Temporarily Own - Rm1x
2000-08-13 by Darren M Boudreau
Hi, Yes it's true. I went to Guitar Center with my credit card and now I have this little beast here at home trying it out. Was kind of hard in the store with all the other noise going on. I'm trying to read the damn manual. I fell asleep while doing so. I really hate these Yamaha manuals. And why the bloody hell don't they have tutorials. That would be a huge bonus in my opinion. Oh well. It's a pretty funky little gadget. Not sure quite yet whether I'm going to keep it or not. While reading the manual and not retaining much I might add I couldn't help but notice that the pictures reminded me of some software trackers. I dunno why but they did. Anyway...I'm all Yamaha' d out. Yamaha computer speakers, An1x,Cs2x, and the Rm1x....Should I get anything else from Yamaha with the "X" extension....hmmm... what's left ?.....at this rate I could become a spokesman for Yamaha. Like they'd need another one. I should pick up an old Yamaha drum machine I spotted one day in a used music shop which I played with before long time ago...I think it was the RY10 or 30 or there abouts....I remember feeding it through a Radio Shack graphic equalizer and a reverb box out through a bass amp...sounded pretty destructive...oh I forgot to mention the Boss Guitar Distortion pedal as well...that was the destruction behind that actually... I think once I try to get the hang of this Rm1x thingie it could have that same potential...I hate some of the preset crap though as I'm not really into all this house,electro,whatever the proper names are for these sub genres which I've not kept up to date on. However, I like a few groups who have "borrowed" from these into the industrial genre to make it once more unique. Hmmm....maybe what I really should have done was grab a bunch of old drum machines, effects pedals, etc...chained 'em all together and screw this new tech stuff... $699 for the Rm1x !!! ... phew ... that's enuff for now ... I'll leave you guys to more important stuff... Anybody else here like Numb as well ? There's another interesting group. ________________________________________________________________ YOU'RE PAYING TOO MUCH FOR THE INTERNET! Juno now offers FREE Internet Access!
