jem, could you elaborate what you mean by using md's??? The only thing i could think of using a md in a breakdown is playing a recorded sample or something.

well on how he was making those effects, he was probably using a mixer with built-in effects, or an extra effects box, like the Kaos Pad or the Pioneer EFX500, which can be plugged in to most mixers.

As for what effects he used during those breakdowns well unless u have a sample of the effect, it could be any of the following or even other effects, but these are the most basic: echoes, reverbs, delays, and flangers.

ok
you record samples on your Mini Disc and then burn it to the mini disc and then play it over the part of the vinyl that you want to hear from the sample on the mini disc

uhh....why dont you just burn it to a cd and play it in a cdj? pretty much all clubs have cd players...


by the way...if you wanna hear some sweet live effcts and scratching listen to some stuff by zabiela. he uses the poineer fx machine.

Zabiela is definitely the man when it comes to effects and sampling. And yea, using a MD is completely pointless. There is no advantage to using an MD over a simple sampler.

The only thing i used my MD was recording my live sets. Now i just use my laptop instead, so md is kinda pointless for me.

ferry could also have been using the filters if he was using a xone62 or 92

is this the model that zabiela uses?

also, he uses cd's... it is easier/harder/same with vinyl?

he used the efx500 for scratching too right?

ya thats the pioneer fx unit Zabs uses

and what do you mean easier/harder etc?

i dunno man... when he's playing with that box it looks like he's using samples a lot and that would seem easier with cd's

well i guess a better question is would it make any harder/easier for zabiela to do what he does if he used vinyl instead of cd's
