first post/may sound REAL stupid...

[benblue]

hello all, my new forum-mates,

i just got ACID, reason, and a virus, how do i make it like trance music?
kidding......

seriously though, ive had my indigo 2 for 6 months, and for some reason lately, the sound of the keys releasing has started to bother me...i dont have any other non-rack hardware synths, so nothing to compare it to.
is it just me and my semi-warped brain, or is this a loud sound? do other synths' keys make as much clicky clacky sound when releasing them or using aftertouch?

i hope i dont get flamed guys, (girls?)

Think up a unique and great melody with nice fresh chord progressions. The delete what you've done and do the opposite. Now you know the secret of trance.

Shucks! I just wasted my time then.

Click? Clack? I have a *thup* on my kB, which is the normal sound. I'm not sure does Indigo have the same keys, but there shouldn't be any clicks or clacks (unless the keys are cheap rubbish keys).

yea *thup* is more like it...

as far as music, im deep into deep house/progressive...my roots are in the cheesiest of trance though.........lol

Sample the clicks and clacks and you got yourself a fat rythm to go with _alot_ of tb303.. Now Juho, doesn't that just sound yummy?

Back to topic: My AN1x had the same problem, but the problem with AN1x is that it uses really bad keys - probably a way for the synthesizer companies to save some money in the building process
