Yamaha Motif XS

Posted By Tony on January 31, 2010

Check out this great WorkStation keyboard from Yamaha. It has great sounds from samples of real instruments. A sequencer records your MIDI data and it also records analog audio from a mic or guitar. It can be integrated with most computer DAW and works especially well with Cubase where it becomes a  control surface.  Come in today and check it out!

Workin’ on video… and audio…

Posted By Chris on September 5, 2009

So last Saturday, we had 3 events on the same day! It was kinda crazy in here, but there was a lot of great information, entertainment and money-saving going on that day.

Capture001I just finished going through one of the events, Hawaii Music Works performance.  They had 4 bands (!!!) perform that day, 11 songs total.  We recorded everything through our PreSonus StudioLive 16 channel mixer; it records 16 tracks separately to our computer. I also had 2 cameras shooting video from the event.  I got all the tracks from our computer last night and uploaded the video to my computer over the past week (500 gigs of video, 2 hours worth!).
