Epic Machine! I just used my D1600mkII yesterday to record 2 celloist playing live. Super reliable, decent preamps, and the D1600mkII has USB to transfer the WAV files to my DAW when I got home. I bought an original D1600 back in 2002. It was a cosmetically damaged demo model at my local Guitar Center (a very early model that didn't have the CD drive). They sold it to me for $400. A few years later I bought a D1600mkII and connected them together (master and slave) to have 32 channels. I made some decent money doing mobile recordings with that setup. I eventually sold the original D1600 for a $200 and moved most of my recordings to my DAW. I kept the D1600mkII because it's great for mobile recording.
I wish these companies would make updated version of these units.. computers are cool to record to but the conveniences of those hard disk recorders would hit a good market right about now..
@@MikeRP3147 I feel ya.. but there's simply no market. You can pick these up super-cheap, all day long, on most auction site. The average 4-track CASSETTE recorder goes for 2-3x the price of an 8-track DIGITAL recorder.
Mixer issue not producer. A lot of instruments that aren’t bass have bass. Synths, pianos, acoustic guitars…a lot of non bass instruments have bass. Bass itself has treble information as well. So while it’s important to separate instruments for dynamics and tone control, it’s more important to cut frequencies from those instruments so they don’t clash with other instruments’ frequencies. Kick and bass should be neighbors but never sharing the same low end frequency. Bass is the hardest to do. That and true mastering. Mastering is harder 😊
I remember meeting Black Rob in Columbia Sc and he. Let me hear his upcoming single wayyyyy back in the 2000’s! It sounded good! And the next thing you know I saw him on MTV performing the same damn song which was awesome, right off the machine! I ended up getting the Yamaha AW 4416, which I still have, great vid bruh!
I remember these Korg D1600s back in the day. A buddy of mine had one and had his friends would come over to his house and we'd have a studio session. Aftee a while, the machine became unreliable. I remember one night I was there and we were recording a song and all of a sudden, the D1600 would freeze up or shut down (I don't remember which one it was) before he could save anything and everything that was record was lost just like that! BTW, I love that "Mint Condition" joke. It's funny as heck!
OMG that’s so cool AKAI had a machine with a Jaz drive! That was so high-end! It was literally a removable hard drive! I mean I would be scared to death I’d bump the thing and erase everything.
I had the Yamaha AW16g in the 2000's. It was cool but compared to what we can do today with DAW and VST it was very limited. But that was fun to move faders like a real sound engineer :)
It’s so crazy to see the same multitrack problem on this machine also be the same main problem on the Korg Kronos/nautilus. No multi track option to send it to a daw but it can sort of make multi tracks onto a cd like described here. It’s crazy how little Korg evolved.
7:20 All these things with DSUB outs… That’s this awesome Tascam DB25 standard where you get EIGHT balanced outputs (four stereo) and you just need the DB25-to-whatever adapter, but it’s the type of thing you could solder yourself. And there’s audio interfaces with it, and the PlayDifferently Model 1 has them. It’s legit nice, like a DJ can use a good analog mixer and just plug it in with one plug. And it’s balanced, so you can have noisy power supplies around it. But the big thing is that balanced lets you mix with a ton of headroom and lets you connect to crazy rack stuff like gates and compressors where you really need it. I think there’s a $50 Hosa cable that you could plug into the DSUB on one end and it has eight 1/4 TRS cables on the other end.
I STILL have this one (i bought it when it came out).. its sitting in storage.. can't move on from it because it has a ton of old demos on it. Afterwards i upgraded to Korg's 32XD Digital Recorder, which was a monster back then. Way better build. The D1600 did the damn thang for me for a minute.. but it started wearing down after a few years. The transport buttons started giving me issues, and the LCD would fade sometimes (i think the bulb inside was trying to die out). After this and the Korg D32XD track i moved to FL Studio (at i think around version 7) when it was Fruity Lol. fuhk'd with that until version 11, and then got on Native Instruments Maschine, where i still am today.. i loved Korg's devices.. which was a big upgrade from where i started with the Tascam cassette 4 track.. But if you want to be portable those big dudes ain't going to do that. & i got tired of connecting Hardware to Hardware and more Hardware.. it takes of tons of space, and the cost adds up. AND YESSSSS, the sound quality gave me fits. i would do a beat, add vocals, sh!t sound nice playing through the headphones.. BUT, the recorded sound quality was lacking in a lot of areas. & when i would do a Mixdown to tape to carry it around with me the tempo of the recording would always get crazy. i love working with VSTs, and Expansions (even apps on my iPad, slay what was being used back in the day. & it's crazy cheaper). i can set up my laptop and controllers anywhere. and the Sound Quality is light years better. you can export as a Wav, MP3 anything.. and it's tight. What you hear when recording, is what you get when exporting.. But those Cassette, and Digital Recorders are where i came from.
