Nice Sound Paul :)

Is it possible to connect the RX5 via midi or something to the PC/Mac and use it as a controller in Cubase/Logic/Ableton? Do you know that? I hope you´ll answer...

So long as you connect a midi lead from the midi out of the RX5 to the midi in of the Soundcard to your computer the answer is yes. However, I guess it depends what midi control data you want to control. The drum pads on the RX5 should be just like keys on a keyboard, so yes you could get the RX5 to trigger other drums on the computer and use the RX5 to create patterns. Let me dig it out later and see what else it might do.

Hi, yeah, its pretty much as I said. However, the drum pads are not touch sensitive but you can use the accent keys. Interestingly, this machine is 16 part multi timbral, so 1 drum sound can be used on any midi channel and through an external keyboard as a controller the drums have a different pitch on each key. Also, it is velocity sensitive using a keyboard. You can also edit the sounds like real samples loop etc and a whole lot more. Not bad for 1987. Hope this helps Paul AKA Anjelicas Baby

Thankyou, I was a bit taken aback at what it sounded like once I started messing with it.

Could you please do a demo of your Akai s700? Would really like to hear what it sounds like, and what kind of manipulations it can do to the sounds e.g. modulating loop points etc.
