Hi Bachus.

the piano sounds great for a giga sample, but still there are some better sounding piano vst's around. I like truepiano's a lot... the physical modelling adds a lot of body to the piano sound. Nevertheless this might be the best piano sound i ever heard comming from an arranger keyboar


Yeah, I think it goes without saying regardless of what sample library you use it will never best Modelling Technology. Wait until I get to the VSTi parts and start using PianoTeq.

I guess the point really is at this stage though look at what you can do. Giga Files are no problem for the keyboard, the same should be true for Modelling Technology when I get around to testing it.

Keep them comming these video's, It feels like finally we will be getting to know the true possibilities of the Mediastation..
Can't wayt till we get to hear some styles playing on Q-ranger or the Live styler...


Will do, and thanks for the feedback.

Yeah, very expressive and realistic. Have to say I love those sounds.

Thanks.
Yeah, thought people might like to hear some Celtic based sounds as they usually sound terrible on closed keyboards. It's an easy way to show the superiority of Giga files.

where did you get those from


Time & Space in the UK. It's an AKAI S1000 format CD called World Winds by Dirk Campbell.

Yeah the reaction has been very different to anything we have seen the in past. Normally we see a little confrontation, but now there's just silence.

Guess I'll take it as a good sign.

Sleep ? What's that
You wouldn't know it to look at me in the video but I'm in bits with a bad cold there. It took a few takes just to do the introduction because I couldn't stop coughing.

Cheers
James.

The reason is we already know all of this stuff Tony... I had no issues with mine with ANY of the Giga sounds (a doddle) VST sounds ( a bit more tricky) and combis.

All pretty straightforward stuff really.

Its the opertaiional side that let it down for me. Simple things like the MP3 player crashing because the mp3 had tags..Dom never ever got back to me about why that was (that was the built in player, 3rd party players like VLC et al, had no problem), even though I sent him samples.

I assume that has now been fixed, but it still IS the Studio 64 linux distro Lionstracs uses, as far as I can tell. So maybe it is or isn't. A normal mp3 was fine, but onece it had tags , no go!

I am waiting for the more in depth operational aspects, and how solid the udnerlying Linux distro is, just as onle a couple of things. There are more but I am going to wait without saying much.

A trait you may need to learn waiting without saying much..

Great research there, they have moved away from Studio 64 over a year ago and are now using Kubuntu in MEdiastation and Groove.

Right, and who do you think prepares Lionstracs software and provides the ISO packages?

And if you bothered to check the 64 Studio website you would see that Lionstracs is STILL listed as a partner.


Why dont you check YOUR facts. It is Kubuntu on a Studio 64 (or 64 Studio)distro...

64 studio prepare all of Lionstracs
software and provide the ISO packages.

An apology will be welcome anytime

Miden,

James,

You’re a star in the making, tell that camera man to turn off the auto focus, it keeps moving in and out or it the shaky floor, you know James every bit of DVD of the MS is tosh, it’s good to see some good DVD and sound, take Lemsip James with pochine and just get on with it, you’re the salesman now, you taking Italian lessons. Buona fortuna James