Depending on the sound your going for I feel you..But it has AWESOME effects!!..Still use them till this day..And the eq is ok..If your the type to like to fiddle with the eq's on the machine.
I use a Yamaha O2R with tc unity and two 8 channel digital cards which gives me 16 channels of 44.1k digital and 32 analogue channels into a couple of motu 828 mk2’s Sounds as good as any modern set up and is easy to use. You can have up to 100 ‘scenes’ or song settings and automation. With individual outputs both digital and analogue. All ‘old tech’.
i got 2 record deals on my roland Vs880ex i isolated every instrument an ran it along with my MPC 60 Live to a 8 TRACK fostex reel to reel recorder analog fat and banging
True reaction to the Mint Condition bit: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh..." *face palm* ... "Well actually, points for digging up a Mint Condition reference in 2024" 😆
i rocked my d1600 till it fell all the way apart .i made lots of use of the snapshot automation and i would sync a second d1600 we would borrow from a friend down the hall from us for big mixes
I come from 4 track cassette in 1981, and even that seemed impossibly wonderful for the time. I've gone thru an ADAT/mixer rig and a Boss BR-1600 and BR-600, and I thought those sounded damn great. I'm not remotely concerned with sounding like the produced-to-death sterile disco-duck hip hop 98% of releases have been for the past 15 years.
This device was basically already obsolete at release. Harddisk recording was already a thing in 2001 and back then I was already having way more fun making music with Reason 1.0 (although the first version didn't come with audio recording).
Yep, but the price of a PC that had enough performance for reliable audio recording was ridiculous for several years afterwards (at least it was here in Canada). Multi-channel audio interfaces cost a heap too. I just threw out a bunch of old music magazines and looking at those adverts we've truly never had it as good as we do now.
@@unclemick-synths I was running a 1500 dollar gaming PC back then with an excellent 150 dollar 24/96 audio card. Basically an enthusiast consumer system very capable of audio recording (although not multichannel). Unless you were a live music band there was already little reason to invest in gear like a Korg D1600. Heck, you could even make an argument that MPCs were already obsolete for what they had to offer.
Nah the 2480 had 24 bit 95k digital recording..A software editing program that made it like MASCHINE..A MONITOR..you could add more optional features like ADAT/AES..Meter bridge ..Analog Interface..The 2480 was CRAZY!!
this video is the truth about the difference in sound between the studio and home producer set up in the late 90’s early 2000s fa sho!!! I tried so hard to make my yamaha aw16g sound pro. lol. couldnt afford pro tools working at round table. lol
like subbed and shared as usual, this really has me thinking cause of all the drum machines i ever tried and apps on the ipad, the Korg Electribe has the best sound, like i don't even need mastering.
As a hardware freak, i have to say, for sampling going over 16 bits aint interesting, and for recording our styles of electronically/digitally generated sound, a good quality late 90's HD recorder that goes up to 24/96., i'm good, these units that you can get for cool prices if you dig da bay a bit are equiped with great converters compared to most sound card a homestudio "prosumer" can usually afford in nowadays that are rather more of "general purpoose" things. And some of dem have great feartures and options. Personally i own a pair of d 824 (fostex, i'm A TASCAM/FOSTEX GUY), these can record midi, play loops, bounce, etc, etc... okay i wouldnt use these if i was in intrumental asccoustic/electro acoustic recording that you'l;l want to edit. But for using drum machines, synths, and samplers, all working in our usual midi, these are perfect out of the board... OH THESE HAVE ADAT TOO, AND WITH THE P[ROPER CARD YOU CAN USE THEM AS A MULTI OUT SOUND CARD FOR THE computer..
@@DyReckProductions those d824, d1616, d2424 are really top notch bro, these things go up to 24bits/96khz, they are perfect, tascam and fostex are ythe kings for those things because they dont do anything else but home studio recording gear since prehistoric times. and these are the latest in time, just like the S6000 they have detachable faceplatyes, you need tyo by a special cable to do that but that's usefull too. and really they have that snappy sound good converters for that era used to have, very "in your face and precise imo" you need to get them when you find a cool bargain or makwe an offer because i'm not shure these sell that much, but for a producer tha't's a hardware freak; this is really a nice unit to get, with the hd's you have in them yuou can record 11 hours in 24/96. These are the perfect pal to the producer using samplers and synths, and if you are used to akai stuff, you will be at ho,mme, these are real easy to use if you're not after editing, but as we go in midi, we dont have instrument players fucking up and having tyo be edited... of course there are a bunch of units out there, but with those fostex rack series, you cant be disapointed, and cool deal occur every once anmd a while, these dont have the mixer though, personally, in nowadayu you find crazy vintage mixers for very low prices (compared to synth having way less work in them, from the same periods of time...). teac/tascam m series (m3!) are great for thast but these are sold for quite a bit these days, SOUNDTRACS mixers are magical for a producer, they go fluorescent with the eq and are hard to find depending on what you need and whre you are, and the old allen and heath "system 8" are somewhere between the two others i have one, they are noisy if you go hard on preamp though (but that's pretty usual for those type of units), a whole lkot of reggae, digital dancehall, dub, hiphop, electro was produced with a system 8 arounds, these were really nice and have a sound... my opinion though, these are the decision i took regarding recording my prods, and for dubwise too. but a fostex model 2016 can be great if you are not after getting a hudge mixer lol, very practical with those fostex hd recorders, same era, in rack aswell; perfect...
