Hi folks,
i'm searching for some tips / info / advices about a specfific piece of hardware.
I've got a quite complete-enough home studio at home. But sometimes i woulk to be able to create music "on-the fly"...
I mean, when i'm travelling in the train, or just sitting in a park or just lying in my bed...
I would like to be able to make some rythmic parts and simple synth lines without needing to power on the computer or the synths....
In the past i had one the first Electribe... the blue one (only synth, no rythmic...) EA1 it was I think...
Would you have some hints about these kind of piece of hardware ?
I've heard about the new MPC500 which is battery-powered... could be very nice for rythmic parts.
thanks for any advice you can give me !

yeah... i would almust forget about a hardware gear like a synth or a drum machine...
a laptop with an extra battery (yeah still short working time with a single one)
good headphones and asio4all
this for the most compact "on-the-fly" setup. |

mpc-500 for sure is nice to program beats out of samples, but thats it...
you could have some programs with synth sounds in it, but it would be weird to play them over the drum pads... could be inpirative as well, though...
