Getting back to funky days with a CP80 vs VDrum (played live) session. I'm always blown away that I can just take all the techniques I learnt in analogue studios and apply them in this odd hybrid DAW space! Old habbits: if I need to scroll vertically there's too many tracks! EQs all in a rack :-P

Back with the Weekly Beats for 2026! weeklybeats.com//ctrix/music... :-) First one, live drums (me) vs. the M8. Fun times... it starts of simple, but quickly unravels into some jazzy chaos!

At least it's still a functioning board - but I get ya. So much energy goes into a PCB and it's always something small. I labeled audio inputs and outputs back to front on a board once! (Only made 5 but I still shake my head when I see it!)

RIP Seiki Kato san; head of Korg prod planning in late 80s. He inspired the engineers to push the M1 to its limits even tho it seemed cost prohibitive; worked overtime with the sound designers; and just as he predicted, ROM prices fell just in time. For a while, Korg wore the multi-timbral crown!

Here's something for you to Zone out to. A while back we built a 12 x 16 lighting grid from addressable DMX poles and 0F.D and TommityTom made a timed MIDI / DMX show. Tommitytom coded up an arduino driver board and full pre-viz platform to test it on. Cheers for the vid datagoth!)

The percussion on this is absolutely wild. Sample gold I tell ya! I vaguely remember buying this years ago after quite a few drinks in Tokyo (inevitably ended up in a record store!) Somehow got slid in the trance section of my collection. It's always awesome to rediscover a random record!

Classic! I had a similar version, Cakewalk Home Studio. Limited to 4 audio tracks which took ages to buffer on play. Came with an AWE32 "musicians pack" w 2MB mem and EMU GS; terrible for techno! As soon as I could afford it I bought a Groovebox+ST224 (also to perform live) Never ran CW again :-o

Yup. I've got boxes and boxes of CDR's / spinning rust and even old sloppies I need to go though! (Been saying that for years) I'm super glad to see you've succeeded on recovering this one :-)
