>> I insist: what the hell are this telephone lines? >> Julio. OK, Doug Wimbish promised that I wouldn't tell anyone, but his Cyberbass has an integrated 56K modem that dials out to the Internet and uses a proprietary massively parallel computer system secretly developed by him, Will, and Vinx. It runs a hybrid neural network/expert system on an several 8-way Cray computers to provide incredibly accurate note triggering. This way he can also access his rack of Emu Ultra 4 samplers for loop generation which has over 6 hours of available sampling capability in 20-bit stereo. It controls the integrated Cyberbass sequencer which is capable over 10,000,000 note capacity at 1/1,000 ppq. It also helps power the over 10,000 pattern arppegiator on-board the Cyberbass. Normally this couldn't be handled by standard network HTTP protocols due to line chatter, so they had to write a fully interactive piping data stream that integrates with a customized MIDI engine to handle these types of data loads over 56K. You didn't think that he could really ~play~ some of that stuff, did you? That's the real secret of how just three guys can sound like a whole orchestra! BTW, those really aren't Wavedrums up there ... Dude, it was a typo ... phone => phono = 1/4" mono jack <> RJ-11 Sorry to confuse you all. Doug.
