    Trying to figure out a good way to play live without a laptop... and not a DJ set either...

    Cutting up tracks and putting on a sampler seems right...

    MPC1000?

    • I have a live thin coming up soon also - have been racking my brains for best way of doing it as I am 100% logic - this is where ableton would be useful I know.fadein11
    • let us know what you decide on please.fadein11
    • Electron OctatrackJackson_Polyp
    • yeah octatrack.. i bounce all my tracks out as stems pretty much.. 4 stems for each track, so each pattern can have 2 songs for mixing..autoflavour
    • Octatrack, MPCs are daft if you're not finger drumming or driving a shit load of other gear off it.kingsteven
    • i throw a 303 in there for some live elements.. but yep,. havent played with a laptop in years.. its awesome.autoflavour
    • thanks guys - perfect will look into it!inteliboy
    • IPad shuffle, ala Dan deacon.monNom
    • MPC Live (new one) or Octatrack. If you go mpc1k get JJOS...but I'd recommend MPC Live if you're thinking MPC.sublocked
