Feel ‘Able’ To Speak Without Fear Of Retribution; otherwise this Forum Does Not Apply to the Rules Of Freedom Of Speech And Expression;
    I Don’t Really Wish To Continue This ‘Dispute’ With You; and Would Rather Just Allow It To Pass;

    I am Very Very Sorry for the Experience you Suffered Watching Your Mum Die Groovemixer 🙁 🙁
    My Mum Held Onto Me And Covered Me With Her Body To Protect Me Whilst She Died In A Fire;
    But Without My Dad; My Husband; And My Baby (All Deceased); And My Own Terminal Condition (Cancer);
    I Don’t See Any Bright Days; But I Do Pray For Others Happiness And Good Health

    I am Pleased the Subject of A Higher Power has come up;
    As I Believe In A ‘Power Greater Than Myself’ (I Unfortunately used to Believe That ‘I’ Was God);
    And although (like this afternoon) I was a Milemetre from Suicide (and had Forgotten Everything About Any Power Greater Than Myself); My ‘Higher Power’ put somebody in front of me who made this Action Of Suicide ‘Impossible’
    (For Today);
    I Still Have To Live with The Absolute Desperation Of Feelings That Led Me To The Point Of Suicide;
    And Although I ‘Do’ Feel Completely Alone Right Now; with No Higher Power Looking After Me;
    I Know (only from Past Experience) that ‘He’ is There; and that When The Time Is Right Things Will Become Calmer
    (Usually To a Level Of Approximately 1% From Suicide – Which Is My ‘Balanced’ State Of Normality :();
    I Don’t Know Why I Have To Suffer And I Don’t Know What The ‘Big Plan’ Is;
    But I Continue To Have Faith; And Pray (For Others) Each Day

    Hello Dave;
    I looked in the Edit Menu last night but I couldn’t see anything about ‘Automatically Quantizing 4/8 Drum Loops and Making Beats On The Fly’ ?
