Hmmm... sorry about that. When I created it I thought it would have the right permissions. Let me know if it's working now.tommymandel wrote:Hi James, I just got this:

How did it KNOW that I hadn't bought BPM, and was just planning on Lurking?

Re: New Motu Product? BPM?
I think it's still not working - I got the same message, even though I deleted my cache, and reloaded the page.
I'm turning in now, but I'm sure James'll have it going before you can say "Flyin V".

Re: New Motu Product? BPM?
Maybe I'm missing something, but BPM appears to be functionally identical to fxpansion's Guru: http://www.fxpansion.com/index.php?page=4&tab=21 which has been out for a while now.
I can't get my head wrapped around the concept of a "virtual Akai MPC", which is obviously what they are trying to emulate. The essence of a machine like that is the hardware interface itself, pad reponse, etc - just ask someone who uses them. Once you take that away you're largely left with a generic sampler with a few ad-ons. Having a "virtual MPC" is like having a "virtual Kurzweil PC2X piano-action". The picture on the screen doesn't mean diddly if you're playing it with an Oxygen keyboard. But maybe I'm missing something....

Re: New Motu Product? BPM?
That might be true, but if you're using a pad controller (like some of the ones Akai has made lately), having the exact same pads on screen makes a lot more sense.philbrown wrote:The picture on the screen doesn't mean diddly if you're playing it with an Oxygen keyboard.

Re: New Motu Product? BPM?
Nope. I don't think you are missing anything. It's like GURU with an updated interface and a few additional bells and whistles...philbrown wrote:Maybe I'm missing something, but BPM appears to be functionally identical to fxpansion's Guru: http://www.fxpansion.com/index.php?page=4&tab=21 which has been out for a while now....
Not saying that's a bad thing. Just is.
15GBs of "urban rhythm" sounds....goodness. I hope they post some info on the other genres that can be stretched to...that's a lot of library.
I suppose the drag and drop goodness possible with Rex and other formats expands it a bit. But I would have loved to see that library also encompass some "world", orchestral, industrial, glitch....
Come to think of it, GURU does have many many more styles and genres available though a much smaller library.

Re: New Motu Product? BPM?
I think you can use the sample libraries from other MOTU instrument plug-ins with BPM, which greatly expands your choices: MSI, Ethno, MachFive 2, and Electric Keys. Also, you can use any sample library from UVI SoundSource (uvisoundsource.com).nk_e wrote:Nope. I don't think you are missing anything.

The leading cause of wrong answers is asking the wrong questions.
Re: New Motu Product? BPM?
Okay.. my wife called and I got the BPM waiting for me at home.. GOD! I want to go home.. Should I fake stomach cramps? Sit in the bathroom for a really long time? Have my wife call an say our daughter is sick? Please help me everyone, what should I do? 
Most likely I just have to tough it out..

Re: New Motu Product? BPM?
Cool... it will be interesting to hear the reports. Any way, now that I've created a BPM forum here, I'll move this topic over there.

Re: New Motu Product? BPM?
Question for everyone that has BPM.. Is there a way I can change teh (Black & White lettering to a different color) on the instrument, kits, kit+pattern tabs? I think they are kind of hard to see...
James please forgive if this is in the wrong area.. Is it possible to create a General question thread?
