Anything you set up hardware wise (like mic levels and outboard gear sends) stay working when you switch to DAW mode. You can easily switch back and forth with the DAW button. Of course even in DAW mode you need to use your mouse for some things.
@quantum_ocean7 күн бұрын
Thanks for the overview. I'm quite curious to get one of these. Currently I have like five hardware drum machines: Analog RYTM mkii, Pulsar-23, Landscape Noon, BASTL B Drum Kastle, and Pocket Operator Rythm. The most "challenging" is the Landscape Noon. I've found it quite hard to get useable sounds out of it. I need to spend more time pairing it up with effects. The Pulsar-23 has a high "cool" factor--design-wise and concept-wise. But I just don't like the sounds that much. Maybe I need to dive even deeper with it, but on the whole I just find the kick to lack punch, and the snare and hhat just sound kind of meh. The Analog Rytm M2 is my far the most capable drum machine, but something is appealing about the DRM1 MKIV sound. Also, it's less than half the cost of a Pulsar23... I should probably spend more time squeezing more value out of the machines I already own, but after watching the Stimming review, it looks like a pretty instant-gratification techno machine! How do you feel about it 1 year later?
@EdgetoneStudios7 күн бұрын
It's interesting on the Stimming review because he goes on about how amazing the kick drum sounds, but the sound on the video is crap, you can barely hear the kick most of the time. As for how I feel about it, I tend to buy gear and the sell it if I'm not using it or if it doesn't inspire me. The DRM1 is still here and I'm not planning on it going anywhere. I've recently configured my Yamaha RX5 and the DRM1 to sort of a General MIDI note mapping so that I could trigger the DRM1 from the RX5 (since it sits right above). That's been fun. Maybe not the best drum machine for on the fly patterns, but at least I can play the DRM1 without firing up my DAW for it.

No, this board will not work on newer macs or PC using Intel Ice Lake cpu. And it had been years still no fix on this. Their support for their products is very poor from their past firewire Studiolive and even newer interfaces. Features, functionality and sonics is irrelevant when the thing doesn't work.
@EdgetoneStudios11 күн бұрын
I wasn't aware of that, but just researched the issue. Seems it was related only to the 10th generation Ice Lake CPU and a problem with it's onboard audio. Unfortunate, but no reason not to get a Studiolive if you don't happen to own that particular CPU config. And frankly, if Intel produces a product that doesn't play nice with USB standard interfaces, I would replace the Intel product.
@wckoek11 күн бұрын
@@EdgetoneStudios Honestly, I really want to like the Studiolive. I think other than Behringer Wing and SSL matrix there isn't much console that work as well with DAW integration. I had get burned by their abandonment of support for last generation Studiolive in the past, and honestly build quality wasn't as good as other competitors and customer support isn't of much help. As for the Intel Lake, I think it have taken them several years with no fix. I think with newer generation of PC or CPU they might abandon support again just like they did with older Studiolive. It is a shame because I really like the Studio One DAW and the workflow.

Personally I think it just sounds better than a Simmons. Sure it can do similar analogue drum sounds. But the Kick is really beefy and the clap is my favourite I've found. You know, I came this close to buying a set of Simmons Hex Pads from someone here on the Island, while I was finishing the studio. I had no idea I would eventually get the Vermona DRM1, but now I kinda wish that I had bought it. It was a Red set too.

Too bad it doesn't work for you. It's a great console but I couldn't fit it into my current studio either.

I worked with the Sony version of this console for over 15 years at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in Vancouver Canada. It was used in the Radio Drama Studio 3 and was an incredible console for that purpose. We used it for cast/actor recording as well as music and sound effects feeding originally an Ampex 16 track and later to a Soundscape Digital Recording System and finally a ProTools rig. We modified the console with four Hardy pre-amps but otherwise used the console as originally designed. The version of the 3036 we had had 26 channels mounted in the chassis. It was a great console and was reliable except for a power supply issue that caused a high frequency wine after about 16 years of use. The power supply was taken out of service and repaired and worked until the studio was essentially retired when the CBC did away with Radio Drama production in Canada. The console was sold to a local studio and to my knowledge is still in operation today. I remember that the automation package was a little limited but was fantastic for the time.

why do you use wdm 7/8 instead of 1/2?
@EdgetoneStudiosАй бұрын
I thought there was a good reason, so I just took a look at the Studiolive WDM Primer to refresh my memory. I believe I could actually use any of the WDM pairs so 1/2 would work fine. However, when I was first setting this up, I was looking at the list and thinking "I don't just want Ch 1 and CH 2 (or CH 3 & CH4), and I'm already using Mix 1 and Mix 2 for Headphones 1, but I'm not using Mains L & R for anything". So I figured WDM 7/8 which is default Mains L&R was the best choice. But at the time I didn't understand that really all the primer was saying is that the default digital routing for WDM 1-8 is a "copy of" CH 1-4, Mix 1-2, and Mains L&R, and that I could "replace" those copies with whatever I wanted. The other reason was that on a Mac, there were only 3 pairs of digital inputs, so when I switched to Windows, 7/8 seemed more like a "spare" to me. Long answer but the short reason is that the one I chose. ;-)
