New SonicCell owner

[comradec]

Hello there.

I have recently acquired a SonicCell, together with the BKT-S and PDS-10 stands.

I'm hoping that it will provide a solution to the problems involved in trying to put several songs on a single project for a live set on the Fantom-G that I also own. That really is a nightmare. The only practical way of writing songs on the Fantom-G is to work on the basis of one song per project but it's very difficult then to bring together the data from a group of songs. Hopefully, the ability to play MIDI/audio files on the SonicCell will enable me to perform live without days of extra programming work.

I will also be able to use the SonicCell's sound module with a smaller control keyboard (such as my Gaia SH-01), which will save me having to take a heavy synth workstation to small-scale gigs, like the singer-songwriter nights that I sometimes play.

And I plan to use the SonicCell as a USB audio interface and sound module with Ableton Live 8 Suite. I have found Native Instruments Kontakt 3.5 to be a less than reliable VSTi due to frequent freeze-ups and note sticking, whatever the buffer settings.

No questions from me at this stage of the proceedings but I look forward to participating in the forum, both to ask questions and hopefully to answer some too.

Hi comradec,
Welcome to the SonicCell world !!

Very nice and versatile little machine!!
I'm using it as:
1- my secondary Sound module
2-USB audio card
3- also using it's MFX3 to process effects from my V-Synth XT direct outs (that have no effects) or to add effects to any other device.
4- and of course, using it's Audio/midi Player
Very handy

Enjoy it
Cheers
