No. Music did not exist before computers.

Yes. Although I have no hardware effects units, so they would sound pretty dry. :-)

Hell yes, link a couple of electribes together and away you go!

You could just do one rs7000 but that fucker, although powerful and very good, takes ing ages to master.

I would post link to vids of live sets in simple setups but that doesn't work here (*hint hint diginuts) :p

Really, though, I hate how Flash and other bandwidth-heavy stuff gets used so indiscriminately these days. Players and video embeds dumped all over social networking sites, MySpace Music being one of the worst examples. Threads on boards, including this one, made enormously long by dozens of YouTube videos being posted. People have forgotten the virtues of efficiency and clean design on the web. This little forum is immune to this stupid trend right now, and I hope it stays that way.

How is that a problem? Instant gratification is not part of learning to make music.

There are tons of great hardware sequencers out there. I use a genoQs Octopus for most of my MIDI sequencing, and a few different analog sequencers with CV and gate inputs and outputs for modulars and a few other things with voltage control. Beyond that, I use an Atari Mega ST here and there, and Numerology with some custom templates set up to work with my multi-channel MIDI-CV units.

No a "problem" as such, just that the RS7000 is a groovebox, drum machine, sampler, sequencer, mixer (with fx and complex routing) and synth in one. If you have tracks that you want to play out with, then getting them in to the RS7000 will take months of programming.

IF you made the tracks in the RS7000, then that's a different thing, and it's a joy to use, but seriously, I know people who gig with them (professionally) and it took them 3 years to fully master it, and these are the same guys that can sit in front of a new sequencer such as logic or cubase and have it all down in a couple of days.

@jive - I hear you about the flash vids, but seriously, there's no other way currently to embed ok video with sound. I hate youtube vids for their quality in the same way I hate low bitrate mp3's but they serve a purpose and until there's a change in infrastructure like mass bandwidth speed increases or advancements in file compression technology, flash vids are going to stay around and be popular.
