JP8000 newbie has several silly questions
Posted: 13:09, 12 January 2012
Hi Clan,
I'm seeking your help to inform what is most probably a very simple rig decision but which requires knowledge my very inexperienced brain is sorely missing. So apologies in advance for making anyone's eyes roll on reading this....
My current setup is:
* VK-7 (spot on for organ)
* JP-8000 (great for effects)
Target is:
* Without having to lug around any more 'keys', gain access to some 'real' EP, Rhodes and Clav sounds.
Solution??:
* Well where I'm hoping to land is to use the JP to play back sounds from an external sound module like an XV3080 using the SRX-12 expansion. I must admit I really haven't managed to fully understand the JP manual yet. The section entitled 'selecting sounds on an external MIDI sound source' seems to answer q1 below but I really want to be sure I'm not overlooking something...
So, my questions are:
1) Will this work (and how, if not just RTFM on p93, would I do it)?
2) What limitations would I be facing?
3) Would something else work better?
4) Can/How would I record patterns into the sequencer from the sound module and save them as a performance
Any help you kind folk could offer greatly appreciated!
Cheers
