Guest tompty Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Listening to flim for the first time in a couple of years got me thinking about how tracks around this time were sequenced. I remember seeing a live pic a while back showing rdj using an MPC 60 for his live shows, was this around 97? cant find it now. Would be interested to know, as some of the tracks sequencing gets pretty complex to achieve on an MPC 60.

Would be interested to know, as some of the tracks sequencing gets pretty complex to achieve on an MPC 60. on the 1000 the "sequence edit" facilities are pretty good. copy, paste, move, replace, move back and forward, transpose, change velocity, change duration, etc. if you know them well and think ahead a bit, you can build up complex patterns very quickly by using combos of these e.g. a snare rush from copy+velocity used recursively. if the MPC60 has all that (never used it myself), it might not be as bad as you'd think. that being said, i wouldn't be surprised if he used an Atari ST or a Powermac. Powermac is my bet -- i always kind of pictured it being made on a computer Edited July 29, 2011 by hahathhat Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/67805-sequencer-circa-come-to-daddy/#findComment-1627796 Share on other sites More sharing options...
marf Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Maybe it was a tracker. People forget about trackers. When i was on xltronic i saw people rip into Grant from rephlex on all manner of things. No one knew it was Grant. I only knew cause I got his email by accident after asking for tech support on a synth. So it goes to show how little it matters if you are one of the cool kids on an internet forum. No reflection on real life and what you are doing.

sinesurfin Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 (edited) I think for Flim it might have been a Windows or Mac based Cubase + softsynths apparently for Bucephalus Bouncing Ball it was Csound sampled into MPC-60 Edited July 30, 2011 by TNT Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/67805-sequencer-circa-come-to-daddy/#findComment-1627945 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hahathhat Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 yes, it would seem he initially went mac, then switched to PCs (the vaio at gigs). perhaps some enterprising forumite will start a thread about "The Aphex Twin: Mac or PC?"

xy_politics Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 HAB and Spotlight Remix were done on an Atari Falcon/CDP according to my info, it's possible that RDJ LP and CTD were too.

marf Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 (edited) atari falcon would just be a sequencer no? I imagine very limited sampler ability.

marf Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 (edited) There is simply no way of know what Richard uses. I only know he was user Panflet on Analog Heaven mailing list. I can only guess on Bucephalus Bouncing Ball an eventide H3000 was used. Or some other high end digital delay with sampler option.
