Is the Korg MicroCkontroll that Pad thing that one can use to sample, 
like a MPC..maybe not.

I don't have much use for that yet.  i was look at the korg MIni 
koass pad.

 I do invest in a new thing every year, this year it's been a new 
Computer. 

But I might afford somethingelse if it is under $500.00 dollars. 

Right now  I used Fl studio and Kinetic 2.  Because of my brain 
ingury  I am  not the saavy at the keys right now.

But my new software  Kinetic 2 allows me to be very creative in a 
simple way.

Some may snub Kinectic 2, but I don't. It's really bring music back 
to me.  I  make really decent melodies and beats with it.  Then I  
track the Stuff I make  add Karma sounds.  

If  I keep going I'll be play my keys  by summer.

My computer now also has a problem indenitfying the in and out for 
midi. How can I explain, My midi capabilties work for FL Studio but 
not for my other applications.

I haven't found out why yet.  And I need schooling on midi in 
general, so I need alot of time to learn.

For now record some loops and melodies I make on my hard synths  and 
record it in my computer as a Audio/ wav file, for a track..

Sometimes I do write Beats with my Rm1x and the Melody, and bass line 
line with my Karma.

It's just easier on my RM1X to write Beats cause the time signature,  
the BPM are all laid out for me, and I can write a song Beat by beat/ 
not by note, I  don't have to guess.

That's easy.
