So I'm thinking about picking up one of the M-Audio Trigger Fingers for drums and sampling, anyone used one? They're moderately inexpensive, but I don't want to buy one just b/c it's affordable, especially if it sucks...
My current setup:
Power Mac G4 w/ Ableton Live 4, Cubase SE, Reason 3.0, a few Native Instruments VSTi's (Pro 53, Reaktor, etc.)
1 x Fender Strat (American Standard)
1 x Ibanez Custom Electro-Acoustic Guitar
M-Audio Ozone Midi Audio Interface
M-Audio Firewire Audiophile
2 x Pioneer CDJ 800
1 x Technics sl1200MKII
Pioneer DJM 500
I know I added the DJ equipment in there, but meh, thought I'd be thorough...
Thanks in advance... Peace, Cheers,
Rob |

i don't want to spend 25cents on a gumball if it sucks!
i haven't used it, and its defiantely the piece of gear thats way more of a want then a need...but if you want to enjoy playing midi drums that much more, then have fun. i considered getting one myself, but decided to invest more money into my monitors instead. |

| controllers like that really only seem to benefit hip hop producers who actually play out their beats. so if you plan on doing anything like that, then this will be a pretty decent replacement for the mpc. |

Yeah man, I just can't afford an MPC right now, but I like using Ableton in my sets, and it seems like it would be a decent controller to use... I've actually never even talked to anyone whose used one yet tho, so I'm a little wary...
If I don't hear anything I may just save up and buy an MPC at the end of this summer...
BTW, I also mentioned this just because I got to do some prod work on an MPC and I really liked being able to program/control a majority of the elements in the track with a sampler, definitely allowed for some cool (albeit a bit shaky) improv, that I think could sound pretty good live if worked on... |
