What do you think of the LiveMail Beta? I'm using it too, but find it a real hassle with lower res dekstops - the columns are too narrow. Plus it doesn't like Firefox, so I have to use IE to check my hotmail now. Considering opting out, but I'll stick with it for a few more weeks.

Fuck, I just realised what a dope tool this is. Everyone should download this now and scratch drum till the cows come home. And when's the next one coming out???

I'm liking the pic of the puddle - it's a nice photo, did you take it x2k? And that one way mirror public toilet looks freaky! I wonder how many pervs they've caught masturbating in that thing...

Hell yeah they're making this film. It's going to be the Event of the Year!!! [/geek]

Time to break out the Rofflecopter.

What firewall are you using?

Yes, the keylock will not work *with* SSL's mp3s, but it will work with a real record, if you use the thru function of the SSL box. But given that the TTX's keylock only works when the Line output is selected on the TTX, you have to have 4 line inputs on your mixer.

I reckon it's fake. I mean, how can you master without pressing a plate?

No, your keylock will work if you connect it the way you do. Remember the SSL is also designed to be used with CD players, so the box will accept a line-level signal. The thru connections will pass through whatever signal you feed into it originally. BUT Also remember that the Scratch amp will spit out the computer's output as a line-level signal, so if you want to send a line level through, you have to use a mixer with 4 line inputs. eg this won't work on Vestax mixers (only 2 channel, input switchable from Phono to Line)

So is Avant any good then?

Those pics are old though (from 2004), which is quite interesting, because Apple has actually released products very similar to those. Like the USB key things- Apple eventually released the Shuffle. And the smaller capacity / smaller size iPods = the nano.

I use Crucial for all my RAM needs. They are consistently well rated, and have good customer service. I always like buying direct from the manufacturerif I have the chance.

Yeah, you can multitrack record on a P3 667 with 512MB RAM easy (my old set-up)! I used to run Cool Edit Pro, with the onboard sound, no probs at all. So a P3 700 will be cool too. Just get more RAM, do a fresh install of XP , I'd probably wouldn't even bother with up-to-date GFX drivers if all you want to do is record with it. Just get stable drivers. As for recording with SSL - you'd most likely need another PC to record to. Run SSL from your main PC / laptop and just record into your old P3.

It's all in your mind. You have the physical ability to flare just as fast and clean with a reg crossfader as a hamster fader. The fader movements are pretty much the same.

Oh man, I saw this Venturer mp3 player in the display cabinet they have in Argos. It looked like it was the size of a normal desktop hard-drive! Not a laptop HDD, a desktop one. It was frickin huge! Still, it wouldn't be bad as a in-home mp3 jukebox. And as Liam said, it would probably be easy to swap out the hard disk.

I get a 404 File not found error. Is this still there or is it gone? I'd like to check it out.

SSL started life on Macs....but I don't think that makes any difference whether it's better on Macs or PCs. I use a PC with it, and (beta versions excluded) it's been rock solid.

ok, am i the only one who can't work out how this is a scratch drum assistant? Like, what am i supposed to do, use it as a click track and drum to it?

^^lol ya got me. :$

Yeah well, fuck, it's all fine and good for people who paid attention the first time around, and either got it or gave up. What about those of us who didn't get it, or didn't give a fuck then? It's just another scratch I wanted to learn, cos I felt like it, and I think scratching is still fun to do from time to time. And what better way to keep up the fun factor but to learn a new combo. And to set the record straight, it looks like I got it down now, so I'll shut the fuck up about it, if it'll make everyone happy.

FUCKING CLICK!!!!! Yeah, I got it now. OK, here's how it is for me... The name "delayed 2 click" is a perfect description. You are actually delaying the placement of the 2 clicks. The 2 clicks themselves are performed like a normal 2 click flare, it's just that there is a space between the pairs of clicks. This corraborates with Ryan's desciption that it's the rhythm being tapped out on the fader. Vekked's description of it being just a bunch of transforms isn't too far off either. When this scratch first came out, people were calling it a 2-click delayed flare which threw me, because I was still placing the clicks in the middle of the record pull/push. Now I see people have omitted the 'flare' from the name, which is correct. IT IS NOT A FLARE. You need to do two sets of 2 clicks for a complete delayed 2 click, so the above posted transcription is one correct way of doing a delayed 2 click. There are other ways you can start it, but I now see that this transcription is what muzzell does on his video. It's not a chirp at the start, because at the end of the first record pull back, you have to close the fader again. It helps to think of this part as a transform. So it's almost like doing a complete chirp, then closing the fader and doing a forward transform. There is a total of 6 sounds in a complete delayed 2 click orbit, which includes 4 clicks of the fader total, and 3 record pushes + 3 pulls. A normal 2 click flare orbit also has 6 sounds and 4 fader clicks, but there is only one record push and one record pull. ....so am I right?

OK, it's starting to come together now. I've seen that trasncription before, but it always looked like a chirp to me. But with muzzells and ryans descriptions it's slowly beginning to make a bit more sense. Off to the lab I go - I'll probably be back for more help, cos I'm thick with shit like this sometimes.

Fuck it, I can't get this down either. Saint's explanation sounds like a chirp to me. And muzzell's explanation... ... I don't understand, even with the video. To me, muzzell's explanation sounds like a chirp-flare. Can anyone else help me out?