And now ???? What to buy ???? I'm lost... I have a MPCX but still learning it, I even don't understand if I need another gear to record songs, or if it's useless cause the MPCX can apply effect and having unlimited memory with a new SSD inside... I'm a beginner and still lost about that. All I can say is I don't want to use a PC, I just want to use standalone hardwares. Someone perhaps can give me advice please ? I thank you sincerely and I'm sorry for my English... (French here) PS: back in the days, I was mixing on turntables in 1995 to 200x, at that time I was recording my sets with a f@cking good SHARP MiniDisc Recorder... I LOVED MINIDISCS SO MUCH I SWEAR... Very good sound quality, VERY COMPACT DEVICES, very durable (for the 100% metal ones), SOOOOO CONVENIENT......................... Why MiniDisc disappeared so fast ???? WHAT HAD HAPPENED ??????? :D
I loved MINIDISC back in the day.. I had so many different color disc all over my car seats LOL!..Take your time.. So far your on the right track.. The MPC X is pretty nice and there are tons of videos out there to help you.

16 tracks, reverb, and no laptop. It still sounds awesome!
Yup!!
I upgraded my Fostex DMT-8VL to a Roland VS-2480 back in the day. I miss those days. Was more productive back then than any other.
BTW after hearing mostly mp3 these days, you gotta try blasting a CD in your car... The sound quality difference is MONSTROUS
Yes I definitely agree, I have Sade greatest hits and it sounds amazing in the car
Use high bitrate mp3 or aac, you won't tell the difference in the car's noisy environment.
WOW! GREAT IDEA...GONNA TRY IT!!!
For sure, CDs are incredible
Most people, me included, can tell no difference between high-bitrate mp3/AAC and a CD.

These are the perfect pal to the producer using samplers and synths, and if you are used to akai stuff, you will be at ho,mme, these are real easy to use if you're not after editing, but as we go in midi, we dont have instrument players fucking up and having tyo be edited... of course there are a bunch of units out there, but with those fostex rack series, you cant be disapointed, and cool deal occur every once anmd a while, these dont have the mixer though, personally, in nowadayu you find crazy vintage mixers for very low prices (compared to synth having way less work in them, from the same periods of time...). teac/tascam m series (m3!) are great for thast but these are sold for quite a bit these days, SOUNDTRACS mixers are magical for a producer, they go fluorescent with the eq and are hard to find depending on what you need and whre you are, and the old allen and heath "system 8" are somewhere between the two others i have one, they are noisy if you go hard on preamp though (but that's pretty usual for those type of units), a whole lkot of reggae, digital dancehall, dub, hiphop, electro was produced with a system 8 arounds, these were really nice and have a sound... my opinion though, these are the decision i took regarding recording my prods, and for dubwise too. but a fostex model 2016 can be great if you are not after getting a hudge mixer lol, very practical with those fostex hd recorders, same era, in rack aswell; perfect...
I believe Madlib also used this recorder..
Oh Wow..Ima check that out!
Helluva machine
Yes Sir!!
Great video 👊🏿👊🏿
And now ???? What to buy ???? I'm lost...
I have a MPCX but still learning it, I even don't understand if I need another gear to record songs, or if it's useless cause the MPCX can apply effect and having unlimited memory with a new SSD inside...
I'm a beginner and still lost about that.
All I can say is I don't want to use a PC, I just want to use standalone hardwares.
Someone perhaps can give me advice please ?
I thank you sincerely and I'm sorry for my English... (French here)
PS: back in the days, I was mixing on turntables in 1995 to 200x, at that time I was recording my sets with a f@cking good SHARP MiniDisc Recorder... I LOVED MINIDISCS SO MUCH I SWEAR... Very good sound quality, VERY COMPACT DEVICES, very durable (for the 100% metal ones), SOOOOO CONVENIENT.........................
Why MiniDisc disappeared so fast ???? WHAT HAD HAPPENED ??????? :D
Use the mpc to record. It's cool. It's got tracks and solid effects. Stem out into daw for the sauce.
Learn your gear before you buy something else once you know what you have you'll know what you need
I loved MINIDISC back in the day.. I had so many different color disc all over my car seats LOL!..Take your time.. So far your on the right track.. The MPC X is pretty nice and there are tons of videos out there to help you.
And Roland answered by MV8000 and then by the MV8800 …

I am going to tell you something to make you think... if Marty McFly time travels 30 years as he did in the movie but today, he would be landing in 1994.
