Disaster...
After all the work I did, I lost all my music settings and samples after a virus on my PC.
For that reason, I didn't come back again early.
Yes, I lost all the samples I did and all the drum patterns ... everything!
Luckily some loops I have saved in my Studio PC (where I make master and work with Ableton)
Doesn't matter cry now... is all gone.
All the backgrounds and textures plus the drum patterns and some tracks I did upload in the software were gone.

I did get disappointed but I didn't give up, I have been looking to get an old laptop (IBM) only to work with this machine and finally be mobile to make live shows but... I HAVE A STORY FOR YOU:
Because I lost all my work after the virus in the PC, I did install the software again and restarted from scratch.
I want to take thing one step forward so I decided to look for an (OLD IBM LAPTOP) because the old IBM laptops have the right connections to use with the machine (as you know from chapters before, this machine only work with tower PCS because they have a PS2 connection and a normal soundcard connection. Without these connections the machine does not work, even using adaptors)

But... after I looked around for some time I found a solution to connect the laptop I have (Dell) to the machine, so I bought this on eBay...
Brilliant is it ???
It was... if the machine worked on it :( :( :(
It does work but for some stupid reason, the drum loops don't keep the same bpm !?
The bpm moves up and down, so is not possible to get the loops playing at the same tempo !!
I don't know why... All looks fine and plays fine but the Drum loops don't stay stable in the bpms!
I know is ridiculous but I really don't know why this happens!
I installed and re-installed the program various times but always the same.
I LOST MY DREAMS OF PLAYING LIVE WITH THIS MACHINE!!!
(Unless I can take my PC to the stage but that will look like a Jean Michel Jarre in concert)
No more live sessions !!
I did lose my expectations... I really want to make (WHATEVER) from this machine.
I always can make home sessions ;0) and that is what I want to show in the next chapter.
So...
In the next chapter, the truth will be revealed!!!
I will make a proper (Studio / Music) video.
This will be :
*VIDEO 0 - Sound introduction
* VIDEO 1 - Play the track live
* VIDEO 2 - Recording the individual sounds (drums/ percussions/ FX/ track)
* VIDEO 3 - Add the sounds to Ableton
* VIDEO 4 - Track construction
* MP3 - - Track already made
Let's wait for the best.
Keep an eye on the DaDa Project Blog, I will be updating this shortly.
