Her hands are like birds.

Quite a latency on those switches, they are probably all different too, she knows that gear well. Each note was sampled onto tape and then physically cut to form a loop and then played like this into a master, my God, would anybody have the patience to make music that way now?

@MrGodthatdied im telling you, save those pennies, it was the best £700 i ever spent in my whole life

@militaryminded85

MrGodthatdied : Can I really compose future sound with ProTools? Thinking Dalia making her work with laptop is arrogant and silly, sorry. Maybe we (sound designers) should think sound that doesn't exist and can't even done with pc. _This is what Dalia did._

@MrGodthatdied well i used reason and logic for years and i had a little go of fl studio.

but when i got my mpc, my beats really excelled, it was so much more comfortable to make music on and the swing and time shifting is unmatched, i still use reason for FX and synth tho, mpc and pc actually work well hand in hand, i even got an akai mpk mini to see if software was better, i own an mpc2000xl and 1000 and i personaly think mpc is better but you can use mpc and pc together by midi

@militaryminded85

a fine machine, but can't beat a computer

[militaryminded85]

@MrGodthatdied im sorry, but i think she would have used an akai mpc 1000 today lol

[MrGodthatdied]

This woman would've had an orgasm if she saw today's computers with reason or pro tools installed
