JoMoX MBase 11 Analog Kick Drum Module

http://bigcitymusic.com/ Just when you thought that a Jomox kick couldn't have more attack the MBase 11 comes along! This beast features a cool new metal noise parameter which can add a great little ping to the attack of the kick. The new version also adds a potentiometer dedicated for adjusting the kick's sound-shaping parameters, making your tweaking faster and more convenient. The MBase 11 has all of the standard MBase features like user-savable preset slots, midi control of pitch for killer kick bass lines, built in LFO for modulation and more. Welcome to the House of JoMox! No the screen doesn't flash like this all the time. Just a video thing.

would it be possible to connect the midi on this to a roland hand sonic and play it's samples like that? i want to set this up with the mbrane and i can't find it anywhere if they will take different midi channels for different sounds, i.e. out put two different kicks for two different pads.

@CaptainErn Yes you could play the MBase with the Handsonic via midi but the Jomox will only play one sound at a time.

does this have trigger inputs to trigger an acoustic bass drum ?

[bigcitymusic]

Yes, there is a trigger input which would allow you to use a microphone on an acoustic bass drum to trigger the MBase 11.

On one hand, this does sound great. On the other hand, I cannot rationalize spending $350+ on a device that makes one sound...

Based on what I've seen from this:

pro - concentrated on bass & drum (= more dedicated controls for that purpose)

con - why is there only 1 rotary knob to control the parameter that you have to select first?

anyway, nice to see & hear this thing for the first time :)

[rekaepa]

This would be perfect for making Hard Trance Kick drums :D

*I wonder if this is what Vengeance-sound uses for their samples O.o

When i can afford this (*along with my expected baby :3 ) I'll buy it :D

[19karl16]

dont mea to be stupid but could someone explain how this would work?? do you sequence it with something else??im new to this kinda stuff just trying to get into it

if you can help cheers

[myhapylife]

Can you layer two presets on module?

@detroitcalling

Basic thing what I do is this:

I send one midi-sequence with note-information about which sounds to play (kick/snare/hihat/toms/etceter­a)

Along side of this I send patchchange messages to the airbase (or mbase, but I'm gonna sell that one after all, need money for a new mixer... ) :(

These patchchange messages are created based on played note info. gate-on=send patchchange, pitch 0-127=patchnumber 0-127

So my MPC plays notes, Nord G2 makes patchchanges of them

i really urgently need to know how i can run the mbase 11 and controll its parameters via midi and perhaps even trigger more than one sound at the time...

i would really apreciate the help of any body... thank you very much

[detroitcalling]

@sirsicksik eh, eh, eh.. :) could you elaborate a bit more please: you say you can select more than one sound with external control of the jomox mbase 11? but how do you do it? can it be done with a normal midi controller? it would be great if you elaborate more for me as this is something i am extremely busy in finding out about....

pm me if you want - thanksssss

I've connected my mbase01 and airbase via the nord modular G2 which converts the midi-notes coming from my MPC2000XL to patchchange information. 11 pads trigger the sounds of mbase and airbase and the rest of the notes control which patch (kit-preset) is being played. Nice thing of Jomox... changing patch happens instantly :P

So I make up two sequences: one for the drum-rhythm and one for preset-sequencing. No extra midichannels needed and all kits instantly available.
