Hi there! First, you might be confusing me with somebody else as my setup consists of: - A3K - RM1x - Cubase (Mac) - JP8000 Anyways, I mostly program directly on the RM1x for live stuff. Use both song and pattern modeh. Now for a few of my songs that are DnB, I use Recycle + Cubase + the A3K to program the DnB part and then dumb that onto the RM1x as a SMIDI file in Song mode. Then live I trigger the A3k from the RM1x and improvise with the JP8000 + my pal on fretless bass. Must admit I have only tried this a couple times so far, kinda new to this live business so would be interested in hearing your ideas. Later!
